A Thousand Points of Light

Among blueprints and schematics, we recovered a strange document: From the personal files of the Quantum Architect In the beginning, we dwelled in darkness. Our gods said, 'let there be dark,' and there was. When our first ancestors gained the spark of sentience, we searched the heavens for signs of life or meaning, but all above us was darkness. As we built our civilization, our minds scanned for shadows in the night. We toiled in the places where we built our first cities, always testing their foundations. Thousands of years later, I had the temerity to look *up*.While others labored with their gaze downcast, my mind opened up to the heavens. Building a temple of circuitry and steel, I formed my own tools, empowered by the light of my intellect. Perfecting a labyrinth of diodes and capacitors, I cast my consciousness through the cosmos, perceiving something beyond the dark skies that shrouded our world. For I could sense what others could not: We were not alone in the universe. As though through a glass darkly, I could detect thousands of other worlds. I could sense the impossible. Beyond the night burned a thousand points of light.
