For The Love of Blythe
Our "Green Team" dolly for the "For The Love of Blythe" project has arrived here! She already has an amazing re-root in Mystic Brown Thermal Saran by Sherri/Shershe. Here she's just a stock dolly, but I wanted to show her at the very beginning of her journey ... in a place and setting that also corresponds to her story. Grab a cuppa and take a journey with us! Thank you for visiting!
Genesis (gen·e·sis: noun \ˈje-nə-səs\ : the origin or coming into being of something.)
Her story:
Genesis bit her lip thoughtfully as she entered the last of the encryption code. It was the last step in a years-long process that she hoped would make herself, and her world, whole again.
The future is not a bleak place ... it can be populated with dreams of exploration, growing families, beauty and fulfillment. But the future Genesis lived in was in dire need of help. Her world was dying, societies fractured by a desperate need for resources, children growing up in large group homes because their parents could not afford to care for them.
Genesis had come through this system, yet against all odds she had retained her tenacity and belief in her destiny. She somehow understood in the deepest points of her being that a solution lay in the distant past, where a secret government experiment had set everything in motion. She knew her lineage, that it could be traced back to Dr. Franklin Genesis Martin, her distant ancestor and a brilliant scientist who developed a new mining technology in the late 1800's. Aware even then that minerals and fuel held the key to the future, the secret was carefully held and put into motion at the turn of the century, over the next two hundred years resulting in vast riches for the country and great power. What no one foresaw was that this technology would eventually lead to the gradual breakdown of both the earth and the very resources it was set to glean. As events spun out of control in the late 2200's, governments went to war, people starved, and society became a frayed mass.
Genesis had spent years in tireless research ... with her sweet and persistent charm she wrangled a rare vintage iBook from a teacher in the children’s home when she was 13. With her piercing intelligence she began searching the online archives, a project reaching back into the world’s volumes as far as the mid 1800’s. There she found the one thing Dr. Martin had missed in his deft calculations ... and now her goal was to travel back in time.
Genesis had a daring plan. She would travel to the year 1900 and clothe herself as a girl of that era. Pretending to be the daughter of Dr. Martin’s estranged brother, Genesis would present herself as a willing friend and helper to the family. She knew that her keen mind would encourage Dr. Martin to befriend her and eventually invite her into his laboratory. There, with the benefit of future knowledge, she could delicately merge her carefully derived algorithm into her ancestor’s calculations and the future breakdown could be averted. The other prong of her two-fold plan was to encourage Dr. Martin and his powerful benefactors that this knowledge must be shared among the countries of the earth ... that for one country to control this wealth and technology led only to fighting and despair as others sought to gain some part of it for their own people.
Genesis knew she had to try. One thing disturbed her, an answer she had not found. Once she arrived in the past, she could correct the problems for all the future people of the earth ... but she could not return to her time without help. Her only hope was that someone, eventually, would discover her records, her stories, her photographs ... and be willing to take the steps necessary to bring her back.
