The Eclipse of Thalasyx
A Chilling Sci-Fi Novella by Paul Michael Peters
When the Clavis Torqueo Monks of Gearturn intercept a mysterious beacon during their sacred pilgrimage, they unknowingly encounter an artifact from Thalasyx—a distant world that once knew perfect harmony through shared consciousness.
What begins as a routine salvage operation becomes a terrifying introduction to the Brotherhood of Mindshredders, telepathic beings who have mastered the art of memory manipulation. Their weapon isn't violence—it's conversion through carefully crafted psychological experiences that rewrite the very foundations of thought and belief.
In this dystopian thriller, Paul Michael Peters explores the fragile boundary between unity and oppression, asking whether true privacy can exist when minds can be invaded and rewritten. As the monks discover the tragic history of Thalasyx—a utopia destroyed by the radical concepts of individuality and personal freedom—they must confront an unsettling question: Is salvation indistinguishable from subjugation?
A haunting tale of psychological warfare that will leave you questioning the nature of free will, memory, and what it truly means to belong to something greater than yourself.
