SSSSpark 《惊奇科幻》:
科幻大世界,一步一纷呈!
每个世界有每个世界的主宰,每颗星球有每颗星球的曲折。美国作家亚当笔下的“Elarimuth”因为石器时代的落后,也受着残暴统治,苟延残喘地活着,等待他们预言中的天命之子拯救他们,他们对救世主的渴望已经超越了自身的生命,"The Pincess"等待着她的真命天子降临,拯救族群,与其他女子不同,她对预言中的人的爱主要出自族群的拯救—这就比较像早期人类族群生活在部落里,不同的部落有不一样的“图腾”,他们信仰图腾中的事物一直守候在他们身边,帮他们度过大灾大难;不过这只是一种相似罢了,文中的“Elarimuth”即便在没有真神降临前,也会持以长矛,严阵以待,在“The Princess”的带领下,对抗“Tyrant”的军队以及暴政行为。整体来看,全文围绕“Elarimuth”追求安宁和平的生存环境,敢预言,敢挑战权威,尽管真神未必会降临,他们也在为族群的生存而坚守,这是作者少有的歌颂,既包含了对人类早期社会和精神层面发展的怀念,也蕴含了对人类未来发展的渴望和警示—共存,尊重和斗争精神。


部分字幕以及重点词汇:
00:05Good morning, everyone! This is SSSSpark Sci-fi show where you can find something distinctive in recent work of science fiction and may be remarkable in writing techniques as well as delicate design in narratives. Today our work is "The Day the Earthman Didn’t Show Up", also a dark flash fiction by Adam-Troy Castro who started his non-fiction or his first work on SPY magazine; later, gave birth to manufictions of all resources, most of which are based on dog imagination and terror.
00:44"The Day the Earthman Didn’t Show" mainly talks about the civilization of Elarimuth who prophesied about the fateful arrival of an earth man who would shepherd the civilization to thrive after snatching victory from jaws of defeat against the Tyrant.
01:03 Elarimuth had an unparalleled flair for prophecy because of their understanding of chronoflow precisely measured at one hundreds decimal point, which proved thin on the ground in other planets. They served as Hill Tribes which demonstrated their bonafide and fealty toward their people and ones who came to rescue.
01:29 Conventionally, their prophecy was so unerring that their plan which was bound up with their future would basically weed out the rigamarole which harmed their survival. The Princess was the leader of them who was predicted to sire a pair of boys with the Earthman. She had always ordered her people to be huddled in the steppes with war paints, musclebound, against the army of the Tyrant. They had been ready to gasp in unison against the authority of Tyrant. But now, things changed. The Earthman might come to the planet through the portal of the other world. trespassing positively on the war between the Tyrant and Hill Tribes.
02:16Bloodshed was doomed to happen after he was dragged in the war, but something that would materialize naked was that he would not show up, which might cause tribes to confront ranting ways and villainous reign of the Tyrant in no small part because any prophecy had possibilities of failures, despite a touch. If so, the tribes that had always been under stewardship of the Tyrant would continue to accept givens—survival of the fittest.
