The Artifact Deal: The Jade Casket and the Choice of Fate
The final part of this book shows that even the strongest desires have their price. Tena’s story is a story about how easy it is to cross the line and how hard it is to return. This chapter is based on real records that the author received from the archive. It was this part of the book that became the impetus for creating a dream-work project where everyone can recognize themselves.
Section 2. Chapter 3
After the events that shook Alexei to the depths of his soul, his life ceased to be the same. He knew that something had changed, but for now he could not understand what exactly. The previous night had brought no peace — endless thoughts about the strange conversation in the bar and the mysterious stranger kept him from sleeping.
“Who is he? Why does he know so much? And what is this artifact he spoke of?” — these questions pounded in Alexei’s head as he tried to find at least some answers.
He looked at the business card he was holding in his hands. The address written on it seemed ordinary, but Alexei felt that something more was hidden behind it. He could not explain why he had decided to go to this address, but inside him lived a certainty that this step would change everything.
When he arrived at the address indicated, he was met by a tall, thin man who silently handed him a jade casket in the shape of an elephant.
“This is for you,” he said. “Everything is inside. Anres will contact you soon.”
The door slammed shut, and Alexei was left alone with the casket in his hands. He looked at it and could not believe that this was actually happening. Inside there was something warm, as if the casket were breathing. He did not dare open it, but he felt that it had already changed his life.
He went outside and got into the car. Night was falling over the city, and he kept looking at the box. At the intersection where he stopped, something happened. He didn’t understand what exactly, but the moment when everything changed was like a flash. Sparks, sound, and — silence.
Alexey didn’t know what awaited him ahead. But he had already taken a step that he could not undo.

About the book and the project
At the heart of this book lies a unique archive of hypnosis sessions created by a self-taught hypnotist in the seventies. His records, which lay dormant for more than twenty-five years, ended up in the hands of a certified therapist who uses progressive hypnosis in his practice. The archive covered more than eight years of observations, while in our country such regressive methods began to be used only recently.
The archive was given to the therapist by a girl who found it in an inherited apartment. Along with the records came an instruction to continue the work begun by the author of the archive. Over four years, more than seventy sessions were conducted, during which people were immersed in their past lives and the states between lives.
The results of these sessions proved valuable for understanding the laws that govern people’s destinies. With the permission of the heir, all materials were handed over to the author. It became clear that every step of a person is already recorded, every decision is not an accident but a choice, and everything that happens is merely one of the possible variants of reality.
The author reworked the archival records into a work of fiction, adding fictional characters and events, but preserving the key meanings embedded in the archive.
“Crossroads of Worlds” became the first book that launched the project. Today it is an analytical platform for working with dreams, using data from thousands of participants, their dreams that came true, and identified patterns between symbols and real events.
