SYNOPSIS
In a distant future, mankind has eradicated what had been identified as the root of all evil: Emotions. Pure Reason reigns supreme in a society of pure function and enlightenment. The Cause of reason does not allow for any deviation. Technology has been perfected to ensure an instant response to those classified as Emotives. History and language have been cleansed of everything inappropriate and dangerous. The caste system gives everyone the opportunity to contribute to the Cause to the best of their abilities. Procreation takes place in a Petri dish, freeing mankind of the constraints of relationships and gender-roles. Everyone knows what to do, what to think and how to act to function as a valuable member of society.
And then the Remoters came …
Deviants of the worst kind, not only harbouring emotions, but also acting upon them - abusing the very technology devised to eradicate their deviant behaviour for their own perverted ends ...
EXTRACT
Extract: (from Part I – Remoters – Chapter 1)
The clear autumn sky behind the Corrector's window disappeared when a projection
took its place. Andrak could not parse for several seconds what perceptions he was
subjected to. Subjects of clearly human descent engaged in unspeakable breaches of reason
before his eyes. Not only did they show clear signs of lesser emotions, they were engaged
in incomprehensible animalistic rituals, where even their bodies touched and ... merged.
It took Andrak all his powers of concentration to suppress the disgust welling up in him.
The Corrector scanned him, no doubt about that. This was a crucial moment to test his
ability to cope with the overwhelming. Andrak noticed shivers running up and down his
spine, a physical response he had not felt for a great number of years, long before his
training and conditioning had begun.
Clarity and Reason. Obtain and parse all information to assess the situation. Clarity and
Reason. Put the perceptions in their logical environment.
Andrak was thankful that the Corrector desisted from questioning him as to his level of
equanimity. He gave him time to recuperate from the shock.
"It is logical that you have difficulties parsing the images. Your non-emotional
response is exemplary. Let me proceed."
