For the most part, the residents of the Hypnopediaverse trinary system don’t
think too hard about how that system works. They travel to another world in
their dreams, and then deeper into yet another world, where time moves faster.
There, they can commune with each other, and learn new skills, which can be
brought into the real world later. Exactly how it works, and why it works, and
why it doesn’t work unless they slip into that third world, is not relevant to
most of them. They accept it and move on. Some are not so satisfied with this
nonexplanation. They want to understand the physics of it, and find new ways
of utilizing the power, if that is even possible. A few like-minded
individuals came together, and formed an organization dedicated to this
research. They did not have malevolent intentions, but they recognized the
possibility that the dreamworlds could be weaponized in some way, or otherwise
abused. Knowing about these risks only fueled their motivations. People
criticized them for potentially letting those possibilities fall into the
wrong hands, and perhaps it was best to just leave it alone, but really, there
is no telling. It could just as easily happen on its own, and the world would
end up defenseless. I won’t bore you with the details of what they learned
during their research. Their primary objectives were to figure out if they
could travel to the other worlds physically, and not just in their dreams, and
whether they could transport resources between them. They never did figure
that out, because bulk travel is so rare, but they learned a lot about the
fundamentals of this branch of physics. As far as the general public goes, it
didn’t really do them any good. They didn’t need any more resources, and most
weren’t interested in understanding it, but it was probably best that someone
explored these options.

- About Me
My name is Nick Fisherman III. It's not my real name, but that's not because I'm trying to hide from my former agency, or something. I named myself after someone I've known for most of my life, and he chose it in honor of his late best friend. I took up writing when I found myself failing 8th grade science, and realized I might never reach my dream of becoming a biochemist, a meteorologist, and a quantum physicist. I started developing my canon after a scouting trip to an island inspired what I thought would be my first novel. I founded this website upon the advice of many people, who told me I needed to get my work out there, and not wait for an agent to accept my manuscript. You can expect one new story every day. Weekdays are for microstories, which are one or two paragraphs long. They're usually only thematically linked, so you won't have to read one to understand another, but they do sometimes tell a combined story. Sundays are for my continuous longer story, The Advancement of Mateo Matic, which I started in the beginning, and won't end until 2066. Saturdays are for long series, most of which take place in the same universe as Mateo, and add to the larger mythology.
