JOURNAL OF POSSIBLE PARADIGMS
Issue 4, Summer '96
Greetings,
Apparently, sometime during the late 1940's a stray ray from the subterranean Dero ripped through spatio-temporal orthogonal rotations within hyperspace, finally emerging within your current dimensional frame of reference. It was at this point, some months ago, that this rogue transdimensional energy blast intersected with your printer's equipment. This resulted in a temporal whiplash effect which catapulted the entire electronic contents of this issue nearly 10,000 years into Earth's past.
The transmissions were intercepted by Lemurian orthogonal reality radio technicians. Not much of the data made it through. Some of what made it through was unintelligible to even the most skilled of their translinguistic cryptographers. Sensing a purposiveness to the origins of the "transmission" they encoded an archival memory crystal and paired it with a single memetic crystal console within a spherical time-capsule (like the one pictured on the cover). It was buried somewhere in the eastern hemisphere.
It was "unearthed" sometime during the late 1800's to early 1900's. The spherical capsule had vibrated itself to the surface like some mad rattling alarm clock. It was discovered by a colonial mining concern and ended up in the hands of its most eccentric owner. I just happened to be the friendly soothsayer of said eccentric at that time. I recognized the highly complex yet seamless spheroid locking mechanism to be of Lemurian origins and quickly convinced my wily business friend to let me "unlock all of its potential" in private. Once I was alone with the orb I performed the necessary sky clad ritual to satiate the tightly clenched hunger that kept its guarded lips clamped closed.
Once opened all its secrets were revealed. Being quite skilled with Lemurian memetic crystal technology (though much out of practice at that time), I quickly explored the contents of the single encoded memory crystal. I was unnerved. Though I was knowledgeable of God's plan and my role in it my contact with these transmissions from the past of transmissions from the future made me fearful of the days I knew lay ahead. I am no longer that naive adolescent immortal. Now I am much more active in the implementing of His plan. I took the knowledge I gained from ELFis4 and prepared myself for His coming and the prophesied end times. As time accelerates towards the end I have been very busy. Busy networking, spell casting, dream walking, and praying. In this fray that is the apocalypse I almost forgot to close the loop that allowed me to wake up sooner than I might have had I not encountered ELFis4.
I produced a print run of ELFis4 as close to the way I assumed the editor intended it. I secured these tomes within the Lemurian time-capsule, resetting it to unbury itself in 1996 when I would deliver them to the address inscribed at the bottom of each page. After adding this introduction of course. But the millennium has kept me busy and I nearly didn't get these to you in time for the next reality shift. We're all going to love this one.
So here it is: ELFis 4! "Anonymously" delivered to your PO Box. I hope you get them out in time. Sorry it doesn't have all the data and images but that's the kind of havoc those damn Dero rays can reek. Can't wait to see the ELFis WWWeb Site! And what are those other projects you refer to in the Letters Forum? Maybe I'll keep in touch.
M Melchizedek.
