The opening of the temporal rift is directly connected to the “end of the Fifth Sun” foretold by the Mayan Long Count calendar. Deep within the ruins of Chichen Itza on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula lies a “Wheel of Time ritual device,” made of quantumized bronze gears and liquid light energy. Its operating principles form a closed loop with the doomsday prophecy that was never activated in 2012. When a modern quantum computer experiment accidentally triggers the energy of the ruins, the structure of spacetime is torn into the shape of a Klein bottle, allowing the “underworld creatures” of Mayan mythology and products of future technology to seep into each other's worlds.
