"Veni, Vidi, Vici" (I came, I saw, I conquered) – Julius Caesar

Date: 27 June 3080
In the Xytherion Nexus territory, the most advanced region on planet Zorvalis in the Universe Aetherium.

The Universe Aetherium is a five-dimensional universe evolved from the three-dimensional planet Earth. Aetherians, the inhabitants of Xytherion Nexus, are the most advanced humans descended from Homo sapiens a thousand years ago. They resulted from humanity’s space exploration via wormholes using the spacecraft Gula Melaka 3.0.

A wormhole is a theoretical tunnel connecting distant points in space, making what would take millions of years in normal travel possible in hours. Earth was destroyed a thousand years ago due to human overexploitation of natural resources.

Aetherium is the most advanced universe—not only transcending time but also crossing into other parallel universes, a creation of the Almighty.

Aevran Rayan, prince of the Aetherium King and ruler of planet Zorvalis, enjoyed the beauty of Xytherion Nexus through his mind, which could travel anywhere.

In Universe Aetherium, the most powerful thing is not wealth or intelligence, but a kind heart. Whoever possesses it becomes emperor.

“Aevran Rayan, we need to talk,” came a photon light message from the King, disrupting his thoughts.

Here, beings communicate not through sound, but through light photons—like lightning—transcending space and time.

“Blessings to the King of Aetherium,” Aevran replied via photon light.
“Blessings returned, Aevran. I have something important for the well-being of not only Zorvalis but the entire Universe Aetherium,” said the King as he projected several scenes into Aevran’s unconscious mind, displaying emotions like anger, sadness, hatred, and fear.

“Negative emotions in Aetherium? Impossible, my King. Aetherium is filled only with happiness and harmony,” Aevran responded, his golden aura turning blue in shock.

Human auras here shift color based on emotion.

“Yes, Aevran. Negative emotions are spreading, and now Aetherians are beginning to suffer health issues,” the King added.

“Impossible! Aetherians are healthy and have never fallen ill!” Aevran exclaimed.

“Your duty is to find the source of this. You must solve this to save Aetherium.”

“Yes, my King. With God’s will, I will save Aetherium.”

He paused, diving into his unconscious mind—a skill perfected in Aetherium, where it functions like a supreme form of artificial intelligence. Aetherians had discovered that the unconscious mind and the universe are made of the same matter.

The negativity stemmed from young generations who no longer believed in kindness and were drawn to negative traits.

“Let’s meet at Zanthron Tower,” Aevran messaged his best friends, Zyntron and Ariala—his brilliant and radiant lover. Love still existed here.

He traveled via holographic lightning-speed vehicle at 0.01% of light speed (about 2,997.9 km/s). In Aetherium, time is non-linear—a spatial dimension. Events can loop or reverse, manipulated by mental power. Time travel and loops are common here.

Ariala and Zyntron greeted him.

A poem bloomed in Aevran’s mind, which Ariala read through their unconscious link:

“I am Majnun 2080 longing for you
Writing poems on the Lunar Orbit
I am Aevran 3080 missing you
Carving your name in Aetherium
Our love eternal and ever-repeating
Like the Time Loop theory”

“Aevran, that’s beautiful. The only eternal thing here is love,” she sent back through their minds.

“My heroes, I believe you know why we’re here,” Aevran said.
“Aevran, the root of this negativity is the Antrians,” Zyntron said.

“Antrians?” Aevran raised an eyebrow.

“They are humans from Earth like us, but they arrived via black holes on Gula Putih 3.0,” Ariala explained.

Black holes, unlike wormholes, absorb everything—even light—and are formed from collapsed supernovae.

“Long ago, greedy humans built their own ship and entered a black hole, facing immense suffering,” she added.

“So they lost faith in goodness, and now want to spread negativity in Aetherium, using innocent young minds,” said Zyntron.

“We must sow dreams and make Aetherium a purely positive universe. Our new mission: Save Aetherium,” Aevran declared, his aura turning silver.

“Shall we fight the Antrians or save the young?” Ariala asked.

“We can’t fight evil with evil,” Aevran said.
“We must prevent the Antrians’ existence by stopping humans from entering Aetherium via black hole.”

“You mean... time travel back a thousand years to our original universe?” they asked.

“Yes. Get ready for Mission A-0: Zero Antrians.”

Mission A-0 began. Aetherian Voyager, led by Captain Aevran Rayan, launched into a five-dimensional universe, back to the three-dimensional cosmos—a journey through time and space.

Intermission…

Traveling faster than light using tachyons, the ship entered a wormhole and adjusted to the rigid time structure of the cosmos, arriving in 2080.

25 January 2080
The ship orbited the Solar System. Aevran tried to signal Earth by aligning planets, hoping Earth’s scientists would notice—but nothing.

“Three-dimensional beings can’t understand messages from five-dimensional ones,” Ariala said.

“We’re feeling sadness and despair—negative emotions,” Aevran noted.
“We must control them. We will succeed,” Ariala replied with new hope.

“On 19 February 2080, humans prepared for new interstellar travel. Gula Melaka 3.0 was at the space station, ready to enter a wormhole on 28 February. But suddenly, Gula Putih 3.0 appeared, unplanned. Greedy humans boarded it and launched on 29 February,” Ariala explained.

“We only have 24 hours to stop it,” Aevran strategized.

“What can we do in just a day?” Zyntron asked.

“Think not like ordinary humans—we are Aetherians,” Aevran encouraged.

Ariala rewound time to 28 February 2080. Both massive ships were now at the space station.

“Why don’t I ask Majnun Qais, captain of Gula Melaka 3.0—and my ancestor—for help?” Aevran said.

“But he’s a 3D human, we’re 5D. He might think we’re aliens,” Ariala worried.

Still, Aevran entered the ship, hoping to change history.

Majnun Qais, in cryosleep, dreamt of space. Aevran, watching, admired his ancestor’s heart and soul.

He realized their only connection: love and the unconscious mind.

“I must plant the story of Aetherians and Antrians into his unconscious,” Aevran thought.

He scanned Majnun Qais’s life. Then, an idea struck.

Majnun Qais woke from cryosleep on 27 February 2080, haunted by a dream: Aevran 3080.

“I must change this mission,” he told himself.

He summoned his deputy, Layla—his beloved.

“Layla, you’ll take Gula Melaka 3.0 through the wormhole. I’ll take Gula Putih 3.0 to stop them.”

“You’re not coming with us?” she asked tearfully.

“I must stop the Antrians from ever existing.”

After a struggle, Majnun Qais took control of Gula Putih 3.0. Both ships launched on 28 February 2080—one for hope, one to prevent harm.

Thus, Antrians never existed. Only Aetherians thrived in the future. Aetherium was saved.

“Well done, Captain Aevran. Mission A-0 succeeded!” Ariala rejoiced.

“Ariala, the link between our dimensions is love and the unconscious mind. I implanted the Aevran 3080 story into Majnun Qais’s mind via his father, Qais Majnun—a fiction writer—in 2050. That story became Majnun’s favorite, stored deep in his unconscious. So, during cryosleep, he dreamt it—and changed the mission.”

“Dreams are truly unique. We don’t dream in our universe. Homo sapiens are lucky,” Ariala smiled.

“So... who’s the hero—Majnun Qais or Aevran Rayan?” Ariala asked.

“The hero is the universe itself. All by God’s grace,” Aevran replied, gazing into the majestic cosmos.
