This novel covers the years from around 1000, just after the massive explosion, to around 1100. The massive explosion of the alien’s space port knocked the planet off its axis and caused it to wobble like some crazy top. In turn, this shift of the poles and wobble combined to wreak havoc on the weather. Some lands became deserts, while the central crop lands had rain, sleet, and snow nearly every day in the summer. Survival becomes a challenge for everyone. Both Nature and man have to find ways to adapt to the wild chaos. Thus began the Dark Ages on Tierra. Even worse, many areas lost a quarter of their population. Life became a harsh struggle to stay alive. Mysteriously, women’s breasts enlarged significantly, thus at least ensuring their babies would have enough to survive infancy. However, nearly one in every five person suddenly developed the mentales gift, which always including telepathy. Some could start fires, some could dominate others, the list of gifts became lengthy. The Archbishop of the Church of God issued a decree that these mentales gifted people were Lucifer’s spawn and were to be burned at the stake! A lone priest who had the gift decided to try to change this decree. The Bettingham group, accompanied by their alien wives Dita and Dr. Zosia and many others, established the Kingdom of the Angels. In this kingdom, construction was underway on the circular towers, while they worked slavishly to train all those who had received this mentales gift in their kingdom. Marisol catalogued all of the known forms of the mentales gifts and with the help of others created the Mentales Rule Book, which outlining both the training of newly gifted, the handling of those who got ill when their gifts manifested, and the handling of pregnant women. Thus, anyone who had the gift needed to go to their local Circle and get trained to use their gifts properly. Elsewhere, kingdoms broke down and many smaller groups fought each other over rapidly dwindling food supplies. Minor wars sprang up nearly everywhere. Those with the mentales gifts decided that they were powerful and should be the leaders. Many took over rulership positions of the many kingdoms, often by force. Then, another idea took hold: breeding those with powerful gifts with each other to create even more powerful children. Thus, the intentional breeding for enhanced mentales begins, giving rise to the concept of fosterlings, gifted children born out of wedlock just for their potential special powerful gifts. Amid the strife and conflict, the ancient penta-pantheon gods of Tierra were awakened! Meanwhile, the aliens rebuild and see the rise and takeover of the world by the mentales gifted. However, during this period, one long-lived minister strictly enforces the Closed World policy. Enter the age of the towers, the C rculo de la Torres, filled with the gifted, who now controlled the world, but without any restraints on their powers. Follow how they rose to power, salvaging the world, and how one man, Felix Brom, bought sanity to the warring towers, discovered the psi-crystals which magnified their mentales powers a hundred-fold, discovered that many could join together as a C rculo de mentes, combining their powers into an unlimited weapon. Felix’s goal: to end all wars, bringing peace at last to Tierra.
