Eyes in the Dust

(2016)
A Story by

 
 
The world has moved on and left Cortland behind. His career as an academic has fizzled out, his fiancé is dead, and he remains haunted by the notion that it’s his fault. When a consulting firm contacts him with the opportunity of a lifetime—two months off the grid studying slime molds at the bottom of an ancient impact crater—he has no choice but to accept. He soon learns, however, that the crater holds dark secrets, that death itself is not an exit, but rather a welcoming to the black folds of the vacuous realm. Here, perhaps, it’s possible to find all of the answers Cortland has been searching for—so long as he can remember what it means to be human.
