Zeusko: Before even reality and time came into existence, Valkaking, I was a lonely and bored god, as it comes with omnipotence. When you know every outcome, every variable, and every future, existence is just a closed loop. I needed chaos; I needed story. To remedy this, I conceived a plan that would birth not just a world, but realities that could never die. I decided to create the fundamental energy of the cosmos: Soulkai. This became the underlying force, the lifeblood, and the pure spiritual energy of everything that would ever be. But Soulkai alone was too perfect, too static. It was a white page with no ink. So, I birthed its shadow, the corrupting, potent force of Anti-Soulkai to inherently oppose and disrupt the former. This conflict, this struggle between the two forces, was necessary to inject excitement, reason, and story into my new reality. I then combined them. The collision was not destruction, but creation. Soulkai and Anti-Soulkai fused and burst into a brilliant tapestry of spiritual life and structured worlds: the Afterlives...

The first to form was Heaven, which stood at the pinnacle. It was perfect light, perfect harmony. My Seraphims, Devas, and Mala'ikahs took their first flight, immediately consumed by praise and the desire to assist me as I took my throne. But from the birth of perfect good, perfect evil manifested. This was Hell. Unlike Heaven's singular goodness, Hell's evil was splintered into the Nine Circles Pride, Greed, Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, Sloth, Apocalypse, and finally, the chaotic Gates themselves. These were immediately raided with demons, shedims, shaitans, asuras, and Mara's. Their evil, however, doesn't even compare to the root of it all: Barakmaa the Devil Lord. He became my equal in representation, the supreme embodiment of evil but never in power. A truth he knew, and a limitation he hated, but one he couldn't rebel against... not yet, at least.

What was left over the unneeded structure and residual energy I used to form Purgatory. In this transient realm, angels and demons who have risen or fallen congregate, either seeking comfort or locked in endless combat. Only those who are strong enough and possess true, singular will can break free from Purgatory and exit into their personal, perfect reality.

And under that was Limbo, the very nothingness that the Afterlife was born out of. I looked at that void, Valkaking, and decided I needed one more thing before I left this reality to its own mechanisms. I loved the Afterlife, but I wanted something distinct

something that could surprise even me. I would give mortals their own reality.

I created the Super Soul Gem and dropped it far below Limbo. It exploded into an endless amount of worlds and possibilities. Worlds containing sentient quarks that treat atoms as their own universes; worlds with stars so bright that time and dimensions as a whole can't even hold them. With all these realms came a beyond-numeral amount of timelines, ensuring there was no limit to how the mortal reality could express itself. I named this infinite expanse the Spirit Realm.

Once it was done, I looked up. I saw the dreams from every living and non-living being, both transcending the Afterlife and rising from the Spirit Realm, merging to make a realm of pure unconscious expression. I finely tuned this collective tapestry and named it Dreamrealm.

And then, only then, Valkaking, I rested to think. I knew the existence of Nirvana, that ultimate state where I could simply let go of it all. But I chose to be a creator, and I chose to remain. I chose to be as close with my creations as I possibly could.

Valkaking's silence was heavy as he processed the vastness of the tale. 

Valkaking: I am... nothing but grateful for your wisdom my lord... but why tell me this?... Why now?

Zeusko simply smiled, the first genuine expression of a bored god in epochs. 

Zeusko: The time will come, Valkaking. And once it does... you will understand it all.
