And the fourth volume of “Alternative History” ends with me deciphering the matrix and figuring out what the icosahedron is, and I begin to search for how to integrate it into my original matrix. I also realize that, apart from the icosahedron, I’m missing the dodecahedron. The dodecahedron also has five faces, so it could be assumed that the dodecahedron might relate to the underworld. But the Mystic-Old-Man tells me that the dodecahedron is something else entirely. The icosahedron is exactly what I’ve found, and it truly represents the Spirit of Justice, and the icosahedron, along with the Five- Pointed Star, the Pentacle, the Pentagram. But the dodecahedron, which is also known as the Fifth Element – he says, represents death. And that’s how my fourth volume of “Alternative History” ends. And the fate is such that, perhaps, in the past, all the lawlessness that people committed went unpunished, but now there is the Spirit of Justice, and He will come for everyone, for those who are lazy, for those who lie.
