The Porphyrion Machine

When people in a newly prosperous town fall ill from a mysterious blood disease that doctors cannot cure or treat, one patient invents his own treatment. Genre: Science Fiction Excerpt: They went to visit him at night. They had to. They could not walk about by day, for the light of the sun was abhorrent to them. Those words were taken from the writings of a nurse who resided in the town at the foot of the hills, a charming and lively town in modern times. But steeped in accounts of strange—some say otherworldly—events from only a few generations past. CREDITS Story: "The Porphyrion Machine" Copyright © 2018 by Nila L.
