Stories : New Port     New Port         Aeons ago the valley was called "New Port". Not that there was or is another port in the neighborhood and so just port would have been enough. Not that there is anybody to remember this name and so even no name would be sufficient. But with New Port it was like always: the name was given, it was used and at the end it was forgotten. By the way, the planet was titled by humans Eden-1387 or shortened just Eden. Maybe you have heard about it, but I bed you havn't. And only to complete this information completly unimportant to you and to me and to everybody else, the natives are calling the planet "Cr'grdd" which means Terra or Earth or something similar. By the way this is an universal principle: all intelligent lifeforms are calling their planet Terra or Earth or something similar. So far, so good: Aeons ago the valley was called "New Port", but this is long ago (aeons I guess). The valley opens to a plane field over time build up as a wonderful park and recreation area forming a bay opening to the southern ocean. Today it is a desert only, a huge beach so to say. Unfortunatly the southern ocean dried out as well and so the park is nowadays a beach without ocean, probably the most useless thing one can even think of. Just the natives (the "Cr'g") are happy about the current situation. The Cr'g are very well accustomed to a desert - in fact they do hate water - and so they love the valley formerly known as New Port and they love the former park and they love the former southern ocean which are nowadays a bright desert.     Nach oben       ©2002 TerraFiction   Alle Geschichten können für den privaten Gebrauch gespeichert werden.
