Alright folks here are the first two DRAFT chapters of the alternate ending to Ra. Let me know what you think. Any or all of this could be final; anything could be changed if the feedback is compelling enough. Read on or don't https://qntm.org/files/ra/end2/happen.html … https://qntm.org/files/ra/end2/phree.html …
* Not sure what to change regarding Rachel. * Nat as protagonist is 100% intentional (see earlier chapter title, "Protagonism"), so glad that's working. * This is probably not Hatt's final appearance/mention.

* Sixty seconds seems reasonable to me, it's a crowded opener. * King's idea of fixing this (the only thing he can realistically do) is to go to Sirius, muster an army and come back. Perhaps I should clarify his thoughts.

Not certain what to change with Rachel either. It feels anti-climatic, but not exactly intentionally. There isn't much impact, which might come down to the other characters' reactions more than anything else. Magically fixing everything got a chuckle, but maybe not what you want.

Hatt just feels a bit.. Inserted(?) here. The parenthesised paragraph doesn't quite flow with the rest of the action, but I'd hate to get rid of the exploding world line.
