Project Utopia Logbook

**09/05 - 2131** *After years of tireless planning, exhaustive research, and resource gathering - I am finally doing it. This will not be easy. At times I know I will falter - to be frank, my hands shake as I write this. But I must harden my resolve. This is not about me, this is about every single person in creation. This may seem cruel, my methods may seem sadistic, I may find myself hating the man I see in the mirror... But in the end, everyone will thank me. Everyone will be happy in the end. This reality will be wiped away and everything will start anew. We'll have a clean slate.* *We all will.*

**09/14 - 1219** *The recruiting phase has ended. We have all the manpower we will need to make this work. This is the part of the plan that is the hardest to go through with... but it'll all be worth it. I just have to look at the picture on my desk and my resolve comes flowing back. I'll see you again soon.* *I have a theory on the power of Gods. Why does reality require both Gods and Aspects to exist? In many cases they perform very similar functions in the cosmology of reality. Even more so, Gods are so much more vulnerable to destruction than Aspects. I believe that if Aspects are the beings who bring their aspects into existence, Gods are that aspect given life and form. Gods are the catalysts for change in the multiverse, they finely tune reality like a swiss time piece so mortal are able to experience it. Think of Aspects as a broad brush while the Divine are more of a detail brush. Aspects fill reality with their aspect indiscriminately, not caring where it goes as long as its put onto the page. Gods take the aspect and work out the fine details. If one took the divine energy from hundreds of Gods they would have an infinite well of power to shape reality as they saw fit. If we do this right, we may not even need to rewrite the books in The Archive. We'll write the goddamned books ourselves.*

**10/02 - 1400** *It seems that my cosmological opposite has finally decided to rear their head to oppose me. I expected this at some point, there was no way Transmundanity would simply allow me to continue with this course of action unabated. I will need to research this "BB" more. Know thy enemy.*

**10/14 - 1723** *My field agents have just returned to me with more information about BB and... to be frank I am stunned at what they have told me. In a way it makes sense. If reality is truly based around narrative constructs as so many in The Archive claim, I suppose this is fitting.* *A sibling separated by the walls of space and time. Another world where Mary and Eugene Brennan had a girl and no boy. She is fortunately not simply another version of me with a different gender, literally fighting against myself would be far too silly - if this were the case I may have to dissolve Project Utopia entirely as a result. She is... my sister. Belle Brennan. I wonder what sort of life you lived Belle. What experiences did you have that has caused us to diverge so.* *Perhaps in the new reality, we'll grow up together so I never have to ask.*

**11/23 - 0910** *This battle I have been fighting has been... frustrating. For some strange reason, BB has sent a group of brand new Archive agents after me to stop my plans to harvest divine energy. Why? Why did she not pick a more powerful team? A more clever one? What is so special about this team? And how are they winning?* *Another abnormality to look into another time, I suppose. I must admit there was something... different about them when I spoke to them months ago. As if their presence had more... weight. This speculation based on feelings and emotions is heavily unscientific and I do apologize to whoever is unfortunate enough to read this in the future.*

**12/15 - 1811** *The divinity shard is complete. I have learned that whoever wields its power must stay outside of reality itself to maintain it. A horrific sacrifice - to make the reality you wish you will never be able to be part of it. I could not wish this hell on anyone else. I will do it. I sincerely hope everyone is happy when the shift has completed. It is my sincerest wish that this new reality becomes one of prosperity and joy, even if I can not partake.*

**12/18 - 0511** *Sleep eluded me last night. I feel as if I were a child again before an important exam. Am I ready? Will things go as I planned? I am beginning to worry about a direct confrontation between Belle and I as well. I fear such an encounter may become an eternal, locked in an endless stalemate. Two perfect opposites, neither one ever flinching. I know I spoke of hell in my last entry, but I cannot imagine a hell worse than this. If Project Utopia fails and this becomes my fate, hopefully Belle and I can finally speak eye to eye. A family reunion as it were. Perhaps we can agree to end our fight forever. Or perhaps she will believe she can never let my evil infect the face of reality ever again.* *I have so many preparations to make. If I am successful, this log will no longer exist. If I fail, this will be my last entry. If I have failed and you are currently reading this logbook, I will assume you are one of those who worked to stopped me. I am sorry we were so at odds, everything I did truly pained me. I was fighting for everyone in reality, even you. And if reality continues in its current painful way, if I am slain or locked eternally in combat, I genuinely wish you the best of luck. I truly hope your life is all you wish it to be, and that you can create a utopia where I failed. If not in a new world, then in the one you are in.*
