The crystals were ancient, buried deep in the earth, waiting for the ones who could unlock their secrets. After which it took decades of research and experimentation that lead to a critical breakthrough where they gave off an essence with temporal properties.
Eventually scientists worked to harness the essence which put them into spinning levitations, and allowed them to develop a new type of processing unit called TIPS (Temporal Intelligence Processing Shapes).
These TIPS, which people also referred to as Forever Shapes due to their seamless and fluid rotations, sparked a technological revolution, leading to advancements in fields such as energy, computing, artificial intelligence, gene editing and faster-than-light travel.
This new era, known as the "Forever", marked a significant turning point in human history, altering the course of humanity's destiny and purpose.
