Unbound Boxes Limping Gods: Disconnected Stories. Issue # 75: Gianti Dincrind

March 6, 2013 by cherylmoore

Gianti Dincrind has been charged with the development of Project H, turning humans into wraiths, called Haernyarn. The Haernyarn are proposed to act as future guards for the growing number of Amanojuko Lords and Ladies, privileged enough to have been granted immortality. Gianti is not yet an Amanojuko, but has been promised a chance at being selected if she manages to successfully create Haernyarn from the prisoners on board the Floating Asylum. Unfortunately the process is unstable, and usually results in the subject’s death. Gianti is looking for a way of transmitting the virus from a haernyarn to a human, by genetically altering DNA and is about to make a breakthrough. Click here for next chronological story.

Gianti’s back story, set onboard The Floating Asylum, somewhere in the Arabian Sea. (3993)

  Hi Donesha, thank you, I’m glad you like it, and thanks for the encouragement, I appreciate it. You write your first chapter last!?

    Yes, and then I’ll change the title like eight times before I’m completely, completely finished!

Love the line ‘The screaming stops, the subject’s fingers claw the glass, leaving a bloody trail.’ Goosebumps!

Cheryl, I’ve been following this series, usually reading them at night. Last post, though, the floating asylum stuck in my brain. I went to sleep and had a dream about floating forever – like being granted Amanojuko. What a series you’ve created!

  Hi Allyson, thank you, it’s strange to me that something I wrote affected you in that way, blows my mind . Thanks for reading, it means a lot and encourages me to carry on.

  Thank you, btw I enjoyed Desert Song, it’s very cleverly written. It takes a lot of skill to write haiku’s.

Hi Cheryl! That is such a beautiful drawing – you’ve rendered Gianti’s callous nature so succinctly. It complements the text really well – truly a harsh empty vessel – I wonder what she hopes to do with her immortality.
- on March 6, 2013 at 11:05 pm | Reply cherylmoore
  
  Hi Richard, yes she’s one of the coldest characters so far, that’s a good point, I’m sure she’ll hope to become one of the Amanojuko’s main research scientists. There’s a whole hierarchy forming with these lords and ladies, and she wants to be a big part of it. (I don’t think I’d care for immortality much, myself…)

Nice… anything in this world about where DNA comes from in antiquity that altering it could be an unleashing? What power is in the DNA and why? A genesis could show a whole prequel.

  Hi Andy, that’s a good question, I’ll have to get Georges or Katherine De Somme to answer that one for me. There will be some more stories centred around the genesis of this virus in the future.

What is this?

Unbound Boxes Limping Gods is the first in a series of speculative fiction manuscripts, for which I'm seeking publication. These short stories feature some of the characters in a time set before the novels.
So many stories! Where do I begin?

Go to the Story timelines tab at the top, and you can read all the stories in order of time. You'll find them gradually connecting together.

The blurb for Unbound Boxes Limping Gods

(Set in 4041, the first book begins on Christmas Island, Japan.) Alexand Merek is a woman who treasures "Bad Things," and delights in music. She has done something stupid, placing those she loves in danger. Women like her are not welcome in the ordinary world, where women who play piano and dance with wives are placed into, "The Bad Thing Box." Alexand must fight to bring her lost family back together to save them from an unimaginable fate. (If you would like to see this book published, please press the follow button. The writer gives life to a story, but the reader keeps it alive.)
This is for you Dad.

My stories and my world are dedicated to you, Dad. You died before I was old enough to know who you were. I will try to find you in my stories, to go to places far away from this world, to search for you. Maybe one day I'll know you again. Until then I'll keep writing. I'll never forget you. Cheryl
