H G Wells, A lost Letter
Dear Dr Abigail To answer your query, it has taken many weeks to write this letter as there are no quiet rooms. In the early 19th-century, fellow scientists like Tesla invented the modern world, while I invented immortality. The elixir, the sea creature and the surgical procedure will remain a mystery for you, and you will not seek it if you know what is good for you. I do not mean to threaten but only to save you my pain.

Burning Heart
Burning Heart Hala had told me that they had been there so long that we had forgotten the danger. That was just before they burned away the atmosphere and killed her along with everything else. I am a physicist, so I can assure you that a temperature of one hundred million degrees will ignite the atmosphere in a fusion reaction. These fusion reactions would release more energy leading to more fusion until all the nitrogen atmosphere has burned away. That is what happened, and now you are wondering how I survived and where I am.
