Alternate Universe Today: Babylon 5 Fan Fiction July/August 1999
B5 Creative List - July/August 1999 - complete list

The Babylonian Cycle - Challenge
Idea: during the 3262 period, we see a religious order whose
central text seems to be an Arthurian type recounting of the events of
Babylon 5. 1500 years later, humans have regained the same level of
technology as was held in 2262, and a group of anthropologists, historians,
and linguists are piecing this book back together.
The Challenge: write a story or fragment that could have been in the book.
It can be based on an episode, a character study, an original idea (though
please indicate if this is the case), a race, etc. Anything you want. The
only limitation is that it must be written an Arthurian/mythological style.

He will follow her.

Into Death?
