He presents this to me as a direct vision — I see it, I feel it. And after that, my fourth volume begins, though in essence, I simply continue my journey of unraveling everything. But this journey reaches a break in the third volume, where I was purely exploring all the multiverses, all the frequencies, all the social strata of society, all the worlds of people. And now, something different happens — something crucial to note — it’s as if the details become clearer, or rather, a new depth emerges. Now, instead of traveling through various zodiac signs, I must comprehend three fundamental groups. And so, I begin my search. This is how my fourth volume of “Alternative History” begins. Naturally, I started gathering all available materials on the internet regarding the three gods and the three worlds. And indeed, I find that in many traditions — most often in paganism — these concepts appear frequently. However, modern society has been conditioned to view paganism as something dark, negative, or overly ritualistic, something that opposes the currently established religions. That is simply the way things are now. And I will say this: I have often heard such sentiments because I am an Orthodox Christian myself, and I understand that God is supposed to be one.

However, Ancient Greece, with its pantheon of Olympic gods, and Ancient Egypt, with its multitude of deities, are both considered pagan civilizations. And were they running around in masks, performing rituals like bumba-yumba and eating people? No. Paganism came to be labeled as such during the decline of certain civilizations because civilizations go through cycles, and there was a time when gods ruled the Earth. This knowledge has been preserved in various cultures, though much of it has been lost. And then something happened in the world — there was a decline. The gods either disappeared, or people turned away from them, or the gods withdrew—it doesn’t matter. What followed was, frankly, a descent into darkness. This kind of darkness is well depicted in the movie “Noah” with Russell Crowe, where a tribe is shown consuming everything in sight, unable to
