THE NATURE OF TIME Imagine a perfect world. Imagine you as a God. You, the infinite self, existing across more than one timeline on more than one reality. Except this isn't God, it's you. We've long known the existence of parallel worlds and timelines and our successful track record in away missions is proof of that. We exist in more than one point in more than one time. How many points, and for how long? Our calculations say: everywhere, forever. We found God, and God is us. Imagine disappearing the next time you blink. One moment you're here, reading this memo, and the next you just disappear. This doesn't mean a cessation of existence - we at NanoTrust discovered how to make people disappear without a trace years ago and harnessed it as a source of energy. No, imagine disappearing in your entirety - your past accomplishments, your future endeavors, your current self being scrubbed from all possibility. Imagine the infinite Yous blinking abruptly out of existence with no trace and no proof. Not even a bloody smear or a pile of ash or a memory half-remembered. When our ancestors first discovered the power of the atom centuries ago, they said "We are now all bitches". Well, they didn't bank on discovering what we found. Why trade in the destruction of a city? Buildings can be replaced. People can be replaced. In another time they still exist. Why be that sloppy? Gentlemen of the board, I present to you our latest discovery: acausal erasure. Temporal scrubbing. Or in layman's terms, fucking deleting someone out of reality. No, God can't help you, and I can prove it. If our paratemporal telemetry is correct, we aren't the first to discover this. This means that someone, somewhere, found God and killed it. We now live in the history god abandoned. ---------------------------------------------------------------------"Glory to the Last-Born."

FeiH Posted September 24, 2017 Author Posted September 24, 2017 NSS CYBERIADRESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENTXENOSCIENCE DIVISIONIngrid Valera, XenoscientistNSS-CYB-RND-XNS-00210 Captain, I've read over the data files and they don't seem to make sense. CC faxed us saying that they don't have any records of an experimental research base called the Schwarzchild, and even asked if I was making this shit up. Honestly, where did you find these? None of these positions and departments make sense, and nobody named here even exists in NT's employment records. And I don't mean in the usual, "we're-firing-you-but-actually-killing-you" way. I mean in the "these people don't actually fucking exist, and neither does the ship, or these filing codes" way. If anything the gateway exploration wasn't a total loss. We found some bluespace materials with readings I've never seen before. But this? Maybe it was a prank, or maybe the clown snuck in and left fake records everywhere to fuck with you. I don't know. As of this moment, it all looks like really shitty science fiction. 2 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/11526-on-the-topic-of-what-does-and-does-not-exist/#findComment-95707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
