Cifer's Log

by Dagmar Yeoman

Doctor Cifer writes about his experiments, his life, and his friend. He writes about the dead ship on his shore. He writes about the wounded pirate girl inside it. He writes about the power he finds. He writes about what becomes of them all. A short story from 2017. I hope you like it.

7. Beyond

Beyond:

It flew through the void, across the ether.

A missile, a demon, mindless in its hunger, growing hungrier still. It darkened the darkness and stilled the stars. It sent it's blasphemous sounds through the dead of space and waited for a response.

It didnt get one.

Not pausing to consider why, the E.R.O.B. moved on.
