A contest with a pot of 3
shares + the SBD payout? You're in the right place!
I write a story, you finish it, you get rewarded. Everyone will get a reward and enjoy each other stories! Not bad right? :-)
Dear friends and fiction-addicts, week n. 7 has come and this time I want to challenge you with a script (call it framework or canvas or, simply, a fiction idea) and you can freely develop your scene/short-story from it. As anticipated you in my previous post, the canvas will be settled in the multicoloured and prolific world of Shintiara: a world of Magic and Time Paradoxes! of which my great friend is one of the authors.
I encourage you to create a post in your blog , instead than a comment, for more visibility of your great work. And now let's see the script!
The Script
Shintiara's planet once moved around a binary system of stars, but one of them suddenly collapsed. Shintiara is now a world over which a star and a black hole struggle for dominance, causing great temporal paradoxes.
Murya, the fallen star, is attracting the world towards a black hole where time and space will disappear and all will be swallowed by The Void. While Shintiara approaches the point of no return of Murya’s gravitational field, the so-called event horizon, unbelievable temporal paradoxes happen on its surface: objects, living beings and whole places appear, recalled from the past or from the future.
In short, in this fantasy-medieval kind of setting some totally out of place items (or even whole cities!) can pop out from nothing due to the temporal anomaly.
Precisely in this ancient world, on the brink of the chasm and in continuous struggle between chaos and order, appears an unexpected artifact: artificial intelligence XOO-711.
It comes from a distant future, where the inhabitants of Shintiara first learned to fear and then rigidly dictate a corpus juris for the restricted use of artificial intelligence, although they never gave up benefiting from this technology.
In that future Shintiara, after the apocalyptic incident remembered as "Arioch's singularity", no AI's production is allowed without the incorporation of a specific limiter, also called "superego".
Too bad that XOO's superego hardware remained there in the future.
I forgot to tell you: XOO presents itself as a sweet teddy bear.
For those that want to join the fun, here in details find how this contest works:
1. I write an unfinished fiction story
2. You finish it with your own a post or a comment in the comment section
3. YOU WIN! For next round, I will donate at least 3 shares, all to one or divided between more writers with the most engaging ending + Wednesday's post SBD PAYOUT will be rewarded between all the participants who won't get one of the 3 shares (I'm the unquestionable judge. Well, technically not me.. the bananafish voices within my head are).
It's so simple and, most of all, we'll enjoy our fiction ideas! Nothing is mandatory here, but voting and/or resteeming is highly appreciated!
What's next?
