THE NON-PROPHET

November 6, 2025Locked35 pages

"At a "nonprofit" company, a new hire is tasked with collecting data from the future. Each vision proves more hilariously horrifying than the last, but the real terror may lie with his mysterious employer."

In this darkly comic sci-fi thriller, Elijah “Eli” Solomon, a nervous data collector with a mysterious birthmark, is recruited by the eccentric Clare Voyance to dive into a surreal extrasensory deprivation vat that unlocks his visions of humanity’s future. As Eli grapples with grotesque transformations and disturbing glimpses of a robot uprising and alien colonization centuries ahead, he must confront the moral ambiguity of witnessing futures he cannot change. Set in a high-tech lab and spanning cosmic timelines, this sharp, satirical tale explores fate, corporate greed, and the desperate hope for salvation amid an inevitable apocalypse.
