A Glimpse Through Time's Window

In the twilight of the Victorian era, a brilliant inventor proposes something that violates every known law of physics-that time is merely a fourth dimension through which one might travel. To his skeptical dinner guests, he demonstrates a small model that vanishes at the press of a lever, then reveals a larger machine nearing completion in his laboratory. None truly believe him-his brilliance has always made serious things seem like tricks. Yet a week later, these same gentlemen arrive to find their host absent from his own dinner party. When he finally appears, he's disheveled, limping, with bloodstained clothes and a half-healed cut on his chin. After devouring his meal with ravenous hunger, he begins an extraordinary tale of eight days unlike any human has experienced before. What could reduce such a brilliant, confident man to this desperate state? What horrors or wonders await humanity in the distant future? His story begins with the sensation of helpless motion-day and night flapping like black wings as he hurtles through time at over a year a minute, watching buildings rise and pass like dreams, snow flashing across the world followed by brief green springs, all while wondering: has mankind evolved into something inhuman and unsympathetic?
