As for the young Dr Amaziah, who is walking through a strange new world he woke to a day ago, he is sitting outside of the ruins of once was an American football stadium wondering what is next. What is next? He adjusts his sheath and makes certain his King Author is secure. There are trees all around him. What was once the suburbs of Washington DC is now a forest. He looks at these ruins and think of the Redskins and Nationals, American football and Baseball teams respectively, who played games here in front audiences in the thousands.
Is this a dream?
He feels is stomach growl. Then this must not be a dream because I'm hungry. Finding something to eat will be impossible here because there are no grocery stores or McDonalds. He checks the pockets of the light brown canvas made outfit he has on. "I have no money either...if money is yet used. Are there any people buy anything from if I had money to spend?"
He prepares to walk away when he hears what sounds like a voice calling his name. It is coming from with in the ruins of the stadium. He walks into the place and on to the grassy field and standing in the middle of the grassy field with in the stadium is a white stone about two stories high.
"No one's here, so who called my name?"
A face appears on the giant stone. It is the face of an elderly gentleman. . .with blue and white hair? "I called your name.
"I am speaking to you from this strange phenomena of our time called a message rock. Only you can receive this message. You have questions that will be answered by me although I am not answering you live. . .I know what questions you will ask because of my im-mortal gifts of insight. My name is Oshua Muffield. You are a thousand, thousand years into the future. You were thought to be dead, you were given the gift of human imortality that will allow your life to continue after you rise in our time, and for a purpose during this time in human history.
"Because of your, your twenty-nine math formulas, humanity exists today. As you have seen, your body was placed in a tomb below the the feet of the statue of Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial."
"What happened to our world?" Thaddeous asked.
"Everything you see is the result of a great nuclear and biological war. This war have left almost a quarter of humanity with some type of mutation form. . .but not all of us, as I am a muffin, does this mutaion cause some severe form of abnormality."
"What must I do? "
"Look for me when you arrive to the Day City. I will be there waiting for you." as his face disappears, "If something occurs that keeps you from coming to the Day City, I will look for you."
A female voice comes from behind Amaziah from atop of the ruins. "Hey! what are you doing out?"
