There are many possible versions. And it feels like, even if we just theoretically imagine that there are seven multiverses and seven different ways this could all unfold — then the question becomes: where will I be? So, where is my consciousness? That’s the most important thing. In other words, if I make the wrong choice, I might end up in the multiverse where it all ends badly — where I’m exterminated and not recognized. Because that’s what exists in that multiverse. And if I’m connected to it, and my consciousness is in that multiverse, then that’s the only outcome I’ll experience and witness — I won’t even know the other versions. And in the end, it would be a collapse, the end of the world, and so on. And if my attention, my consciousness, is tuned into and chooses the multiverse in which I believe in the White Tsar and the Golden Age, and as a result my appearance leads to all conflicts subsiding and to my acceptance and recognition — then if I am aligned with that and believe in it, I will only witness that version, and I won’t even know that there are other versions of me, other multiverses where things unfolded entirely differently. In those others, it’s as if an autopilot version of me exists, but what matters is where I myself actually am. This is a theory, a hypothesis — I don’t know the right word for it. And I delve into this more deeply when I reflect on it in the third volume of “Alternative History.” But again, the protagonist of the book is a writer. And he’s writing a book about this as a science fiction novel using mythological parallels. According to all legal standards, there can be no claims, because the protagonist does not interact with people or call for any action — he is simply, like any writer, a recluse who writes a book. There are quite a lot of writers who have written detective stories about murders, about maniacs, describing in detail the blood and how it splashes, and how someone eats someone else. Today, there are a huge number of such writers in the world. And they cannot be judged by people for writing this — it doesn’t mean they are like that themselves, right? So here, it’s the same with the protagonist of the book, Alexandr Korol. Even compared to those detective stories and other authors, he doesn’t write anything frightening at all. This is a book within a book, a hero within a hero. The book is like the film “The Matrix” or like “Harry Potter” — just another story. There’s nothing terrifying or prohibited in it. Yes, deep topics are touched upon, there are moments that intersect with religion, which might scare people a little. But actually, in the third, fourth, fifth, and all the other
