The Islands of Akamula

A story about how a distant primitive tribe is forced by war to sail across the sea to found a new home.

They arrive at a little archipelago, a group of five small islands dominated by a volcanic isle. Satirical hints about the exiles adventure, relating to an out-of-this-world influence, are present early in the story. But these end up in the discovery that an alien presence has actually taken up residence in the volcanic isle.

Akamula develops into a well-guarded and prosperous trading enclave.

A small elite band is drawn into contact with the aliens. But the newcomers on Earth not only bring power to the Akamula community but also evil intention. Another band of Akamulans are determined to fight the aliens who have already killed some Akamulans who defied them.

Desperate, despite their growing supporters worldwide, the fighters on behalf of Earth's safety find that good Aliens make it known they are ready to come to the aid of the world threatened by evil aliens. The crisis that occurs ends in the destruction of the aliens.

But elsewhere on Earth, the aliens are tempting a certain intellectual human being in a prolonged dream. Bailey's dream or dreams has an apocalyptic element of prophecy. A wise woman from Akamula attempts to interpret what Bailey's dreams may portend.
