life in the orion empire
Declaration from the Scientific Division of the Central Council:
“We the scientists, engineers, and programmers, on orders from Tyrantus and the Central Council of the planet Tyron in the Orion System, will undertake a project that is designed to monitor, program, and control all of the citizens of the Orion Empire.
The technology that is required to achieve the goals of this project will require that individually tuned, electronically-driven crystals be surgically implanted in the brains of all of the people who are in a Class II category, that is, not performing creative or Class I work, but only performing work that requires the memory function of the mind only. By controlling the basic operational frequencies that the brain uses to transmit and receive its neural information, we of the upper echelon of Orion will be able to control the citizens of Orion from our central control stations.
Shortly after birth, every citizen that is designated by their birth analysis as Class II will be implanted with a small crystal that is tuned to their own personal frequency. All of the people will then be required to consume certain food products which have been implanted with chemicals that will, upon absorption into the cells of the brain, emit electrical energies which then can be detected by the implanted crystals.
The implants in the brains of our citizens will then transmit frequencies out of the body. These will be picked up by an extensive network of receiving antennas and hidden amplifiers that will be placed in locations on the surface of the planet, as well as inside of all buildings, public and private, for the purpose of determining the thought patterns of the citizens of Tyron.
The people on the planet are to be monitored for their electromagnetic energy patterns. As these patterns are particular to the nature and type of thought and emotion that is occurring in the brain of the individual who is being monitored, they will provide us with electronic wave profile information that will enable us to assess, mathematically, the psychological profile, the physical health, and the mental functioning of that individual.
After an individual’s energy patterns are picked up and analyzed for their electronic content, a computer program will be activated that will compare this information with the information that we have already stored in our computers. If the individual’s patterns are not compatible with those that are in the data bank of the computer, a decision will be made automatically by the computer that the individual’s thoughts are aberrant, and that treatment is necessary to correct the thought pattern. The treatment will be made electronically, in a reversed feedback mode, from the computer back to the individual.
The decision as to the nature of the treatment will be made by specially trained overseers who have been carefully selected from only the oldest and most trustworthy families of the Orion State. They will have the responsibility of judging the nature and severity of the electronic feedback treatments that will be administered to the individual.”
Electronic Controls
“The implant system consists of three crystals in a coordinated pattern. These crystals are small, between 2 and 3 mm in size. One is to be placed behind the nose at the surface of the brain, and two more, constituting one pair, at opposite locations behind the ears. The paired crystals will oscillate their frequencies across the brain, and will monitor the individual’s brain activities when he or she is doing something with their hands. The remaining single crystal implant is to control the hypothalamus area of the brain, which is the transceiver and demodulator for the pituitary and pineal glands.
Sometimes, it will be necessary for people to have additional crystals implanted in different locations throughout the body, usually close to one of the ductless glands. The paired crystals at the sides of the brain communicate to all of these crystals.
BC:
The single main crystal that was located close to the brain’s hypothalamus region is in proximity to the anterior and posterior pituitary glands. These glands control the long-range metabolism and growth of the body. They also control the reception of information from the subtle energy body which is always in close contact with the material body. The main purpose of this crystal was to cut off the individual from any sense of guidance or moral judgment that might come from one’s conscience, and to replace it with electromagnetically-programmed information from the Central Council of Orion.
Because each crystal was cut into a slightly different frequency, everyone could be tuned into electronically and identified according to their individual frequency. This involved the application of an electronic microwave technology that was only slightly in advance of the one that is in use in today’s modern electronics technology (1993).
The Orion Empire used a vast electronic monitoring system, consisting of antennas, transceivers, amplifiers, and computers, to control its citizens. The antennas of the monitoring system were placed throughout the cities and countryside such that they were able to determine the location of every person in the society in a matter of minutes or even seconds. The advanced microwave electronics of this system, operating at frequencies in the hundreds of gigacycles, could simultaneously transmit and receive billions of individual frequencies from this extensive array of towers. The electronic information from these frequencies was fed into a master computer system that was able to keep track of all of the billions of people of the empire. The empire even had the means of transmitting and receiving limited amounts of information at speeds beyond that of light, so the people of the remote planets in other solar systems could also be monitored.
The Orion computers, however, could do far more than locate a person. They could almost instantaneously determine their energy patterns according to which area of the brain was in use at the time of monitoring. If individuals were operating with patterns from a section of their brains that was “off limits” to them, treatment could be beamed instantly into the brain via the antennas. The individuals who received the “treatment” signals experienced them as a mild form of shock, the result of which would be a blacking out or short circuiting of the operation of the portion of the brain that had been targeted.
If the controllers and overseer of the major families decided that the person under observation was operating in “forbidden” states of consciousness too often, or for extended periods of time, they could order that the person be brought in for questioning to determine the reasons for these persistent and forbidden patterns of thought.
In addition to monitoring, the Orion computers were programmed to send out small bursts of energy that would be picked up by an individual’s brain-implanted crystal. These bursts caused great pain to the person, and they were used to punish individuals whose thoughts were not conforming to those that the leadership had deemed as healthy or normal.
In the early years of this technology, the decision to treat the individual was made by the overseer, but as the data bank in the central computer increased in size, the computer eventually took over this task and the basic decision “to treat or not to treat” became automatic. Only the nature of the treatment was left to the overseer.
Treatment for forbidden or aberrant thought patterns in Orion consisted of inducing anything from uncontrollable pain to uncontrollable hallucinations into the brains of the individuals. This was done by reversing the electrical operation of the crystal implants and transmitting energy into the brain of the individual. When the correct frequency was beamed towards the implanted crystals, the brain cells began to misfire and malfunction.
In severe cases, applications of this technology caused the normal frequency patterns of the body’s cells, which occur in the infrared spectrum of body heat, and the color red, which occurs during the blushing of an emotional incident, to become scrambled and inoperative. As the cell’s frequencies degenerated down to the lower frequency ranges, the body’s water molecules began to dissociate or move away from the organic molecules that they were normally associated with. The lower frequency ranges were destructive to the living cells, and their functioning was severely impaired as they began to wither and die.
In addition to infrared energy and the color red, human cells produce and respond to small amounts of ultraviolet radiation. These frequencies carry the operational instructions and intelligence for cellular communication. In addition to interfering with the lower frequencies, the electronic equipment of Orion also interfered with the higher frequencies, because the higher frequencies are related to the lower ones through the laws of frequency harmonics. Many people in the Orion Civilization were rendered robotic and unintelligent when they were treated by these electronic methods, including individuals who had once been of above average intelligence.
The basic aim of the Orion Civilization was to render individuals incapable of thinking creatively or intelligently. The leadership of Orion saw their civilization as a well-oiled, smooth running machine, where individuals were to serve the interests of the state exclusively. Electronically conditioned responses were programmed into the people with hardware and software that had been developed by the Orion scientists over the many tens of thousands of years that the civilization had been extant. All of these controls were instituted according to the dictates of the Orion Central Council, which determined the values of the society, and how best to implement their functioning.
Having designed some of the computer programs in my past lives for the conditioning centers, and having developed and applied the mathematical theory of the electronic equipment, I have through the years labored under its reflection into my own subconscious mind. I have been, for many years, unable to make use of my full faculties and skills, as I have been unconsciously afraid of where results might lead.
The Programs
Programming and brainwashing rituals for the young people of Orion took place at the conditioning centers. People of this age were led into a featureless room with bare walls. They were told that what was about to happen to them was for the benefit of Orion Society, and that it should be accepted as a part of the normal educational process that all of the people had to undergo. A helmet with wires attached to it was carefully placed over the teenagers’ head, and the electronic equipment was turned on.
In a short period of time, the initiate lapsed into a hypnotic trance and became receptive to suggestive messages stating that, “All is well with Orion Society. You should continue your daily work and studies, and you should not question authority or impose a personal evaluation or judgement on your society.”
The initiate was told that leadership was the highest position attainable in life, that leaders have earned their positions through hard work and effort, and should be obeyed. To emphasize the point, the initiates were subjected first to a series of frequencies that produced pleasant sensations when they were told how intelligent and benevolent their leaders were, and then to a series of frequencies that produced unpleasant sensations when they were told never to disobey them.
When the programming sessions were complete, the initiates were brought back to normal consciousness, led out of the center, and told to go about their business.
The pleasant sensations that were used in the conditioning sessions came from the stimulation of sensual pleasures, such as those of food and sex, while unpleasant ones came from areas that were associated with the survival instinct and the fear of death. These electronically-driven sensations were produced during the rituals, and were interpreted by the brain through the operation of the feeling and sensing cells of the sympathetic nervous system, in conjunction with the information that these cells had accessed from specific areas of the brain. These specific brain areas acted as a central processing unit or computer which had the power to access signals from all of the cells, and to reorganize or process them into different signals, allowing communication with the higher mind of the energy body.
Orion’s materialistic values were so important that a special conditioned response program about the fear of death was developed to control the nonconformist ideas a citizen might think.
The technology used on me has become a part of my own internal programming. Today I fear failure and nonconformity. I am influenced by others’ expectations concerning my own life, and am easily disrupted, berated, or brow beaten into doing what others want. These fears undermine my will to live and achieve, often leading to states of melancholy, frustration, and depression.
I saw insidious and destructive mind programming sessions on Orion. Hypnotic states extolling the virtues of the Orion Society became life threatening or left one psychologically impaired if one did not follow the way of life that had been ordained by the Orion Empire.
Electronically beamed frequencies interfered with the individual’s central nervous system, which controlled the heart beat and breathing. A person experienced a heart attack as the heart rate became erratic. Panic set in as the body’s natural defenses sent adrenalin rushing into the blood stream in an effort to remain alive.
Struggling against death, tapes were played to scare one from deviating in thought or action from what had been prescribed by the laws of the society. Today, fear of failure is nothing more than fear of death and nonconformity, an irrational emotion left over from Orion.
The negative programming sessions were often conducted with little regard for human life or mental health. Many times, individuals did not survive the sessions, or else became so fearful and psychologically impaired that they could no longer function in society.
Not succeeding in life was a violation of the Orion Code of Law and Ethics. To be accused of not trying hard enough to succeed in the material life of Orion was one of the worst things that a person could say about another person. Being unproductive was often treated as an act of treason against the society. Individuals who were accused were brought in for reconditioning treatments. Unfortunately, productivity was only judged in the terms of the values of a society that used the arts only for propaganda purposes, and philosophical and scientific thinking only to support a material goal. Success was better for the society than it was for the individuals in the society.
But the people of Orion were also rewarded for behavior that the society considered beneficial. Many types of sensual programs were available that caused the natural biological system of the individual to experience the sensations of drugs of all types, sexual pleasures and perversions, death-defying thrills, and loud, pounding music that made one insensate.
The program of conditioning people that has been described was one of many that had the effect of turning truth into falsehood and right into wrong in the minds of the people. A person could say or think something that was positive and correct, but if it was determined that it ran against the interests of the Orion Empire, it was twisted so that it was treated as something negative and evil.
Transformation
So what was done to others, unto ourselves we must accept,
An understanding is given and transformation occurs,
Domination and subjugation into consideration,
Obsession with self into concern for all,
Hate and anger into love and laughter,
Lust and desire into enjoyment,
Sympathy into empathy,
Judgment into discernment,
Ignorance into knowledge,
Criticism into analysis.
Forevermore
So that the truth be seen,
Tell it in a dream,
For when the Golden Eagle screams,
The spirit shall hover over the people.
The Social System
The Orion social system emphasized science and technology over art and music. Sciences flourished in education and the professions of art and music were subservient to the material needs of the system. Only those forms of art that were related directly to material expression were deemed necessary. Music was designed to induce either a soothing hypnotic effect, or be physically stimulating and overpowering. The architectural designs of Orion were bland, square, and uninteresting.
The suppression of artistic expression stifled the human spirit that sought to grow in the people. This caused an unbalanced condition to develop in most of the population. People became overdeveloped logically and underdeveloped intuitively. This was reflected in a physiological imbalance between the two hemispheres of the brain. This ultimately led to the development of a great many mental and emotional problems within the people of Orion.
If individuals expressed themselves in an artistic or intuitive way, it would show up on the electronic monitoring equipment, and if they persisted, they were in danger of being labeled as a deviant personality. In these cases, they could be taken into the programming centers for any degree of “treatment” that was deemed necessary by the overseer and doctors, from very slight and infrequent treatments to very severe and continuous ones.
Most of the citizens of Orion were treated in a cold and impersonal manner, and there was no hesitation on the part of the security forces to take them into custody for treatments if behavior that deviated from the norm was noticed. A different situation prevailed for those who were in the upper echelons of the government, or in the scientific and technological services. These people had a measure of political power and influence, and they had to be handled differently if they became a problem. Some were exempt from constant monitoring, so the only way that they could be detected was by spying on them directly.
Orion society had many spies and spying techniques, and machinery. These spies listened and watched for any signs of a change in attitude toward the system. If they saw or heard something that they did not think was normal, something that indicated even a small amount of disfavor toward the government, a report was filed, and a dossier was begun on the person or persons who were under observation.
Treatments of these people involved all manner of psychological tortures, including being ridiculed in public, demoted in rank and pay, and being transferred to some far-off location. These people, including myself, were so dependent upon the good graces of the system that they usually responded to these simple punishments, and no further treatment was required. More drastic electronic tortures were used if the simpler methods failed.
It was necessary to preserve a measure of independence and creativity for those who were to fill the leadership positions, because these decision-making positions required some of those qualities for their successful execution. Just how much independence was to be granted the elite was always a matter of contention and argument amongst the leadership, for there were those in the government who desired very little independence for their immediate underlings, and others who argued for relatively more because the interests of the system would be better served. Arguments degenerated into personal squabbles and conflicts over the fate of close associates in the Orion leadership.
Orion was a place of fear and uncertainty about the future, and this fear distorted everyone’s mind. The fear was the fear of death, programmed into the people, enslaving them by denying them the constructive use of their emotions and their intuitive abilities. Only when faced with impending death, as in the battle scene, could a person overcome this programming. Under these conditions, a person’s internal system rose to overpower insights and revelations about the quality of his life. When these soldiers passed over to the other side upon the death of their material bodies, they often subconsciously sought to repeat the death experience, and so were reincarnated quickly as soldiers where they could once again face death. Often the profoundness of the experience left them with a behavior pattern that could be called a “death wish”, and they would go through life with little or no regard for their own safety.
A Battle in Space
Among many of the top scientific jobs in Orion, I was also a spacecraft commander in many of my lifetimes. In a lifetime that was similar to that of Zan in the Unarius movie, “The Arrival,” [sic: not the 2016 movie] I remember a scene from a violent and destructive battle during the days of the internal wars that eventually destroyed the Empire.
As the ship’s commanding officer, I remained in a condition of full consciousness (along with the other top officers), while the rest of the crew, sometimes numbering in the thousands, was subjected to a low frequency electronic wave that interfered with the conscious functioning of their brains. This put them into a hypnotic trance. Once under the influence of the trance, the crew would follow orders without question. This was a standard procedure that was used on ships that were in a battle situation. It had been deemed to be necessary because of the dangers of their situation. If the crew members had been aware of these dangers of the battle, such that they could die at any moment, they would perhaps not function as willingly in their positions, nor at as high a level.
The top officers of the battle cruiser wore suits that were made of special materials that absorbed electronic frequencies. The suits looked somewhat like a wetsuit. The frequency-absorbing material shielded them from the hypnotic frequencies that the lower ranking members of the crew were subjected to, and which allowed them to function normally.
A battle scene that I took part in about 500,000 years ago is described below. The “enemy” is another planet in the Orion system, and the battle was one of the many that took place during the Orion Civil Wars, which ultimately led to the downfall of the Empire.
“We’re moving into the thick of the battle, we only have time for one last laser shot,” I exclaimed with little emotion. “That last one we took from the enemy blew out our guidance system. We’re going to burn up in the atmosphere of the planet,” said another officer.
The command center is filling with an acrid, poisonous smoke from the burning of the ship’s plastic materials. Most of the crew is already dead, but there is enough power left for one more series of laser blasts. The commander orders a target search on the computers, but the report comes back that there are none that can be reached before the ship burns up in the planet’s atmosphere. He ponders for a moment, and then decides to wait for the possible appearance of a target on the surface of the planet. “It will be a tricky shot,” he says to his firing officer, who is sitting next to him.
“Yes,” says the officer, “We will have to wait until we are well into the atmosphere before we can find a target and shoot at it. By that time, we may have already burned up.”
The commander is silent. Everyone knows that they are experiencing their last minutes of their physical lives, but no one knows exactly what that means. Some think that they know what that means because they have been told certain things by their religious leaders, the priests of Orion. They remember that they have been told that they will achieve a position of glory in the afterlife by dying for the Empire in combat. Others are not so sure. Others do not think about it at all.
The smoke is so thick that you cannot see anything inside the ship’s command center. “If we (the command crew on the bridge) did not have self contained breathing apparatus, we would be dead along with everyone else,” I think to myself. The apparatus allows us to carry out our duties despite the ship’s problems.
The outside hull of the craft is beginning to melt as it plunges through the atmosphere. The inside is getting very hot, too. A target appears, however, and one last series of shots is taken at the enemy planet before the crash. No one loses his composure. No one expresses an emotion. The ship breaks up into pieces and crashes on the planet’s surface.
The Problems of Orion
One million years ago, the six planets of the original Orion Empire were at peace. The “Six,” as they were known, were part of the solar system of the Red Giant Star, Betelgeuse, in the constellation of Orion. At this time, the Orion Empire had attained its height. Material development was abundant, as the central planet, Tyron, administered the planetary system under the dictates of the Central Council. But what appeared as the surface life in Orion was deceptive, as the negative undercurrents were undermining the souls of the people and separating them from their own higher sources of intelligence and information.
The people of Orion went about their daily tasks in one of two states of mind, either hypnotized or frenetic. The situation in Orion was accurately depicted in the Star Trek episode about the “Will of Landru,” where the people walked about in a dazed, hypnotic condition for most of the day, but were allowed to express themselves in whatever manner they felt like for one hour at the end of the workday. In this hour, all stipulated sexual and emotional repressions were called off, and bedlam reigned. Normal sex became group sex, and finally, violent sex. At the end of the one hour of time, the orgy of sex and violence was called off, and people returned to their previous, robotic states.
This Star Trek episode is a direct remembrance of one of the worst times in Orion. During these times, the people of Orion walked around in a zombie-like condition, programmed and desensitized, while others ran about in a frenzy of activity, taking on what would be considered twice the normal workload. Hyperactivity and lassitude were the two conditions of Orion society. There was little calmness or steadiness in these times.
After thousands of years, and hundreds of lifetimes in these conditions, the souls of individuals became laden with aberrant frequencies, and were not able to function with what could be called a normal oscillating perspective between the super-conscious self, the subconscious self, and the ego. Intelligence could not penetrate this mass of aberrant energy, and the people began to develop all manner of emotional, mental, and physical problems. After many years and many lifetimes, even the normally resilient genetic code began to break down, and physical abnormalities became a permanent feature of their race.
The leadership of Orion took notice of this degenerating situation and set a program in motion that would discover its causes. A team of scientists was organized to thoroughly examine the large amounts of medical data that had been gathered over the years on the most severely ill of the Orion people. This data would be collated and compiled in the computers. It would then be studied by the top medical minds in the system. After that, a series of conclusions regarding the physical nature and functioning of these individuals would be reached. This data would then be compared with the data that was acquired from a relatively healthy group of individuals. The differences between the two groups would then show the scientists what was behind the problems of the people who were not doing well in the society.
The analysis between these two groups was possible because of the development of a relatively new science that was based upon the detection and analysis of the frequencies that were coming from the cells of the brain. These frequencies could be organized into definite patterns by the advanced computers of Orion, and the patterns, in turn, could be correlated with various physiological conditions. Our modern medical sciences are just beginning to reproduce this technology.
The scientists and doctors were led by a particularly brilliant and eclectic individual who in many respects, did not fit into the normal mode of an Orion scientist. He had done a great deal of work to develop the brain wave technologies that the scientific group then used to compile the report. When the study was completed, he and his associates concluded that the sick people of Orion were suffering from very severe energy imbalances between the left and right hemispheres of their brains. These imbalances made most of the people dyslexic to some degree, or they had manifested themselves into many of the body’s organs, where they appeared as diseases.
When the lifestyles and working conditions of the sick people were investigated, it could only be concluded that it was the Orion Society itself that was responsible for the illnesses of its own people. The people appeared to be normal in every way that the society could judge, that is, their lifestyles and attitudes were conforming to the desired pattern that the leadership had set as a standard for all of the population, and yet they were all becoming severely ill, mentally, emotionally, and physically.
Orion society was clean from a purely materialistic perspective, but its emotional climate had degenerated to the point where only unhealthy emotions could be expressed. This could not be seen by the common people because of their strong internal programming. These people lived their lives in a manner that was destructive to their physical and emotional well-being, but they were unable to change their lives because they could not see, feel, or realize this, and they became less healthy and developed more diseases from lifetime to lifetime.
Most of the scientists who took part in this study believed that its conclusions were accurate, but the senior scientists that they reported to were not certain as to its validity, because they knew of its implied criticisms of the Orion Society. When the political leadership saw it, they rejected it completely. The implications of the report were obvious, Orion society must change if it were to survive. But as far as the leadership was concerned, this was not possible, so the report was altered so that instead of Orion society taking responsibility for its self-generated problems, the blame was placed upon unseen organisms that were the equivalent of today’s viruses.
Most of the Orion leadership denied that there was any connection between the physical conditions of their people and the rigid social structure, even though many doctors and physiologists had identified these problems in the energy imbalances that their equipment had detected in the brains of people who were suffering from the effects of severe mental illness.
In our current society, some doctors are once again detecting and identifying the brain patterns that are associated with mental illness. In Orion times, many of the doctors and scientists who read the report broke away from the Orion scientific system. In doing this, they put their careers and lives in danger, as the system would not tolerate this type of thinking in anyone, no matter how capable their work might have been.
The Mission of Dalos
The subsurface, behind-the-scenes turmoil that was developing within the Orion Civilization did not go unnoticed by the spiritual hierarchy that was in constant touch, through frequency monitoring of the souls of the people. They felt the need and desire of the people for relief from their problems, and they acted upon these needs by allowing them to incarnate onto many of the planets within the Pleiades Star System. Once there, these souls developed into the spiritual leaders of these planets, and in their desire to serve others, organized themselves into a delegation that was to enter into the Orion Civilization and make contact with its leaders. The leader of this delegation was the incarnation of the Archangel Uriel, a man known as Dalos.
Dalos and 200 of his fellow Pleiadians journeyed to the planet Tyron in a large spacecraft of advanced design in the time period that was just described. Among the 200 individuals who made the trip were some of the most outstanding artists and scientists of the advanced Pleiadean Civilization. Upon landing, Dalos was placed in immediate contact with the leader of the Orion Empire, Tyrantus. In his many incarnations, Tyrantus had conceived the basic ideas of this civilization in his mind and, along with his closest associates, had put these ideas into effect by writing and executing the laws of the social system. The legal, educational, business, scientific, and security organizations were all integrated into a smooth-running machine. The function and purpose of the individual in this society was to become a part of this machine. The main purpose of the machine was to further develop and enhance the material nature of the society.
Tyrantus and Dalos had a series of private meetings. After these initial contacts, Dalos was then allowed to speak to the leadership of the entire Orion System. There were many tens of thousands of these top echelon people, too many to assemble in one place, so the speech was given to a select group who gathered at the main auditorium in the capitol city, and then rebroadcast to all of the other leaders via closed-circuit television.
One cannot say why Dalos was allowed to address us of the Orion Leadership, but many of us in the Scientific Division were told to carefully observe and monitor all of Dalos’ physiological reactions as he was giving the speech. This could be easily done with our sophisticated system of electronic and computer equipment. The only requirement was that the base plane frequency of the subject (Dalos) be obtained ahead of time.
The speech that Dalos gave before the leaders of Orion has been described in other Unarius books. As Dalos spoke, we monitored his electronic functioning to see what his frequency range and content was, for it was known that basic intelligence and intuitive abilities could be determined from the range and content of these frequencies. To the amazement of myself and some of the other technicians, Dalos was producing and projecting such high frequencies that they pushed the equipment off the dials. His frequencies were higher than any previously detected, and his intelligence and intuitive abilities could not be questioned, although their exact nature and content were not known, as we had until that time never detected them in any other individuals that we had ever tested.
The outcome of this history-making speech was that Tyrantus wanted the theoretical scientists to make up a report that analyzed all of the data that our equipment had picked up during his speech. The scientists did this, and submitted their report to him in a short period of time, but he rejected the report and said that it could not be true.
Tyrantus said that the report was faulty and that the data had to be re-analyzed and the report re-written. To accomplish this, he changed the entire organization and leadership of the Scientific Council that had produced the original report. He did away with the entire leadership of the Theoretical Division, which was responsible for the report, and placed me in temporary charge. He also promoted the head of the Applied Sciences Division, Linton, to head up the newly reorganized Scientific Council, which took control over all of the previously independent scientific agencies and divisions.
Tyrantus ordered Linton to take personal responsibility for the issuance of a new report. Most of the old scientists were demoted and reassigned. The Scientific Council sat with Tyrantus and the other top leaders on the “Council of Ten,” which was the top governing body of the Orion Empire.
As the new leader of the Theoretical Division, which had originally been one of the independent scientific agencies, I, too, was brought into work on this new report. Linton promoted most of his old friends from the Applied Sciences Division, including myself, into the top scientific positions of the Orion Scientific Division. The result was that applied and material sciences now took precedence over the theoretical sciences, and the society was not able to take advantage of the new ideas that the theoretical scientists came up with.
The new Dalos Report was a complete reversal of scientific truth, a travesty that was sold as propaganda to the Orion People. The facts of the situation, which indicated that Dalos had a superior intellect and intuition, were reinterpreted to indicate that he was, instead, a brilliant, but unstable individual, the implication being that he was insane. It was to my undying shame and sorrow that I participated in the preparation of this false report, so flushed was I with my new- found power and status amongst my peers. So often was the phrase “brilliant, but unstable” repeated by the Orion Scientists and their supporters in the propaganda division, that all of us became unstable and insane in our future lives, unable to live the lie that had been rationalized within our minds.
With the original Dalos Report, the scientists of Orion had a chance to advance their evolution by standing up for what they had been taught by the eclectic scientist who had come to instruct them from outside of their system. This person, along with his friends in the old Theoretical Division, had prepared the way for the visit of Dalos, by inventing a system of scientific analysis that would analyze the functioning of the brain so that the difference between inferior and superior thinking could be determined.
When this equipment was used on the Pleiadean leader, Dalos, it proved the superior functioning of his brain and, by implication, his mind. Dalos also had a superior spiritual functioning, but these frequencies could not be shown on the equipment that we had at the time, which could only detect the lower frequency functioning of the physical and emotional reactions that occurred within the body’s cells and molecules.
When the Orion scientists were ordered to rewrite the report, they immediately complied, so ingrained were they with the concept of obedience. Even today, most scientists are unable to apply any moral standards to their work, as they, too, comply meekly with the desires of the prevailing political system.
When scientists are confronted with a challenge, they usually react by seeking a solution that is based upon what they are able to subconsciously remember as having done in the past. Moral standards are almost never applied in these circumstances, so great is the need to placate their enormous egos, which seek the gratification that will be given them if they are successful in their assigned tasks. The amoral attitude of modern scientists has allowed them to develop such Orion distortions as nuclear and biological weapons, without any thought as to their possible uses. They only know that they must build these things because they have been told to do so. The reality is that they are doing these things because they have done them before.
The Pleiadians came into Orion because they had heard the cries of the souls of the people who were suffering under the tortures of a system that could not understand them, and which punished them because they were different. It was these people who Dalos had come to help, and when he saw the manner in which they were being treated in the incarceration center, he asked Tyrantus why he was mistreating these people. But Tyrantus did not answer Dalos, and instead became defensive towards any further questions, so Dalos did not persist.
After meeting with Tyrantus, Dalos convened a meeting of his fellow Pleiadeans. At this meeting, he told his friends what had happened during his discussions with Tyrantus. He stated that it appeared to him that their mission would only have limited success in reaching the Orionites because of the resistance that Tyrantus was putting up to Dalos’ suggestions. Many of his entourage became frustrated when they heard about the apparent failure of their mission, and suggested showing the Orionites what they could do by working closely with the Orionites. Dalos warned about the dangers of this approach, but allowed his friends to do what they felt was best. It would not have been proper to interfere with their actions.
Dalos knew that too close an interaction, without any concessions on the part of the leadership as to the importance of what the Pleiadians were saying to the Orionites, would only result in frustrations and failure for their mission, as the Orionites would not believe what they were being told (as Tyrantus did not believe what he was being told by Dalos), and would only regard their guests as curious beings from some other planet.
Ironically, the entire Pleiadean delegation of 200 people disregarded what Dalos said about getting too close to the Orionites, and they all became caught up in the materialistic distractions of Orion Society. Like the Orionites, they became infatuated with their egos and attached to power over others, and when they died and passed into the non-material dimensions, they were only able to reincarnate back into the Orion Worlds, where they remained until the end of the Orion Empire.
When the souls that had been in Orion were brought to the planet earth, the fallen Pleiadeans came with them, and to this day they remain with us as individuals with great talents and abilities, but with great Orion egos as well.
Science Gone Mad
The egos of the Orion leaders became so deflated that a program of destruction was implemented against Dalos and the Pleiadians. This program involved the creation of a subastral world that was an abnormal mixture of human and animal vibrations. These vibrations consisted of sexual energies that could be captured if a copulating couple were murdered at the instant of their copulation. The small release of fourth-dimensional energy at that time was then held permanently within large magnetic plasma generators, where it could then be directed into the minds of black arts magicians who had been trained to use this dark energy to project malevolent thoughts towards the people that the leaders had designated as the enemies of the empire. The leaders of these dark projects were none other than the fallen Pleiadians, who were now trying to return to their home planets so that they could conquer and rule them. They remembered that they were from these advanced planets, and that it would be an honor to return to them.
These “enemies” of the Orion Empire were the Pleiadians, and their friends, within the Confederation of Planets that existed in the same area of the galaxy as the Orion Empire. These friendly peoples had no trouble in throwing off the influence of these evil thoughts once they understood their origin, but the Orion people felt their influence through the laws of karma and cause and effect for the remainder of their existence as a civilization.
The top echelon of Orion exalted their material bodies, and developed longevity programs that extended human life. These included simple ones, such as organ transplants, even including brain transplants, and the constant re-engineering of the genetic code. Some of these did result in some extension of life, but these extensions were always accompanied by side effects that, in the end, were worse than the actual process of growing old, so they were abandoned in favor of a new project that came to be preferred by most of the people, that of “brain energy transplants.”
Scientists developed a process of storing existing brain waves in a computer and transplanting them into another person’s brain. Thus, the thoughts (as they existed in the brain only) could be transferred into the brain of another person. In this way, a person who had died could have his thoughts implanted into another person. Or a person who wanted to control a group of people, in a manner that was close to absolute, could do so by having all of them implanted with his own personal thoughts. Since a person in Orion usually thought of himself first, these implants would have the effect of reproducing these thoughts in the brains of others, so the loyalties of a person would be redirected toward the person whose thoughts were dominating him.
Brain energy transfers were also commonly used by many scientists to hook themselves directly up to their computers for the exchange of information. To accomplish this, a skull cap of organic material was actually grown over a person’s head. Wires that were imbedded in the cap were hooked to the computer, and a person would visualize an object, for instance, and the computer would draw that object holographically for him. A person could even think of numbers, and the computer would do any desired calculations for him. Needless to say, such a close and unnatural relationship between a person and a computer produced all manner of brain and mental dysfunction within the person’s real brain, his psychic anatomy.
Many horrible creatures were created in the science labs of planets within the Orion System, particularly in the days of interplanetary war amongst the member planets. These science labs were set up by leaders who had completely lost their senses, and their ability to think rationally. They were grasping at any idea or technology that might give them an advantage over their rivals on other planets, and no project was too bizarre or negative for them to try.
As war raged on within the Orion System, and whole planets were destroyed or rendered lifeless, the demented leaders moved their operations and governments to more remote and less developed planets. The people on these planets were enslaved, voluntarily or not, by their new Orion masters, who made them perform manual labor. But some of these people rebelled, so the Orionites had them exterminated and replaced with their own mutant creations.
The mutant creations of Orion were people who were degenerated, through surgery and genetic manipulations, to the point where they were severely mentally retarded. In this condition, they were unable to make any judgments about the nature of the work that they were doing, and could be induced to work on many types of dangerous projects, such as those involving the use of toxic and radioactive materials. They were also drafted to work in the mines and fields until they were completely worn out physically, at which point in time they would be killed off and replaced by more of the genetic mutants.
SPIRIT
To look within, seeking Spirit which says to only give in,
To be one with Spirit and to see wisdom and truth set free,
To search and long for the feeling of peace within,
But the quest is not complete until Spirit lives in me.
THE SENTINEL
The sentinel stands in outline dark,
while rays of misty sun mark,
scarred lines as in creviced rock,
on the face of the sentinel,
deep and stark.
Formed by time and thrust into space,
To watch ages pass this peaceful place.
He hears not the quiet sounds,
locked deep within, his spirit bound.
The Past Relived
Doing psychic work from January,1992 until the present, I became aware that the events that I was living in Minnesota were an exact reliving of events that had occurred a half million years ago in the Orion Empire.
These events tell the story of what happened on board an Orion Battleship that was operating in the Orion Empire at that time. The captain of the ship is myself (LoTranis), the temporary fleet admiral is KoLaarn, the computer systems officer is Jennet (InYat), the computer tech officer is DaMisch, the new ship’s captain is LoPaali.
Note on the pronunciation of Orion names: Most of the proper names that were used in Orion had prefixes. “Ko” and “Da” are examples of these. These prefixes indicate the extended family group to which the individual belonged. This system of designating proper names was similar to the “Mc” or “Mac” prefixes which are used by the Irish and Scottish peoples of Europe. These prefixes were actually pronounced with a long sound, such as “Koh” or “Dah”.
The admiral of the space fleet in this story is the sole ruler of a group of several planets in a remote corner of the Orion system. His name is KoLaarn. He has earned this position through many years of competition in the dog-eat-dog world of Orion politics. He is a member of a large and powerful family, and all of his closest supporters, advisors, employees, and family members are part of his government. He supposedly rules at the behest of the Central Council of Orion and its head, TyRantus. In reality, though, he is too powerful to be removed without resorting to force, and so if some of his activities go beyond the reach of his authority, little is said unless a serious situation develops.
KoLaarn undertakes a plan to expand his empire. He will attack and conquer another planet that has an advanced technology and, up until now, has been able to resist the power of the Orion Empire. The planet’s defenses include small, but effective spacecraft that are able to suddenly materialize right next to the much larger Orion craft, and use a small explosive device to blow a hole in the side of the larger, but slower Orion spacecraft. This usually cripples the Orion craft, rendering it useless in battle, but it does not do a great deal of damage to it, and does not kill many of the crew members. These are a humanitarian people, and they do not wish to kill, even in self-defense. However, they feel that they have a right to defend themselves from attack and conquest, and so they have devised these battle tactics in an attempt to minimize casualties on board the attacking craft.
The attacks by the Orion battle fleet have been going on for many years. Their fleet’s failure at subduing the people of this planet has become an embarrassment to the leadership of Orion. Kolaarn says that he can take care of the problem, and is given the authority and means to accomplish this by the Orion Central Council, which has the Emperor TyRantus at its head.
If KoLaarn is able to conquer the planet, he will not only be given direct control over it, but he will also gain great prestige in the central council. This will put him in position to take over from TyRantus when he either dies naturally, or meets political misfortune in the future.
KoLaarn is given command over a large fleet of Orion battleships, which have sufficient power to conquer or destroy any known planet. All spacecraft in Orion are under the sole command of their captain, but in battle situations, where several craft are being used at once and must be coordinated, a temporary fleet admiral is chosen from the list of several captains. KoLaarn is allowed to appoint his own admiral, but instead of choosing one of the existing captains, he appoints himself temporary fleet admiral. He does this because he does not trust any of the captains who have been sent by the Central Council of the Empire on Tyron. This is very irregular in terms of Orion policy, but the decision is allowed to stand.
As the ships prepare to engage the “renegade” planet in battle, several alternative battle plans are drawn up. One is a dangerous tactic that is only used in extreme cases. It involves the targeting of certain resonant areas in the magnetic field of the planet with the full power output of all of the ships’s fission-fusion power lasers. These lasers are millions of times more powerful than the ones that are used in our current industries. They are capable of boring holes deep into the interior of a planet from outer space. If these holes are coordinated to certain critical points in the planet’s internal magnetic field, a sub-surface resonance can be developed within the planet. This resonance can be amplified by additional energy until the surface crust of the planet begins to break into pieces. This results in earthquakes which destroy all of the cities.
This is a similar action that occurred when Atlantis was sunk “in a day and a night” by over-oscillating the large power crystal that was normally used only to generate electricity. If the power to the lasers is not turned off, and the resonance is allowed to build to its maximum point, the very core of the planet will be disrupted and the entire planet will crack into large pieces.
In order to implement the destruction of a planet, a directive from the Central Council and TyRantus must be obtained. In most battle scenarios, the planet’s internal structure is not disrupted as it is usually not the intention or policy of the council to go this far. The resources of any planet, human and natural, are too valuable to allow this, and only a few planets were ever destroyed completely in the entire history of the Orion Empire.
But KoLaarn had other plans. He was willing to destroy the planet if that was what was required for its total surrender to his forces. To accomplish this, he needed to remove the ship’s captain from command and replace him with someone who will follow his own orders. He finds this person in the ship’s fourth officer, DaMisch, who was in charge of computer operations and hardware.
The computers in an Orion spaceship controlled all of its functions. There was a separate computer that could only be accessed by the ship’s captain and his first three officers, known as the “command group” of the ship. This machine also had special codes for communicating directly with the Central Council, and for spying on all of the people who were on board the ship. Anyone of the command group officers could be commissioned to command the entire ship, and they all had to have access to this special computer. But this was not true for all of the other officers on the ship. They were assigned specialized tasks, such as the ones that DaMisch and InYat performed.
In order to fire all of the laser weapons in a fleet of ships simultaneously, a specially coded program had to be installed and run on the weapons computer. LoTranis had given KoLaarn access to this code, so he could now fire the weapons himsel,f if he could figure out how to run the computer. The command group knew that KoLaarn could not run the computers himself, as they were of an advanced and secret design that was only known to the command group officers in the Orion military. What they were not counting on, however, was that the ambitious young fourth officer who was in charge of the computers would run the weapons for KoLaarn.
KoLaarn had to bribe DaMisch into running the weapons computer for him. He did this by promising him a promotion to the command group of the ship once the planet had surrendered to his fleet. It would not be possible for DaMisch to achieve this rank in the normal course in his career as an officer, as his position as computer operations officer had been decided on years ago. He could only advance now by special decree, and even though KoLaarn did not have the authority to make this decree, he convinced DaMisch that he had been given this authority by the council, and that he could promote DaMisch into the command group of officers.
When KoLaarn made DaMisch the offer, the latter readily accepted, as he saw it as an opportunity of a lifetime. How much he thought about the fact that he would be violating regulations by taking orders directly from KoLaarn, and not LoTranis, is not known. He probably believed that KoLaarn had sufficient authority to command all of the ship’s operations.
LoTranis was standing on the bridge when the program was run and the planet’s surface was first disrupted, and then broken apart into thousands of pieces. For some reason, either because the power density of the combined lasers was so great, or because the interior of the planet was very fragile (or both), the planet broke apart in only a few minutes. Normally, this would have taken many hours or even days to accomplish.
The immediate reaction of LoTranis was to get his ship out of the immediate vicinity so that the planet’s disrupted gravitational field would not destroy them as it had the planet. He had little time to think about the other consequences of what had just happened, nor of his personal culpability.
Later on, after thinking about what had happened, he became concerned about the fact that as the ship’s captain, he would be held responsible for this act by the Central Council. His career would be in jeopardy unless he was able to tell the Council what had happened, and that even though he had violated their procedures in giving the computer access codes to KoLaarn, that he had not been responsible for firing on and destroying the planet.
KoLaarn had succeeded in removing the only planet that he had been unable to conquer in all of the years of his rule over his remote sector of the Orion Empire. By the time LoTranis and the Central Council found out what he had done, it would be too late for them to take action against him, as he would be back on his home planet.
But his plan did not go off without a hitch. After the planet had been destroyed by the coordinated laser blasts of all of the ships in the fleet, KoLaarn began to have trouble with various members of the crew, who no longer wanted to be controlled by his orders. Every time that DaMisch tried to give an order, the person that he gave it to would find some excuse not to obey it. Usually this would not result in any serious repercussions, as the ship was no longer in battle, and there was little to do but to maintain operations.
LoTranis and InYat had agreed to obtain all of the computer records that pertained to the destruction of the planet, and to forward them on to the Central Council on TyRon so that its members would know of the facts of the matter. As chief communications officer and ship’s commander, respectively, only InYat and LoTranis could send messages directly to the Central Council of the Empire.
After the council read the messages, they decided to send their own space fleet, which would relieve KoLaarn of his command, forcefully, if necessary, and take back control of the fleet that he had usurped, and then direct operations from then on from Tyron. When KoLaarn learned of what InYat and LoTranis had done, he became very upset and took control of all of the ship’s computers, not just the weapons and navigation computers, which he already had control of. This put a stop to all further communications between KoLaarn’s fleet and the leaders of the Empire.
To prevent spying and espionage by the crew members, who were for the most part still loyal to LoTranis, Kolaarn took full control over all of the ship’s operations and installed one of his own people, LoPaali, as second in command under himself. LoPaali was from the same extended family as LoTranis. He had left Tyron many years previously to go to work for KoLaarn on his planet. He was an experienced scientist of high rank in the scientific division, but he had little training in spaceship command and control, and he had many problems in keeping the ship going, and in executing KoLaarn’s orders in regard to the ship’s operations. This gave him control over the ship, but most of his people were not competent to operate a large starship, and there were many systems’ breakdowns and failures as they limped toward Kolaarn’s home planet.
Kolaarn had given DaMisch all of the power that he needed to keep the ship going, but he could do nothing beyond this low level of performance, as the entire crew was loyal to their former officers in the command group. They had decided to keep the ship in a low state of readiness.
Finally, a communication came from the Central Council stating that a battle fleet was being sent from Tyron under the command of Admiral DaSon. DaSon’s orders were to take control of KoLaarn’s fleet and, after doing so, to instigate an investigation of the events that had led to the destruction of the rebel planet. When the fleet arrived, Kolaarn was ordered to cooperate with this investigation, but he had no intention of doing so.
DaMisch and DaSon, like LoPaali and LoTranis, were from the same extended family. While those of the “Lo” prefix were known for their scientific abilities, those who had the “Da” prefix were known for their abilities with the computer hardware systems, while those of the “In” prefix had communications skills.
The computer systems of Orion were vast, and covered every activity in the Orion system. DaSon had worked on the government’s computers, which kept track of all of the citizens of Orion. These computer systems were under the personal command of the Emperor, as they were the ones that were used to maintain control over the people. DaMisch had taken training in spacecraft command, and had been commissioned as a computer officer. Ordinarily, these officers are not promoted to the rank of command officer, but because of his personal loyalty to TyRantus and the Orion Government, he had not only been able to attain the command rank, but in time he was given command of his own spaceship and the rank of captain.
This assignment was his first as a temporary fleet admiral. He was the least qualified captain in the entire space fleet of Orion to become an admiral. However, he had the best political connections into the Central Council and the office the emperor.
KoLaarn told DaSon that he would not cooperate, and that his ship was not welcome here and should, in effect, go home. DaSon, however, followed his orders and refused to go home or to break off contact with KoLaarn’s ship, and KoLaarn became worried about what was going to happen next. Would the ship fire on him? If it did, there was little chance that his ship would survive, as it was now manned by people who either could not or would not operate the ship under battle conditions. DaSon, however, did not know who was manning the battle stations on LoTranis’ ship, and Kolaarn was not telling him, and was also doing a good job of maintaining his bluff. Dason therefore decided that he would be cautious for the time being and not start anything.
After many tense hours of waiting, DaSon opened communications with KoLaarn and demanded that Captain LoTranis and the entire command crew be released and transferred by shuttle over to his flagship, or else he would commence hostilities between the fleets. KoLaarn quickly obtained information about DaMisch’s career from the ship’s computer personnel files. He learned that this starfleet officer had obtained his promotions mostly through political connections, and that he had had little experience in conducting hostile actions against other spacecraft. He concluded that DaMisch did not pose a great threat to KoLaarn’s recently acquired spacefleet.
KoLaarn, however, was fearful about what LoTranis would do to him if LoTranis obtained command of the fleet that was facing him, as LoTranis had a great deal of battle experience. KoLaarn decided that he had to eliminate the possibility of LoTranis taking command of the Orion fleet and attacking the KoLaarn fleet. He would hold LoTranis captive on his ship, but as a concession to DaSon and TyRantus, would offer to give up all of the other members of the command crew, including DaMisch.
KoLaarn also refused to send over InYat, as she had knowledge of all of the ship’s computer entries, including about what had happened during the battle for the planet. These were dangerous to KoLaarn, because computer records do not lie, and would reveal to the council the truth about what had happened. To protect his interests, KoLaarn felt that he had no choice but to keep InYat and LoTranis under “house arrest,” imprisoned on his own ship.
KoLaarn knew that DaMisch, having betrayed his captain and fellow officers, could not be trusted. If he had disobeyed his own captain, in time he would surely disobey his next captain. He also speculated that DaMisch would lie about what had happened in an attempt to cover his own tracks, and that he would probably blame the incident on both KoLaarn and LoTranis equally, leaving himself in the blameless position of only following orders. Although it was not likely, the council might believe DaMisch’s version of what happened when the planet was destroyed instead of the version that the other command officers would give to the council. In the end, they might never find out what the truth was, and this suited KoLaarn.
DaSon contacted TyRantus about the situation and asked him for a decision as to what to do about getting back LoTranis and InYat. TyRantus instructed DaSon not to push the confrontation any further. He had decided not to risk the destruction of valuable star cruisers, nor to risk a battle when the loyalty of the other ships in the fleet was in question. TyRantus accepted KoLaarn’s offer, temporarily at least. He would get his spaceships back another day.
After the Orion fleet left to return to Tyron with DaMisch and the other officers, KoLaarn set course for his home planet. Eventually, he released LoTranis and InYat under the condition that they would operate the ship according to his wishes, and that they would no longer make trouble for him by trying to communicate with the council or TyRantus. Now that TyRantus had made a decision about the status of the fleet, LoTranis and InYat were not obliged to continue their rebellion against KoLaarn, and they agreed to KoLaarn’s conditions, this for the sake of the safety of all of the ships in the fleet and their crews. Eventually, they felt, the Empire would take action against KoLaarn, but the Empire would not do this until they were certain of victory, and reasonably certain that they would be able to recapture their space ships from KoLaarn.
LoTranis bemoaned his fate as he sat bored in his small quarters on his former spaceship. He had only been following orders when he turned his ship over to KoLaarn, but TyRantus and the council would probably not see it that way. They were major political figures, and they would try to “cover their tracks” so that the blame that would be placed for losing an entire fleet of modern warships would not be attached to them. If they needed a scapegoat they would find one, and LoTranis knew that he would be the most likely candidate, as he was absent from the scene and could not defend himself. These were the “rules of the game” in the Orion Empire, a world dominated by politics that were unmatched in its depravity, corruption, and ruthlessness.
It was they who had trusted KoLaarn when they should not have. The members of the Central Council might blame KoLaarn for absconding with their spacefleet, but they would never blame themselves for what had happened. Their actions were understandable, if not entirely forgivable, as the Central Council had to maintain its control over a vast interplanetary empire, one that spanned hundreds of light years of space, and included over 100 planets. Managing this empire was no easy task with the technology and personnel that was available, and at hand, and the council members, many of whom were known to LoTranis, or who were even his relatives, had to project an image of power, strength, and virtual omnipotence in order to deal with the many different people who had been brought into the empire.
This was unlike the situation that would have emerged had a spacefleet captain like himself lost a battle. In this case, he would be obliged by the “code of honor” of the Orion military to accept responsibility for the loss, and to offer his resignation to the council over the turn of events.
And so LoTranis, alone and far from home, knowing that his career was over, and that even if he were able to find a place in the society of KoLaarn, he would never be accepted there, longed for his home planet and his family and friends. If he was finished as a spacecraft commander, he could at least spend the rest of his days in familiar surroundings on the planet TyRon.
At the same time, DaMisch, having been returned to TyRon and questioned as to his role in the insurrection and takeover of the spacefleet, was in unfamiliar and hostile surroundings. The Board of Inquiry into his case had determined that he was not telling the truth about what had happened during the interception of the spacefleet near KoLaarn’s planet. As a result of the inquiry, the board recommended that he be discharged from any further military obligations. This action was taken, and he was forced to fend for himself on the fringes of Orion society, performing ordinary computer maintenance jobs.
DaMisch would not have betrayed his home planet if he had not been certain that KoLaarn would follow through on his promise to promote him to command rank. But not only did KoLaarn not follow through on his promises, but he turned over DaMisch to the authorities on TyRon. Before this happened, DaMisch had argued several times with KoLaarn about when he was going to get his promotion, but KoLaarn had only argued back and had not committed himself one way or the other.
DaMisch became mentally unbalanced after he was turned over to DaSon and the Orion authorities. He began to speak out against everyone, claiming that they were all against him, and that they had done this to him out of jealousy. To speak against the government in Orion was tantamount to suicide. After having been fired from his career and ostracized by his society, DaMisch could only have survived by relying completely on himself and forgetting about the rest of society. But he was unable to do this, and eventually his loud protests were heard by the Orion security forces. He was labeled a troublemaker by them, and after a few warnings, they came to arrest him and take him in for an extensive program of reconditioning that would involve his being demoted into a Class II person who could now be legally controlled through electronic implants. DaMisch decided to resist this move, and in a fit of irrational anger, he was killed by the security forces who had been sent to arrest him.
This ended the sad saga of this person’s life, an example of what happens when you get involved negatively with people who are much more intelligent than are you, and who are only using you for their own purposes. Nonetheless, he volunteered for the job with KoLaarn because of his desire to advance himself into a higher professional position. It was his ego and his ambition, his high opinion of himself, that got him in “over his head” and led to his downfall.
LoTranis was determined to make it back to his home planet before he became any more lonely and depressed on Planet Kolaarn. If he returned to TyRon, he would have to face an inquiry as to how he had lost the Empire’s spacefleet to KoLaarn. As a result, he would probably permanently lose his command rank and would be reassigned to a lesser position in the Orion military. But LoTranis would not feel badly if this happened. At least he would retrieve his honor in facing his people.
LoTranis would have to escape from KoLaarn if he was to return to TyRon. This would not be difficult. They had not been able to prevent KoLaarn’s takeover of the spacefleet, and so had not committed any acts of aggression or disobedience against KoLaarn. As a result, they had not been charged with any crimes against the state. KoLaarn could not let them go voluntarily, as this would look bad to his own people, who believed that KoLaarn had been forced to take over the spacefleet because of a mutiny. He could, however, maintain them under such loose conditions of security that they could easily escape and return to TyRon.
Surprisingly, when LoTranis brought up the subject of returning to TyRon with his fellow command officers, only one of them expressed a desire to return with him. This was his first officer, who was also a relative. The others had secured positions in KoLaarn’s spacefleet command and would be eventually be promoted to command spacecraft when things had settled down and people had forgotten about the spacefleet incident.
LoTranis and his first officer were able to smuggle themselves out of planet KoLaarn on a scientific supply ship. They had obtained false identities as visiting scientists. The ship was headed for a planet that was in a nearby solar system. When they arrived at the planet, they quickly arranged for transport on another craft that was heading toward TyRon, and arrived there without encountering any of KoLaarn’s security forces.
The ensuing trials and inquisitions into the behavior of LoTranis took several months, but at last they came to and end. As expected, he was demoted in rank and removed permanently from further service in the Orion Empire. At first he was allowed to retire in peace, however, once one has achieved high rank and position in this type of system, one can never be truly free again. TyRantus died a few years later, and his successor was a rival of the “Lo” group of scientists. The pardon that the former emperor had extended to him was revoked, and he was arrested for his part in the mutiny that had taken place on KoLaarn’s planet years ago. On trial for his life, he only escaped when friend in the new government threatened the new emperor with revealing information as to how the old emperor had been assassinated instead of dying of natural causes. Faced with this information, the new emperor allowed LoTranis to be sentenced to a life sentence in prison. But LoTranis did not take well to prison life, and died only a few years after incarceration. So ended this saga of life in the Orion Empire.
