lyrics

Han Mi:

Although now beyond help, Xander had written down this new bio-science in carefully explained chapters with a word of caution to never study beyond chapter 7. The notebook solved the riddle of extreme flesh and body manipulation and after careful study, Jane could now alter human form in ways previously unimaginable.

The refugees meanwhile, were increasingly disturbed by the effects staying in the fairy realm were having upon them and were worried for their long term sanity. After careful deliberation they decided to head back to New Albion, but first, each was bio-altered according to their wishes, creating a fantastical, mutated army dedicated to retaking and claiming the park.

Jane:

Home, i wish i was home again
Somewhere i could lay my head on down
Home, i wish i was home again
Somewhere safe, to set my burdens down

Shanty Town Residents:

We’ve got flesh that's been remodeled
Bodies you will not believe
We’ve got claws and wings all kinds of things
grotesque and odd and sweet

We’ve got bones in shapes unheard of
Tech that you could never hack
And someone’s been sleeping in our bed
And we’ve come to take it back


*Whole bunch of mayhem*

Han Mi:

A group of soldiers surrounded Jane. She knelt down on one knee, hand touching the ground.

She looked up at them. And smiled.

*Mayhem times heccery*

Jane:

Home, i wish i was home again
Somewhere i could lay my head on down
Home, i wish i was home again
Somewhere safe, to set my burdens down

You cannot have it
you cannot take our home
you cannot have it
you go one day alone

You cannot have it
you cannot take our home
you cannot have it
you go one day alone


Shanty Town Residents:

We are flesh that is the future we are hybrid and tech and bone
This park is sovereign country and its borders they are closed
We are made of flesh and magic and a little part machine
We will paint right here a new land such as you have never seen

We are bio evolution we are science gone insane
We are things you couldn't dream of nor the gods to which you pray
We’re the next step of the species, we’re the future being born
And this border you don't cross unless your children want to join

...

Han Mi:

Thus, did the victorious refugees form the independent colony of Xandoria within the borders of the central New Albion park, led by their warrior cyborg princess, Jane.

Paul Shapera Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Cama’s attempt to commune with higher beings failed; she only found Decadent Dottie. Together they roamed, indulging in dangerous forms of psycho-neural self-exploration which Cama hoped would present the key to her people’s further evolution. It only led to her destroying her people so that one of their pets could evolve. She sat in her former civilization's rubble and listened to Paul Shapera. ... more
