Ok, this clears up some of the confusion I had from Part 1. It was Ker’s nanotech, and I guess he was sent as a repair man to the obelisk. That makes sense.
I think in that fourth paragraph, you should italicize Ker’s thoughts. As it stands now, it looks like you’re switching between third person past tense and first person present tense.

I agree on the italics suggestion. I find that italicizing comm traffic or internal monologue is a useful device for separating who’s saying what. Another real good post…Dreanna is beginning to get a little interesting here. I’m reminded of The Matrix, when Neo first begins to realize he’s The One.

Excellent suggestion on the italics bit. That paragraph troubled me too but I could find a way to correct it.
Not why didn’t I think of italics??

@Kev, I think you only want to italicize the first and last sentence of that paragraph. Those two sentences are internal monologue, while the middle sentence is exposition.

Last line here gave me chills. Well done, sir.

Oh boy. Very interesting. The last line does deliver chills. Can’t wait to see what kind of role she plays in all of this.
