Tripod

A reality where something like H.G. Wells War of the Worlds novel actually happened. The Martians are called the Vuul in this reality. 
A troubling aspect of this world is its discovery, only three years ago, was the result of Infinity mapping a series of mysterious parachronic “eruptions” from its point in the quantum. So the question is 'did the Vuul just invade that Earth or did they also invade the Earths of other realities?'
==Notes==
Wells' novel is vague on how extensive the invasion was but the epilogue give hints that only England was hit as no references to any other country having to fight the Martians is made. Also in the novel the Martians appear to set their sights on Venus.

===Descriptions From the Original Text===
*"A monstrous tripod, higher than many houses, striding over the young pine trees, and smashing them aside in its career; a walking engine of glittering metal, striding now across the heather; articulate ropes of steel dangling from it, and the clattering tumult of its passage mingling with the riot of the thunder"
*"Machine it was, with a ringing metallic pace, and long, flexible, glittering tentacles (one of which gripped a young pine tree) swinging and rattling about its strange body. [...] Behind the main body was a huge mass of white metal like a gigantic fisherman’s basket, and puffs of green smoke squirted out from the joints of the limbs as the monster swept by me."
*"The mechanism it certainly was that held my attention first. It was one of those complicated fabrics that have since been called handling-machines, and the study of which has already given such an enormous impetus to terrestrial invention. As it dawned upon me first, it presented a sort of metallic spider with five jointed, agile legs, and with an extraordinary number of jointed levers, bars, and reaching and clutching tentacles about its body. Most of its arms were retracted, but with three long tentacles it was fishing out a number of rods, plates, and bars which lined the covering and apparently strengthened the walls of the cylinder. These, as it extracted them, were lifted out and deposited upon a level surface of earth behind it."
