THE UNSEEN TAXONOMY OF SHATTERED

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

What if the people in a world are only seeing half of the world they live in? What if it was built after a war? What if the world becomes complete again? For a week, the sky hasn’t been their own. For a week, the dreams haven’t been their own. Ever since violet light started bleeding through Delhi’s sky to the whole world, the world has been falling into chaos. While scientists tried to solve the mystery, most people whispered the same terrified thought: This is the end or maybe The beginning of the end. In the midst of it all is Rio Lucien – an exhausted psychology student with too little sleep and too many nightmares. He doesn’t know it yet but things are about to get worse. The seal that held back the dark creatures has cracked. When the barrier between worlds shatters, it doesn’t just release monsters and destruction. Raw energy – Aetheris – disperses too. Before he can grasp what’s happening, Rio is confronted by a powerful being. She delivers a terrifying truth: the gate didn’t just break – it shattered into five stones. They’ve scattered across the world, possessing ...whom? To seal the gate again, Rio must hunt them down. With the powerful being time mysteriously running out and humanity in danger, Rio is caught in a desperate race against time. Will he be able to seal the gate? Save his family and friends? Save himself in the process? How much will he have to sacrifice to mend the world? And when it’s over, will he even be happy? Anyway, the hunt begins – but will humans be hunted by the creatures? Or will Rio be able to hunt the stones before time runs out

The most trending and strange topic today is

“Monster in dreams and a strange violet light in the sky, are they connected?

‘What do you think about this?”

A man started laughing upon hearing this, and started saying “we are living in 21st century, say something that actually makes sense”

Seems like that wasn’t the answer that man wanted. He frowned upon hearing this and went to another person and asked excitedly.

“All of the people in world are having this strange dream, where they are seeing monsters chasing them, and this sudden violet light in the sky, what do you think about this, are they both connected or just a coincidence or this is all the plan of foreign countries to confuse us or is there something behind it all that human can never figure out!!??

The person being questioned became hysterical and started spinning and clapping his hands and said “THIS IS THE MESSAGE FROM GOD, THIS IS THE END, HE IS COMING HIMSELF TO DESTROY THE WORLD HE CREATED, THE GOD IS UPSET WITH US, IT’S TIME FOR THE THIRD EYE OF MAHADEV* TO OPEN”, the man, as he finished saying it, laughed and started walking backward.

(Mahadev, a hindu mythological god, it’s said that when his third eye will open, the world will end)

He asked this to several people and the responses were:

“This is happening because of the change in environment and I never had that kind of dream”

“The government is making all of these up to distract us from real issues”

“It’s all because of human greed, we have lost our humanity, we have all become so selfish, the most beautiful thing that god ji made is human but, now it has tainted with greed and has lost all its beauty and made our mother Earth suffer so, to make everything right again, kalki avatar, lord Vishnu* is himself coming on earth and these are all the signals sent by him now, no one can save us, we have brought this upon ourselves.”

(Vishnu, a hindu mythological god, many people believe that, when humanity will end and human’s greed will reach its peak, lord Vishnu the preserver of this world will take his 10th form kalki avatar and then will reform the world and human era will end)

The man continues saying:

“I am Shubham, and we can say this is really the most talked about topic among folks right now, many people don’t seem to care about this phenomenon while some have accepted it as the signal of world end. But, the truth is no one really knows what’s happening, scientists are puzzled by the violet light in the sky trying to explain it with logic and data but seems like they haven’t found it yet,

While they keep shut about the strange dream. Is it simply coincidence or is it really the end of the world?” he said in a low voice, his eyes slightly narrowed, he quickly regained his composure, he smiled lightly and continued.

“It’s been a week now, and the mystery still hasn't faded. If anything, the curiosity has only grown stronger and stronger, to know more about this keep watching ‘daily and delicious news’ to stay updated about___”

Before Shubham could finish, Rio turned the TV off.

Rio picked up the juice from the table then stared at the TV. After a couple of seconds, he put down the glass and talked to himself:

“It's been a week since it started. Do they really think God has nothing better to do than spamming them with signs or dreams for seven days straight? It's not like God is showing up in their dreams. It's monsters showing up, chasing us down to hell”. Rio said in a frustrated tone then thought something, he felt bitter in his mouth.

“Monsters are showing up. Isn't that a sign in itself -- that they exist? That.....there's a possibility that, just like in dreams monsters will chase us, trying to hunt us”. After saying that, Rio clicked his tongue and rubbed his temples, ‘what the fuck am I saying’, he thought.

“…”

“It seems like fatigue is getting to me, otherwise why would I say such things” Rio mumbled to himself then he took his bag over his broad shoulders and looked himself in the mirror. He was ready to head for college.

With a thud* sound, the door closed.
