Vanderrook Roost

“Abner, we have a myth on earth about a bird, the Phoenix, who burst into flame, then into ashes and out of the ashes arise a new Phoenix chick, and the cycle goes on and on when the Phoenix chooses to die. A bird of prophecy of changes to come we can’t avoid. Be it good or evil. Yet the Phoenix is reborn every time out of the ashes of change. To prevent that rebirth is to have no change and to doom Rook. If we guide that rebirth, we have a better chance of it being a change that is good not evil.” Mary, said.
“Steve stood and raised his glass of dehydrated reconstituted cola to his comrades, Captain Jona, Jenna, and Troy. “I toast the Phoenix, and Mary of course for reminding us that change is inescapable. This ship was named ‘The Darling Angel of Hope’. The Phoenix is also a bird of Hope. May it continue to bring hope, for without change there is no Hope.”… Abner is an alien from another world his spaceship the ‘Darling Angel of Hope’ arrived on Earth in the year 1756, on a mission to save his world from extinction. Vanderrook Roost is a story about Hope, that on earth he would find his Phoenix and bring change to his world. It took 329 earth years for the Phoenix to rise from the ashes of his despair to save a world Trillions of miles away from Earth.
