「历史并非真实,客观尽可抹消;我们要让过去不存在于过去,它只存在于现在,在你我脑内,任人打扮。」
——虚构史学家卢德多坎,《空白五千年》
有证据表明「虚构史学家」是一群得到星神神启的令使;他们常常孤身投入星海,前往一个又一个星球,致力于编造、混淆、破坏、抹消当地的历史。虚构史学家相信前事决定后世:当一片宇宙、一颗星球、一处文明、一个国家拥有确定无疑的历史,它的未来发展就已注定,一切可能性都从未来消失,仅余可悲而寂寥的死板进程。为了保护世界免于客观凋零的不幸命运,虚构史学家以「神秘」为唯一旨意,决心将宇宙笼罩在一片迷雾之中。
虚构史学家秉持着旁人难以理解的崇高利他目的,孤独而决绝地执行着破坏历史的使命。他们的理论甚少被大众理解,而他们对客观事实的露骨憎恨则多少有些极端。许多世界开始意识到这群「神秘」令使对非物质文化造成的不可逆破坏。在银河中,虚构史学家的名声堪比反物质军团。博识学会曾公开谴责称:反物质军团毁灭了物质,而虚构史学家在毁灭宇宙本身。
History Fictionologists — Enigmata
"History really is not mired in truth, reality can be distorted; we shouldn't let the past stay in the past, but instead in the present, where everyone can embellish it."
— The Five Millennia Void by History Fictionologist Luddokan
There is evidence that History Fictionologists are a group of Emanators that were enlightened by Aeons. They often plunge into the sea of stars alone, traveling planet to planet with the sole purpose of fabricating, obscuring, and destroying the local history. History Fictionologists believe that the past determines the future — when a civilization's history is definite, its future development is doomed as all possibility is eliminated, leaving only a sad and rigid path forward. In order to save these worlds from the sad fate of objectivity, History Fictionologists, under the directive of Enigmata, are determined to shroud the universe in mystery.
History Fictionologists carry out their mission of destroying history alone and decisively, with an altruism that is difficult to comprehend. Their views are poorly understood by most, and their blatant hatred of objective facts is somewhat extreme. Many worlds are beginning to realize the irreversible, intangible damage that these Emanators of Enigmata have caused to culture. Across the cosmos, History Fictionologists have a reputation comparable to that of the Antimatter Legion. The Intelligentsia Guild has publicly denounced them: The Antimatter Legion destroys matter, but the History Fictionologists destroy the very universe itself.
