Accounting Troll

Status: Complete

A Reticulan tries to persuade a captured Old Grey to change sides and support the Reticulan experiments for the good of their civilization. The Old Grey argues that the destruction of humanity would be too high a price for the security of the Reticulan people and that the Reticulan forces should surrender to avoid further loss of life.

After the Council of Earth signs a peace treaty with the Reticulans, many surviving humans decide to stick it out on Earth rather than collaborate with the aliens. This story details the tribulations of one group of survivors trying to establish a viable community, and the dangers they must overcome. The harsh response of the Reticulans and their collaborators to the arrival of a second alien race convinces the community that the Reticulans have no intention of honouring the peace treaty, forcing the community and the new aliens to find a way to overthrow the Reticulans.

In the months leading up to the Fall, a man is abducted by the Reticulans who perform horrific experiments on him. Meanwhile, a secret cabal working at the Area-51 base, the Majestic 12, is planning to release a deadly virus as part of their bid for world domination. This story is not for those who are easily offended.

Cunctator

Status: Complete

During the Fall, the national delegates at the United Nations agree that they should put aside their national differences and unite against the common enemy, thus creating the Council of Earth. During the fighting over the next few months, Phoenix Company retrieves the Dreamland files and makes contact with the Old Greys, enabling the Council to work out the background to the conflict. This story is unusual in that it focuses on the deliberations of the political leaders instead of the soldiers on the front line or the civilians struggling to survive.
