Nina had always been fascinated by the story of the Titanic. She had read every book, watched every documentary and knew the ship's history inside out. She was intrigued by the idea of going back in time and changing the course of history. She had heard of other time travelers who had tried to change historical events with disastrous consequences, but she was confident that she could change the course of the Titanic's fate without causing any harm.

Nina set the time machine to April 10, 1912, the day before the Titanic set sail. As soon as she arrived, she made her way to the White Star Line's offices in Southampton. She convinced them that there was a mechanical problem with the ship's engines and that the Titanic needed to be delayed for a week. The company executives were skeptical, but Nina managed to convince them that it was for the best.

With the Titanic's departure delayed, Nina made her way to a nearby hotel to wait out the week. She spent her days exploring the city of Southampton and immersing herself in the culture of the time. She had never felt so alive, and she knew that she had made the right decision to come back in time.

A week later, Nina made her way to the docks to see the Titanic set sail. She watched as the ship slowly made its way out to sea, and she felt a sense of pride knowing that she had played a small part in altering the course of history. She returned to her time machine, satisfied that she had changed the course of events without causing any harm.

However, when Nina returned to her own time, she found that the world was not as she had expected it to be. The Titanic had indeed set sail a week later, but it had encountered a massive storm that had caused it to sink, with a much higher death toll than in the original timeline. The Titanic had been carrying different passengers than in the original timeline, and many of them were prominent figures in politics, business and the arts. Their deaths had caused a ripple effect throughout history that had altered the course of events.

Nina had unknowingly set in motion a butterfly effect that would change the world forever. She saw the consequences of her actions playing out in front of her, and she was horrified by what she saw. Nina had always believed that she could change the course of events without causing any harm, but she now realized that there was no such thing as a small change.

Nina spent the next few days exploring the altered timeline, trying to understand the consequences of her actions. She saw the impact that the deaths of certain people had on the world, and she felt a sense of responsibility for their deaths. She knew that she had made a mistake by trying to alter history, and she vowed never to do it again.

Nina returned to her own time, forever changed by her experience. She realized that the past is a delicate balance of events, and that every action has consequences. Nina had tried to change history for the better, but she had only succeeded in making things worse. She had learned a valuable lesson, and she knew that she would never forget it.

From that day forward, Nina dedicated her life to studying history and learning from the mistakes of the past. She became a respected historian, and she used her knowledge to help others avoid the pitfalls of the past. She knew that the past could not be changed, but she believed that the future could be made better by learning from the mistakes of the past. Nina had learned the hard way that altering history was not worth the risk, and she was determined to never make that mistake again.
