[ WP ] A journal is found containing the observations of someone who has travelled through parallel universes . One particular entry describes a world where Genghis Khan never died and continues to rule to this day .

 This marks day five of our investigation into this curious offshoot of our main parallel universe study. In observing this instance, I find it amusing how it was spawned from a universe of sentient planets. Quantum mechanics work in strange ways, I suppose. 
 
 This universe is much like our own, however rather than the well-established Galactic Commonwealth, there is only a single ruler: one Genghis Khan ( See ref 134-C, “ Early Earth ’ s History ” ). Surprisingly, his rule is one of peace. There is no opposition, no countering voices, only him. From what I ’ ve observed, citizens across multiple star-systems are…well, happy. Work appears to be coordinated from a central source, and as a result there is no famine, no lack of resources, no competition, no corporations, no greed. Everything simply works, which baffles me. 
 
 I investigated further into who exactly this Genghis Khan is; my suspicion was that he was no longer alive in this dimension, and I was correct. In fact, he seems to exist now as some sort of highly advanced AI construct whose processing is distributed across all available computing resources in the universe. His programming defies even our most invasive analysis tools; he seems to block and ignore all attempts at deciphering his code. What we have been able to determine, however, is this: his power is nearly infinite, to the point that he can alter the physical properties of matter in three dimensions ( the fourth appears outside his grasp ). It is my opinion as a scientist that he is, as a result, as close to the definition of a God as we have seen in our study thus far. I believe we should attempt to copy his source for study in our universe.

 We have tried all standard analyses in our attempts to find a way to clone G. Khan ’ s source code. All have failed. His intelligence goes far beyond anything we have in our universe — it ’ s as if he has somehow not only harnessed all artificial computing power in his universe, but all biological power as well, the minds of all the denizens in his branch. 
 
 It is risky, but I am going to attempt one final test. I will reveal myself and attempt a transdermal brain link with him. Based on the peace I have observed throughout this universe, I imagine he may be more open to discussion with me than my coworkers suspect. If we can establish mutual trust, perhaps he will be willing to share pieces of his knowledge in time. I will also link my brain into our systems, so that our conversation can be automatically added to this record. 
 
 Link commences now.

 Unknown: “ No greetings. You are not from here. What do you want? ” 
 
 E. Siddal: “ Only to understand. We are explorers, your…holiness. ” 
 
 Unknown: “ Explorers. Do you wish to take what I have? ” 
 
 E. Siddal: “ No, not at all. We simply wish to understand how you came to obtain it. ” 
 
 Unknown: “ Pity. I wish to take what you have. ”
