Voyage To Eternity

In a near‑future North America, a grim ritual unfolds every 780 days: two hundred young men from each city are conscripted for a secretive “Nowhere Journey.” The selection is announced with cold ceremony, and the chosen are never heard from again, leaving families to wonder whether the mission is a sacrifice or a cruel hoax. Christopher Temple, a 26‑year‑old mechanic, faces the call while his girlfriend Stephanie clings to the hope of a quick marriage before he departs, even as riots erupt in the streets over the relentless drafts.

The story captures the tension of a society that has normalized loss, the quiet desperation of lovers on the brink of separation, and the unsettling mystery of a mission whose destination is deliberately concealed. As the countdown ticks down, readers are drawn into the intimate moments of fear and affection that precede the unknown voyage, setting the stage for a haunting exploration of duty, love, and the price of obedience.
