In the beginning, there was only one. Eternal—the purest god, the first being before all existence—crafted the foundation of reality. He created seven planets, each gifted with life and purpose, intended to be jewels in the crown of creation. But fear grew among the other gods. They saw Eternal’s unmatched power, his ability to shape and destroy, and they conspired against him.

  Eternal was betrayed, not just by his fellow gods but by the one he loved most: Val, the goddess of love and war. During his trial, he pleaded with the seven planets to speak in his defense. They stayed silent. For this, and for Val’s betrayal, he was cast into a black hole, a prison of cosmic nothingness.

  In the darkness, time had no meaning. There, in agony and rage, Eternal forged Oblivion—a living battle axe infused with his will and pain. Oblivion could split planets, erase existence, and absorb the energy of all it devoured. It resonated only with him.

  Eventually, the seal weakened. Eternal emerged, vengeance burning in his soul. He began his rampage, destroying the planets he once created. One by one, they fell. On the sixth planet, a mortal chosen by the gods—Sentinel Prime—stood to defend it. Prime fought valiantly, buying time as Hercules intervened. The gods strengthened Prime with divine energy, but it wasn't enough. Eternal toyed with him.

  Before the seventh planet could fall, Prime teleported it away. Eternal was amused. He had all of time.

  Each god who stood against him was devoured. Their essences became his. With each conquest, his power grew. He wielded Devouring Essence, Anti-Existence Energy, Reality Bending, Absolute Willpower, a Black Hole Core, and even Creation itself.

  Eventually, he reached Olympus. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades confronted him. They fought with the combined might of the heavens, but Eternal, with Oblivion in hand, annihilated them. He consumed them whole, their magic becoming his fuel.

  Then came Vael. Once a close ally, now a cursed soul, Vael had watched Eternal’s wrath unfold from the confines of space. Freed accidentally by a mortal named Valkyries, Vael remained cursed—able to see Eternal’s actions always, but powerless to stop them unless Eternal chose otherwise.

  On the seventh planet, Eternal faced one last challenge—a warrior crafted by generations of experimentation using ancient magic. This being was powerful, trained solely to stop Eternal. Yet, it failed. With a single swing of Oblivion, Eternal shattered the warrior and claimed the final piece of his vengeance.

  Lunara, the Deity of Stars, then entered his path. She looked exactly like Val. She understood Eternal’s vision and thirst for power. Drawn together by fate, rage, and cosmic lust, they became one. Together, they vowed to craft a new universe where only they and those they created would exist.

  They moved to Oblivion’s Rest—a realm outside existence itself. But their conquest wasn’t over.

  Eternal and Lunara launched an assault on Heaven, the realm of Angels and Archangels. The battle shook reality. One Archangel, Selifa, saw Eternal for who he truly was—the true God. She betrayed her kin and swore loyalty to Eternal, converting a fifth of Heaven’s army. For her loyalty, Eternal made her his second wife.

  In the Throne Room of Heaven, the Supreme Beings trembled. They tried to escape using ancient magic circles, but Eternal destroyed all but one, casting the last survivor into the Void as a warning.

  When Eternal and his brides exited the Throne Room, they found fallen Archangels—those who refused him—littering the ground. Eternal congratulated Selifa for her loyalty and power.

  Suddenly, he sensed a presence through a rift—a being watching. Before Eternal could raise Oblivion, the being fled. Unshaken, Eternal turned back.

  With Lunara and Selifa at his side, the God of Gods returned to Oblivion’s Rest. There, he began constructing a reality of his own making—a dominion of silence, power, and eternity.

  But in the shadows of the void, new forces stirred. Eternal’s reign was only beginning.
