An ordinary night between friends becomes something far more dangerous when one of them reveals an impossible truth: he possesses a device that allows travel to adjacent universes. The device was not invented or stolen—it was given to him by another version of himself. According to that explanation, reality is fragmented across multiple neighboring multiverses, each holding a fraction of the matter missing from their own. Together, they form a complete but divided whole, governed by different rules, constants, and outcomes. The claim sounds convenient, even absurd, until evidence begins ...
