In an alternate Universe in the year 56200 AD, a human boy named J. Christopher Trigonum was born. For some reason, his full first name has since been lost/obscured to all but Trigonum himself, and so only he will ever know what it means (If his first name even begins with a "J" for that matter).
So incredibly advanced was the native universe of Trigonum, that time travel was already invented in the year 456 BC. Needless to say, Trigonum already had access to the benefits of a highly evolved universe upon birth. But this Earth was not a perfect utopia by any stretch. In fact, some might even say that it was this rapid advancement that led to a decline in the quality of life for many of the inhabitants of earth; or, at least, one of the Earths.
Unknown-3
Long before the birth of Trigonum, humans had used their High Technology to wage war amongst themselves. The climax of this war, World War Six, was so catastrophic that the planet itself was split apart. This cataclysm is known as The Schism, in which shortly afterwards Earth became established as two separate planets – Terra and Gaea. The two planets had different ideals and laws, and were politically at odds with each-other a lot of the time.
The Terrans were the humans whose advancement had never stopped or even slowed following The Schism. Their science and technology was far superior to those of the Gaeans, but it had come at the cost of a clean spacious planet. The vast amount of industrialization which was born as a side-effect from the mass-production of technology caused much pollution, especially in its lower societal echelons that most of the impoverished humans were restricted to. They had an imbalanced economy, relying almost solely on industrial services to keep themselves afloat. Its air, water and soil was heavily polluted to the extent that it even corrupted its inhabitants' genes, making them sickly, weak and terminally ill.
Gaea, meanwhile, was a cleaner planet, free of toxins and pollution, and still with remaining patches of pure, untouched virgin nature. However, the Gaeans were far more "primitive" than the Terrans, due to their slower progression of science and their vastly outdated technology. However, one thing that they had which Terra did not was Time Travel. The Gaeans are the only ones who were able to save their time travel research and technology in The Schism, and they were able to further advance it afterwards.
As can be seen, Trigonum's life did not begin in the best circumstances, especially considering that he was born on Terra and grew up in one of its most urbanized and overcrowded slums. Trigonum remembered nothing of his birth parents, and neither did those who had found him. His childhood primarily was spent in an orphanage that he was supposedly left on the doorstep of after being born, where he labored away every day until being legally old enough to work a job, consisting of even harder and more rigorous labor. Although any "normal" boy (in Terran standards) would have been fatigued beyond all functioning, Trigonum was actually incredibly robust and energetic. This earned him the nickname among his peers as "hyper-man".
The Journey Begins
At this point, Trigonum’s outlook on his life and future was not too optimistic, and it was not helped by the physically deteriorating environment around him. However, despite this, he seemed to possess an advantage amongst the rest of the Terrans: in addition to his excess energy, he was also in the best health out of all of them. This could have easily been chalked up to simple good hygienic habits, and at first that was what Trigonum had done. However, a fatal flaw in this theory was that Trigonum had no financial or economic advantages over many of his other co-workers, and in fact was considered even poorer than most of them, and therefore his hygienic opportunities were only as great as theirs. Additionally, he soon found that he showed no physical signs of the genetic corruption that was present in so many others around him.
Many saw this as a "miracle" of sorts, but Trigonum believed it to be a mere fluke, and he felt put off by so many people seeming to perceive him as a “greater” being. There also were those who possessed an even more dangerous mindset, and attempted to ambush and kill Trigonum out of jealousy and fear. These experiences led Trigonum to realize that he would die if he continued living in the environment and conditions he did, and so he vowed to get out of the slums and move up in the world. And that he did.
Trigonum labored day and night, crushing his soul beneath the work. The fatigue and exhaustion he suffered from this was primarily more mental than physical. Eventually, Trigonum's hard work would pay off when he found a position in a corporation, one of the most powerful and successful in all of Terra, and also one of the very few institutions to not be industrial. While an office job might sound dull, this one was not, or at least that's what Trigonum convinced himself to believe in an effort to motivate himself. Trigonum worked hard day and night to his physical limit, trying his hardest to rise above his unfavorable position.
Trigonum had eventually accrued enough financial credits in his job, and he was able to transfer to a company established on Gaea. It was one place in particular that Trigonum had always dreamed of working at: Chrono Corp, the official Time Travel agency. The clean, unpolluted and safe environment was far more comfortable for Trigonum, and a welcome change.
Although he thought that the inhabitants of Terra viewed him as a supernatural being because of the extreme ratio resulting from their genetic corruption, Trigonum then found that even the Gaeans, who were "normal" also saw him as a greater being. He even began learning of cults that were starting to form. Trigonum was becoming disturbed, wondering why so many people were adamant about his “divinity", and why he of all people deserved such a status. He may have been a successful businessman, but he nonetheless saw himself as just that, and he came from one of the most godless places in the entire universe for that matter. He began to lay low, trying to stay above the suspicion of others. Eventually, after these burning questions lingered within Trigonum’s mind long enough, he finally tried to settle his concerns once and for all, and decided to test his DNA. He purchased the most expensive and advanced DNA testing tool that his credits could afford, to ensure the most possible accuracy and detail. What Trigonum found in his test results shocked him. The readings were so far off the charts, the data couldn't even be displayed in the results. Believing that the specific kit he bought had malfunctioned, Trigonum bought another and performed the same test again. The results were the same. He bought a third kit, and again the results still were the same. Trigonum could not ignore it any longer – his origins were greater than that of a normal human.
