Kingdom Come
The second in a three part story concerning a future world that just might be right around the corner. The vaccine had been promoted with the promise of eradicating the killer virus that had wiped out a whopping 2 percent of the humanity; amazingly, nearly the total human race came forward to receive the inoculation. The man responsible for making this all possible had come to be known simply as "The Prophet". How society was ever able to operate without the benevolent act of this great man was now unfathomable. Wasn't he the one who convinced the nations to come to the table and agree to act as one and take the "cleansing"? A small injection taken in the right arm, and incredibly, the deadly virus was corralled, as well as many other viruses that had plagued humanity from the beginning of time, even the common cold was at an all time low.

The 3 Possible Futures of the Metaverse: Understanding the Metaverse, Network Stars and NFT Planets
The Metaverse is a term people are throwing around like decentralization when it just started being a thing – they use it far more than they need, and to describe things that are not quite what the term means.

Cross Roads
Cross Roads EXT. ALLEYWAY - NIGHT Fading from black, the sound of constant rain patters on different metals, aluminums and puddles in an urban alley. Thunder claps are paired with flashes of lightning that, for one second each, show the contents of the alley. The first lightning strike shows an alley empty of sentient life.

The Looming Winter of Discontent and Why A Crisis By Christmas is Possible
The world is hurtling towards a “crisis by Christmas”! Right from the Financial Fights over the Debt Ceiling in the United States and the Looming “implosion” of the Chinese Economy, to the burgeoning Global Energy Shock, and the all present threat of shortages in the UK and of gas in Europe, there are no dearth of “triggers” that can have a cascading effect on the world. Indeed, with such a Perfect Storm of converging crises, we can expect some sort of catalyzing event around the End of the Year, from which only a Divine Intervention can save us.

How the Universe will end?
The universe started roughly 14 billion years ago from an infinitesimally small and dense point. This event is known as the Big Bang. How do I know this? Well, we have evidence to support this. It is amazing that we have progressed so much that we understand the universe pretty well and have clever ways to do so. For example, when we came to know about the expansion of the universe we thought of the past and then the beginning part became clear. Not completely, but we have to admit that we do understand it well-nigh.
