"From the right perspective, viewed at the right time, an observer would witness a disturbance in the light from the stellar backdrop—an anomaly." As always, thanks to Isaac Arthur and the SFIA team for the inspiring theme! Based on the SFIA theme: "The Dark Forest" Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlhHE2VA1ic If you prefer to read rather than listen or would like to read along, full text of this and all my Sci-Fi Weeklies are available though my Substack: https://perowe.substack.com https://perowe.substack.com/p/darkness More on this story: https://www.rowelit.com/darkness Support (greatly appreciated): https://www.rowelit.com/support Sci-Fi Collections: https://www.rowelit.com/collections-sf-shorts About this project: I am writing a weekly sci-fi story based on the theme of Isaac Arthur’s SFIA videos. It’s a crazy challenging timeframe to create a good short story in, and to do so publicly is even more daunting. I’m just hoping some good stories come out of this and I have fun writing them.
