Good god!
I must return!
I must!

Over the past few years I've been working on an experiment in fan-fiction, trying to orchestrate a coherant selection of multiple fanfics, all tying together. I call it 'Alternate Histories', I look out for fictions with a historical plot so I call try to continue the story has much as I can.

Unfortunately I tried to post a teaster of a chapter and lost the original writting in the process, but I'll try again tomorrow or another time. So here is a basic overview of what it is so far.

A basic breakdown of the characters and the story thus far;
The egyptologist, Horace Bookker, is a British professor in hiding. Bookker was in contact with Dr Richard Watson, a fellow historian who was leading the discovery and expedition of the D'ni at a location known as 'the Cleft' in New Mexico. Watson's research alerted the US Government and shut it down as well as any trace of the exsistance of the D'ni, the expedition and the Cleft.
During the time, Bookker was at his own expedition to Luxor, at the site of Thebes - one of Egypt's capitals. He made his own discovery after finding a rare artifact and a secret anti-chamber below the royal palace, and discovered a 'Baghdad Battery', an ancient device which appeared to conduct a very small charge of electricity. After discovering Watson's fate Bookker returned to London only to begin to move to the United States to hide and help his friend.
The young historian, Hugh Prentice, became knowledgeful of Ancient History, it began in the Mediterranean and at this time he had a knowledge of ancient Mediterranean, Europe and Asia. Prentise has been around the world with his knowledge, Egypt, Greece, France, Germany, China and Japan to name a few. Prentice is developing a thesis for the University of Boston on Bookker's discovery and continues in attempting to unravel the mystery of the now Thebean Battery.

The two men meet in Bookker's hideout, an old abandoned factory, where he holds a tremendous library of books, all on the politics and great figures of the world and of all history. The books help to develop a ground-breaking experiment, during his brief discovery Watson transmitted notes on a technology by the D'ni known as 'the Art of Writing', the ability to cosmicly link a book to a physical world, using a descriptive book to set parameters to a world and a linking book as the vessel of transport. The experiment works! And the two men are taken to a world much like Earth. In fact, as Bookker explains, it is Earth but set in a different time period.
The adventures of the men proceed here; the first story - Bloodline of the Explorer - attempts to find Anna, a European living in New Spain. She is noted in the Uru fiction to be the first original 'explorer', finding the D'ni civilization at the site of the Cleft. But there is more to the story than this, a priveteer governing a Spanish fort which carries a black trade route full of native treasures, and an ulterior motive for the quest in the American badlands.
The second story - the Divine Rule - is the story I wanted to do most, as it is about ancient Egypt. After an attempt fails to discover the roots of the original possessor of an amulet Bookker finds in his Thebes discovery, the two men try to create a new link into Ancient Egypt and discover itimate details of the Pharaoh Atem. He is noted in the Yu-Gi-Oh! fiction as the spirit in the Millenium Puzzle, the amulet which Bookker and Prentise possess. They track with their cohort to the Kul Elna necropolis and the Pyramids to discover what the puzzle is trying to tell them, as at each stop the amulet reveals critical answers to questions not yet asked. And what does the age of Spire have to do with anything?
The third story - Kingdom of the Moon - is a little out there even by my own startards, but I'd like to try it and refine it some more. Prentise reflects on a strange discovery handed to him - a jewel - during a Yamato expedition by a strange girl with a poorly written note. After theorizing and experimenting the jewel revealed its secret as a jewel in the Sailor Moon fiction, the Silver Millenium Crystal. Throwing wild theories in the air over a singular reference the men look into linking to the Mongolian Empire in search for answers and the remotest possiblity of a 'Moon Kingdom', as well as a search for Prince Endymion. He is noted in the Sailor Moon fiction as the embassador of the 'Golden Kingdom' of the Earth. They take that as a reference to the state of the Golden Horde, the Mongol state in Europe. The discoveries along the way distraughts even Bookker, can man actually breath on the moon, or is it a cleaverly built age like Ahnonay?
The fourth story - Age of the Stranger - is an epic moment in the adventures of the men as they finally discover an age Bookker has not written or linked to. Surviving evidence of a linking book reaches the men and has the potential to solidify everything the men have been working on up to this point. A mysterious person in an unlikely location meets the men face to face and reveals the linking book, stunning the men rigid as she does - Myst. The discovery sets in motion the chain of events that gets them to track down the one man who in the Myst fiction helped the grandson of Anna, Atrus and his family to restore Anna's name and the D'ni people, the Stranger. Unkown to anyone the Stranger is noted in the Myst fiction as the person who helps Atrus in establishing Reeshalan, the new D'ni home, and for the most part Atrus' family against foes from other ages, his father Gehn, even his own sons. The stranger is finally revealed and his story finally told to detail, and one final twist to the story turns the knowledge of the Stranger on its head.

I will admit that story two is the one I wanted to write first, but I needed to establish the Art as best I could before concentrating on the next story. I'm still typing the first story, the second story is about done as well before typing, the third and fourth stories are still in a period of refining.
How is it?
