Constellation: the Echo

 

The Echo views everything in the Dream as ripples of something greater. He is determined to find the way to the truth - the heart of worlds, ignoring echoes those worlds are made of. His path is full of misery as he lives only with thoughts of his aim, but in the end he realises that the universal truth he yearned for doesn't exist. Only brought together all those insignificant echoes shape the universe, and what really shaped him wasn't hidden in the end, but scattered throughout his path.

Era of Evolution story

 

Dr Eim was the first evolver found by Atlas. Together they founded the space investigation department (the SID), whose objective was to evacuate people from planets affected by the destroyer and search for other evolvers.

 

When it became clear that the destroyer showed unusual signals similar to star radiation, Dr Eim came up with a daring idea that this particular destroyer might work as a gate of a specific tunnel, leading to another part of the universe, where it ends with a star - the Promised Land. He became obsessed with the idea to travel inside the destroyer, though it was very risky. As he noticed that evolvers are unaffected by the destroyer in any way, he decided to use them in his experiment, which led to Atlas ban his research.

 

Dr Eim always wears his best smile and maintains friendly façade, hiding resentment toward Atlas and indifference to other evolvers. While Atlas is focused on protecting the solar system, Dr Eim pursuits a noble goal of saving humanity, but he doesn't care of its individuals, as they might be sacrificed for the greater good, as well as himself.

 

Little does he expect that one day there will be someone to stride this path alongside him and share his passion, but renounce it all readily just to save his life. This might be a moment when Eim acknowledges the value of human life and his need to be saved and loved.

Native planet

 

Eim's power was given to him by Icarus-4L (Liquid), one of two planets-twins. They consisted of water and thus became a dangerous trap for newborn humans, who couldn't breathe underwater. As Eim was born on this planet, he is able to manipulate time, speeding it up or slowing it down, same as the race that inhabited Icarus-4L before the appearance of the destroyer.
