She lays paralysed in a hospital bed, too far from a magic river. When she finally grabs the chance to teleport in her paraplegic state, a volcano explodes, ten years earlier than the prophesy. She must find that key to lead villagers to a safer future.

In a world devastated by an alien invasion, Maki, a courageous boy with a secret, holds the key to stopping the Chairman's merciless campaign. With his future homeworld destroyed and a new life in a distant solar system, Maki's father urges him to keep the truth hidden. But Maki's determination knows no bounds. Against all odds, Maki infiltrates the secret service's teleportation room, stumbling upon classified information that propels him into the role of the youngest agent in their ranks. His heroic deeds garner praise, but deep down, he faces an agonizing dilemma: he cannot save his world alone. Bound by a promise to his father, Maki finds himself torn between loyalty and the dire fate of an entire population. Will he dare to defy his father's trust and seek the help he desperately needs? Or will he sacrifice everything in a race against time, knowing that the chairman's massacre will unfold once more? Invaders of the Firesnake is a thrilling tale of bravery, sacrifice, and the resilience of a young hero determined to rewrite the course of history.

Book Description
"In the Beginning when nothing was created yet, God created NUMBER ... " Classical Occultism - i.e. Spiritual Tradition - very often rests on imitation of old usages and forgotten rituals - or on texts and images the inner (i.e. esoteric) content of which is recognized only by Initiates. This most typically applies for old sacred scriptures where cosmic and supracosmic processes are commented on under the veils of ciphers, myths, pseudo-history, and tales about countries or family clans. Creation myths of all cultures throughout space and time most clearly illustrate this fact: They report how a God - or a community of gods - conjure "out of nothing" a Universe along with its physical and spiritual processes that are, usually, consciously perceived again only by Initiates. Modern Science since the century of "Enlightenment" has always tried to supplant such myths by so-called "objective" discoveries and "facts". However, it has become clear, more and more, that those "scientific" views are just another myth - but which remains blind to the essence of things, namely: to what we call Spirit, Light and Life. The popular myth of the "Big Bang" - so typical for noise and aggression in our modern world - is the grossest cankerous outgrowth thereof. The present book brings a Genesis in twelve Theses, in a modern language on the basis of the simplest symbols ever. Its elucidations by P. Martin, occasionally using some neologisms for relations never described before, include the paradigmata of oldest myths, but in the meantime formulate a consequent synthesis of modern Physics and classic spirituality: It also shows where the fundamental Hermetic laws come from; how divine idea-forms grow into material realities; how the Kingdoms of Nature came forth - and the principles of the spiritual Path of Transfiguration leading to the redemption of Humanity. Besides the Aquarius Genesis this book contains two tales in a typical mythic style, making visible the inner Plan of the Universe, along with a scenic dialogue and a classic philosophical treatise: "About the Essence of Being" is a modern theory of ideas which - authored 60 years ago - already achieves to reduce all processes to vibration cycles, and to Energy. Numerous pictures, some of them full-page, and in-depth Notes explaining further the text and images complete this book. An international review comments: "Thus it must be: Old Truths of the Past are being confirmed by the new Truths of today !"
