The investigation into transition timeline led Matthias to analyze network activity patterns over the past five decades. What he discovered made the established pattern of four temporal anomalies seem incomplete.
There weren't four facilitated displacements. There were twenty-three.
Most had occurred decades ago. Most had been individuals whose contributions had seemed minor at time but had accumulated into significant timeline modifications. And most had died or disappeared with their temporal anomaly status unknown because Matthias's current analysis capability exceeded anything he'd had access to forty years ago when many interventions occurred.
But the pattern was clear when examined comprehensively. Twenty-three facilitated displacements over fifty-three year period. Each one timed to create specific changes. Each one contributing pieces to configuration that culminated in current timeline where partnership existed and consciousness research was normalized.
