Ye Shall Be As Gods? – Class 9, Period 3
On the walls today were several blown up pictures of Gnosis. Juli was mildly irritated with the pictures, they weren’t the quality she was used to working with, but really it was the best she’d been able to do.
Getting her computer which, like her, had come from the far future, to work at all with a printer from the current period of time had been a battle and a half. It would do. She eyed her class, counting heads, and waiting for as many of them to be seated as were showing up today. At least, and here she was mildly amused, there were no sparkle-balls in her class this week.
“We’ll be talking about monsters today,” Juli said, “the pictures on the walls are monsters from my home universe. We called them Gnosis. Their chemical composition is that of mere table salt and water—and their touch is enough to turn a human to salt. In very rare cases though, for whatever reason, a human who is touched by a Gnosis is turned not to salt but into a Gnosis themselves. They are not natural. They were drawn into my home universe by a madman.” Joachim Mizrahi.
Her husband. Juli’s eyes narrowed slightly but that was all the reaction that showed.
She clasped her hands together in front of her. “We have discussed genetic mutation before, but in this case I am not interested in those mutations that have been used for good. Monsters, by very definition, are destructive.”
“What monsters are there in your worlds? Why would you consider them to be monsters? What, in your experience, would you figure is the reason anyone would create monsters? These are your questions for today. Group up, however you will, and go over them, please.”
[Wait for the OCD is up! Yay!]

I must admit, I was not expecting ... those things. On the screen. How was your midterm?
