LAST EDITED ON Nov-24-19 AT 03:35 AM (EST)
 
[ yeah, yeah, I did it again. I'm like the guy in the "How to Make Sushi" meme when it comes to underestimating how many parts a thing will be. "Dammit, it's always like this with you." :) --G.]

Here's the beginning of a fourfive-part FI mini-series, Friends Like These: From the Chronicles of Japari Park. This isn't meant to be another serial experiment, but a straight fourfive-parter, probably to be compiled into a "movie" edition once it's all out (which should take a week or two). It does introduce characters and situations that will probably recur in other, already extant subseries.

Part I: The Forbidden City

If you haven't, you should probably read the Featured Doc on Meta Eridani III. Perhaps also the Golden Age story set 300 years previously on the same planet (which, ye gods, it does not feel like we made that 16 years ago). You know—for background.

Enjoy!
