ONCE THERE WAS ALL!
A shining universe, a third universe, that like all, ran its course. The spiral of the Big Bang, twisting outwards in a beautiful patern as it always must, collapsed, spinning onto itself in a Big Crunch. And no technology, no sorcery, no brave hero or giant or god can stop the fall of a Universe run its course.

But in the cosmic nothing that follows
There was All once more. A fourth world spinning outwards from a cosmic center. From the Universe Oak's mighty roots that dip into the fundamental strong and weak forces, to its nth dimensional body and branches that hold up the Dome of the Heavens. Planets and stars spring as leaves upon it, galaxies form as branches, the Universe Oak stands tall at the center of the universe.

So another universe was born
So another universe will die in 10^1000 Centuries.
But there, in the fourth universe, were born new gods. Gods who carried with them the techno-sorcerous secrets of a world swallowed by shadows, who live ten tenthousand lives, reborn again and again from the pattern of the spiral. To wage war against the ancient enemies, the Gods of Wickedness and Erebus.
Erebus, 混沌 , χάος - The source of all wickedness and chaos in the universe, a thing of darkness that seeks to swallow the Pattern of the Spiral and Doom all Existence. It does this not out of Spite or Tyrannical joy, it is simple Love. Erebus has fallen in love with the Doom of the Universe and seeks to bring its Love into being.

The servants of Erebus are numerous and powerful, Gods of Wickedness sprung from the thrumming dark-matter heart of the antispiral and pounding gravity of the black hole brain that make up the galaxy-spanning shadow of Erebus.

But none are more feared than the God of Tyranny, the dread Shadowlord. Their world orbits at the tipping point of destruction around the great black-hole that is the source of Erebus, and from here they war against the universe at large, to pull down the Spiral of Galaxies and the Dance of Gravity for the love of their Proginator...

So the war Rages. Now and Forever, until the Gravic Ragnarok of the Big Crunch resets All and begins anew....
