Secure Erotic Times is pleased to
welcome Lord Pericles Curtis, the Councilor of Upper-World Security for the
City State of Atlantis
Thanks you for
honoring me with this interview, I’ll be happy to answer any questions I can
about the recent discovery of the hidden entrance to our City State and the
harrowing events that forced the collapse of the pyramid. Please keep in mind,
I am charged with the security of Atlantis.
Thank you Lord Pericles, I
will also have a few personal questions if you wouldn’t mind. You have a
charming smile Lord Pericles, I hope I haven’t embarrassed you?
Thank you, no, I
don’t embarrass easily, but I am a newlywed so my personnel answers may reflect
my need for privacy.
Understandable. We’ll begin
with questions about Atlantis first.
How did you become
Atlantis’ Councilor of Upper World Security?
Positions in
Atlantis are often hereditary, passed from father to son, or mother to daughter
and even father to daughter and so on. My mother was Head of Upper World
Security, as the oldest in the family, and interested in Atlantis’ security I
entered Atlantis’ military after college and earned the position as much as
inherited it.
From your mother? In the
upper-world that would be quite unusual.
As Atlantis becomes
more known to the upper-world, rather than only known to certain governmental
officials, I believe the people of the land will find we are different in this
manner. Truly, men and women are equal.
Might I ask, sir, what your
father does?
Yes, that question I
can answer, my father was a is physician and so is my younger sister, and
before you ask, my younger brother has just graduated to become a veterinarian.
You have need of
veterinarians?
Of course, we have
pets and animals in Atlantis and not all of them are aquatic.
Your revelation certainly
changes will the upper-world’s perspective somewhat. But to stay on the tract
set, can you give our readers a sample of what your duties entail.
I monitor the amount
of knowledge garnered by the upper-world curiosity seekers about Atlantis and
where it is located. This task generally is just that – monitoring, until
recently. When such a breach in our security occurs or is about to occur it is
my job and that of my squads’ is to seal it.
And Lord Pericles, just how
do you accomplish that?
We utilize several
methods depending on the seriousness of the breach. In the most recent, the
discovery by the archaeologist Jessica Carter, our leader had two choices. Ms.
Carter is now a permanent resident of Atlantis.
And what, in her situation,
was the other alternative?
One used only in the
most extreme cases, execution.
You would murder an
innocent person for stumbling onto your city-state?
Only if nothing else
could be arranged. You must understand, thousands of lives depend on our
concealment and we give every opportunity to a person in this situation to
relocate their lives and even that of their immediate family’s to a new life in
Atlantis.
How many, ah, executions
have you been responsible for Lord Pericles?
I have been in this
position for ten years and in that time – none. Before me, my mother was
responsible for one. She did everything in her power, but the individual was
set to expose not only Atlantis but put others at risk too! For such an
execution to take place it must be approved by our High Lord and Lady, seconded
by the ruling council and before it is carried out the subject is given several
chances to re-think their actions.
In regards to the newly
discovered pyramid/ entrance at Lake Okeechobee, what made it possible for you
to step in so quickly?
Lord Xerxes had
anticipated the discovery under the conditions of the Lake and prepared, we –
that is my squad and I were placed in position as United States Marines just
for that purpose. However we didn’t expect the person who found it would be Ms.
Carter. It was actually lucky – possibly fate, that it was her.
Now that the entrance is
gone, is there anyway another archaeologist could find their way to Atlantis?
Not from that site –
no.
You hint at others, are
there?
No. That one was a
trial by our ancient ancestors, and it failed. When Atlantis is ready to be
completely revealed we shall do so. I won’t be many more years.
Do your people fear our
people will dominate them?
No, that is the
least of our concerns.
You seem very confident.
I know Atlantis’
abilities and too, we are a passive people. We wish to live in our world in a
peaceful situation. We have no desire to make war, dominate others or
participate in a war. That isn’t to say we cannot defend ourselves.
Some governments would
consider that threatening. Is it?
Absolutely not! Just
a fact.
How did you feel about
protecting Ms. Carter when she was on the dig?
At first protecting
Ms. Carter was just an assignment that went with the protection of the site.
However, Ms. Carter is an extraordinary individual and we all, the squad and I,
sort-of adopted her. We have become very fond of her.
You grew up with Lord
Xerxes, and are in a distant way related. How close is your friendship to His
Grace?
Very close, now is
in-fact my brother-in-law. Before that we were good friends. Xerxes rarely
stands on formalities. Atlantis runs on a smooth system and requires
little strict government intervention, unless we have someone like the recent
traitor Marcus Trident trying to cause security problems.
That leads to one of my
final questions. I understand you were married the day Ms. Carter left Atlantis
in search of her parents and at the same time the traitor, Marcus, who was
trying to expose Atlantis stole parts of the protect grid and left as well.
What are your thoughts on that?
As you expect, we
were anxious to catch the traitor and horribly worried about Ms. Carter, ah,
Mrs. Kallias. By then it was a terrible situation.
I’m sure. Your wedding
night was put on indefinite hold because of it.
Well, not
indefinite, but delayed.
I have several more
questions I would like to ask, but I feel they would be violating the terms we
agreed upon concerning the security of Atlantis. The fact you have been willing
to admit the fabled lost world exists will probably not be believed by many of
our readers.
Thank you for your time,
Lord Pericles.
Thank you for
inviting me. When Atlantis is ready to re-join their brethren in the
upper-world, I’ll be happy to act as a liaison, let us hope that time will come
sooner rather than later. We have much we can learn from each other.
