Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Panel 1
The Pillars and 'Nancy' have arrived at the other side of the portal. The space is low-light. Here we just see the characters standing in front of the portal and looking around. The portal is flanked by small statues of cherubim on pedestals, as a hint of what's to come.
Enrique: Is this supposed to be the Ambassador's office?
Lorelei: Looks more like some kind of art museum.
Panel 2
Reversing view, Mordy appears, walking towards them from several meters away. We get a good look at the room festooned with statuettes, chandeliers, paintings with ornate frames, vases, and other decorations. Another figure can be seen in shadow behind him.
Mordy: My friends! Welcome to my ambassadorial parlor.
Panel 3
Cut back to view the Pillars, exchanging side-eyes while Alyss speaks for the group
Alyss: A parlor? Well, it's certainly not what I expected.
Alyss: Anyway you don't look much like a spider, so I guess …
Panel 4
Cutting back again, we see Mordy's 'secretary' is a tall, male, very athletic 'spyder.' We can see a bit of Alyss' head from behind in foreground right
Alyss: Ah … my mistake.
Mordy: Ah yes, this is my secretary, Miles Stacey.
