iSmari's Tears

IZarli—an icy world and one of seven planets in a trinary star system so far from Earth that one of our probes sent out to study our own solar system took eight thousand years to drift there after it did its job and shut down to become yet another piece of space junk. That probe crashed on iZarli, but by then, we had accomplished interstellar space travel to a degree where it now took a mere three years to get there. So, we landed on iZarli to retrieve our probe and discovered a species of intelligent beings going about their own lives and doing their own thing. What they were doing was experiencing their own Medieval Age with knights and castles and kings and queens, and to them, we were the aliens. We gave them our technology, but we couldn’t help them figure out who the notorious serial killer was who had been plaguing the kingdom for years, and we couldn’t stop a certain girl, iSmari, from thinking she was causing the murders through horrible nightmares she had suffered from throughout those same dreadful years. We also didn’t see the evil mOrnzet coming from the harsh and inhospitable Southern Wilderness to wage war on the opulent Northern Kingdom with her berserk ragtag army of blood-thirsty savages. iSmari’s Tears is a tragically romantic tale of life and love and the horrors of war and death, a science fiction novel destined to put a tear or two in the eyes of anyone brave enough, or curious enough, to read it.
