The One Being Matthew Bennett

In the year 2337, the planet has been ravaged by countless wars, and the population wishes to put an end to the repetitive losses. With the world divided physically into two parts, loved ones are ripped from one another. An invention that permits communication with the past is developed by the mournful protagonist, Adam. As he reveals his newfound miracle to an over-indulgent government, the people must make a choice. His idea entails, to begin with, preventing the wars from ever occurring again. His creative mind devises the idea of religion for the first time in this alternate dimension, which he envisions using to control people from years prior. With resources diminishing from endless savagery, time is limited. The governing structure claims that there is only enough energy left to attempt one of these solutions. The not-so-innocent population is left with two choices: reunite and make peace with the other side of their planet, or use the newly discovered technology to manipulate the past. Which would you choose?
