Navigating the Unknown: A Journey Through Time Travel
Written on
Chapter 1: The Unspoken Realities of Time Travel
The researchers at the institute failed to prepare me for the sensations associated with time travel. They neglected to mention the disorienting vertigo or the prickling sensation that would accompany my journey. There was no warning that the distortions of space would stretch my perception in ways I couldn't imagine. Perhaps they were oblivious to it themselves; perhaps no one had ever enlightened them.
I often wondered if their lack of transparency stemmed from ignorance, especially since they never clearly answered how many individuals returned from previous temporal expeditions. Some sidestepped the question, others provided vague responses, and a few were adept at speaking without truly addressing the issue. Their half-truths and minor details left me questioning whether they were withholding the truth: that perhaps no one had come back, aiming to spare me from second thoughts. If that were the case, I wouldn’t hold it against them.
Alternatively, it was possible that some previous participants had returned but were too traumatized to share their experiences. Rumor had it that astronauts from earlier missions often felt disoriented after witnessing Earth from space, unable to reconcile the experience with their understanding of reality. Such disarray is likely expected when one dares to defy the natural order.
While I could have pressed for more information, I sensed a part of me that was reluctant to uncover the truth. Despite my insatiable curiosity, I believed some experiences were meant to be lived rather than explained. How time travel impacted one individual did not guarantee a similar outcome for another. Life is inherently unpredictable, and perhaps it is wise that it should remain so. Like the astronauts before me, if I was destined to feel fractured by this transgression, so be it.
