Robots in Love
While visiting the asteroid L35B05 I saw, in a museum set up for the education of human beings, an artificial crystal of great beauty. It was tetrahedral in shape and each glowing side projected a hologram full of quaint images of those odd beings that had dwelled in this asteroid a very long time ago. After gazing at the output of all four facets with wonder and admiration, I was filled with an urge to write a verbal equivalent to this crystal.I fetched the curator in order that he might explain the moving pictures to me and thus learned that by viewing the outputs in the correct sequence, a story was presented in its entirety that was actually coherent on its own terms. I now take the opportunity to dedicate my work to Evolution and Mutation. For no one has escaped natural selection altogether, and no one ever can, but as for myself I hope the effort will not impair my genes.

A book about glimpsing the terrifying truth of human existence and saying "no, I don't think so, perhaps not today." A book about letting go.

The New World of Warfare
As a consequence of an alien ship, now called Revelator, crashing into the war-torn Democratic Republic of Afghanistan in the year 1985, the world changed. Among those changes was the discovery of new technology which was reverse-engineered. One technological achievement that came from this copying of alien technology was the invention of Walgears.Short for "Walking Gear", a Walgear is a machine that became a weapons platform. Walgears started out as four-legged vehicles piloted by four human pilots that can jump but evolved into having one human pilot and having two legs and two arms, making these Walgears having the image of man and moving like a human being. Such a concept was once restricted to science-fiction stories but for the world that came about from the crash-landing of Revelator in 1985 and a Third World War that lasted from 1989 to 1991 that ended the Soviet Union and divided most of the world into supernational unions, such machines became a reality, especially for warfare.This short story anthology shows how Walgears have been used ever since they became a weapons platform. When one armed faction started to use Walgears in war, other armed factions sought to do so as well. This new world was made because of Revelator's appearance and other than this consequence, the image of war changed as well because it came to be dominated by a new generation of warriors who rode on Walgears into battle like in the days of men riding horses into battle.

Target Acquired
Recent advances in genomics and genetic engineering have led to a plethora of new insights and discoveries about human history, evolution, and migrations, as well as to the unmasking of fundamental information about people's unique traits - including their likenesses and differences, as well as their varying susceptibilities to diseases. Nowhere has this been more striking than in the field of infectious diseases, where human genomic differences can now be leveraged to manufacture transmissible microorganisms that can infect people selectively while leaving other people unscathed. The result is a rapidly increasing potential for the precise targeting of biological warfare agents against both adversaries and ordinary citizens alike. All that is necessary is to identify systematic differences in the genomic make-up of different people and societal subgroups to develop microbiologic agents that will target their unique genomic characteristics selectively. In the wrong hands, such capabilities can be used to control both the attitudes and behaviors of entire human populations, and to subjugate and conquer them. These new gene editing techniques mean that biological warfare agents have a new capability that permits person-specific viruses to be created and dispersed to find their "targets." Moreover, those who control the libraries of human genomic information can selectively target anyone, anywhere, anytime, for any reason - all without risk of traceability, accountability, or culpability. As early attempts to humanize viruses such as SARS (SARS CoV-1), MERS (MERS-CoV), and COVID-19 (SARS CoV-2) have demonstrated, guarding against the use of weaponized viruses for such malign control of individuals and even whole societies will be the next great challenge faced by humanity.
