Meet Camouraska

Tuesday, 3/21/23

Hello, followers!

We have a SPECIAL treat today. Camouraska, the notorious alien on Ralga, has shown up, unexpectedly, to do an interview! Michael left a piece of Energite behind, and Camouraska talked to me through it. I had to use Google Translate set to Kadeshi to communicate with it, but it worked, and it was an amazing conversation about the Truth.

Have fun getting to know Camouraska and leave any questions you have for any or my characters or myself in the Comments section. Next time I’ll be interviewing Jimmy, so be sure to come back for that.

JOHN: Tell us about yourself. Where you’re from, what you do for a living, for fun, etc. etc.

CAMOURASKA: Who are you?

JOHN: (Another great start). My name is John, and I’m writing a novel about you and the other characters. Can you tell me anything about yourself?

CAMOURASKA: I represent the highest potential life has ever discovered.

JOHN: That’s quite a claim. Why do you think you’re the highest potential?

CAMOURASKA: I was made that way. I am parts human and Kadeshi, the most advanced species ever created. I was made to answer the ultimate question. For those reasons, I am the most advanced organism ever created.

JOHN: I have many, many follow up questions. One is, what can you tell me about the Kadeshi?

CAMOURASKA: They are the most advanced civilization in history, and they landed here years and years ago. A group of them and the Ralgans created me, and now I protect the people housed inside the black rock. I owe the Kadeshi my life.

JOHN: Why did the Ralgans and Kadeshi create you?

CAMOURASKA: I was made to reveal the secrets of the Universe. The prophecy says it.

JOHN: Ah, the prophecy. What can you tell us about it?

CAMOURASKA: The prophecy says that the Truth will be revealed when the Lights of the Stars come together.

JOHN: What is the Truth?

CAMOURASKA: An answer to all our questions.

JOHN: All my questions? Like, the question why melted cheese tastes good on most anything. Will that be answered?

CAMOURASKA: No. I don’t have an answer for you for that question. The real question the Truth will answer is where life began and why we’re here. Those are the ultimate questions.

JOHN: What do you think the answer will be? God? Science? Another explanation?

CAMOURASKA: I don’t know. We’ll have to see what we find.

JOHN: I interviewed some other people on Ralga, and they said you created the black rock shelter that’s named after you. Is that true?

CAMOURASKA: Yes. I live within the walls of the community.

JOHN: Do you have a body like I do, like the others do?

CAMOURASKA: I am not like you and the others. I live in various forms. It wouldn’t make sense to try to explain.

JOHN: What do you know about any danger on Ralga? I mean, this is a science fiction novel series with some thrilling/suspenseful elements.

CAMOURASKA: Ralga is safe now. There is no danger if the rules are followed.

JOHN: What are the rules?

CAMOURASKA: There are many. The most important is to love thy neighbor. Another is to not kill. Another is not to steal. There are many more.

JOHN: Those sound like some of the Ten Commandments. Are there some Ralgans that follow Christianity?

CAMOURASKA: I don’t know what Christianity is, and I don’t know what the Ten Commandments are. These are our rules.

JOHN: Are there other religions on Ralga?

CAMOURASKA: There used to be other religions, but now only the search for the Truth guides us.

JOHN: Any parting thought for the readers?

CAMOURASKA: I can’t wait to find the Truth with all of you readers. That includes you too, John. May the Ahut guide us to answers to all our questions.
