A Gap in Time (Caveman Chronicles)

Index -|- Thoka blinked her eyes and slowly stretched. She could feel Kpleeb’s warmth behind her. His breathing was slow and steady, a sure sign that he was fast asleep.

Together (Caveman Chronicles)

The Index -|- Kpleeb woke to an enjoyable warmth and softness to which he was entirely unaccustomed.

The Index -|- Thoka lay awake staring at the moon. Something bothered her, but she was not quite sure what it was. It was normal for her was to think excessively.

Base-10 (Caveman Chronicles)

The Index -|- Kpleeb was in funk. A day passed. Two days, and then four more. He fiddled endlessly with Thoka’s small device. He built a dozen new devices and improved upon them with Thoka’s help.

Abacus Hammer (Caveman Chronicles)

The Index -|- The sun was just beginning to dim when Kpleeb awoke. He rolled over and immediately noticed that the brain fog that had plagued him was gone. He blinked his eyes.

Fifteen and four.” She tallied three groups of five on the wall and then added four more. Kpleeb wrangled his … Continue reading Merging Minds (Caveman Chronicles)
