Hello Grandmother,
Justice isn’t very common in the shadows, except when it’s the mighty over the weak. The concept of trials, especially public ones, aren’t necessary for those who secretly run everything. But next week starts the trial of Kelly Burke, the vampire accused of engineering the murder of Jakob Lawrence, and threatening my life. Funnily [...]

Hello Grandmother,
I knew there would be backlash from attacking a powerful robot compound. But now I think I might be in trouble. Someone stole my secrets. Or, to be more accurate, the remains of my belongings I’d work so carefully to hide.
Hiding places are not really that easy to find. There are already too [...]

Hello Grandmother,
I can’t say I was happy with the old status quo, but it’s interesting adjusting to the new one. I’m on a different side now. I can’t really see myself being able to work for the vampires again. Now I’m starting to see the underground protection forces that the Marksman has connections with. [...]

Hello Grandmother,
They’re tearing it apart now. All that remains in the desert. The vampires have moved in at night and now all the chard guts of the Shifting Sands are being separated and moved to more secure locations. Which I guess is what I wanted, though it doesn’t feel quite as good knowing that vampires [...]

Hello Grandmother,
Getting to the future. That’s something I think should be in Earth’s game plan. Not just surviving today, but building a plan for making things better tomorrow. That’s something I’m finally starting to see coming together.
The Marksman’s a crazy person. Whether or not he’s right about this super hero stuff, he’s off his rocker [...]

Hello Grandmother,
So the Marksman, who saved my ass yesterday, is in fact not imaginary. I had to blink a few times just to believe there is another human being in all of this craziness. Course, he may not be exactly human. He does, instead, claim to be the last superhero alive in this world. According [...]

Hello Grandmother,
The pieces on the board changed last night. I’m not a deeply spiritual person, but sometimes events go beyond luck. Sometimes you learn that life is not as hopeless as you thought. I don’t know what the future brings, but today, I can tell you there is nothing better than a soft couch to [...]

Hello Grandmother,
I can’t talk long. Things are getting out of hand, which is exactly what I was planning. I’m actually writing you from inside the Shifting Sands, which is a lot more run down than I thought it would be. Clearly the robots here weren’t keeping up as well as I thought.
And there are a [...]

Ok, I’m doubling down here. This message is for whoever’s trying to end my life. You want to kill me, come and get me. I’m serious. Whatever mystical forces are out to get me, whatever demons and vampires and who-knows-what have it in for me, for whatever reason, come and try and find me. I [...]

Hello Grandmother,
I’ve been on the run in the desert for a day now, and already I’m sick of it. I’ve grown too accustomed to living the life of luxury, the life that this age can afford me. If the old you were here, grandma, you’d kick my ass for going so slow. But I know [...]
