On the unusual solar-system planet of Venus, a lone sorcerer named Venger lived alone with his flying black horse Nightmare. Venus was volatile but oddly peaceful, but Venger was bored there and wanted to travel to Earth for an adventure and left Nightmare on Venus to protect its timeless spirit.

VENGER: I shall take the form of a humanoid named Earth and settle in Boston and open some commerce-shop for romance.

Venger transformed into the diamond-merchant Amlan Satan, an Algerian-American US citizen who exchanged complex gems between Boston and Brussels. His enterprise was very lucrative and he was given the merchant-alias Scruffs, since he had the appearance of a real old-world pirate!

VENGER/AMLAN: I have a small sculpture-stone figurine of a beautiful blue-bird who've I've named Daydream!

Amlan (Venger) decided to become more pedestrian in Boston and used his diamond-assets to open/finance a nifty baseball-card store in the East Coast US city on Earth and named it Hobby-Baseball ('HB').

Amlan (Venger) met a widow named Georgina, an Algerian-American woman living in Boston and working as a legal consultant for the Boston law-firm Clark & Associates, involved in various NORAID activities for inter-religious advocacy in the United Kingdom.

Amlan married Georgina and made a beautiful portrait of their forest-wedding in New Jersey and kept it hung up on the wall of his Boston 'HB' baseball-card store. Georgina's daughter Esha, from her first marriage, loved the baseball-cards Venger (Amlan Satan) sold in this Boston card-store and also liked staring at the forest-wedding portrait hung on the wall of the Boston sports-cards store!

AMLAN: You're my little sapphire, Esha.

ESHA: Our Hobby-Baseball store in Boston is awesome...dad.

After the iconic Kansas City Royals won the 2015 World Series title in MLB baseball in America, Venger (Amlan Satan) decided to order an entire Topps set of Royals baseball-cards for his HB Boston cards-store and made this is primary showcase. The set was extremely valuable, and a collector-appraiser claimed it'd be worth at least $1M.

VENGER: These Royals Topps cards are so incredible and gorgeous, and Esha likes admiring them; customers are hypnotized!

GEORGINA: I bought Amlan my hubby a beautiful comic book Aquaman sliver-gem wrist-watch for his b-day.

Amlan, Georgina, and Esha attended the Boston St. Patrick's Day parade together and took some iPhone snapshots for Venger (Amlan Satan) to eventually print-out on his HB cards-store laptop-printer and hang it on his wall, next to his forest-wedding portrait. During the St. Patrick's Day parade in Boston, Amlan/Venger kissed Georgina and told her all his Earth daydreams were coming to fruition; he'd received the one thing he'd lacked in Venus --- culture.
