Crystal Echoes of the Mountain...

Hoang Nguyen

Within the silent vault of Peakshadow, where gem echoers resonate crystals with whispers of the deep and avalanche survivors bear scars of the mountain's wrath, echoer Lira calls resonantly to survivor Bram, whose solitude hides a voice buried under snow. Their echoes, resonated in quartz vows and scar-kissed tones, call love—or trigger cascades of rocky despair. As they delve crystal-laced caverns and vault-bound ledges, echoed by stone guardians and scar rivals, Lira's resonant craft merges with Bram's survivor grit, revealing a mountain legend of echoed harmony. When a shattered crystal summons rockslides, they must echo the call to steady the peak. In the resonance of crystal echoes, where every quartz vibrates with memory and every scar sings of endurance, their resonant bond becomes the call that awakens the silent stone.

Sales Pitch

Philip K. Dick

Sales Pitch by Philip K. Dick - There are pushy salesmen and then there are PUSHY salesmen who refuse to give up... until they make the sale!
Commute ships roared on all sides, as Ed Morris made his way wearily home to Earth at the end of a long hard day at the office. The Ganymede-Terra lanes were choked with exhausted, grim-faced businessmen; Jupiter was in opposition to Earth and the trip was a good two hours. Every few million miles the great flow slowed to a grinding, agonized halt; signal-lights flashed as streams from Mars and Saturn fed into the main traffic-arteries.
"Lord," Morris muttered. "How tired can you get?" He locked the autopilot and momentarily turned from the control-board to light a much-needed cigarette. His hands shook. His head swam. It was past six; Sally would be fuming; dinner would be spoiled. The same old thing. Nerve-wracking driving, honking horns and irate drivers zooming past his little ship, furious gesturing, shouting, cursing...
And the ads. That was what really did it. He could have stood everything else -- but the ads, the whole long way from Ganymede to Earth. And on Earth, the swarms of sales robots; it was too much. And they were everywhere.
He slowed to avoid a fifty-ship smashup. Repair-ships were scurrying around trying to get the debris out of the lane. His audio-speaker wailed as police rockets hurried up. Expertly, Morris raised his ship, cut between two slow-moving commercial transports, zipped momentarily into the unused left lane, and then sped on, the wreck left behind. Horns honked furiously at him; he ignored them.
