It is the year 3015. A boy is browsing the history books when he finds one that (poorly) depicts the 21st century. In it, there is a section called "Valve and early religions."
The boy becomes interested and revives Gabenism.
His parents took an interest in their boy's new found passion, and they enjoyed hearing him pray the ancient prayers before every meal.
One night, the boy chose to pray the ancient prayer of threes. "Lord Gaben, bring me luck with skins and wins and hats. Thank you for learning threes. Thank you for this game thricefold now, as the prophets foretold. Amen."
At this his father gives a chuckle.
His son looked up, and a little bit hurt, he asked, "What's so funny?"
The dad then says, "Sorry son, but even I know that Half Life 3 is an ancient myth."
