Unwanted knowledge
My name is Nul Vagnor and l am a scientist. I started to study biology at the age of 14; which was really unexpected among my family. My step-mother owned a motel. Ever since she was a child, she wanted to run a motel. Everyone thought that she was weird, but her parents always adored her maturity. On the other hand my father was a miner, he had worked at a coal mine for his entire life; continuing from his fathers�' footsteps. So knowing that, both of my parents thought that being a scientist was the last thing I would grow up to be. Trough out the years, I learned all about the life around me and what makes it happen. Knowing so much about life and how it is formed, I started to fantasize about making life of my own. This, lead me to the taboos of science; creation and cloning of humans. Those things fascinated me to no end, all I could ever imagine was what we could accomplish, if we set aside our �"good morals�". I imagined how far our medicine and medical knowledge would advance if we just abolish these ideas of us being monsters for being curious.
In the spring of 2021 while I was finishing my studies, an atom bomb was dropped on to Hiroshima by the United States. No one really knows why or how it happened, nobody ever revealed who was the man that pulled the trigger. The US government stated time and time again that they were not responsible for it. Everything anyone could say for sure was that the horrendous act was an accident; an accident that would make the history repeat itself. Because of that event, the World War Three began. I and many others that had a degree on the science of biology, were recruited as scientists for the army. At first I was scared about the things we might have to do to; knowing what kind of monstrous things army did in the past, but to my pleasant surprise, they had us research something that I was very familiar with. They wanted us to create an army of clones that were better than any human and smarter than any machine. For a year and a half, we shut ourselves into the laboratory that the army provided us with. We did multitude of things that the populace would deem �"terribly immoral�", like growing human clones, only to cut them open and re-assemble them; trying to make something that would at least stay alive. We never questioned ourselves because we knew that they were not human, they were just clones; easy to make and easily expandable. Thousands of dead experiments later we succeeded in creating something, something that would surely be what we were looking for. We called it �"The Blue Hearted�". We were unable to clone this being, because every time we tried; the blue hearts imploded while developing. But this fact didn't really mean anything, because when we sent it in to battle on its own; he won the war without any problem. The sheer amount of human obliteration that was caused by that single entity was disturbing. It was like if a man had the power to call upon an atomic rain from the tip of his fingers. After the battle had ended, the entity dissolved in to thin air; never to be seen again.       
Thinking after the fact, we never knew what �"the Blue Hearted�"; now dubbed �"Blue heart�", actually was. Many of us suspected it to get its powers from the unproven �"particles from heaven�", that were written about in ancient texts; saying that they are things that leaked from the higher existence. After we won the war, I got transferred in to another lab where the goal was to create a connection to a higher existence if there was something like that out there. For 14 years we tried to do anything we could imagine, our best bet was to try and break the physics of this world enough that something in the other existence could connect to ours. Until one day we managed to make a connection for a brief moment. On that brief moment the laboratory walls, ceilings and floors became engraved with the blueprints for a gate-way between our universe and something called �"The God Layer�".
