Healer



This novel was written by Linda Windsor in 2010. I began reading it on Saturday March 7, 2020. I finished it on Saturday May 16, 2020. The novel had 351 pages.

"Nature's magic (protoscience) was the knowledge and properties of the God's wonderful creation, a knowledge practiced by many Christian heroines and accompanied by God. But sometimes it was used for evil, and accompanied by dark magic."

Linda Windsor 

Healer p. 10

This quote illustrates the differences between the magic seen in the cosmos as oppose to what we, humans, create. It is mostly used to achieve the same ends.

"Bear in mind that druid in that time was a word for all professionals--doctors, judges, poets, teachers, and proto-scientists as well as priest. Druid meant "teacher, rabbi, magi, or master," not the dark, hooded stereotype assumed by many today."

Linda Windsor

Healer pp. 10-11

This quote shows the meaning of the word druid through time. It has many attributes which are relevant to todays living.

"While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things that are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:18

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 11

"And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and learning they might not understand." Luke 8:10

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 11

"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: And every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus  Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is the spirit of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come, and even now already is in the world. 1 John 4: 1-3

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 11

"I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abidth in me, the same bringth forth much fault: for without me ye can do nothing. John 15:5

Linda Windsor

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 26

"Heavenly father, this is more than I could bear. I have seen my husband off to his death, and now must send my child away to an unknown fate. Where are you?"

Joanna

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 26

"Death was the fate of anyone left in a madman's path."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 27

"Witchcraft was but its destructive force, the use of knowledge for the harm of self-glorification, rather than giving the Creator credit for creation's properties."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 31

"In the old person's demented thought, he'd brought justice to those who had betrayed him and stopped an enchantress forever. Sometimes as on this particular day, it pushed him beyond reason, for it was a reminder that their was one thing left undone. The heiress of Gowryns still lived Glenarden at least in his mind."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 37

"Faith is colder than witches milk."

Caden

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 43

"Love is magic."

Calden

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 44

"Time alone, without demand, was to be savored even in this ungodly cold and desolate place. All he had to do was keep the memories at bay."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 46

"Nature did not always reveal it's secrets."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 54

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 56

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 60

"The pull of Ronin's disappearance blanketed the very air and chocked any semblance of laughter. The eyes of men and women alike blinked away mists of grief as the story circulated the room in hushed tones."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 64

"Caden had yet to see a druid who could control the weather, the tales of the old be dashed. Predict it, yes. He'd seen a pious priest plying  God with prayer for favorable weather and studying the Heavens for His signs. The same signs that had spoken to the farmers and the fishermen since time began. No magic. Just absolute observation."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 66

"If God instructs His people to cleanse added man, surely the living needed for cleansing even more for their battle against the raging disease."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 70

"The voice had as much healing qualities as the hands."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 76

"Nonetheless images began to drift into his consciousness, like floating leaves in the breeze. One moment she sang to him like a sweet siren, bent on drawing him from the pits of Hades. The next there was the wolf licking his face, as though tasting a perspective meal."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 82

"For I assure you we do not make war without a good cause." 

Caden

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 94

"Caden hadn't seen it until now, but then Merlin Emrys hadn't intended to be seen beforehand. He was known as the master of disguise. Some claimed he actually shifted shape. Such was the difference between the minds of the educated noble class and the common folk, many of whom still on to their pagan gods and superstitions."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 95

"Though I remind you that the loss of any life is no trivial matter, milord."

Merlin

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 96

"The pursuit of knowledge in truth is an admirable quest. Our creator is so great that at our best effort, we shall never know all there is to know of His creation."

Merlin

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 96

"For Christ himself was no dictator. Though he showed us the only way to the Father, he gave the freedom to choose to follow that way. His is a rule of love."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 98

"Where was this freedom of choice to forgive or not to forgive, which Merlin claimed so boldly to defend."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 99

"You must give those nightmares to God or you will not heal."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 106

"I pray for my enemies daily as Christ encourages his followers to do. I pray for peace between the clans, that I might live a normal life beyond this cave. And I've prayed for you even more, that God, would take away your childhood terror and shame."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 107

"Why give me such a gift, if I must keep it hidden?"

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 122

"Accepting Christ as their Druid, or teacher, they gave up their royal trappings for sackcloths and the humble service of teaching the Word to the common man per his example."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 130

Brenna wanted to marry Rory and start a family.

"Feelings and heart are temporal, and often fickle. How does it measure with the eternal Word?"

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 142

"It's us that makes things complicated."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 143

"Not all dreams come true. Only those you see through the eyes of your soul."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 148

Brenna dragged Rory's food to take away his cravings but wouldn't do it again because she knew he would stay.

"Your Cymi forefathers worshipped creation. They saw the living God in the sea, the trees, thunder...all of nature."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 157

"Our God is so grand and far-reaching that are human minds cannot embrace all there is to know of him."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 157

"Jesus came to show us all, even the most learned of us all, that we can...we must...and it is through Jesus that we can do this. God loves everyone from kings to paupers, from the learned to the feeble--minded. God longs for you and me--priest, chief, warrior, women, and servant to walk and to talk and to commune with him. The God who made all wants to be our armchara. Our soulmate. He wants to be our father who loves each of us, even when we have not been lovable...or good...or just. He is a father who allowed his son to be sacrificed for all our sins."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 158

"Christ chose to be sacrificed--the last and only sacrifice that man would ever need to make--because He loved us and he knew that we never could follow the laws of God perfectly enough to have eternal life."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 159

Foal got shot when he went into town with Ronin.

Ronin was trying to get his life back and then bring Brenna as his new wife. Foal was killed by Cadens men because he recognized the ring and thought she bewitched him however she was so angry she dove into the water and swam away.

"Somewhere between This World and the Other World lies a place where the spirits may continue to journey forward or go back."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 201

"A gift for a season lives forever in your mind. As for you and your child, you will be safe for I have plans that you should prosper...and make my people prosper..."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 202

Caden killed Brenna. Ronin couldn't  believe it. Brenna awoke from the dead.

"For nature against itself."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 216

Ronin was fighting his brother about taking Foal's coat down from his room. He didn't want Brenna to awaken from her injuries to find the wolf skin hanging as a trophy. This showed tremendous growth in Ronin's character in how he cared for his wife.

"Love. Pure love. It poured from those words into her ears, filling her, forcing out her dread. Even her pain she realized as she pried open her eyes. At last it was bearable, not waiting with swords and hammers to beat her back into unconsciousness."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 221

Brenna was attending the Passover ceremony and waving to all the people and Dara was giving her their names.

"Listen to you, now, growling on such a day as this, Brenna admonished the dog in a whisper. I hold no grudge for you. Have you a name?"

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 223

Brenna

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 236

Brenna saw Tarlach as her mother did, under her disguise.

"A feeling of raw vengeance assailed her, poisoning whatever it touched. But just as her heart would burst from the beating, a pair of hands clamped on her shoulder, drawing her out of the living nightmare and once more into the light."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 240

"And the hatred dissapeared, destroyed by a surge of something stronger yet. Love. The press of her husband's body against hers reminded her of all that was warm and wonderful in the present. And all that would be. It was for that which she reached with her flagging soul."

Linda Windsor

Healer pp. 240-241

"Forgiveness. It was the only balm that would would work. Even as the answer came to her, Brenna sensed that dark spirits, clinging with menacing claws to this broken man-child, were digging in even deeper."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 241

"Father God, You have brought me safe thus far. I count on Your promise never to leave or forsake me...or mine. In the name of our Savior and Druid Teacher, Jesus Christ, amen."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 245

"But this is the child the church has  ordained for the peace of your people. A generation late, but the key nonetheless. They must become one with blood and faith."

Eagla

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 258

"The future belongs to God not her."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 259

"God does not give His chosen these visions or words on their demand, but in his time and manner. That is what separates prophets of God from those who use their gifts for personal gain. A soothsayer often has an answer  and, oftentimes, it's wrong."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 259

"Brenna is a healer, both of physical and spiritual body. She is trained after the ministry of Jesus and His disciples in Scripture and medicine...although she does not have as much learning as Merlin Emyrs wanted due to having to hide her for so many years. But God gives us all we need, even if it's not all we would have."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 261

"The heavens declare the glory of the God; and the fidrmament shweth his handiqnwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night night shewth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where there voice is not heard."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 262

"God speaks through us though the heavens and stars."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 262

"That is why the Druids knew who Jesus was, of his birth and death, before His disciples brought the news of his sacrifice and resurrection to the British shores. The heavens were like a scroll of all the world ordaining Jesus King of Kings, Messiah, Son of God. It was surer than Merlin Emrys' recital of Arthur's genealogy at his coronation."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 262

"You can trust God always, but you cannot always trust your feelings."

Ealga

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 264

"Now seeing ordinary people. even animals, through his wife's eyes,was seeing beyond the physical to an extraordinary, she made his whole world new,"
 
Linda Windsor

Healer p. 267-268

"There were some things even the gifted cannot heal."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 270

"Doing right is never wrong."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 273

Brenna was going horseback riding.

Merlin just appeared at a bat and rescued Brenna and Ronnin from a knife fight.

"For as many wonders of God's creation that meet the eye, they're are even more that do not."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 292

"A knowledge of nature's magic abused by a black soul. Faith I can feel the darkness. Take this from me, father. And from our king."

Gwenhyfar

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 294-295

"It is his path to perpetrator of this deed. This is more than a clan war, Brenna. If we cannot find and stop those who abuse such sacred knowledge of creation for their own gain and glory, the church itself is at risk. We all, Christian and Pagan alike, shall be washed in the same black water regardless of our fruit."

Martin

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 295

"We must all act according to our gifts."

Merlin

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 303

"We are all called to be God's servants, to do whatever our task as if for Him, and in that she excels within her hospitality."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 303

Tarlach almost died, but since he wanted to see Brenna's son, he went back to the castle.

"Prey. There were some things no amounts of nature's magic could heal. Herbs, stones, hands....they had there limits."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 320

"Druids and priests were exempt from harm, even on the battlefield. At least by law."

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 334

"When the Hebrew warriors returned from battle, they cleansed themselves physically and emotionally by spending a week away from they're loved ones until the battle rage was replaced with God's peace."

Martin

Linda Windsor

Healer p. 335

Brenna just saved Cadens soul from demonic forces

"It is your choice to make. Will you submit to God's will, or insist on your own? Will you remember your blessings or your rage? Will you feed the beast within you as you feed Caden's or starve it with gratitude for the miracles that have taken place in the last hours?"

Martin

ST: DSN: Siege

ST: DSN: Siege started I began reading this on January 2, 2013. It has 272 pages. It is by Peter David.


A changeling was on a murdering rampage aboard DSN. He almost got away on ship, but they traitored his ship in.. He transformed into a suitcase before discovered. Miles was going to perform some magic tricks at Molly's birthday, however she wanted a pony.

Keiko didn't like being on DSN that much, she missed the Enterprise. She was a botanist, not a teacher. There were enough quarters on DS9 to accommodate at least 3 times as many people. Nothing was wrong. Odo surprised Obrien after he was done. Obrien showed Odo the magic trick.

The wormhole was creating to many neutrinos when used thus making it unstable. The Wormhole destroyed a Borg Cube. The wormhole incident really upset Jake. Jake wondered how long DS9 could last against the Borg. Every time the wormhole opened Odo hoped his relatives would come through. A Klingon ship wanted to go through the wormhole Sisko sent the feed of what happened to the Borg cube, so they didn't go through.

They asked for refuge at Deep Space Nine. Mas Marko was the father. Rasa was his son. Aria was his daughter. Del and Lobb were his other sons. The station got another visitor. Glav, a Ferengi, just arrived at DS9.  He just wished to tell Quark about his success from the con Quark pulled on him.

Cisco was talking to a Cardassian, Grotto, in his office, simply because they wanted to maintain present on the station. Bashir came in and talked to Cisco about the boy, who might have Eddington disease, and made sure he knew how to track it and care for it. Marko Edemian rang a bell in the Prominode and that made everyone keep their distance. 

Sisko didn't want any trouble from them. K'olkr what the believed in was the way of acceptance. The kid looked weak. Bashir saved Rosa with his offer to accompany him with his duties. Marko was encouraged by the success of his son. Glav had come to the station to rub Quarks face with his success.

Odo told Cisco the Ferengi wanted to buy the station. Obrien was practicing magic tricks for his daughters birthday. Lobb was murdered in his quarters. Azria blamed herself for her brothers death. The two remaining children had a sickness. According to their religion Bashir was not allowed to treat them. Quark to Glav to ops. Kira was having them removed because they were an annoyance. Sisko made an announcement about the investigation going on.

Miles gave Keiko a phaser for protection. Jake was walking Dena, a  girl from school home. Grotto wanted Quark to be a spy for the Cardassians on DS9. They sent Lobb into space. Meta and Dena were new friends. Dina's mom was being harassed by a Cardassian. The Cardassian raped her. The Cardassian thought he broke her arm.

She was a shapeshifter. She enveloped Gritto, the attacker. But then had mercy. Jake Sisko went by Meta's quarters to check on her, saw blood coming out of the door and called for security. Odo went through the door which was locked in his gelatinous form

They knew it was a shape shifter. Sisko told Dukot about Grottos demise.
Bashir was talking to Azira about her son saying what if their son would remain dead and not go to their god and Marko lifted him almost killing him.
The Cardassians were threatening to blow the station up if they didn't get their way to find the killer. The killer might be an offshoot of Odo's genealogy, and he might not be, Odo didn't know anything of his kind, it wasn't good that the only relative he found was a serial killer.

Kelsi was the stations multi-faceted woman, she was in charge of many things, she was the premier traffic manager. She was the next victim. Sisko made a station wide announcement about the changeling murdering people.

They asked if they should take Odo

He said then the mystery would las longer, since Odo is the Chief of Security. Obrien asked to escort his wife home, Sisko asked if he was that insecure on the Enterprise and he responded no. Every where there is risk. Sisko made him a deal, he would escort Molly, Keiko, as well as Jake back to their quarters. Basher and his nurse made a code word, to make sure of their identity. 

Two security men found something suspicious Odo and Sisko beamed over. They found the murderer, Odo changed into his gelatinous form. The criminal went into the Holosuite unbeknownst with Quark and Gaz. Bashir was looking for Quark. Jake was bored in his quarters and went to search for Nog, who hadn't been to school for days. Odo turned into a rat to go into the crawlspace after the criminal and found Nog. Bashir entered the holosuite just in time to save Quark and Gaz from the criminal.

Odo transformed into a hawk to save Quark and Gaz. The shape shifter was in the form of Meta. He grabbed Jake. Odo changed into a mirror. Sisko shot and it reflected off Odo and hit the criminal changeling. Bashir blackmailed Quark by saying he would tell Kira and Dax about the holosuite program and he wanted the program erased as well. Bashir said he could scan everyone as they beamed down to Bajor, but he only had Starfleet's medical record and the station had so many other species.

Mas Marko was called to Sisko by Nog. Azira lost her son. Quark told her he went up to a Holosuite. Sisko didn't call for Marko. Marko called a warship to pressure Sisco to give up the guilty changeling. Rasa was unable to hold liquids and so he was dying in a holodeck program which was going to happen in a few months.

But the program didn't work as of yet Bashir hadn't got the permission to heal Rasa. When Bashir got back to the infirmary he found his nurse dead. Odo surprisingly wanted to come to Molly's birthday. The changeling was posing as the medical unit when it killed the nurse.

Gul Dukot came calling in. Dax offered to say she commuted the murders. Odo was crossed, he wanted to consider the individual a member of his race to finally find something about himself, but didn't want to be related to the mass murderer. Kira was talking to Odo, than Sisko called, and Odo got an idea.

Azira took her son to Bashir and he was healing him. Sisko and Obrien were very tired of the situation. Sisko had a new thing to deal with, the Cardassians were getting down his throat. Quark sold the bar to Rom, and was getting off the station. Glav was behind the shapeshifter, he brought him to the station.

Glav thought he killed Quark, but it was Odo. The Changeling killed Glav, said he was only killing people for fun. Odo and the other changeling were fighting and transforming. Both went in the walls. The changeling was hit by phaser fire and seeped through the crack under the door.

Odo lost the changeling. Odo and a security team were after him. He was getting away in a runabout. Odo jumped and got to it. Odo was left on the outside of the runabout. The runabout made the Cardassians fire at it. The Eddington were firing at the Cardassians because it was their war. The Cardassians saw that Odo was on the outside of the runabout.

DS9 had a tractor beam on the runabout. It was destroyed in the crossfire. The shapeshifter wasn't killed within the wormhole. He was ripped apart but still conscious. He was in help having to live with what he did forever. Odo was transported back to Deep Space Nine. The changeling had stabilized the wormhole. Marko excommunicated his wife for allowing Bashir to heal their son and divorced her. She was going to live on Bajor. Odo was Molly's horse for her party.

ST: TNG Maximum Warp


by Dave Galanter and Greg Brodeur Forever Dark 218 pages

Litre, a Romulan tried relieved Picard of command of Enterprise. He was a Klingon who rejected his beliefs and followed Klingon. Litre helped kill thousands of Klingons as well as others. T'sart was alive simply because he may have the key to save the Universe. Picard managed to fight with the Romulan.

This was only a holodeck program. Spock was controlling the simulation.   Riker, Troi and Data were trapped on a shuttle pod then were intercepted by a Romulan cruiser, which Robin Dax was hidden. Tobin wanted to become a Federation citizen. He was surprised to hear they were from the Enterprise.

Troi and Ruler were selling themselves into Romulan slavery to complete their mission. Medric saved Folan from a fight because he needed her to captain the ship. Medric is Tal'Shiar. He was planning to offer her membership. All she will have to do was destroy the Enterprise.

Kalor was under Crushers care. Lotre was dead but didn't realize it until he was in the turbo lift. Kalor was biologically intertwined with T'sart. Data has his emotion chip in for this mission. Tobin was giving Ruler and Troi pointers on being sold. Tobin took a ship and almost crashed it.

Ruler was bought by Nien. Tobin found Riker again. Nien was helping them find Troi. They found Deanna, she put the person who bought in the closet for getting fresh with her. Riker didn't want Tobin to kill the Romulans who were shooting at them because Nein showed him the good in the Romulan race.

Tobin got him on a Romulan space station where they reunited with Data. They took a ship and got into the dead zone. Romulans found something. Spock is trapped on a planet. The Tal'Shiar shot Spock's ship, then rescued him.

They found a planet which should have been sucked into a blackhole. The ships had waves of spatial distortion around them preventing sensors to work. The Enterprise crew degenerating. They went inside the sphere and their regeneration reversed. An alien computer came onto the Enterprise bridge and it was dimensionally scanning it.

It was scanning the ten dimensions of space-time. Spock believes the sphere and its makers are from a Type IV cavillation-one that can harness and manipulate power and energy from the universe. They were going to shoot the sphere out in hopes that its traverse would drain enough energy to prevent the universal destruction. Robert Picard acted in addition to Jean Luc and some of the dimensional universes were saved.

Picard and Crusher had a child, Rene. Geordi realized that the only way to save B-4 when found was to totally erase Data's memories. They planned to get shot in torpedoes to a planet to look for the missing androids. They had no escape plan They found Dr. Noonien Soong. Soong permanently erased some of his memory engrams and put them on the emotion chip so it was one of a kind. "What if this isn't a transfer of consciousness but just a duplication? What if the true me dies on this table and the me that gets up inside that android is just a clever copy? Will I really have cheated death--or merely created a new being that thinks it's me?" After Soong's consciousness and brain have been transferred to the android he blows up the lab and leaves the planet, Noonien was going around as Nomis Sutay, a young Trill. Noonien missed being stuffed after a meal and the affect of alcohol. His tastes have improved, but he can't feel the effects. He sensed he was being followed.

Noonien's talking to a Ferengi named Prak, about opening a casino on Orion. "Curiosity, loyalty, a need to be useful, a desire to live in harmony with all beings--those are all emotions. It's a motive. A reason to act. A sense of duty. An innate desire to acquire and share knowledge; a drive to improve himself." Noonien is searching for Julianna. Emil Vasilock, Noonien's mentor, is six thousand years old. Some of Noonien's aliases are Leonardo Davinci, Alexander The Great, Johannas Brahms, Solomon, Merlin.

Worf killed Kren, the leader of the Breen, but felt nothing. Soong programmed his androids to attack anything that appeared Breen. Soong and La Forge are trying to save B4. "Memories without sentience, knowledge without self-awareness is utterly useless. To make him live he needs the spark of life. That ineffable something that makes us more than the some of our parts. He needs a soul." Soong asked Geordi to put Data's consciousness into his body. Soong gave the new Data life and deactivated himself, Data was reintroduced to Picard. Worf left the meeting abruptly to deal with Choudhurys death. Worf was furious with himself because Choudhury died meaninglessly Data didn't accept his command rank back.

"Known as Section Thirty-One, the group consists overseen by civilian Federation officials as well as Starfleet offices all working beneath the notice of the normal chair of command. Supposedly formed more than two hundred years ago with a mission to defend Earth and later the Federation--from internal as well as external threats, this group repeatedly carried out missions and actions of varying scopes many of which would be considered against Federation citizens or acts of aggression against sovereign government both friendly and otherwise. The information purports that nearly every Federation citizen for the past two centuries has been under continuous active surveillance, their every action and communication monitored by an advanced artificial intelligence that calls through this collected information, ostensibly searching for other patterns or indications of threats. Section Thirty-One agents then acted on that information, to include murdering anyone deemed a danger then Federation or StarFleet interests. Again, all of  these actions were undertaking without any form of due process or accountability to higher Federation or StarFleet authority."

"Was it (Section 31) susceptible to corruption? Left unchecked and unaccountable, any group of individuals ran the chance of falling prey to darker impulses. While it could not be argued that it had on numerous occasions noted far outside the boundaries of Federation law, the results were indisputable."

Ozla Granic was journaling about Section 31.

"Instead attentions and energies would be focused on the heart of the matter: Section 31 could function with such unchecked abandon for so long and with such horrifying degree of success."

"Urelei, the artificial intelligence program at the heart of section 31's operation, had been active since before the Federation founding. Not everyone with ties to the group knew of Urelei's existence, a fact that few would serve to heighten the feeling of deception, betrayal, and helplessness sure to grip any sensible Federation citizen. No one will feel inclined to trust anyone, about anything."

"We make our own choices and take action based on what we believe is the best course, using logic and reason, but also emotion and even a moral code of some sort."

Picard and his crew were in the presence of a living ship that looked like Deep Space Nine.

Worf and the away team were on an alien vessel and just made contact.

The lights suddenly came on as the away team engaged the alien species in battle.

The away team was stuck aboard the alien vessel while another alien vessel was attacking the Enterprise.

They lost Lieutenant Chen and think she was beamed away. Chen awoke in a room, she made first contact with the Nejami. They communicated to her that they need help.

"Long ago, we perfected the science of converting matter into energy. Your transporter is similar in many ways, but rather limited when compared to our technology and is fraught with many risks that we have surmounted. For as, converting our bodies into components for data storage is just one part of a larger, sophisticated process that enables transference of our consciousness into the Haven, where we live as though we still inhabit our physical forms. Meanwhile our bodies are stored safely within the Osijemal's data matrix, just as they were upon conservation."

"It was a common misunderstanding among those unfamiliar with such matters that Vulcans did not poses emotions. On the other hand beginning in early childhood and learning overtime to surpass and disallow them from governing so much of their lives was expected of every Vulcan citizen. Indeed achieving as much distancing as possible or even elimination of such impulses was a goal of many Vulcans. Some devoted their entire lives to that pursuit, facing formidable challenges and emotions and focus their minds to their reception of pure logic. The Kolinar ritual was the pinochle of this rigorous undertaking. So difficult was it attainment that very few mastered the discipline and those who did were widely regarded as the most respected of all Vulcans."

"Whenever we try to figure out a way to marry up normally incompatible technologies, I get a little nervous. We can get a little creative around here sometimes and there's always a risk whenever you try to make a piece of equipment do something it's not designed to do."

"If your consciousness exists within the computer matrix, why not communicate with one another, without all of this?" Chen asked.
Alehugust replied "You are still thinking of Haven as a simple computer program in which information is transferred from point to point, and that can be deactivated and stored for later use. While this is true to an extent, you and I are very much more than that. We cannot simply be stored. Our minds are a far more sophisticated piece of software. They cannot be held in limbo or paused, at least not for any significant period of time, before becoming susceptible to irreversible damage."

The deflector array was down so the Enterprise couldn't go to warp and defenses were down.

The Osijemal's weapons were coming online.

Chen and 4 others materialized to ask for assistance.

"In a way Haven is a holodeck, but it's so much more. The Nejami exist, work and play, love and hope and dream, living out their lives just as they would as they were back on their planet. Only the computer keeps them from acknowledging the true passage of time, and their lives keep them occupied to the extent that it's easy to forget it's not real. But it is real."

"I refuse to believe that everything we've done for more than 200 years was solely due to some computer pulling our strings. I reject the notion that our values--the things that define us as individuals and a society--were given to us by a collection of ones and zeroes cobbled together by some engineer before there even was a Federation...My behavior wasn't dictated to me by a computer. I am responsible for the choices for the choices I've made and the actions I've taken for better or worse."

"Ultimately, most people will realize they believe stated it, Admiral; we remain free thinking beings driven by the fundamental right of self-determination. However, there can be no denying the preference of the Ureal program, and its impacts on many if not all the major touchstones of Federation history. Later, historians, scientist and unaccounted people across many different walks of life will spend years if not decades trying to put this entire affair into some kind of understandable context. Our very way of life demands that accounting, if for no other other reason then for taking such a painful look inwards at ourselves is the best strategy for reaffirming the values that we claim to cherish. That is how we move forward from this stain on our history and our legacy."

"The "Crelin Guild" in actuality is a rather loose association of salvage and other specialists. It has a leadership and a structure as well as a very long list of rules and its own regulations it makes genuine efforts to enforce, and we are pledged to abide by the various laws governing salvage work. However, it also employs a large number of contactors always represents the guild's best interests. Ultimately, the guild's main priority is receiving its share of whatever profits its ships garners after a salvage claim."

LaForge got injured repairing the ship and was beamed to sickbay.

Geordie just fractured his humorous.

They are sending Chen back into Haven.

"Could it just be her (Chen's) imagination ,or was there a fleeting yet still perceptible moment where she existed in a realm that was neither physical nor virtual? Was she alive yet untethered? A roaming consciousness?  A free spirit?"

"Working from a theory postulating the existence of other universes, the Sidrac designed and constructed a massive complex to test their hypothesis and attempt a bridge to another dimension. The scientist lost control of their experiment, and only with the assistance of the Enterprise--along with a version of the Enterprise-D from another dimension and time period as well as the crew of a Romulan warship pulled from yet another reality and era--were Ushealon and the Sedoc returned to their own universe."

Chen could read and understand the alien language because she was aboard Haven before.

"Humans in particular seemed to thrive in situations defying logic and even reason in order to fight their way to a desired goal. While it was intriguing to observe, it took on an even greater degree of fascination while he found himself participating in the pursuit of such a quest. Though his Vulcan instructors might admonish him for holding such a stance, he had grown to admire that stance in humans, and especially those he called shipmates and friends."

"Growing more comfortable with every passing second as Chen emerged herself within this astonishing interface to the Osijemel's computer, she was seeing greater detail and even subconsciously things that would have been alien to her moments earlier. Was it an effect of her brain's direct connection to the machine as this bizarre noncoporeal state?"

"Before panic could take hold, brilliant white, light exploded in Chen's vision, almost blinding her before shapes and colors materialized around her. Chen watched as the village courtyard and surrounding buildings solidified and stretched away from her in all directions, returning to forms she remembered from her first visit to Haven. Sunlight bathed the buildings as well as the vibrant trees and foliage filling the parks and undeveloped courtyards at the outskirts of the settlement."

"All around, far more Najami than she saw the first time she was here surrounded her. They crowded the parks as well as the roadways and walking paths weaving through the village. Unlike her initial visit, when everyone appeared to be going about for whatever passed for everyone lives now everyone--adults and children alike--seemed to be taking in the world around them with a sense of wonder. Many looked up towards the beautiful green sky and even it seemed brighter and more full of life than Chen remembered. So clear was her view for kilometers in every direction; she know thought she could see hints of other villages, mountains and even sprawling cities in the distance. None of it was there before, was it?"

"I believe staying the course we have set will allow us to weather this crises, and perhaps even come away from it wiser and proactive of the values we cherish and have sworn to uphold. If there are those who see this as an opportunity to format disruption on dissent, we will deal with them as appropriate, but not at the expense of the truth. Indeed, I believe when historians write about this tumultuous period, it is precisely how we conduct our search for the truth which will define our legacy."

Chancellor Martok sent them a message of goodwill as well as assistance without the authorization of the full council.

"There are those within the Empire who do not see things as I do just as I am sure you have your dissenters. I believe they operate from positions of ignorance and perhaps even cowardice as they seek to reap personal benefits from this chaos. Whatever their motivation they are detrimental to be for the greater good. For the Empire beyond the uncertainty of this affair has wrought, so to must the Federation. Let us work together to accomplish that goal. I await the opportunity to meet with you, Zha President, and discuss how we best serve both our peoples."

Picard, LaForge and Crusher went to Haven.

"The universe is vast, with room for all of us, and we believe it is the right of all beings to live without fear of enemies. However, the reality is that enemies do exist, but by coming together we are stronger than if we faced adversity alone. In time, after you find your new home, it is my hope that we might welcome you into our Federation, which represents hundreds of worlds and billions of people. We stand ready to greet you with open arms, and add your voice to ours. Until that day I wish you a safe and prosperous journey."

"The trouble with immortality, or as close to that state of being as technology will allow, is that it stifles any real incentive to make the most out of one's otherwise temporary existence. Within the Haven,  we lived secure in the knowledge that, barring extreme circumstances, there would always be a tomorrow and as many tomorrows as we needed to achieve our ultimate goal. It was uncertain, but perhaps ultimately detrimental."

StarTrek Voyager Incident at Arbuk

Outer Space is a dangerous place. This is proved by many shows. In StarTrek Voyager Incident at Arbuk which is by John Gregory Betancourt it is seen again as a dangerous, horrifying place. I  started reading this book on October 28, 2012 and completed it on November 1. This story was 214 pages in length.

Harry sensed an alien presence which had appeared eventually, which was completely foreign: with no eyes, ears, or nose. The ship had to find a way to communicate, it seemed like it was in distress because its star was going to explode.

Neelix forced Fairman to help him when Janeway called him to the bridge.
The aliens were called the Sperians. They were arguable, advantageous, haggling species, no one liked. Fairman burned everything, as Neelix dreaded. He only had an hour to make lunch, because the first shift would be ready for lunch. Tom felt more isolation in the Delta Quadrant than he did in prison.

The aliens had a space city not a station. 1312 died in the alien war so far.
Voyager was hailed to help stop it. Voyager was scanned by them. They don't know if the scan was a weapon or not. The city destroyed itself. They were going to transport a ship that went from the space city.

They beamed the alien to sickbay. The alien was an unknown curiosity to everyone, including the doctor. Torres found a working computer console within the wreckage. Voyager was scanned from the space city. Neelix brought food to the staff meeting.

Fairman, to Chakotay's surprise, was taking care of the galley. Chakotay speculated if they didn't build a weapon because it destroyed a vast percent of their population. Neelix and Torres went through the debris from the alien vessel to look for useable resources. Tuvok was attempting a mind-meld with the alien.

Tuvok's mind Meld was successful. His name was Sozoas. He was an engineer for the Tech Faction. He appreciated logic and order. Tuvok didn't know where he was. Torres found that someone sabotaged Tue ship and was still controlling it.

Voyager was under attack. Paul Fairman signed on with the Maquis for something completely different, and wished he was home. Janeway took Paris's place while he got Chakotay to sick bay. Tuvok awoke from the mindmeld unharmed. He told Janeway the thing was a Warp accelerator, but hadn't worked.

The Sperians attacked themselves. Their society consists of factions that harm others. Torres was on the ship searching for the black box after seeing her crewmates back to Voyager. Fairman was trying to start a black market with a replicater, the finest one ever created.

The alien, Sozoas, awoke. He remembered laying down to die, but now he was alive in sickbay. His species tell everything by air vibrations. Janeway, Tuvok and Sozoas went to the conference room from sickbay. Tuvok was argumentative with both Janeway and the doctor. 

They left Tuvok in sickbay. Their was a great personal trait switch to have some scans done for his weird behavior of arguing with the captain and doctor. They were going to communicate with Sozoas's ship. They were going to wait for Tuvok until they started communicating.

Fairman was installing a replicator. Torres obtained the black box. Fairman took the replicator to Harrys quarters and surprised him. Two more Sperians vessals appeared and were getting ready to fire. Voyager was going to power up the tube but not fire it. Neelix had no one eating the breakfasts he made.

The warp core needed to be overhauled. Sozous gave Tom her home coordinates and offered whatever supplies Voyager needed.

They pushed the warp accelerator to a white star to destroy it before they left. They went to the Sperians home world, had trouble getting supplies, but while everyone was at a picnic Neelix put together, he went to get the supplies. He bartered with the replicator which was taken the crew from the mess hall.  Paul said he would trade for the power coils Neelix had given him.

ST DSN Warchild

I began reading this on Wednesday January 20, 2016. I finished reading it on July 31, 2016. It had 272 pages. "A mind that wanders, could sometimes wander back in time." ST DSN Warchild Ensign Munson was escorting two Bajorean Vedecks from Bajor to the station because the children were dying. Taren Gis, one of the Bajorean monks asked Sisko for aid. The Bajorean request for medical assistance was responded to favorably by Starfleet. "The mind that doubts everything often finds the answer to nothing." ST DSN Warchild Sisko gave Kira permission to adapt fairy-tales to Bajorean life. "Leadership is not something that can be learned in the classroom. Being a leader means having to make choices that affect hundreds of thousands of lives." ST DSN Warchild Bashir broke up a fight on Bajor. He calmed down a woman whose baby was teething. He also assisted Belem with his foot while Belem told him how he broke it thanks to the Cardassians. Belems brothers were saved. Julian worked himself so hard, Dax demanded that he take a break. He went to clean patients He fainted, then awoke in a tent, with children who revived him. Dax was talking to someone from a moon of Bajor. Bashir and his team were being forced off Bajor. Bashir was avoiding his colleagues to avoid being recalled to the station. Bashir went missing on Bajor The child was on Deep Space Nine and going to stay with the O'Briens. Kira was asked to locate and recall Bashir. Jake and Nog were going to meet Cedra and play in a holodeck with him on the Promenade. They showed him the holosuites. O'Brien was called to a class because a hologram of Dukot was in there Bashir was found by the Bajorean band. The Nekor went missing. Kira and Sisko saved everyone from an explosion. Dejana was dying. Bashir fell in love with Jellika. They couldn't transport Bashir off Bajor. Kira, Odo and Cedra were trying to find Bashir on Bajor. Cedra joked about joining Starfleet and going back to DS9 as Kiras commander. Jellika was informing a mob of Bajoreans with lies against Bashir. The only person who could defend him was dead. He was beaten and almost fell off a cliff but Jellika saved him. Julien said he would of put something that would of incrementally killed the kids. Jelika let him be heard. She tricked her father into saying Bashir inoculated her against the virus. Julian was transported safely to the Ganges Julian found that a mitochondrion was causing the bacterial infection. "Some see as far as their own comforts and desires and no further." ST: DSN: Warchild The Nekor was Cedra not his sister. yeremiah@aol.com Yeremiah Hardt

A Love Revolution That Begins With You

Matt Kahn 

 "A modern day spiritual journey is a transition from fearing it all to feeing it all." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn

"By loving what arises, the pitfalls of energetic sensitivities blossom into the grace of spirit in action." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "In every breath you take love is always here. Throughout any personal encounter love is always here. No matter what comes together or what is pulled apart, love is always here. In your greatest moment of achievement or even your darkest hour of uncertainty, love is always here. Whether in the aftermath of tragedy or in the presence of your highest triumph, love is always here. When life is flowing, inspired and harmonious, and even if it's frustrating, annoying and painful or inconvenient, love is always here. When you feel alone or unsupported, love is always here. No matter what you understand and despite what you have yet to figure out, love is always here. Despite your thoughts regardless of what you choose or how you feel, love is always here. No matter what has been done to you or whatever you believe you have done to others, love is always here." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn

Whether hurt, heartbroken or hopeful it is not uncommon for loving yourself to seem like such a new experience that your subconscious mind has no reference point for it."

Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Each moment of vulnerability inspires a greater degree of honesty as your initial key to freedom." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "As the truth sets you free, one moment of honesty at a time, the spaciousness or relief you are able to feel in you body prepares you to be receptive to love in a brand new way." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "While it is both the universe dressed up as the character you've taken yourself to be, as well as the child in your heart awaiting your support and acceptance, it is the role-playing of the devine will that inspires love to come alive throughout the beauty of the physical form." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "For some reason it felt more important to help others feel better and contemplate the mysteries of the universe, than anything else the world had to offer." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "As love was offered, the more I recognized who I really am--an innocent expression of devine will and not a person in search of it." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "We are One in our essence but remain different as individuals. Between these two extremes your journey is revealed." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "With love as your guide every stage of your journey including the dissolving of ego and the resurrection of soul can unfold with clarity, compassion, peace and ease."

Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Radical honesty has nothing to do with confrontation, accusation or blame. It is a distinctive level of discernment in noticing the difference between projecting accusation and openly sharing what is felt in your experience." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Every single goal explored on a spiritual path effortlessly occurs as your nervous system is unraveled one "I love you" at a time." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "You always deserve more to love not less." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "No matter how anyone responds to your kindness, just by repeating out loud the words you didn't hear often nor never heard at all, you guarantee yourself to be the one who exits each scene of life more healed, aligned, expanded than the moment before." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Despite how anyone around you chooses to be, the differences of perceiving a life of synchronicity verses a world of endless stress solely depends on how you speak, breathe, move--from one moment to the next."

Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "A victimized ego cannot grasp that everything in reality is there to help it transform." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Beauty is found everywhere. In all creatures and life forces on heaven and Earth beautiful things unite and flourish." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "When your personality is inflamed, a willingness to love quickly becomes an impulse to blame in response to the way you or someone else is feeling." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "As the master of my destiny and creator of my reality, I accept that all contracts, agreements, and every formal truth that I AM They were agreed upon by an inflamed personality structure that I thought I was, but I now realize is not the highest truth of my being." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "I accept that neither the Universe nor my highest truth would ever or could ever hold me accountable to agreements made when innocently lost in exaggerated states of unconsciousness. I accept that I wasn't wrong to take such vows or make such agreements that were already in place. As I take the time to nullify them, I free myself and the world in the process." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "In knowing what I know I hereby nullify all contracts and agreements, known and unknown, seen and unseen, forgotten throughout all cellular memory and my subconscious mind. I also release, relinquish and surrender all former vows I have made as a monk or nun. This includes the vow of poverty, the vow of chastity, the vow of renunciation, agreements of victimhood, dependency, and martyrdom, as well as anything else believed, imagined, agreed to, or assumed by ego." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "What would it be like if you could go about your life, whether their is turmoil or harmony, without being limited by your experience of others." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Through each and every response your childlike nature invites you to cherish the majestic wonder of your heart, just as a parent embraces their own child." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "Moments of sadness can only be transformed through love." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "If there comes a time where you sense journey with another has come to an end it can only be the wisdom of the Universe guiding you forward into greater chapters of growth and expansion." Whatever Arises Love That by Matt Kahn "With love as your guide, you can be inspired to communicate in a way that brings your most treasured gifts to the surface, no longer waiting for others to be on the same spiritual page in order to show how much you care."

Two Front War

Being on the new frontier is always exciting. However wars are tragic. In StarTrek: New Frontier: The Two Front War by John J. Ordover and Peter David which is 152 pages long was began on Sunday January 9, 2014. I finished the book on Thursday July 8, 2014.

The Excalibur was fighting an unknown vassal.  This was its maiden voyage. The ship took on Refugees and was fighting with their oppressors. The Alien sector is at the mercy of scavengers. They needed someone from the cargo ship, which was besides the Excalibur to vouch for their good name and show they truly were on a mission of good will, to the other vessel.

The Excalibur encountered an alien vessel and communicated they would contact them in three minutes, however the Alien Vessel didn't respond. The channel opened and they said they were communicating with there lead ship. The Aliens were peaceful and never had war.
They were a scavenger race.

Part 2
Si Cwan

Zoran was going to lie to Excalubur about their status, but was advised against it by Rojam. The Excalibur destroyed the Marquand and the passengers were all going to the emergency pods. They were going to flush the enemy out. They believed they were on board. Kebron always thinks there is a problem, he says it saves time and energy and lives. They were being fired on by a Starfleet vessel. The runabout spiraled out of control. 

Ci Swan had a huge gash on her head. The Marqui ship was hit by phaser fire and destroyed. Si Cwan was dead. She was the only one on board. The others were on a station.

Burgoyne was duel gendered. Burgoyne was attracted to Seler. They met Tholians. The Tholians were going to kill them when they got them. Cwan was almost hit by a plasma burst gun, his jacket was though. Dackow was chasing Cwan. Ci Swan followed Keborn after her altercation with Dackow.

Zoran wanted ten minutes to hunt Ci Swan, then he gave Dakow permission to blow it up. Dr. Selar asked Soleta to come to sickbay, but neither her nor the captain knew why. The away team found a party that greeted them. This place reminded them to a Borg cube, however it was less organized.

This place was like a warehouse of all assimilated technology throughout the galaxy. 

Soleta and Selar were in sickbay. Then relocated to the doctors baron quarters. Dr. Soleta asked Selor to grant her Succor. Soleta released Selor from her promise. Selors mom discovered a crashed Romulan vassal and wound up bearing his child. Her father became a smuggler.

Soleta was a product of rape. Soletas mother's dying wish was that she return to Starfleet. Soleta met Voltok during the meld, but never met him in real life. 

Zorbon found a bomb but refused to disarm it, because he swore he would not get involved in the war. Cwan released him from that promise and Zorbon defused the bomb. Zorbon couldn't defuse it and the ship blew up. Hufmin asked Calhun for there technology in exchange of the Refugees Calhun brought. Laheera killed Hufmin because of that. They will kill the refugees once an hour until they cooperate. Calhoon ended by promising to blow up the planet once they were done killing the refugees.
