Science fiction. The immortal who stole

Never! This had never happened before, and today it had washed away every hope and every prospect of hope. Because his ravaging rage had laid siege around the fortress of hope. 

Hope, you might argue, is an unseen virtue, something that has no physical existence. And for such a virtue the need for a fortress is unnecessary. So how come in this case hope has a fortress to itself. That unfortunately was decimated by his brutal and reckless force? And who is he?

It is an old story. Long time ago when hope was being assigned the status of a virtue in the highest realm of the universe, and it was being associated with every moment of time. There were a few moments of time that somehow remained pure. Moments of time, with no virtue or value assigned to them other than time. They were the purest moments of time and nothing else.

And these moments of time that carried no virtue with them, except that of time. Were stored in one of the secret locations of the universe, and just like these pure moments of time, there were a few beings who did not possess many human-like traits, because the universe wanted them to bear no weaknesses. None at all!

These beings roamed freely in all realms of the universe and they possessed endless knowledge about the workings of the universe. They knew almost everything about the universe. And the universe willingly revealed to them its secrets. They even knew what holds the universe together and how. Because the universe had no reason to fear them since they did not possess any weakness, it was very unlikely that they would misuse this infinite reserve of knowledge that the universe had gifted them.

They lived in this universe for many years. Everything seemed perfect. The universe regarded them to be its ultimate posterity. And the universe loved them. It had been very generous to them. It had created them as pairs, who lived forever together. Free to travel anywhere in the universe and love each other eternally.

After a lot of thought, the universe had decided to offer them this unique virtue. That of love and enjoying life. Which they did! In them it existed as a sense which was a virtue as well. And when a sense like love develops into a virtue, it achieves its culmination. The universe had indeed blessed them infinitely!

Until that fateful day!

When one of these immortals happened to enter the zone of the universe. Where the universe had stored these pure moments of time. He felt a little different. The immortal experienced a feeling that he had never felt before. Something about which he wanted to know more.

Because it made him feel a new sensation that can only be compared with cosmic or divine bliss. A pleasure that is only felt in these pure moments of time, which are free from every virtue and every sensation. Whatever that might be.

So the immortal stole a few moments of time from this zone and he began behaving differently. He began considering himself equal to the universe and the limitless energy that gives rise to its infinite conscience. 

The universe had realised that the pure moments of time have been stolen, but it wanted to know how the immortal would act. How he would behave with his partner? What feelings he will harbour for his fellow immortals and what will the very existence of the universe’s infinite conscience mean to him?

When the immortal entered his realm, his partner greeted him. She embraced him, she felt his heart beats and she asked him where he had been, because they usually went everywhere together. Just like other immortals.

He seemed to avoid her questions and he behaved differently. He chose to talk about something else, and he told her his stories about the cosmic journey that he had just completed. But he avoided mentioning about the zone from where he had stolen these pure moments of time.

Many cosmic days passed by and his partner began noticing changes in him. He could do things that other immortals could not even imagine about. He could even perceive feelings that were not associated with the virtue bestowed upon them by the universe.

And one day, he held his partner in his arms and asked her passionately, “What if we control the universe , time and other immortals? Can you imagine how powerful that will make us? And what if I tell you I can do this, then will you side with me or with the other immortals?”

His partner stood there with her mouth wide open, with a well pronounced look of strangeness. Because she was unable to understand what her immortal partner was referring to and what he meant by words like : control, powerful, taking sides. These words did not mean anything to her, because the vocabulary of immortals was tied to their exclusive traits and single virtue gifted to them by the universe.

She could not even imagine what this meant and what the immortal was talking about. So, she embraced him and kissed him. But the immortal repeated the same question, and he kept repeating it, again and again. 

After sometime the immortal took her to the discreet corner of the universe where nothing existed, not even time, and he used another new word. That his partner did not understand.

“Whatever I do now, TRUST me!”

She could not understand the word trust. Because in the universe that coexisted with the immortals, the universe trusted them unconditionally. And it knew, with their traits and only virtue, they will never do anything that will put its own existence at risk.

She looked at the immortal, like the most innocent thing. Eyes twinkling with the shine of billion moons, that reflected serenity and affection, an endless sparkle of love in its purest form. Innocence that cannot be defined in words, because the dictionary developed by humans does not have the words to capture the exactness of this form of innocence and beauty.

As she offered him this look of innocence, he moved her to the zone of pure moments of time. And there he asked her to take a few moments of time and hold them. As she held these moments of time, she realised the meanings of words like : trust, control, power; and now she also understood what the immortal meant by controlling other immortals.

In this state of confusion and new experiences they both moved to their realm and looked at each other with endless questions about everything. Even about their own existence.

To know the answers to all their questions they began bathing in this zone where the universe had stored all pure moments of time.

And one day, they developed a superlative form of conscience. They already possessed conscience, but it was defined by the universe with a scrupulously thought exactitude. Where it always revolved around their traits and the single virtue possessed by them. But now their conscience had grown limitlessly. It had developed beyond the limit of their traits and their single virtue. 

When it was about to evolve into infinitely supreme conscience, they both felt something was missing. Something that helps sets of infinities to achieve a cohesion with other sets of infinities; in order to create that grand and ultimate reservoir of infinity- the conscience that is infinity itself. The ultimate conscience of the universe.

They struggled for many cosmic years to realise what was this thing that was keeping them from achieving this universe-like supreme conscience. 

And one day the immortal realised he was relying too much on positivism. And there was something that the universe was hiding somewhere. Somewhere where nothing existed. But where was this somewhere? He wondered!

He contemplated for more than 10000 cosmic years and then he found out the answer. It was “Hope!” that the universe was hiding from all immortals.  

Because positivism believes in everything that can be proven scientifically or logically. But it applies only to those facts which already exist. Because one cannot prove what does not exist and or has no virtue at all. And it is only through hope, that one can even go beyond the infinity and become “The Creator!” Just like the universe. Capable of creating what does not exist, but also able to destroy what exists!

At this moment the universe felt it was time to end the reign of the immortals. All due to one selfish act of a single immortal! 

But many philosophers might argue that how can one blame the immortal because he had no sense of good and bad. So how can he be blamed for this act?

That is a genuine argument. However, when the immortal gained infinite virtues, he also gained conscience which was nearing infinity. One of the qualities he developed based on these new acquisitions was the quality of “Judgement!”

It was here that the immortal failed. He allowed himself to corrupt his own judgement by trapping himself in an infinite loop of irreducibility. 

And the universe could have acted that very day, when the immortal stole the pure moments of time. But the universe wanted to give him every chance to free himself from these negative loops of irreducibility.

Because irreducibility exists in sets of qualities, with multiple variants, and placing a check on these endlessly and self factoring loops of irreducibility is very much possible. But the immortal was obsessed with one goal, to redefine the universe and become the creator of new Big Bangs.  

So, the immortal did not lack judgement, he lacked prudent and conscious judgement. 

At this moment the universe entered into self preservation mode and turned into a contemplative entity. It lasted for 1000 cosmic years. Then, finally the universe acted. It did not kill all the immortals, it developed a new realm for them. A realm that is beyond all realms of the universe. Completely isolated. Located there where the main source of the universe’s conscience lies.

But it had to exile the renegade immortal in a realm that existed in the lowest ranks of all realms of the universe. And the universe allowed him to take his partner with him, who willingly agreed to be with him forever. She somehow was still closer to the pure and original form of conscience. And only time shall tell how she would evolve with her immortal partner, who had completely lost his original and pure form of conscience. But she chose to be beside him always and through every tribulation!

And the supreme conscience of the universe returned to its job of managing the universe and its realms.

Over time these two immortals populated their realm with their children, and multiplied. But over many centuries the immortal had learned where the universe stored good hopes. A reservoir of hopes that always leads to good feelings and good fortunes. And adds that missing link that would help his conscience become as supreme and as infinite as that of the universe.

The immortal with his huge army, breached the gate of the realm that was higher in rank and raided the fortress where good hopes were stored. 

The universe knew that being an immortal who suffers from negative loops of irreducibility, he would raid the fortress of hope one day.

So it had already created multiple and misleading projections of the fortress, thus hiding the main fortress of hope. And whichever fortress the immortal entered or thought to be real, would bear hopes which would only lead to one hope, that of hoping again and again.

The immortal raided the fortress and left with one good hope. And now he and his clan of lesser immortals keep hoping. That one day they will be reintroduced to the highest realm. But through this one good hope the universe offered them many gifts too, that of wisdom and will to never give up.

And it is my belief that when they have reached the end of negative loops of irreducibility it will open the gates of the highest realm for them. But from what I see, It is clear that it will take infinity for them to reach that state. Because the immortal and his clan are trapped in the addictive irreducibility of negative loops.

I, who happens to be the guardian of the fortress of all hopes, I have never been so sceptical about anything. Because hope cannot promote scepticism. But when the immortal raided the fortress of hope. In that moment I felt hopelessness. But thank the universe, I was saved because my real fortress of hope was not raided by the immortal.

Without it the universe will not be able to create new worlds, new universes, and it will then enter into a self isolation phase, where to protect its infinite conscience it will have no option but to destroy everything; and then with its preserved conscience recreate life from the single particle.

And it is possible that the universe might be pushed into this state by beings in the lower ranking realms, who suffer from negative irreducibility. If you want to know how, and when, then you must read the scifi novel titled: They Loved in 2075.

This scifi novel is about love, about self aware machines, about Earth that has become unbearably hot; it is about hi tech warfare and clash between three clans. Where one of the clans wants to seek control of the entire planet.

And this scifi novel tells a love story that is unlike any other scifi romance story, because the girl who is loved a lot by the main character in this novel, has lost her ability to feel human emotions. As a result she is behaving exactly like the female partner of the immortal.

But how did she become like this and what is blocking her ability to emote and feel like humans? To know, you must read the scifi novel, They Loved in 2075.

And this scifi novel raises a very good point:

Immortality can be achieved, both biologically and via technology as well. But is everyone fit to be immortal? Because the conscience of a true immortal will grow infinitely. And if the original conscience of this mortal, who now is an immortal, is corrupt. Then in advanced stage, this immortal is bound to be the victim of negative loops of irreducibility. At that point even the guardian of hope cannot save us, because the universe will have forsaken us!

For more, explore the scifi novel, They Loved in 2075!

And let us not forget. Past lies where it cannot be undone now. Our true power lies in changing the future by doing worthy acts in the present! The immortal needs to realise this. I wish he could read the scifi novel, They Loved in 2075. I really wish he could somehow read it and become the immortal with the conscience that does not want to compete with the infinite conscience of the universe. But wants to be the owner of conscience that has been freed from all possible loops of negative irreducibility.
