welcome to the main timeline! for the first time since... well, i won't say it.

I have been tasked with stopping Greief (NO, you may not come here. This is set in the main timeline, where you are barred from entering.)
He's been destroying everything, as a harbinger of pain and disorder...

I.. can't trust anyone anymore.

I sit aboard Little Ruta, who was built to defend Kiruna Campus. Inside, I watch the endless waterflow turn her inner cogs, expressing my thoughts to the machine...
Isn't there any way to stop this? Can't anythign put my insecurites to rest?

...

someone, please...

I don't like that I had to exile him from the timeline... I regret some of the choices I've made. What if I had done things differently? That's... is that the reason the timeline crystal was given to me? There must be a reason for why I was given these powers... and it seems that I've been too harsh...

I wish to help this timeline, but I'm not sure the utilitarian approach I chose was the right one. Should I un-exile him? Destroy those sandbox timelines where I erased people from existence out of petty hormonal fits?

I never stopped to think about the long term effects of my actions. I impulsively interfered with other timelines that I had no need to meddle with, only creating unnecessary stress for myself. I thought I had the power to help, but I guess not.

I stand in a position if authority, constantly second guessing myself. Am i not good enough? What if something goes wrong? Was there more i could've done? Is this my fault?

Agnes: Mari, I know you want the hard truth answer from me. From the day you could speak, we seeked the truth. And I'd rather this come from me.

You abused your powers. Please don't be mad at me, but i must act as i did when you were a child. For your own well-being, give me the timeline crystal. That's how you control Marianne in other timelines. It seems to be the source of your issues right now. I will keep it safe, so no need to worry.

Agnes: Yes. That one is a casted construct, I belive. Or so I originally thought. She could be what's known as a "Staged Natural Hollow", where a hollow is delibertly set up to be natrualy conceived. The original was a result of an experiment... That was her childhood pet. It's a bit wholesome seeing the hollow with her hollow pet. It's cute.

Do you know the full story of her? I've known Golden for her whole life. I'm 10 years older than her, so i saught out to mentor her. it's why I'm one of the few people she fully trusts. She trusts me more than her own parents. They've... done some sketchy and unethical experiments. Ones that we both tried to tell them not to do. We are above that. I will not allow her to take that laser-guided amnesia drug that they made all those years ago. She was against the creation and usage of that.
I can tell you about that past. Like she's said, she's open to talk about the past. Unlike... him.

I acctualy have a few of the books. I'm yet to decipher all of them.
From what I've learned so far, the Sculjryians entered the Overworld, or "Tjra", as the Darfyrians call it... through little wormholes in the very ceiling of the cave-like dimension! Cool, right?

So, they entered through these wormholes in their dimenson, and they were able to access the overworld that way. That's what's onthe bottom floor of Kiruna Campus's "Deepslate School Backrooms Complex".
They built upwards, putting their advanced technology everywhere. It's crazy... if you go to any nearby Sculjryian city, you wouldn't be able to tell how technologically advanced they are. Product of their enviorment, I suppose. The records I found said that they ventured up here to explore and gather resources.
At some point, they came to higher ground, where they set up camp and cities. That's what the Deepslate School is for. I kinda want to find the towns in this area now.

Anyways.... some of them came tothe surface, and had to get back down before sunrise. It all goes to prove that no matter where someone is from, or what culture they grew up in, all people share common ground on one thing - curiousity.

So, as you might already know... our old friend Emmin, my lifelong 'sister' and coluage Agnes, and my Darfyrian allie, Azonea...

They all share some common DNA!

Generations and generations ago... but there is a common ansestor!.
I was accutaly able to track down one of those ancestors. All the Darfyrians that came up here had records of their DNA, all stored in a genetic database floor of the backrooms.

The common ancestor is someone who I belive to be named "Skrialynn Vasinago". They had three children, each taking a seprate path. The first stayed in Darfyra, and is Azonea's direct ancestor. The middle child came to the Overworld.

That middle child, who my research points to being an engineer named "Donivan" had four children in the Overworld with a Darfyrian biologist or nurse named "Reqilana" and two of those two children went on to become the ancestors of Agnes and Emmin. I think Emmin's ancestor, the third child of Donivan and Reqilana, went to the surface and had children with an overworlder. They still passed down records for a few generations to the database, and I was able to find the rest of the records in other ways.

Agnes is the decendant of the first child, Tanja. Tanja had children with another Darfyrian, who unlike her, was not born in the overworld. Agnes is more Darfyrian than Emmin, yet, Emmin seemed to have powers.

Then again, I have no family history of having literal god-like timeline powers.

So yes, I do have experience in dealing with pigs.
And "it" is indeed a pig.

Agnes, are you sure you have the strength? I did hook that alternative ancient energy source directly to the crystal, but... it responds to me like Little Rudania answers to you.
It can temporarily grant power to whoever is holding it, but I seem to have those powers naturally. I can still think hard enough and enter the Shadow Timeline in a lucid dream.

But thank you... for taking the largest burden from me. I can always rely on you!

I... am fine with him watching...just as I watch over the other timelines.

Although I do not have the Timeline Crystal in my possession, I sense a future...
It will be this Greief that I must face in my future, as the one from the Main Timeline is being held in purgatory... er... I mean... universal remediation

Our power has elevated to a much higher level... I can almost see in this premonition... several futures. One of those, we engage in a battle. Me versus him. To avoid any 'homeland advantage', we engage in one of the Timeline Breaches. My visions of his powers are unclear, but they are no doubt stronger than they are now, none-the-less greater or equal to my strength today.


He is not the only one who has grown stronger... I have become stronger as well.



  I am 32, he seems to be around 27. He's not the blurry teen from my 'vivid flashbacks'. He still resembles the young man that I used to know, brown hair and green clothing, but something has changed. I have changed as well. I seem to have a golden aura... it seems to merge with my mechanical marvel of a mount...

I call it the Corruption Timeline. I didn't put much effort into creating it, so this campus is the only part of the world that's been created. Everyone there still thinks that BENT is running, and they are giving sacrifices to me. They think that I am some sort of evil overlord now.

Although, I have been going in as a corrupted version of Marianne and messing around with them.

What was Agnes thinking when she gave me the crystal back? I was visibly under some sort of influence...

That universe is suffering, and it's my fault! I'm getting carried away, relising how fun it is to reak havoc on the world when I'm not the one living in that tormented world. I may be starting to see why Greief does what he does...
