Preface

Going to school, getting up for work, chores, and paying the bills. These are daily tasks that we all have to deal with. Or as most call this, reality.  Reality is that feeling that no matter how hard you try; you are going to fail. Fantasizing about extraordinary worlds seems like a distant dream. Reality can be harsh and unforgiving, yet within its challenges emerges a force more profound and uplifting: Fantasy.

While some may dismiss fantasy as inconsequential, those of us immersed in The Festival of the Nexus Gate understand otherwise. Fantasy is an escape, a psychological necessity divergent from reality. It encompasses knights in shining armor, magic wielders saving kingdoms, crazed scientists plotting world-altering schemes, superheroes, magical girls, and the ability to soar—anything our imagination can conjure and so much more.

This understanding forms the core of The Festival of the Nexus Gate. Yet, within these realms, we acknowledge something deeper—a Nexus of Worlds, where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur into a synergy greater than the sum of its parts.

Long ago, the magic living within the Nexus, chaotic in nature, acting autonomously until, by chance, the Prime Gate materialized. It instilled order while allowing chaos to still flourish. Some claim a young boy, made of pure magic, crafted the Gate, seeking an escape from his solitude. Others say a girl, wishing for the fantastic to escape her loneliness, gave birth to it.

Determining the true account is impossible. Such is the nature of lore—truth entwined in a tapestry of reality and fantasy. As you delve deeper into these tales, a singular truth will emerge: reality was never meant to be set in stone.
In this ever-shifting landscape as countless universes blink in and out of existence and mingle with our own, we can guide you down this mystical rabbit hole,through the Realms of Nexus , you might just catch a glimpse of what happens when reality and fantasy intertwine, here within the tales of the Guardians of the Gate.
