Mirov

"Mirov" — The Tale Beyond Worlds:

Imagine waking up one day only to realize that the world around you is not the same as the one you fell asleep in.
What would you feel? Confusion, fear—or perhaps a haunting familiarity?

On a quiet afternoon in the year 2032, a man named Edgar Valence awoke on a park bench along a street in Manhattan, New York, and found himself trapped in that very enigma.

He had no memory of who he truly was, except for a faint awareness that this was not the life he belonged to.
According to his ID, he was an American citizen living in New York, yet his mind whispered of another existence—
a village in Mughal India, during the reign of Jahangir, son of Emperor Akbar.

The world before him was alien—its people, clothes, machines, and towers unfamiliar.
And yet, some strange instinct made him feel he had always known how to exist here.
He had never held a sword, but his body moved like a master of martial arts.
A woman called herself his wife, though he had never seen her before.
His land, his people, his identity, even his gender—all had changed overnight.

Soon, fragments of this new life returned to him: pieces of a criminal past, whispers of a syndicate whose leader he had allegedly killed, and a ten-billion-dollar fortune he had stolen.
But Edgar—or whoever he truly was—was certain he had never met any of them.

And then, from deep within his buried memories, surfaced a question older than time—
a secret treasure, composed of jewels and relics looted from across the world, hidden somewhere in a forgotten era.
That treasure had once been hunted by Dutch, French, British, and Chinese spies—
and its guardian, a mysterious man named Sarang, had claimed to be two hundred years old.

History, however, made no mention of such a treasure.
Only a few scattered documents in France and Britain spoke of it—
and even they dismissed it as a myth.
But if it was never found, then it must still be where it was left…
and Edgar remembered the exact place.

His awakening after four centuries set governments in motion.
Nations laid claim to him, and a dangerous race began—
to find what the world had forgotten,
buried now under the dominion of those who themselves had plundered the earth.

And then came questions that defied reason:
How could a highly advanced underground bunker exist four hundred years ago,
in a time untouched by modern science?
Who built it, and who kept it hidden?
Sarang called himself the warden of that illusion,
but who was the true master of the place he feared?

What followed was a journey beyond comprehension—
from the world we know to one that exists beyond our perception.

We look up every night at a sky full of shining stars,
thinking of how vast the universe is and how small we are.
Yet all the stars, planets, and cosmic matter that we can see make up only five percent of the universe.
The rest remains unseen—Dark Matter and Dark Energy—
mysterious entities we cannot touch or detect, only sense.

But what if one day we discover that the real universe is that unseen realm,
and the world we live in—this tangible, visible existence—
is merely an anomaly, a flicker within the greater reality?

What if some among us could begin to feel, see, and even touch that hidden domain?

"MIROV"

is a three-chapter saga that begins in the near future and spirals back four centuries,
unraveling secrets buried deep beneath time and civilization.

The first chapter takes you ten years ahead, into a technologically evolved world,
and then plunges four hundred years into the past—
to where the keys to another universe were hidden.

The second chapter follows the perilous expedition of divided teams
journeying through an ancient wilderness to a forgotten base—
where they encounter a familiar figure,
and for most of them, the journey becomes their final one.

The third chapter manifests the vision of a dark universe,
a realm so surreal and otherworldly that even the wildest imaginations of those time travelers
could not have conceived it—
a place where everything they believed about existence shatters forever.

Chapter 3

 

The Shadow Universe — The Deception of Perception

They had crossed into another universe —
but this world was unlike anything they had ever seen, known, or imagined.
It was a realm inverted from reality, a reflection of everything they understood —
and yet, entirely beyond comprehension.

Their minds, unprepared for what they encountered,
began to reshape what they saw into familiar patterns,
forcing the unknown into the mould of the known.
But in truth, what appeared before them was not what it seemed.
And because of that, they were deceived — again and again.

The fact was unsettling:
what their minds showed them was as real as it was imaginary.
Each perception — each sound, each sight —
was half truth, half illusion.

There was no space in that universe as humans understood it,
and yet infinite distances remained.
But unlike their home universe,
these distances did not demand vehicles, fuel, or propulsion —
for here, distances were conquered in the blink of an eye.

This cosmos was divided into countless pockets,
each dominated by a different species.
Among them, three great powers ruled most of the known expanse —
the Puskians, the Gravors, and the Skandis —
ancient enemies locked in endless rivalry.

In a smaller pocket, however, existed another race —
the Adriusynors,
the most scientifically advanced beings of them all.
They possessed knowledge far beyond the comprehension of others.
They had grown discontent with the flaws of their universe,
and sought to redesign its very fabric.

After centuries of effort,
they built a Cosmic Engine —
a mechanism capable of reshaping the universe itself.
But during its testing,
they discovered a catastrophic flaw:
it could cause the collapse of the Shadow Universe.
It was this very experiment, they later realized,
that had created the vast emptiness known as the Boötes Void —
a hollow stretching three hundred million light-years across.

Determined to correct their mistake,
the Adriusynors began working tirelessly.
But news of the Cosmic Engine spread —
to the Puskians, the Gravors, and the Skandis.
They opposed the idea of redesigning creation,
and if it were to be done,
they wanted it shaped in their own image.

For the first time in their long history,
the three rival races united against a common threat.
They waged a war unlike any other —
a war that would be remembered
as the most devastating conflict in their universe’s history.

Despite their unmatched intellect and technology,
the Adriusynors were outnumbered, outflanked, and ultimately destroyed.

But before their annihilation,
they dismantled the Cosmic Engine into four fragments,
each rendered powerless on its own.
They hid these fragments in the most perilous corners of their universe,
hoping that someday,
they would rise again,
reunite the pieces,
and complete the work they had begun.

After the fall of the Adriusynors,
the three victorious species began searching for the fragments.
Each managed to seize one —
but with the fourth missing,
the Engine could never function.
And since none of them would ever unite for a shared cause,
the universe remained unreconstructed.

Centuries passed in uneasy silence.
Then began a new struggle —
not for survival, but for control.
The Skandis and Gravors sought to reshape the universe
in their own design,
while the Puskians pursued a different goal:
to prevent any redesign at all.

For they knew that tampering with the Cosmic Engine
could collapse not only their realm,
but also the human universe connected through fragile cosmic threads.

The Puskians, therefore, sought help from humans —
beings unpredictable, unbound,
and unconnected to the structures of their reality —
believing that only such anomalies
could recover the lost fragments.

But in a universe where the eyes deceived,
the ears misled, and the mind invented its own truth,
how real was anything they perceived?
What guarantee was there that their understanding
wasn’t itself part of the illusion?

In the end, it was.
Everything they saw, everything they believed —
was both truth and deception at once.
