" In our universe Ponce de Leon is remembered for his fruitless search for the mythical fountain of youth But in an alternate universe his quest found something very different
- & very dangerous After his return to Spain bizarre rumors flew about what he had found there & who
- or what
- had come back with him" " Seventy-five years later in 1588 Spain sent a vast Armada of ships against England The English were confident that they could repel the threat
- but England&s fleet was annihilated by weapons shooting beams of fiery light weapons which seemed to employ the blackest of sorcery even if they were wielded by beings in holy monk&s garb" The Queen herself was forced to flee to the New World accompanied by her advisor Dr Dee whom some called a sorcerer & an odd fellow named Shakespeare hoping there to find the source of Spain&s powerful weapons But they would find matters there far stranger than they had expected such as meeting a grown woman who had been an infant only a year before & eerie tales of a gate to another world filled with beings who were not human
