Star Trek: “We, the Living Dead”
In this fan episode of the Television show Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, we discover the true essence of the Q Continuum, and meet some “living dead”: conscious beings (including humans) who reportedly died, but actually were saved and still live a prosperous life some place else in the universe, as well as “vampires”: individuals who never died and have instead remained alive since they were born.
A Star Trek episode to end all Star Trek episodes, (and, more generally - story to end all stories).

This episode will contain many elements, a lot of them are common in other stories of mine:
- Geek girls and female hackers.
- Computers, software, maths, logic and technology.
- Neo-Tech and Objectivism and related topics like individualism, greed and free economy.
- Modern life.
- History of the old world (Near East, Europe, etc.).
- Individualism, carving your own destiny and anti-Fatalism.
- Judaism, and Israel.
- Religion, Philosophy, and Mysticism.
- Friendship, love, and human relationships.
All of these will be integrated into one coherent (or completely incoherent) whole.
I consider this piece, my most far-fetched (or as we say in Hebrew: “הזוי” or “deluded”) piece yet. However, a Star Trek enthusiast who read it said he had read much more far-fetched Star Trek fan-fiction. A likely candidate for such a work, might be Harry Potter and the Return of James T. Kirk, which I have not read, but indeed seems extremely far-fetched.

- Psychological Bicameralism on the Wikipedia - explains about Julian Jaynes’ theory about the emergence of human consciousness (meaning “sentience” - not “awareness”) relatively late in history at around 1300 BC to 300 BC, presented in his book which makes a good read from the historical perspective and similar perspectives, whether or not it actually happened.
