Traveller Inceptio

Just when you thought the Traveller project to send researchers into the past was cancelled, one of Britain’s best-kept secrets is now out of the bag as the first Traveller, Mike Hurley, returned for the second time.

What’s that? You ask. A second time?

This has been a project wracked by conflict, especially when the media is involved, because the media wasn’t even told when Hurley, the world’s first Traveller, returned just over a month ago.

It seems that Saxon Traveller, the audacious project to send researchers back a thousand years to Saxon Aengland, is now a civilian project under strict military jurisdiction. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

That means the renowned academic who created and now runs the project, Professor Adrian Taylor, hasn’t been permitted to announce much of the Traveller progress to the media because the government and military has told him not to.

How do we know this?

Well, Professor Taylor has, in the interests of the public, given us the exclusive to the story. Our camera was on hand when the Traveller, SAS Sergeant Mike Hurley, returned from his second mission to Saxon Aengland.

“Traveller was never meant to be a political football,” explained Professor Taylor.

“Traveller is a quest for knowledge by talented young men who’ve risked their lives as they experience Saxon society in Aengland a thousand years ago.

We’ve been able to provide some news on Michael Hunter’s exploits, but have been prohibited from releasing so much more,” said Professor Taylor.

And what of this footage?

“The Minister of Defence determines the actions of our Travellers to be part of national security and not in the public realm,” insisted Professor Taylor.

“I am absolutely sick of this. Traveller is funded by the owners of the Transporter, being Helguard Security and Woomera Technologies, and was set up as a civilian research project. We use members of Special Forces because they are the most appropriately trained candidates for the role of Traveller researchers.

“Now the military seeks to control not only the results, but the project as well. This is not going to happen,” explained Professor Taylor.

“Saxon Traveller is an academic project and the results, all results, will be in the public domain. My academic colleagues and I have a raft of important papers under way and we have copious footage that, once it is sorted, will be made available to the media.”

Military attaché for the project, Captain Helen Murdoch, and the office of the Minister of Defence, Lady Maureen Paddington, were both unavailable for comment.
