((so yeah I moved this chapter over to book 2.... the eventual launch of book 3 is going to be a flop lol))

Here, have a sneak peak at the upcoming chapter 7 (mostly so there isn't just an empty book sitting here lol):

—---------------Chapter Seven - Preparation ------------------

The Chosen Home-World, or just Home-World for short. Boom that was easy (it only took 1,000 years).

My V.R. universe had become the largest part of the growing kingdom. My perfect Synthetic Multi-verse, gathering souls and providing them with a safe environment to thrive, but it was still entirely dependent on magi-tech.

To avoid losing myself in my dream again, I connected my lucid dream pendant to my soul-trap. My dream was integrated into my growing V.R. universe, populated by citizens of the chosen kingdom. But there were people from my past, and souls that could not be reacquired with simple magi-tech exploitation.

Time travel was no longer possible. I assumed it had something to do with Infinity reconnecting with the multi-verse; Like some kind of paradox prevention system had recently been put in place.

I remembered Quin, and the space station that we had been transported to, 1,000 years in the future… Which was actually present day. Soon our self imposed non-contact policy would soon be coming to an end.

As we prepared for deep space travel Emalts' living wood-like spaceship attached itself to The Boss, and integrated itself like equipping the massive organic vessel with plant armour. It sprouted new drives and new modules, and even seemed to create hybrid systems. The interior of the resulting conglomerate space vessel was constantly shifting over the next few weeks. It would not have taken that long to reach the space station we intended to revisit, however we had to wait until the specific stardate that we had previously visited; As to avoid making contact with our past selves.

Upon arriving at the space station we quickly detected a familiar presence. We docked our newly developed vessel with the space station and made our way toward the same gathering area we had 1,000 years prior, or maybe a few days depending on your perspective.

Once there we came across Murgil and Quin already deep in conversation. I was able to gather that Quin had been stranded in a pocket of his universe severed from the multi-verse many eons ago. Quin was able to use the last dwindling sections of his home-universe to travel in time. But once his universe had completely receded, he no longer had any method of moving through time.

Furthermore he explained that he brought us to this time and place because it was imperative that this specific timeline not be disturbed. He thanked us for preserving this specific timeline explaining that he likely would have been erased completely had we altered the path of events that he had anchored his final temporal incarnation to.

Next I informed Murgil of my plan to re-establish Chaos within’ Infinity. He assisted me in the development of many systems to improve the moderation of the soul-trap integration with Lucid and the kingdom’s V.R. universe. But no matter how hard we searched we could not find Chaos within the system. We searched the logs and even had Halina assist, and it seemed I had not captured his soul.

There was one explanation that Murgil seemed rather fond of. He believed that the time pathways I attempted to use did not travel in one direction. He believed that my foolish attempts to gather souls from the past could have caused souls to be diverted into alternate timeways.
