Like Flies - Book I - Acquiesce

The debate of whether we are alone in the universe has existed since the dawn of man. The line between reality and imagination is veiled in wishes, hyperbole, and fantasy. When the scope of all we think we know, everything we hold to be solid and real, fades into the intangible, the questions of proof and certainty are the least of our concerns. When the truth emerges into the light of day, when the force of awareness settles into the crevasses of actuality, the darkness bleeds through. The realm of our understanding can be found through a mirage of layers, bridged through connections of all kinds, including those between two women. With our understanding swathed in hope and filtered through faltered certitude, where does that lead humanity? The quest for knowledge runs through us all, entering our soul as we draw our first breath and lingering until our last. The preponderance of truth weighs on the hearts and in the minds of humanity as a moth to a flame, this quest integrating into the fabric of our DNA. But what if it is all an illusion? As the world begins to fall into a chaotic uncertainty, humanity begins to uncover that we are not alone in the universe. As the government scrambles for understanding, magnetic anomalies hit the scientific radar, and portend less than optimistic possibilities for our future. The compilation of this progress leads the way toward what some would deem our destiny. As the human death toll rises, those observing humanity must make a choice and choose to intervene for the sake of all of us, but at what cost?
