]]> http://danaerea.com/archives/richard-redmond-revelation-part-one/feed 0 alternate history,ancient astronauts,global conspiracy,secret society,space Richard Redmond, archaeologist, discovers an artifact at a Mayan dig site that could change our understanding of human history. If he can figure out what it means before the ancient enemies that want the truth to remain buried, bury Richard along with it. The few lights strung around the central chamber of the temple were powered by an electrical cable snaking along the passageway and out to the generator in the camp. The illumination they provided was dim and they flickered frequently. The flashlight that Richard had with him would probably have done a better job of lighting the room but he had turned it off an hour ago. He was just standing, trying to get a better sense of how the room would have looked to the ancient Mayans who built it. “Communing with the spirits” was how he half-jokingly described the process to his students when he was lecturing at the university. Truth was... he wasn’t exactly sure what it was that he did. He just knew that, if he spent enough time immersing himself in the atmosphere of a ruin like this, he often came away with insights that others missed. “Oh, please.” Richard whirled around, startled at the faint words. It was a woman’s voice. Richard thought that Jaimie, his dig boss, must have followed him into the temple. She was the only woman on the expedition. He waited, peering back up the passageway, but no one appeared. Probably just an echo from someone talking near the entrance, Richard thought. Sound did funny things in a place like this. Richard returned his attention to the relief carvings and murals on the chamber walls. Three thousand years of accumulated dirt and cobwebs couldn’t obscure the central focus. A single object appeared in every scene. It had a central, basketball-shaped body of gold crowned by a red gemstone and supported by three wooden legs equidistantly spaced to form a tripod. Not that Richard had to depend on the murals for a description. They had the artefact itself. Until yesterday, when he’d had it removed to the camp, it had rested on the altar he was leaning against right now. “Too bad you hadn’t left it where it was, bright boy.” Richard jumped at this second whisper, grabbing his flashlight and shining it into the corner of the chamber where it seemed the sarcastic comment had come from. “Professor Redmond? Are you okay?” Richard spun around toward the entrance to find Jaimie staring at him, a concerned look on her face. “Were you talking to someone just now?” Richard asked. “No one, Professor. I’m alone.” When Richard didn’t say anything more, she went on. “I thought you’d want to know the results of my tests on the artefact.” Richard shrugged off the strange incident. Hearing things. Better be careful, he thought to himself. Next thing you know, I’ll be believing that the poor bastards who were likely sacrificed here are haunting the place. Getting creeped-out was a hazard of the profession. Aloud, he simply said “Good. Thanks. What did you find out?” “Well, the red crystal on the top is exactly what you thought it was - the biggest ruby I’ve ever seen. But the design on the setting doesn’t match anything in the Mayan database. At least not the limited database we have in the laptops. I still can’t get the satellite phone working so I haven’t been able to access the university’s computers. Ted’s still working on the uplink.” Richard frowned. The glitch in the satellite phones seriously curtailed the amount of analysis they could do onsite. Not to mention it meant that he couldn’t talk to Nadine. Today of all days. He focused on the task at hand. “Well, the carvings make it pretty clear that it was central to some sort of sacred ceremony. It was probably part of a funeral ritual.” “Or birth,” added Jaimie. “There seem to be depictions of both.” “Yeah,” muttered Richard, looking from one carving to another. He waited. When Jaimie hesitated, he prompted her. “And ...?” Jaimie looked unhappy. “I’m sorry, Professor. I must have contaminated the sample somehow. The analysis of the central gold globe is screwy. It came back only ten percent gold. The rest is steel – not iron, steel – and some elements that the field equipment we have here couldn’t even identify.
