Excerpt from Book IV: Discovery
"A ladder, a ladder of ascension, we got the worlds highest ladder here! My god it reaches into the heavens, you got to see this thing to even imagine it" the surveyor exclaimed over his 'ODT'! The messages were pouring in regarding this 'Sanctuary', what ever it was?
A ladder that climbed into the heavens, I tried to imagine what such a ladder was for? Why had the Alta(n) constructed it and for what purpose? My mind mused and drifted off into deep thought, as I imagined climbing the ladder and making the discovery of a lifetime!
"Your orders, ma'am", I heard the surveyor ask? "Secure the perimeter, I'm coming out for a look at this myself", I said. "Understood" came the reply.
