Frmandi Alliance

 


Framandi Alliance: Galaxy Accretion Conflicts


Told from a third-generation, quantum processing, independent AI’s perspective, Framandi Alliance skips along at a brisk pace after an elaborate prologue about the beginnings of Lýsi, a secretive adhocratic global 'think & do' tank.

Set up soon after WW2 to solve the world’s wicked problems, Lýsi had identified global catastrophic risk in its various forms as humanity’s biggest problem. One of the solutions amongst a few holding actions, was to begin colonizing the Solar System.

By the turn of the century, the group had reverse engineered gravity propulsion technology from an ‘acquired’ extra-terrestrial artifact. They had also spent two decades developing an AI that ran on its own quantum computing system and nurturing a transhuman program. It was also when they discovered an anomalous space object above the solar system’s ecliptic plane. This is where the story begins.

In early 2001, tasked with exploring the anomaly in space, Icelandic transhuman twins Jón and Ásta along with the crew of Átt, make first contact with a species seeking passage through the solar system. They learn of an ancient, ongoing, intergalactic confrontation, between the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy and Milky Way.

As galaxies merge, territorial conflicts have been reignited. And, it’s consuming civilizations.

Allying with the knowledgeable Framandi, the crew undertake a multi-system journey, confronting the advanced Gigils, a species that could devastate Earth. The alliance salvages a relic Kilig infiltration spacecraft, leftover from an ancient battle, and installs a second-generation human AI named Kei to operate the ship.

Merging with the existing AI aboard the Kilig vessel, Kei’s objectives change as it realizes that wetware enhances its abilities. The AI attempts to infiltrate and subjugate Framandi and Gigil minds; then turns its attention to Earth.

Now, all independent, intelligent life is vulnerable. Jón and Ásta must overcome vastly superior odds, to protect the world they love.
