Thorne's Contraption
2026-06-06 · Someone
HELP WANTED-
Are you the kind of person that chases glory, confronts challenges,
and doesn't think too much about the consequences? That's what I'm
looking for. The stronger the better. I've finally finished my project
and need test subjects-
Don't say that, say heroes!
What? Oh, er, yeah, sure, let's go with that. I need _heroes_ willing to
breach a new (and very old) frontier- traveling centuries back in time.
The structure and order that allow society to exist, allow people to
cooperate instead of fighting amongst themselves like scavengers, that
didn't come about by accident. Key points in history shaped society to
be what it is today. I have identified three such points and need
exceptional individuals (or groups, that would actually be better)
brave enough, hardy enough, and careless enough to be willing to have
my device reduce you to subatomic particles and stream you across the
divide of spacetime. No scrubs, though, I didn't put in all this work
just to paint interesting stains on the past.
Retrieve these artifacts of Order for me, and your whole world will
change.
I'm working out of my garage, near Chicago in Chaos. Door's unlocked
and security has been recalibrated to no longer vaporize the
unauthorized.
-Dr. Cornelius Thorne
P.S. - This is an UNPAID internship, but anything you can loot you
can keep. Just bring me the artifacts.
