Wicked Messenger

by Edward Drobinski

The tale starts with the exploratory earth mission of a politically contacted Eli scout necessitated by the discovery that Eli’s sun is burning out, as Earth is a suitable destination. His primary mission is to determine if Earth's weaponry is any real threat to his people. He meets earthlings and gets diverted. The tale goes on with migration, Earth and Eli political intrigue, and eventually an accidentally sabotaged resolution of sorts.
