Be Careful What You Wish For...

We know that in the early years of the 21st century this

world was being watched closely by intelligences greater

than mans and yet as mortal as his own. We know now that

as human beings busied themselves about their various

concerns they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps

almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might

scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and

multiply in a drop of water.
