The Final Draft: A Work of Friction

Will Masters received a phone call late this morning that would change his life forever and for the better, he thought. As a reporter on the Arkansas Tribune, he had been complacent with the mundane, the local stories that led his career nowhere but were everywhere in excess. This particular morning would change this particular aspect of his chosen field of work, he believed. A famous scientist, a recipient of the Nobel Prize, which mysteriously was never collected was on the other end of the line requesting an interview with him. With him! The man had disappeared years before without a trace and as suddenly, reappeared at Will’s desk on his phone. Will’s reaction was immediate. To the man’s location he drove, a hundred miles away to a remote cabin where, unbeknownst to Will, an unfolding would take place and would send his life careening off a cliff spiraling downward into a place he didn’t know existed, into a world that only existed in legend and myth. The mundane was over in his life and a spiritual awakening awaited him, luring him into a life that would never be the same again.
