The Sphere

In 2019, I won the Loose Conversations short story competition for $1,000. It was, maybe, one of my most ambitious projects ever. The competition guidelines were this:
5 short stories.
The 5 stories each had to be of different themes: History, Heritage, Pride, Body Enhancement, and Prejudice.
And oh, with a word limit of only 600 words each.
600 words for one story, to me, didn’t sound like a lot, and so, I decided to make it into a series. And, praise be to the gods, it worked. And I loved them all.
Here is the collection of my winning stories.
“The Sphere”.
01- The Sphere of the Ancients [History].
