http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/4-i-am-rock-i-am-atlantis.html
4 I am a Rock, I am Atlantis. 8216;I don’t get what the big deal is,’ said Dennis as Lydia stormed out of his dorm room, ‘I’m just helping her finish a paper.’. She brushed past Hailey in the hallway and intentionally avoided eye contact. 8216;Are you sure she’s okay with this? 8217; Hailey asked as she let herself into Dennis’ room. 8216;It’s fine. I don’t know what her problem is.’. 8216;We don’t have to–’. 8216;It’s fine. What do you have so far – hey, where’s your stuff? 8216;Oh…okay.’. The professor...

http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/1-bastille-day.html
8216;Did you know John Kellogg was a Seventh Day Adventist? 8217; asked Dennis as he poured himself a bowl of cornflakes. 8216;Those damn protestors are at it again,’ replied his girlfriend Lydia as she peered out the window at the small crowd gathered with their patchwork of signs. 8216;Yeah, he was a big time health nut too,’ continued Dennis, ‘before he invented cornflakes he ran a Sanitarium in Battle Creek, Michigan where he taught rich people to be healthy.’. 8216;Why don’t you skip today? 8216;Clo...

Art by Josh Rivers. Dennis and Hailey begin their practicum with Prof. Pravat. They look into the origin of the phrase 'Let them eat cake.'. History, like many things, bears little resemblance to its representation in the movies. Dennis and Hailey look for the truth behind a famous film: Pocahontas.

Chronodyssey: 3. Taxman
http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/3-taxman.html
Dennis awoke to the sound of his alarm. He looked up and saw that it was 7:45PM. 8216;Weird time to wake up,’ said a voice. Dennis looked around and focused his tired eyes. His roommate, Vic, was standing not far from Dennis’ bed. He had apparently been there for some time. He had a concerned look on his face. 8216;I have to go,’ said Dennis. 8216;What’s up, Dennis? 8217; asked Vic. ‘You’ve been acting strange lately.’. Dennis noticed his satchel was lying open on the floor, his books scattered around it.

Chronodyssey: 2. New World Man
http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/2-new-world-man.html
2 New World Man. On Tuesday evening around six o’clock Hailey and Dennis sat down to dinner. Not together mind you, Dennis was on a date with Lydia and Hailey was at home with her mom. 8216;Late again,’ said Mrs. Ericson, ‘who knows when he’ll show up? Hailey, I need you to pick up your sister from swim lessons.’. 8216;I have internship tonight. I’m sure dad will show up at some point.’. 8216;Even if he does I doubt he’ll be any condition to drive.’. 8216;I made dinner, didn’t I? 8216;Not exactly,’...

Chronodyssey: 8. Eldorado
http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/8-eldorado.html
8216; This town sure. Has changed in the last fifteen years,’ Hailey said as she and Dennis made their way along the promenade. ‘I guess a revolution will do that.’. In some ways, however, Dennis was looking forward to temporal captivity. In the past seven months he had risked his life more times than he cared to remember: in the previous few weeks alone he had almost been executed by the mad emperor Caligula and, more than once, narrowly avoided ubiquitous outbreaks of the plague. 8216;We might as well ...

Chronodyssey: 5. Marooned
http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/5-marooned.html
On the fourteenth of July 1518 two very strange things happened in Strasbourg. First, as has been recorded by historians, the “dancing plague” had its most famous outbreak; hundreds of people danced violently and uncontrollably for days, some dying of exhaustion. Second, as has never before been recorded, two travellers from the twenty-first century appeared in a wheat field just outside the town. 8216;Don’t touch the wheat! 8217; shouted Dennis. 8216;So the people just danced uncontrollably? 8216;ItR...

Chronodyssey: 7. Fly By Night
http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/7-fly-by-night.html
7 Fly By Night. Of the hill, stretching like a withered hand out from the mist that had spread itself across the countryside, there was a leafless tree. A drowsy dove was perched on one of its branches. The grey sky was brightening over the eastern horizon. The air was calm and not a sound could be heard. The dove slumbered on. A low rumble began to grow. The stunned rider suddenly jumped up and staggered toward the gnarled tree. The burly warrior followed unhurriedly behind. 8217; he bellowed. 8217; Den...

Chronodyssey: 6. A Hazy Shade of Winter
http://chronodyssey.blogspot.com/p/6-hazy-shade-of-winter.html
6 A Hazy Shade of Winter. It was another quiet evening in the Ericson household. Hailey was on her laptop on the couch trying to decide which courses to take in her next and final semester at McMeeken University. Christy, her eight-year-old sister, was on the floor stringing popcorn to put on the tree as well as her little hands would let her. Hailey had offered to help but the girl was determined. Christy looked at her smugly. Then she grimaced. 8216;What’s grow-vilisation. 8217; Hailey gasped. 8216;Oh,...
