PROLOGUE
Millennia ago, the fall of an asteroid that no human could have predicted brought "life" to the world.
But what exactly is life?
Humanity has the luxury of defining life as an intangible, almost personal and intentional, seemingly eternal principle, tirelessly perpetuating itself and manifesting itself through all living beings, animal and vegetable.
but this celestial body had then turned this notion upside down by bringing with it the constituent elements of a new concept of life.
in fact, this rock crossing the earth's ionosphere caused an EMI (electro-magnetic pulse) thirty times greater than that of the most violent solar storm ever recorded to hit planet earth.
the Carrington event, in 1859.
He reversed the planet's magnetic field, rendering all electronic technology, the basis of human civilisation, inoperative.
The asteroid continued inexorably on its fateful descent into the thermosphere where it cracked in advance due to the strong pressure exerted on it.
The asteroid continued inexorably its fatal descent towards the thermosphere where it cracked in advance due to the strong pressure exerted on it. Then, when it entered the Mesosphere, a powerful explosion followed, 587 times that of little boy (code name of the nuclear bomb dropped in 1945 by the Americans on Hiroshima) which shook the planet itself and made it tremble on all sides.
The shock wave of the explosion blew thousands of kilometres of earth, a planetary tsunami.
the deflagration released an immense cloud of molten debris, burning vapours and fine particles several hundred thousand kilometres in diameter into the biosphere, eliminating and incinerating all forms of life within its range.
The heat caused by the explosion was such that it accelerated the melting of the glaciers at the poles.
the seas, oceans, lakes and land was covered under several metres of ash.
this cataclysm of rare and unimaginable violence had brought death and desolation with it, leading to the decline of humanity and 99.9% of other existing forms of life.
several centuries later, within it and throughout the entire inner solar system, a mortuary silence reigned.
The once blue planet, once a blue planet full of life, the first and last stronghold of mankind, remained a dark, smoking, crackling star.
A desolate landscape could be seen on the surface of the planet; from supervolcanoes from which Magma, even hotter than the solar surface, was escaping, to rivers and lakes of liquid ethanol, to geysers that were releasing an unknown substance from the depths of the planet into space.
Huge buildings were still standing in the rubble, surviving impetuously to the weathering of time.
In the middle of the molten rock and conventional debris, one could see what would have been likened to the trees of ancient times, one of those that once proliferated on this planet.
This tree seemed out of the ordinary.
No form of life could survive or even survive here due to the high temperatures.
The earth was so arid that the water seemed to have evaporated for millions of years,
the pressure exerted on the ground by the tree from its mass was such that the earth's crust was cracked on all sides and seemed likely to collapse at any moment.
But the tree remained, as if it had freed itself from the passage of time.
it did not seem to be affected by the constraints of gravity, it even seemed to "cancel it out".
it seemed to be immune to the effects of time, corrosion, space, wind and any external damage that might affect it.
it remained impassive to this hostile territory as if the turmoil caused by this environment was none other than the agitation of a harmless infant.
Its turquoise-blue leaves of a diameter comparable to that of several colliding buses reacted to the minute variations and changes in air pressure, and as a result, at least one of them broke off, creating a shock wave and a deafening din as it reached the ground several kilometres downstream.
A few seconds later, as if to replace the lost one, a new leaf was born, reaching maturity in several minutes.
Could this be a form of accelerated regeneration?
Anyone would have asked the question, this tree defied all the laws of physics and logic, it seemed to come from somewhere else, like a film from a science-fiction book by Charles Berlitz...or from another world (??)
Its peak was several kilometres high and reached the former stratosphere.
it had roots with a circumference several times larger than that of a herd of pachyderms and covered the entire planet, reaching its centre where they sucked up the little "substance" that still remained in the inner core of the planet.
In the midst of this immensity, this chaos, one could observe in the trunk of the tree what looked like an egg(??) a seed (??).
99.9% of the matter sucked up by the roots converged towards this seed, only 0.1% of the nutrients (??) was destined for the tree itself.
The tree seemed to be a kind of incubator whose only purpose was to protect and develop its infant until it reached a certain maturity...
