As we continue with Part Two of our discussion with Richard Hatem
of Ken Webster's book, The Vertical Plane, we find that "The
Mystery of the Dodleston Messages" has become even more
fantastical and bizarre. As unimaginable as it would be to
ostensibly communicate with a living person from hundreds of
years ago, Ken and his friends now find themselves on something
of a "Party Line" via their computer with beings or perhaps some
form of intelligence from a distant future or existence.
Identifying itself as "2109," this individual or agency soon
warns that Ken's meddling with the construct of space-time by
continuing to communicate with Lukas, now known as "Tomas," could
irreparably damage the fabric of our reality. However, this
2109 and company don't appear to be very professional in
conducting their lording over timelines. Often petulant and
annoyingly cryptic, 2109 teases to provide advanced knowledge yet
lacks the wisdom or adroitness in controlling its
faculties. It also appears another agent of 2109 was
working to confound their authority by providing Tomas the means
to communicate into the future in the first place. Who are
the ghosts, the living, and the beings residing in the margins
between the two? If 2109 is telling the truth and a form of
time travel is possible, this raises many interesting, often
asked questions and even more concerns. For instance, are
there numerous, perhaps an infinite number of parallel timelines
where versions of yourself exist, and what would happen if you
were to interact with one negatively? As unlikely as this
may seem, even more disturbing is the thought that there may be
semi-omniscient entities who might be fumbling with the levers of
control over them. Whether you believe The Vertical Plane
to be factual or merely an entertaining new genre of "Science
Non-fiction," the age-old adage holds fast – it's usually good
practice not to talk to strangers.
