B> the time I had recovered from this shock, we had landed at the airport. In unusually fine and mild weather for Svdnev. I completed my business in 20 minutes or so, and then wandered around waiting for the return flight. Having a . few hours to waste, I decided to look into the SF position in the Harbour city. And what a position ! They must keep it under the counter ! A few back numbers of ASF at McKay's, a PB or two at Swain's, but no hardcover items ! What's going on up there, gang ? Has it been declared subversive by your government now ? Anyway, after looking in vain, I decided to take in the sights. Glad to see that the Berger building is finished at last - also the elevated railway at the Quay. When will this be paid off ? Not wishing to wake up any ghosts, I di.idt tell anyone I was going there, but a little jingle went through my mind as we went along Oxford St. en route to the airport : 'Give my regards to Sydney,' 'Remember me to Taylor Square.'

DARKFALL LOGLINE A catastrophic solar storm charges the Earth’s atmosphere, enabling a small group of humans known as Summoners to practice magic while obliterating electricity and chemical combustion. Mankind is thrust back into a new Dark Age. SERIES PREMISE What if science stopped working? What if magic started working? What if scientifically developed, sophisticated society is, in the blink of an eye, thrust back into what is effectively a new Dark Age? THE EVENT DarkFall’s main premise is that there are individuals who, due to a rare genetic mutation, are capa- ble of channeling power from a negative magnetic atmospheric charge, breaching the fabric of our dimensional plane and calling forth creatures from alternate dimensions. These individuals are known as Summoners. Earth is intermittently subjected to coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that charge our atmosphere like a battery. However, the strength of these events is rarely higher in magnitude than -300 nano- Teslas (nT). Within the DarkFall mythos, our planet has been subjected to CMEs in excess of -2,500 nT on only five occasions.¹ Depending on the magnitude of the initial event, residual charges persist any- where from 100 to 600 years. The most recent occurrence of this phenomenon was recorded by a Benedictine monk, Gregor Mortier, in 923 C.E.
