An Unlikely Meeting

Delta’s Magisterial Mission, Dreaming with Dogs, the Central Universe, Hanging with the Beats, and the Days of Rage

Druziel broke into my thoughts as we passed over a majestic third-density coastal city that appeared to be constructed entirely of white marble. We’d moved down almost imperceptibly into the higher astral regions so I might observe the mortal developments more clearly.

“I can feel your astonishment at what you are seeing,” she said gently, the cold greeting a thing of the past. That was a relief. But I was starting to see a pattern here. All the Watchers I’d encountered on my tour had only warmed to me after an initial cold shoulder. Even those I’d known well back on Jerusem were surprisingly cool. I was used to being poorly treated by the loyalists, but these were rebel Watchers like me. Then it came to me: those of us who retained our posts on the dissenting planets are being almost imperceptibly infected by the harsher emotions of the mortals in their charge. I’ve commented previously on finding this emotional thickening in myself, but encountering it in these other Watchers took me aback. I realized with a shock that they weren’t aware of these changes in themselves.

I tried to shield this last insight from Druziel, but she must have caught something of my drift. When she continued speaking in my mind her tone was tinted with nostalgia. “It makes me wonder at what you’ve observed on the other worlds you’ve been touring!”

And she was right. There was a distinct flavor to the psychic atmosphere of Delta I’d not experienced before—not on my tour, nor on Zandana. How shall I frame this? How can I describe an atmosphere that no reader will have yet experienced? I suppose the closest way of capturing it would be to say that the entire biosphere was approaching a delicate state of equilibrium; everything and everybody felt in balance, both with themselves, with the planet, and with all else. The mortals I could see, tall delicate creatures with long arms and thin necks, moved gracefully far beneath me as though blown by a gentle breeze.

“This will interest you,” I heard my Watcher murmur, and with that thought we were side by side, our backs against an elaborately tiered fountain carved out of a single block of what could have been the finest alabaster, yet it felt diamond-hard to my senses. We were on the outskirts of one of the small neat towns we’d passed over. Before us spread a wide grassed plaza, and over on the far side was a domed temple structure gleaming white in the bright sunlight. The temple and the fountain were so exquisitely designed and dedicated to the Mother Goddess that they, like the natural unspoiled features of the planet, also existed in the fifth dimension.

I really hadn’t been prepared for the beauty and peace that suffused the place. Was this really one of the thirty-seven rebellious worlds?

“It was the arrival of the Avonals that transformed everything!” I heard Druziel say with some pride.
