- His
- mission
- is
- to
- leave
- this
- planet
- and
- search
- for
- answers
- that
- can
- only
- be
- found
- on
- the
- planet
- of
- humanity's
- birth.
- But
- nobody
- he
- knows
- has
- ever
- seen
- a
- ship
- that
- can
- sail
- to
- the
- stars
- -
- the
- kind
- their
- forefathers
- arrived
- on.
Eetoo
- is
- an
- orphan
- caring
- for
- the
- small
- flock
- of
- sheep
- he
- inherited
- from
- his
- parents.
- The
- only
- one
- he's
- close
- to,
- Venerable
- Too
- Dah,
- who
- taught
- him
- to
- read
- the
- ancient
- tablets,
- now
- tells
- him
- he
- must
- find
- his
- way
- to
- the
- planet
- of
- Humanity's
- birth
- and
- find
- the
- golden
- tablets
- that
- will
- complete
- their
- knowledge
- of
- truth.
- His
- own
- dreams
- also
- confirm
- it.
- But
- how?
He
- unexpectedly
- meets
- someone
- who
- gives
- him
- a
- lift
- off
- his
- planet,
- and
- his
- journey
- begins.
On
- his
- search,
- he
- discovers
- how
- evil
- the
- ancient
- humans
- were
- who
- first
- left
- Earth
- to
- colonise
- the
- stars.
- Though
- the
- ancient
- Nephteshi
- Human
- Empire
- is
- a
- thing
- of
- the
- past,
- some
- alien
- species
- have
- painful
- memories
- of
- their
- atrocities,
- and
- would
- rather
- see
- humanity
- extinct.
- The
- paradox
- keeps
- Eetoo
- searching
- for
- answers,
- taking
- him
- to
- first
- century
- Earth
Other
- galactic
- species
- are
- more
- friendly
- to
- humanity,
- and
- Eetoo
- gains
- the
- friendship
- of
- both
- humans
- and
- non-humans,
- including
- some
- romance.
Think:
- Ben
- Hur
- of
- Science
- Fiction.
The
- parts
- of
- the
- narrative
- set
- on
- Earth
- are
- influenced
- by
- readings
- of
- first
- century
- history
- in
- light
- of
- the
- Dead
- Sea
- Scrolls,
- the
- Pseudepigrapha,
- Rabbinical
- sources,
- as
- well
- as
- readings
- of
- Shalom
- Asch's
- The
- Nazarene.
- Some
- study
- of
- Quantum
- Mechanics
- also
- helped.
- Such
- a
- combination
- of
- rabbis,
- Essenes,
- and
- aliens
- could
- only
- exist
- in
- a
- historical
- space opera.
