The Card Apprentice

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world. Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice. The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos – human and nonhuman – into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more. Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

Chen Mu nodded with understanding, since no-one knew as clearly as he did what Copper had been dreaming about since he was little.

"Why don't we both go?" Copper asked tentatively.

Chen Mu shook his head, "I plan to stay home, since there are many things I still haven't cleared up."

There was nothing Copper could do with a fanatic like Chen Mu, except to say disdainfully, "Boring old Blockhead!"

With Copper out of the way, Chen Mu didn't have to produce card plays, but could focus completely on researching what was in that mysterious card.

At the same time, among the women at Eastern Wei Academy, "Chance Encounter" was surging ever more intensely. No matter who had the card play, there would immediately be countless others coming to borrow it, and without even giving it back to the original owner, they would immediately lend it out to another friend.
