It was a few hours into the evening of the third day after Hugo's adventure in the Dark Forest.
The only sound that could be heard from his room was the rustle of flipping pages as he skimmed through one of the new books discussing the space-time concepts and laws on Gaia. The book's author detailed some thought-provoking hypotheses that dissected the intricacies of how particle physics, energy transformations, and wave theory worked on Gaia.
The book had made Hugo realize some of the veiled differences that existed between Gaia and planet Earth. He was utterly enthralled.
Gaining an understanding of some of the underlying physical principles that explained the mystical goings-on in Gaia would significantly ease his advancement.
He needed to calculate the 'gravitational constant' on Gaia to determine whether he was still in the same Universe that contained Earth.
