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's expression was that of indifference. In a second, he had completed the swapping of cards. His perception had already discovered the card artisans approaching rapidly in his direction. He knew he only had one opportunity to attack. Regardless of the success or failure of that attack, he had to depart!

Suddenly, two fist-sized energy balls, one black and one white, appeared beside Chen Mu.

What's this? Jin Yin was somewhat puzzled but nonetheless showed signs of being cautious. Though he desperately wanted a breakthrough, he didn't wish to lose his life for it.

A pop sounded softly. The black and white energy balls exploded simultaneously, and countless little energy beads burst forth, flying in all directions.
