looking, long-armed, small eyed non-human looking
right at him, which frightened him beyond belief. He began praying
out loud for deliverance from this evil demonic being, the Ragnor
looked at each other, not understanding what this foolish human was
doing, and then one spoke in a weird sounding mechanical voice, “We
are the Ragnor; we are not from this planet. We gain knowledge from
experimentation on others. We would like to know what you know
about the Terrans.”
    The man was still frightened, but had the
wits about him to say, “I know not of any Terrans. Are they
anything like thee?”
    “Terrans are nothing like us, but they are
like you. They are on your planet to get your species to help them
defeat us. We have determined your species is too backward to help
the Terrans. We will, however, continue our experiments on you and
the others. When do you expect another ship to come with
supplies?”
    “This is all so confusing to me. I have no
idea when England will send us more supplies; Sir Francis Drake
pledged he would return though. His ships could not possibly be a
match for whatever thou are, please let me go and I won’t tell a
soul.”
    The Ragnor response was to put the man back
to sleep and experiment with his DNA and brain. They transported
him back to his bed five hours later, erasing his memory of this
experience. They transported others aboard and did the same thing
for more than six months. Some of the inhabitants though, claimed
they had nightmares of weird creatures experimenting on them, that
this island was evil, and that the colonists needed to leave
Roanoke Island and go to one of the neighboring islands to get away
from these demons. So, the leader giving in to pressure, wrote
Croatoa on a post, since that was the name of the neighboring
island, and the colonists left the island. When people from England
eventually come back to Roanoke, all they find is the writing on
the post, but when they attempted to go to Croatoa, a storm
prevented them from being able to get there. Eventually, the former
residents of Roanoke left the island for the mainland and mixed
with the local Native American tribes, settling in the Appalachian
Mountains to hide from the rest of civilization. For centuries
after that, people in the Appalachian region claimed to see blue
eyed Indians with blonde hair who always avoided strangers, until
the late twentieth century when DNA testing confirmed these people
may have been the ancestors of the lost colony of Roanoke. The
Ragnor though, decided to continue on a twisted mission to mess
with the humans of Earth under the Terrans’ noses.
    The Ragnor were a species that were
militaristic for their entire existence. Once they learned the
secrets to space travel and learned of other space-faring species
in the galaxy, they turned their attention on going to war with
those species. The Ragnor quickly learned how to disguise their
ships and their warriors through cloaking technology and then
attacked unsuspecting ships for no reason other than that they
could. Ragnor scientists even managed to develop the means to cloak
their entire solar system, including disguising all energy
transmitted by their sun, so no one could ever find the Ragnor
homeworld and take revenge. Eventually, they even decided, that if
they could cloak themselves, then what was to stop them from
abducting members of other species and then experimenting on them.
The Ragnor had no reasons for conducting the experiments on other
species; they did it because they felt they were superior to
everyone else in the galaxy, and really, who was going to stop
them? So, they started with the Talgerians and continued on from
there to experiment on every species they ever encountered,
eventually finding the Terrans, who were oblivious to what was
going on in the galaxy when they first traveled the stars.
    The Terran government publicly treated the
rumored abductions and the occasional attack on their ships as a
small nuisance,
