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.
