Ancient World: Ancient Nukes

Creating History In the aftermath of the ancient nuclear catastrophe, the modern-day archaeologist reflects on the possible role they have played in entangling the past and present. The physicist introduces the concept that their inquiry, observation, and curiosity may have caused the entanglement of these ancient civilizations and their timelines, making the archaeologist wonder if their quest for answers helped set off the atomic chain of events in the ancient world.

The Cost of Ambition Lucifer, the fallen angel, reveals his role as the prime deceiver. He planted the seed of curiosity in Adam and watched as mankind’s hunger for knowledge and power led them to the brink of annihilation. Lucifer now manipulates events to ensure the destruction that will follow Mesopotamia and Egypt’s first strike, savoring the chaos and hoping to compel God’s attention once more. This chapter details Egypt and Mesopotamia’s secret preparations, their construction of subterranean catapults and other primitive methods of delivering atomic weapons, and their drive to dominate. Further, it describes how Israel, the Greek Speaking World and Ancient India are compelled to enter the nuclear fray because of alliance treaties and other reasons.

First StrikeDespite the summit, Mesopotamia and Egypt contemplate a preemptive nuclear strike against other ancient powers. But in their mutual mistrust, plot against each other. The scholars, now fully entangled in these ancient events, begin to fear the full-scale destruction to come. The peace which exists after the Nuclear Summit amongst Israel, India, Ancient Greece, Egypt and Mesopotamia is superficial, fragile and tension-filled.

Do As I Say, Not As I Do Shiva, the destroyer of worlds, issues a cosmic warning to all the civilizations entangled in the atomic arms race. His demonstration of destructive power serves as a dire omen for what could come if mankind continues down this path. The Summit of the entangled, ancient civilizations results in a call for restraint, but will the human leaders heed their warning?

Weapons of (Brah)-Mass Destruction In ancient India, scholars contemplate the Brahmastra, a divine weapon described in their Vedic texts. Unlike other civilizations, India is guided by the warnings of its gods, particularly Shiva, and chooses not to pursue this power, understanding the risks. The scholars observe India’s restraint, but the stage is set for a larger global confrontation.
