An Introduction,
The Documentarian
Before we go o...,
... an introduction is in order. Both to me, as well as to the nature of the world of worlds we all exist within.
Only first, it’s important for you to know that I’ve been around longer than most. Because of this, over the ages I’ve seen many things. Much of it mundane, thus forgettable, yet other things, due to their fantastical nature, I will never forget.
​
As for my name, I’d rather not say. Besides, who I am doesn’t really matter. What I will say though, is that I am a documentarian. What I mean by this is, well, you might say that I’m a hunter and gatherer of stories, which is true, yet this doesn’t quite sum up exactly what I do. To clarify, I guess you might also say that it is my job to identify, and record, the specific events which tie significant stories together, doing this with the hopes of creating a proper narrative. I do this so that future scholars, whom, years from now, with looking back at the past with the hopes of gaining some insight into what brought things about, will have an easier time following what actually happened, thus making it easier for them to unearth important lessons. In other words, if I was to work on a farm, it would be my job to separate out the wheat from its chafe, leaving the unneeded historical chafe on the field. Doing this with the hopes of creating a tasty cereal which a scholarly mind would like to consume.
​
Now, as per the physical nature of the ME, you see, I’m not going to pretend that I am an immortal, although you might come to think of me that way. What I will say is that I’m one of the ancients, and, as I hinted earlier, that I am older than most. Because of this, on account of my work, it has afforded me a long term view of our worlds. Interconnected worlds; worlds with many levels, some of these worlds existing beyond, some hidden within. In each case they are worlds where multiple realities, often contrasting, even diametrically opposed, can, and do exist. I know this, as I’ve made it my business to study these worlds. Doing what I can to figure out, and to explain, how these overlapping worlds all fit in.
