Cartography is probably not as an exciting discipline as before, when all courageous men seek either glory or death in search for new frontiers in the age of exploration. As maps become meticulously developed and more detailed, cartography seems to be an extinct discipline, and was then unceremoniously replaced by the study of geography. Anyone significantly educated in this present day (or anyone who loves to read about different places in the world, for that matter) would know that the North Pole is nearest to the sparsely inhabited place called Alert, in the province of Nunavut, in the great country of Canada, (Greenland is also near) although the North Pole is not exactly part of any nation nearest to it. The same people would also know that the country south of Canada would be the United States of America, which is also a great country, although there are less glaciers and icy bite but more wide, flat plains where tornadoes usually form, something of a common knowledge that a phys...

Before everything was ultimately destroyed outside the Peaceful Enclosures, only the Involuntary Commission of Women was willing to live in one of the enclosures situated near Washington, DC. And since all instrumentalities of the government and everyone outside simply vanished without a trace, the Commission was the only government agency that survived this unexpected havoc of "sorcery." All people within the Peaceful Enclosures agreed to recognize the Involuntary Commission of Women as the lone representative of government, and they unanimously agreed to be led by what is left from the New World of America. While the Genesis Technology bacame an instrument of doom, the promised features of the Peaceful Enclosures have been a tremendous success. Now that they can easily communicate from enclosure to enclosure, the Involuntary Commission of Women began rallying the people (mostly women) to understand the matter that they are dealing with at this particular time. One by one, s...

Mr. Colbie Reynold, an English teacher in the State of New York, was giving a lecture on the philosophy of language, including the concepts of different interpretations employed in the scrutiny of the many works of fiction, novels, epics, poems, and other written forms of art. No, Mr. Reynold was not in the future nor the past. He is in the current time, in the year of our Lord, and in the present-day version of the United States of America. The problem in this particular scene is not the time line (or other time travellers), but an academic endeavor that his students will face during the administration of the examinations for the SATs later that year. "Literature is a form of human expression that allows the writer to communicate what he thought about the world, by sharing his own perception of reality, while taking or giving criticisms to social problems to make it more obvious, so that the reader will become more aware of the conditions that surround his existence." The cl...

It was not figuratively speaking that some narrative refer to the darkness that envelope the outside of the Peaceful Enclosures as "the curse," because it is so much true in the literal sense of such description. At first, it was not too obvious, and the darkness was as still as any other night could be, but as days and weeks pass by, they can hear something moving in the blackness outside the enclosures. Something was moving in the sea of voidness. Those who can sense the motion in the black space were certain that the movement is coming from something that is alive and organic, and nothing mechanical is involved, like a robot or a certain mechanism that is man-made that may be controlled at will. The initial assessment was that the moving organisms were coming from animals that are swimming in the darkness of space, although they are not entirely sure that the darkness was in liquid form to enable things of living nature to swim and flow through it. But there was something ...

 Not too long after the New World of America has implemented Genesis Technology, the vast lands of the country has been cursed and abruptly diminshed, except for the places where the Peaceful Enclosures has been erected to host women who are supposed to be vulnerable to succumb to all sort of biological illnesses. The environment that was once adorned by beautiful cities, breathtaking views, and lands of rare rock formations and mountainous terrain including the lakes and forests that make up the interior of the United States of America became a space devoid by its natural beauty. Now, only the Peaceful Enclosures are visible, and anything that lies outside the shield that separates the two spaces are gone into the oblivion of time. This is to confirm the fact that the New World of America has just been used to capture and trap this specific period of time for a more treacherous purpose. Later on from the future, as time travel has become successful and reliable, several places in ...
