- Chapter 21: Visions (p2/2)
(translation by chid12)
- The Ancient Greeks tried to intervene
- For centuries, the ancient Olympians guarded our world and those from our alliances - nevertheless, few knew their true aim.
- Even while functioning secretly, they succeeded. And the First Catastrophe did not happen again - not for a very long time.
- Afterwards, with the repression of the ancient Olympics by the Roman Empire across many worlds, the multiverse suffered due to a dangerous sudden wave of new worlds. The worlds were constantly a majority, and without any great co-operative aspiration for restoring the co-ordination of the worlds.
- As a result, already by the early 19th century all but a few thousand worlds were destroyed, and the surviving worlds were mostly severely damaged.
- This was the new catastrophe.
- The agonothetai across the many worlds tried again to intervene. That helped, but there were too many important worlds still not part of the circle of allied worlds.
- In fact, Micha has visions with our own temporary omphaloi, he informs us that changes still happen - however still not at the scale of the first or the new catastrophe.
- We're staying for a time - but not for long. We are firmly decided to prevent the catastrophe happening again.
