a Dream of Light
'Courage, temperance, wisdom, justice, patience...' LIAM HARRIS repeats the words sealing them into the depths of his consciousness, - finding comfort and solace. For one hundred and forty-nine years he has been trapped on the Earth, engaged as an immortal human, after unknowingly being injected with an anti-aging elixir along with the cell repair nanobots for disease removal. The pharmaceutical giant had developed "biotechnology cures" with the promise that humanity would never suffer from illness or disease. Ever. They said it was heaven on earth.
2030. The year he was changed. With guaranteed happiness.
But he is plagued by emotional torment, chained to the laws of gravity and craving to return to the Light. To freedom. To love.
He inhales deeply-that sacred breath humans have been gifted with, and stares at the glowing Earth energy mass beside his bed, given to him by Here Now. Here Forever. He thinks of MISS FINNIGAN then. She has what he wants. He can feel it, vibrating in perfect harmony with his being. It sings to his soul like agonized poetry, reminding him of what he doesn't have. And he wants it. Now. He wants to be like the people who wear the Life Watch, fondly known as the Death Watch, counting down the years, the months, the days, the hours, the minutes, the seconds, until a natural death.
Liam Harris wants to reach out to Emily Finnigin, but she is forbidden. Their DNA can never absorb each other, cell to every beautiful cell, harmonizing in a melody only they can hear, unless, he -finds the missing piece that will free him from his immortality.
He sighs. He will dream of Light. That is his only hope day in and day out, working as an elevator operator.
