The past was known to them; they used it and ruined other lives.
>>> The accident <<<
Christopher's son of sons of sons, leader of the 7th league cult, never loved anything; he only led the faction to greatness. He colonized the nations and prayed the snake would help them with the galactic core.
The society he borough became nigh. Many rebellions of the cult-followed, what he thought were followers were traitors. What he thought was his were others.

And so, he got betrayed by everyone and grounded into the deep Larsenthon's abyss. Everything ceased, the cult dropped from billions to thousands.
The world forgot Larsenthon and gave it only a myth. The Greeks laughed, the Egyptians jumped, humanity joined.
After millennia, the historians left decades of writings to burn. They thought they were the only humans to have boomed in billions; what they forgot was the old days.
But they were smart, smarter than old. They brought fascinating new elements to the world, the telephones, the televisions, the cars, and the scary nucleus.
The world was better than it never was until someone discovered the hole.
