The Butterfly Effect

Embedded is a short story from my youth, by Ray Bradbury.  (It is a little heavy; not good for late night reading.) The theme of this story will be in play for our October LARP where we will relive history, but we will be on a tangential timeline where someone “stepped on the butterfly.”  Should be a rich setting for adventure!
