Description

A quietly unsettling voice greets listeners as a head physician in a mental institution confronts the death of a longtime patient, No. 27. The narrator knows that the man’s passing is not ordinary; he and the deceased share an uncanny secret that lets the dead speak through a husk that is, to the narrator, merely a discarded tool. Their conversation reveals that the patient—once a daring scientist—has mastered astral projection and returned from a distant world, Palos, to continue his research on the spirit’s power over flesh.

The story unfolds as the physician explores the implications of such a bond, delving into occult studies, twin souls, and the mysterious attraction of a celestial princess named Naia. Listeners are drawn into a blend of speculative science and metaphysical intrigue, where the boundaries between life, death, and distant star‑systems blur. The first act sets a tone of eerie curiosity, inviting you to ponder whether consciousness can truly transcend the body.
