Interventions: Justice in Time

By Jason Wynn

People have "just disappeared" throughout recorded history; there is even a Spanish word for them: desaparecidos. Sometimes the cause is a wilderness accident... but more likely "murder most foul" to quote Shakespeare's Hamlet, and eventually a perp may be caught and punished. However, there are cases where a person entered a room with no exit, and... just never reappeared. Or they went to bed one night and the bed was untouched the next morning. Could there be something else happening? Related to this question: is justice - basic fairness - important to you? Injustice seems to pervade all recorded history. Ramses the Great badly lost the Battle of Kadesh and survived only by sacrificing his personal Ra troops. Yet his monuments say that he won that battle. And fathered at least 48 sons. At all scales, sociopaths have pillaged, raped, and murdered innocents. Believers in a faith tradition generally accept that punishment will be meted out by God, Allah, perhaps reincarnation to a lesser state... because history sure looks like terrible people (that 4% of humankind who are sociopaths) have largely gotten away with impunity. Finally, there are well-known critical points in history, events or even moments that have had vast and lasting effects on the future. The premature death of Alexander Hamilton at the hand of Aaron Burr comes to mind here. Think of future historians living on Mars, an integral part of mankind's first great step out to another solar system. What if they could go back in time and ensure that certain things were "taken care of?" To ensure that their own ancestors survived the Argentine "Dirty War" or the war of Welsh independence, perhaps - or to ensure that another critical individual didn't just "disappear" before mankind launches out into the Galaxy... This book provides a plausible explanation for how time travel might actually work. It provides a plausible explanation for how faster-than-light travel might also actually work. The stories here fit in real historical contexts, where justice was meted out in this life... Justice from the future - justice in time.
