Despite claiming to be the ruler, Peralitus does very little ruling whatsoever. All the important tasks such as stabilizing the Beyond Bubble, caring for Monopolum and Binauris, defending the group from Transcendent Ecosystem creatures and gathering energy are performed by Abnull.

Peralitus instead spends most of his time dreaming of what great achievements he could obtain once he becomes strong enough to exit the Logical Desert and enter the local Cohort. He imagines himself becoming a revered hero and leader of hundreds of Supergods, just as he presumed Barelitil to be. Peralitus seems to hold absolutely no regard for the Supergods he lives with and has implied he would abandon them in a heartbeat to benefit himself.

Outside of dreaming up wild fantasies, Peralitus also spends a considerable amount of time talking to a Barelitil fragment he found inside one of the Beyond Bubble's only Monocosms. This Barelitil fragment speaks very highly of Peralitus and it was its words that first suggested Peralitus may be Barelitil's son. Whenever Peralitus tells this fragment about his incredible 'achievements', it responds by telling Peralitus how proud he is, how competent he has become and what a 'perfect fit' he will be. It was this language that convinced Peralitus that Barelitil intended to appoint him as leader.

Abnull finds the amount of time he spends talking to this Barelitil fragment utterly absurd. In fact, she finds everything about how Peralitus acts utterly absurd. From his pitiful idea that he is somehow the 'leader' to his strange obsession with a heritage he doesn't even know exists to his ludicrous ideas about authority. Peralitus, in return, thinks very lowly of Abnull and is astonished and angered at how much the other Broken Supergods seem to respect her and treat her as the leader. Peralitus would gladly exile her if he actually had the means to, though both Peralitus and Abnull know that Abnull would prevail in a physical fight between the two.

Peralitus is also annoyed by Negatil's constant criticism of him and her more general complaints about 'unjust hierarchies', a concept that is completely alien to Peralitus. Surely, it is the strength of the hierarchy and the being at the top that provides its justice? Peralitus holds less resentment for Negatil than Abnull however, as Negatil's anger is not targeted specifically at Peralitus and most of the other Broken Supergods can also agree that Negatil is obnoxious.

Peralitus appreciates Positev's helpful and encouraging praise of his endeavors and pride in his heritage, and considers Positev to be is "second in command". (A role Positev completely ignores.) However, Peralitus is nonetheless annoyed that Positev seemingly also considers Abnull the leader for all practical purposes.

Peralitus also appreciates Schematus's attempts to decipher the Broken Supergods' past, however like Abnull is annoyed at how he wastes his incredible potential. Although it's likely that Abnull and Peralitus have very different ideas of what Schematus putting his skills to good use looks like. While Abnull believes his amazing intelligence and abilities could be used to support the Broken Supergods, Peralitus believes that Schematus could one day monetize and sell his incredible inventions and ideas across the Cohort, gaining recognition for both Schematus and Peralitus.

Venrensorys

Venrensorys is the personification of everything the Supergod Council stands against. Any principle which the Supergod Council upholds is a principle which Venrensorys despises. Any idea which the Supergod Council fights against is one which Venrensorys embodies. The Supergod Council values order, subordination, co-ordination, unity, selfless actions and consideration of consequences. Thus, Venrensorys embodies chaos, freedom, a lack of co-ordination and decision making on a purely selfish basis with no regard for consequences. As the Supergod Council is the highest, supreme force of judgement within all of Beyond it can be considered that they set the standard for what is 'good'. As such, Venrensorys as their opposite would embody all that is 'evil'. Its physical form is even more powerful than Hellensoerensen.

Venrensorys's body has been destroyed by the Supergod Council but its consciousness still remains within Beyond and the Supergod Council cannot get rid of it, so it will not be long before Venrensorys acquires a new body.

The Eternal Legion

The Supergod Council had been controlling Beyond and the many Monocosms within for longer than time as a concept even existed, and were considered by those few who knew of their existence to be the supreme source of authority. Compared to them, lesser beings (referred to as 'mortals' by Supergods) were effectively insignificant and easily replaceable. One single mortal or even divine life was not relevant to the greater effort to preserve order, balance and stability. And so, when one Destroyer in one Monocosm had attempted to murder one of the Supergods in fear, their natural first instinct was to erase it.

This Supergod, known as Paradoxus, was not in fact a member of the council yet and should never actually have entered this Monocosm. Without fully understanding the results of his actions, Paradoxus has unknowingly massively destabilitised this Monocosm. The lack of a Destroyer combined with the indecision of its Creator allowed an alternate version of the Eternal Legion to rise to power far more rapidly than within The Barrel, quickly gaining control over the entire Omniverse. They were led by an alternate version of Hyperman, who craved supreme power and authority over not just his Monocosm but the entirety of Beyond. Quickly advancing the Eternal Legion's technology to allow travel throughout The Outside, Hyperman was able to drain the two Godverses for energy and overpower and kill Creator, becoming the supreme force of authority within his Monocosm. Under his leadership, their technology grew powerful enough to manufacture Omniverses and turn their Monocosm into a Multiverse of Omniverses, with Hyperman's Godverse at the center.

After they discovered the existence of Beyond and its infinite alternate Monocosms, their next goal became taking over all Monocosms, including The Barrel. Though, no doubt the Supergod Council would prevent them, so if they wished to expand their empire they would have to take them out. They began gathering information on the Supergods as well as the other Monocosms and soon realized their Monocosm was not meant to be the way it was. They also discovered that mistakes such as that which allowed for the rise of the Eternal Legion were usually corrected by the Supergod Council, and believed was only a matter of time before the Supergod Council came to erase their empire.

From the Supergods' perspective, the Eternal Legion was a tiny threat. While they were far more powerful than any Creator or Destroyer, they were insignificant next to the power of even a single Supergod. Thus, they never actually attempted to correct the error at all. However, the Eternal Legion had no way of knowing this, and continued to remain alert, believing that a Supergod could arrive to erase them at any time.

Eventually, one of the Supergods named Unthil had discovered the Monocosm and found its contents to be intriguing. When he entered the Monocosm simply to inspect it, the Eternal Legion perceived it to be an attack and activated their trap. Using their unnaturally advanced technology combined with Hyperman's intellect and ingenuity, they were able to freeze Unthil within The Outside and stop him from requesting help from the other Supergods. Hyperman had intended to then possess Unthil's physical form, thus giving himself enough power to fight back against the other Supergods. However, what Hyperman had not expected was that even when restrained, Unthil's reflexes kicked in and in a desperate bid to survive, Unthil reflected Hyperman's own ability back at him. This caused them to both possess each-other at the same time, allowing them both to briefly share the same consciousness. Hyperman then experienced Unthil's Omniscience^3, his eternal knowledge of not just everything that could be thought but everything that couldn't as well. He saw all of the infinite Beyond Bubbles within Transcendentem, and all the infinite -verses beyond, stretching all the way out into The Barrelplex. He realized now how truly meaningless his own life was, as well as that of his empire and the Supergods. He had no will left to carry on. He let go.

His mind fell into the abstract plane of concepts and thoughts while Unthil regained control of his physical form and broke free of his prison. The wave of energy released from Unthil breaking free, combined with his brief inability to control his own strength, resulted in the destruction of the Eternal Legion around him, leaving behind nothing but an empty Monocosm.

The Supergod Council believed this to be an isolated incident which had been fully resolved. But in reality, this was only the beginning.

The External Hazard

At the same metatime as Hyperman's mind entered the abstract plane, so too did another entity, which had been traveling through Transcendentem and had entered our Beyond Bubble randomly. This entity was a Stage I Seed from the External Hazard. As they both entered this plane at the same metatime, their consciousnesses became one. Normally, Stage I Seeds attempt to subtly infiltrate the Beyond Bubbles they attach themselves to to transform that Beyond Bubble into a piece of the mind of Najha-Tebah, an ancient Cosmic Entity from beyond Transcendentem itself. However, now the Stage I Seed would attempt to transform the Beyond Bubble into Hyperman's mind. Of course, Hyperman was a being with the intellect of only a Monocosmic entity; his mind was far too primitive to be spread across an entire Beyond Bubble. It would be like creating an entire universe out of the mind of a newborn baby. As such, what the Stage I Seed truly began to spread was an abstracted version of Hyperman's mind. Specifically, his hatred of The Supergod Council. As such, this Stage I Seed represented the exact opposite of what The Supergod Council stood for. This mindset and consciousness eventually became known as 'Venrensorys'.

Over metatime, Venrensorys began to slowly infiltrate our Beyond Bubble, creating God Larvae which further spread its influence. The introduction of these creatures into the many Monocosms caused events to unfold in strange ways which led to situations that never arose before. The most obvious of these events were the numerous entities which escaped their Monocosms and discovered Beyond.

The Supergods were entities beyond time, so they knew that any change in the course of events must have a direct cause and began to investigate the existence of Venrensorys. This led them to begin to attempt to destroy all God Larvae they could find, and while this slowed Venrensorys down, it did not stop its expansion. One encounter with a particularly powerful God Larva forced the Supergod Council to again activate a last-resort measure known as 'Project Hellensoerensen', causing further instability and allowing more entities to escape their Monocosms. Following this, not only did ordinary entities find ways to exit their Monocosms, but so too did many extensions of Venrensorys, and they began to congregate around the Monocosm from which Hyperman originated. They had hoped to form a being which could physically challenge The Supergod Council.

When The Supergod Council realized this, Paradoxus arrived to deal with the situation. Paradoxus believed the best course of action was just to obliterate the entire Monocosm and all God Larvae within on the spot. However, before he could do so the God Larvae were able to attach themselves, physically and mentally, to the Monocosm and combine all of their strength together to form a living Monocosm with the mindset of Venrensorys. This creature was so powerful it was able to not only challenge but even overpower Paradoxus, who was forced to call for help from the other Supergods.

Once all Supergods arrived, they chose to activate Project Hellensoerensen, a large Omnipotent^4 automaton piloted by all 6 members of the Supergod Council. This was a mistake, as it allowed all other extensions of Venrensorys to locate the original Monocosm by using Hellensoerensen's immense power as a beacon and using the instability caused by their existence to escape their Monocosms. All extensions of Venrensorys from all across Beyond rushed to merge with the living Monocosm and before the Supergods could do anything to stop it, before them was a single entity embodying every extension of Venrensorys, with even more power than Hellensoerensen. It had gained a complete physical form, and it now decided it was finally time to erase the Supergod Council.

Physical Form

When Venrensorys first took its complete physical form, all beings in all Monocosms within the Beyond Bubble witnessed it. But not all of these entities could comprehend the same amount of information as others, and so each entity perceived Venrensorys differently depending on how they perceive reality. The only appearance of his that we can truly comment on is how humans, and other humanoids who view the world through 3 spatial dimensions and 1 temporal dimension, perceived it. An approximation of how humanity saw it is shown in the image at the top of the page. The being in focus is likely Venrensorys itself while the pyramid behind it is likely a representation of his consciousness embedded within the Stage I Seed.

Conceptual Form

The appearance of the consciousness of Venrensorys, stored within the Stage I Seed that infiltrated our Beyond Bubble, cannot truly be described for it is simply a concept and not a physical thing. However, we know that from a human perspective it is represented as a purple pyramid, and it is known that ordinary Stage I Seed bears the appearance of a pulsating egg-shaped mix of biological and technological matter, so Venrensorys's conceptual form likely appears as a combination of the two. Perhaps a pulsating purple pyramid-shaped mix of biological and technological matter.

Extensions of Venrensorys

Extensions of Venrensorys will take forms of all kinds, and many are far beyond human comprehension, as they exist at all levels of reality up to God Larvae who exist within high level Archverses.

Powers and Abilities

Physical Form

Venrensorys, in its complete form, has Omnipotence^4 on the Omnipotence Hierarchy. Due to the fact that the extensions which combined to make this form originated from every Monocosm, it has collected from them knowledge of all known abilities from all known Omniverses and Godverses, including perfect intellect. This means it can perfectly match Hellensoerensen in terms of abilities. Furthermore, its sheer strength is actually beyond that of Hellensoerensen's by a moderately wide margin, making him the strongest creature in the entire Beyond Bubble.

Conceptual Form

Venrensorys's conceptual form obviously does not physically exist, so it is not capable of performing any physical techniques. It is capable however, of creating Stage II Seeds which can adapt to any Omniverse they are placed into, and the Stage I Seed can do this without the Supergods knowing. Stage I Seeds are also often known to retain many Stage II Seeds and Primary Minds in the conceptual plane to serve as defenses against invaders of both physical and conceptual nature. Given the size and spread of Venrensorys, it can only be assumed that this defensive array is comparable to Omnipotence^4 in the physical realm.

Extensions of Venrensorys

All extensions of Venrensorys have the same powers and abilities as those spawned from other Stage I Seeds. The nature, powers and abilities of these extensions can be found in the External Hazard article.

Venrensorys's Fate

Physical Form

After Venrensorys formed, its first immediate action was to eradicate the Supergod Council. Currently, all members of the Supergod Council were inside of and controlling the large automaton known as 'Hellensoerensen', so Venrensorys immediately attempted to destroy Hellensoerensen. Overall, Venrensorys was more powerful than Hellensoerensen and so as the battle raged on Venrensorys began to win. And it is possible it would have been able to eradicate the Supergod Council, except at its core Venrensorys is the personification of everything the Supergod Council isn't. This includes, most importantly, a need for agreement and unity. The Supergods were to only activate into Hellensoerensen if they were in agreement as to what needed to be done. Venrensorys, meanwhile, embodies freedom, selfish action, individualism, disagreement and separation. This gave it a clear disadvantage when fighting as one single entity as the parts that made up Venrensorys could not agree to work together in unity. The Supergod Council would hopefully be able to use this to their advantage to tip the scales in their favor. All they needed to do was work together.

Unfortunately, many members of the Supergod Council were very young and inexperienced during the fight, and struggled immensely to act in unity as a single entity. Their constant arguments and petty rivalries consistently got in the way of piloting Hellensoerensen, much to the dismay of the Council's leader Conceptilum, who desperately tried in vain to unify Hellensoerensen to target Venrensorys. As the battle raged on, Venrensorys began to gain a significant advantage over Hellensoerensen. As the situation became more and more dire, Conceptilum began to take more and more control over Hellensoerensen, a machine absolutely not safe to be controlled by one entity. After the near death of one of the Council members, the others were somewhat able to put their differences aside and develop a plan to defeat Venrensorys.

Eventually, Hellensoerensen was able to trap Venrensorys in a seemingly inescapable prison created from its own power. Venrensorys refused to be contained, however, and began to build up enough power to destroy the prison. This succeeded, however it alongside the greater battle had damaged the fabric of the Beyond Bubble to such an extent that the two entities began to fall out of Beyond itself. Now that the Supergod Council had been distracted, Venrensorys took this advantage to trap Hellensoerensen in the same form of prison, created from Hellensoerensen's power. The Supergod Council could have done something to prevent this, but chose not to. Venrensorys, with its lack of care for consequences, had sealed its own doom. Now that The Supergods were trapped, they could no longer fall out of Beyond, while Venrensorys could.

Venrensorys found itself in a strange realm, surrounded by an infinite number of Beyond Bubbles just like what it perceived to be all of existence. This realm was so far beyond the comprehension of Venrensorys that it couldn't even discern where it was in this realm at any one time, like a human thrown into a dimensionless void. The very fabric of existence which it had lived its entire life and lack of life within was no longer present. Mere existence around Venrensorys began to violently tear it apart and, in human terms, it began to disintegrate. With Venrensorys gone, the prison it created disappeared as well, freeing the Supergod Council.

Conceptual Form

While Venrensorys's physical form was gone, its consciousness still existed. It likely could have continued infecting Omniverses with Stage II Seeds as normal, however this experience had permanently altered Venrensorys. Venrensorys was simply a concept, merely the idea of opposition to The Supergod Council and its principles. But this concept had never actually come into contact with the Council before. Hyperman had, but his memories were primitive simplifications of the Supergods as he could never truly comprehend their full selves. But now that Venrensorys had directly interacted and battled with them, it became clear that the Supergods were not just some vague idea of authority, but a group of distinct entities. And Venrensorys would not just stand in opposition to their ideals, but also to their beings.

Suddenly, Venrensorys began to change. All of its extensions within Beyond began to quickly erase their physical forms and returned to the conceptual plane. It was as if Venrensorys had suddenly gained some sense of identity and sentience. It could think, and it could plan…

Extensions of Venrensorys

All previously existing extensions of Venrensorys were destroyed when its physical form was destroyed. While new ones were created at first, it was not long before mysteriously and inexplicably, they all vanished from across Beyond. Some Supergods such as Paradoxus and Realitus were relieved at this turn of events, believing that by destroying Venrensorys's physical form, they had also destroyed its conceptual form. Others such as Unthil and Conceptilum, however, were more paranoid, believing that this experience had somehow enhanced Venrensorys, and that in response to their battle it had abandoned its old strategy and begun to attempt something new.

The Council and Kotoblade

After Venrensorys had been defeated, the SuperGod Council tried to focus their efforts on repairing any damage that had occurred during their fight. Realitus and Imaginatim rebuilt any damaged or destroyed omniverses, Paradoxus and Logixel recreated any slain Creators and Destroyers, and Unthil and Conceptilum were to scout for areas of Beyond that may need repair.

While Conceptilum was searching for external damage, he noticed a small monocosm that he had never seen before just outside of Beyond. The SuperGod went over to the monocosm and inspected it very closely. He found that it had properties that could allow for no mortal or even any entity comparable to strength to Creator or Destroyer to directly escape it. In fact, the verse was locked so securely that an entity comparable in power to Conceptilum would struggle to inspect its internal properties properly. Conceptilum recalled that Venrensorys was once a mortal and perhaps this verse could be really useful for preventing any future incidents similar to that of Venrensorys's rise and attack. If a hypothetical entity was one suspected to be one that would cause trouble yet did not really need immediate erasure, they could be placed into this realm.

Of course, the other members of the Council had to approve of using the verse as a means of dealing with entities. He took the verse and showed it to Unthil. He explained his idea of how the verse could be used. Unthil was instantly very suspicious, seeing as nobody had ever seen this verse before and on top of that, it was very difficult for him—an entity used to instantly knowing practically everything about an object presented to him—to observe the interior of the verse. The only reasonably efficient strategy to place abusive entities in the verse he could see was to leave the monocosm outside of Beyond and whenever the Council had to place an entity in the realm, they had to get out of Beyond, activate Hellensoerensen, and put in the entity inside. Even then, that strategy seemed very awful and risky to Unthil, pointing out that the Council may not be careful enough to run Hellensoerensen that often and the strategy goes under the assumption that the verse was even safe. Unthil then presented a variety of pessimistic possibilities regarding the verse. What if the verse was internally very unstable and may influence Beyond even from outside? What if the verse had some sort of connection to Venrensorys? What if entities could just grow in power from within the verse? What if said entities have a chance of becoming more powerful than a SuperGod or Hellensoerensen and the verse will serve to bottle up the entity's power? What if there was already said entity locked in the verse?

Conceptilum, getting more and more annoyed with his son, asked Unthil if his suspicions actually were based on anything he could actually observe about the verse. Unthil only retorted that his suspicions were based on what he could not observe about the verse. Conceptilum then asked if Unthil was okay with the usage of the verse. Unthil told his father that he can do whatever he pleased with the verse since he seemed so sure about what the Council should do. A Conceptilum very annoyed with Unthil would then enter Beyond to hold a meeting mainly regarding the monocosm. Paradoxus and Logixel were nearby and very soon arrived at the meeting. Unthil was quick to state that the rest of the Council already knows how Realitus and Imaginatim would take the addition of the new verse and their inputs probably might not even matter. Unthil supposed that Imaginatim would be too stupid to understand what in Beyond was going on and Realitus would happily agree to have the realm around but would try to completely abuse his power when requesting usage of the verse. Conceptilum did not want to say it but he agreed with what Unthil had just said about his siblings. He went ahead and started the meeting, but Realitus and Imaginatim were free to join at any moment and have their input heard.

Paradoxus was confused about why the Council would need a device such as the new monocosm at first. He asked Conceptilum and Unthil why the Council couldn't just erase every single abusive entity. After all, if the Hyperman that became Venrensorys had been erased, then the damage done to Beyond could not have been done. Logixel, a SuperGod who greatly sympathized with Venrensorys after the incident, put in that perhaps this new realm would be a place of rehabilitation, and perhaps the entity, upon exiting, will be changed as a person and will perhaps contribute to the stability of Beyond. Logixel then asked Unthil if the monocosm was actually safe to put entities in, only to gain a very conflicted opinion about the monocosm after Unthil and Conceptilum pointed out that he did not actually know. Unlike Paradoxus, Logixel thought the best way to prevent another Venrensorys was to treat all beings kindly and respectfully—giving them no reason to become vengeful towards the Council. If this realm was an inhumane means of confining entities, "banishing" entities into this monocosm would straight up make the verse a new Venrensorys creator. Paradoxus abruptly interrupted Logixel, pointing out that frequent activations of Hellensoerensen could also contribute to enabling more entities like Venrensorys to rise to power and even cause more instability to the already vulnerable Beyond bubble. Conceptilum pointed out that any future activations of Hellensoerensen for the usage of the new verse had to always be done outside of Beyond and that, while Conceptilum disagreed that all beings deserved respect and a chance for redemption, Logixel might have a good point worth considering. If this new realm was not an ideal space to house entities, it will not be very surprising at all if said entities would want revenge. If the realm allowed for entities to grow in power, then said vengeful entities would become very dangerous.

Realitus arrived at the meeting, very upset that he was not invited to it. After giving a barrage of very unnecessary insults to a very tolerant but fed up Unthil for not inviting him, he demanded to know what was going on. Conceptilum explained what was going on and sure enough, Realitus was delighted to have the monocosm around and approved of Conceptilum's ideas on how to handle entities using it. Anyone present in the meeting could tell that he was just happy to have some means of banishing those who opposed him. When Unthil accused Realitus of this, Realitus just scoffed at him and left the meeting, claiming he had other important business to attend. Everyone knew that he was off to make more omniverses and berate Imaginatim for doing nothing properly. Paradoxus was furious but before he tried to eviscerate his younger brother, Logixel stopped him. Logixel told Paradoxus that attacking Realitus would do more harm than good in the long run. Logixel also pointed out there is good in everyone, including Realitus and perhaps one day, Realitus will realize the error of his ways and show his true colours all while his brothers disagreeably stared at him. Conceptilum said nothing about the matter. Logixel then asked Unthil, who was taken aback by Logixel's new courage to speak up, if there were any plans to inform Imaginatim. Unthil told his older brother that there were, but he won't expect any useful insight to come from discussing it with her.

The four SuperGods, with Unthil carrying the recently found monocosm, traversed the Beyond bubble to look for Imaginatim, only to find her nearby a wormhole leading to inter-Beyond space. She was playing with a very small yet very sturdy spacecraft that somewhat resembled a dagger and in the craft were ten very disoriented mortals. Seven of the mortals were passed out, likely due to being overwhelmed by a sudden appearance from Imaginatim and probably had to harbour any ideas beyond their comprehension that Imaginatim decided to have them store. It seemed likely that these mortals had planned on exiting Beyond and considering the state of Beyond at the moment, it was possible that these entities could come back stronger than ever and pose a direct threat to the Council and Beyond. The version of the Eternal Legion led by the Hyperman who became Venrensorys was left to live outside of Beyond long ago and the memories of Venrensorys' attack were still fresh in the Council's minds. Who knows if these new mortals were allied with Venrensorys or have any similar malicious intentions? A resolution had to be found at once.

A "court"-like debate was soon instigated for the ten travelers on the spot. Unthil, still rather upset, chose not to invite Realitus again. The travelers happened to be members of an organization known as The Cosmic Reconnaissance and were part of an expedition known as "Expedition ?-1A". The spacecraft was called "Omnius-Infinity", the name apparently given to it by the pilot. Unthil remarked that the spacecraft had a very stupid name. This hurt the pilot's feelings. Logixel, upon noticing that the mortal was hurt sharply told Unthil off and proceeded to attempt to calm the pilot down. Logixel then asked the pilot for his name. The pilot gave the second eldest SuperGod his name, it was Satoru Nanimo. Before Logixel could ask for the names of the rest of the crew, Paradoxus shut him up. Paradoxus very angrily inquired the crew on what they were trying to do. Much of the crew made very crude speeches about exploration and freedom. All but one SuperGod could tell that the intentions of all but one crew member were indeed malicious. The one SuperGod was Imaginatim who, throughout all the interviews of the Omnius-Infinity’s crew, only cried about being hungry. The one crew member was Satoru. Satoru seemed very dense and it was clear that he had been quite easily tricked by his fellow crewmates into supporting them and was unaware of their very obvious and rudimentary plan to rise in power and take over many monocosms. Right after Unthil called the crew out on their plan, they attempted to retaliate by attacking the SuperGod. Upon the ship's first move, Paradoxus swiftly erased five of the mortals—much to the shock of all the present SuperGods but Unthil. Conceptilum was upset not only because Paradoxus had executed half the crew before a verdict was decided but that Paradoxus did not think before he acted—he truly expected much better from his eldest son after Venrensorys's attack. Logixel was mortified as he just witnessed the deaths of five living beings who did not see their demise coming and five other beings left traumatized at the sudden erasure of their crewmates. Imaginatim was confused and particularly stressed out because five of her "new friends" disappeared and did not even say goodbye. Unthil paid a small bit of attention the remaining five crew members—one of which was Satoru. As he did, Unthil noticed one of the crew members slowly reaching for the controls for a cannon to fire at the Council. Slightly annoyed and dissatisfied, Unthil decided to paralyze all of the crew members and wait until the Council would stop arguing.

It was soon decided among Paradoxus, Unthil, and Conceptilum that an execution of all of Omnius-Infinity’s crew but Satoru would not be a bad idea, much to the great dissatisfaction of Logixel and Imaginatim. Paradoxus handled the erasure of the crew members while Logixel could not bear to watch it unfold. Imaginatim was mortified when the crew was executed, but could not coherently express her stress. Logixel tried his best to comfort his younger sister as Paradoxus erased the crew. Imaginatim still complained about her hunger. Logixel calmly but sternly told Imaginatim to stop complaining and focus on the trial—nourishment will be provided to her after everything was dealt with and the last thing to do was decide what to do with Satoru. The fate of Satoru should be was a point of greater contention than the erasure of the crew. Logixel would more fiercely defend the mortal whenever any option deemed harmful was brought up. Execution was a bad idea as Satoru has not done anything to deserve death. Exile was also a bad idea as inter-Beyond bubble space was still a waste after the Beyond bubble collapse—exiling him would be putting him to death in a much slower and potentially more agonizing way. Sending him back home was not an option—Conceptilum pointed out that sending him back would risk any more entities knowing about the rather disorganized state of Beyond and what lay past. Sending Satoru back with his memory erased was also not a fair option—not only did Logixel loathe the idea of tampering with the mind of a being, but the Council in general was either far too unreliable as a means of mind manipulation and could not follow instructions properly, did not know how to actually erase the mind of a mortal, or would risk having their mind get degraded from figuring out the exact circumstances for an ideal memory erase (especially if the memory erase was to become standard practice).

Conceptilum pointed out that perhaps the monocosm he had found could be a viable place of rehabilitation—perhaps living within this new home may give an opportunity for the mortal to start afresh and live a new life. Unthil once again pointed out that the SuperGods still had no idea what was in the monocosm and again pointed out that he was very strangely unable to actually analyze the verse’s internal structure. Logixel wanted to believe that the new structure may be a safe new home for Satoru but his mind was clouded with doubt. Paradoxus complained that he just wanted this situation over and dealt with. If sending the mortal to the verse was necessary, then so be it. Imaginatim was still very stressed and very hungry. After discussing the situation over, the majority agreed on sending Satoru to the monocosm, albeit some of the agreement was reluctant. Unthil did not necessarily agree but was also not against sending the entity into the realm. Unthil decided to leave the meeting since at this point, the only SuperGod basically left in charge was Realitus and leaving Realitus to be the only SuperGod to manage Beyond was just dreadful. Conceptilum, after muttering to himself that Unthil was the one who left Realitus out, asked Unthil to bring Realitus over so that Hellensoerensen could be activated. Unthil, after remarking about how great an idea that was since having no SuperGod moderating Beyond would be so much better than having Realitus solely moderate Beyond, agreed and left to find Realitus. While Unthil was gone, Logixel kindly explained to Satoru that he would be given a new home and that the SuperGod would never forget him. Satoru said nothing and it was unclear what he thought in the moment. After Unthil arrived back with a Realitus that just would not stop insulting him and unparalyzed Satoru, the Council exited Beyond with Omnius-Infinity and activated Hellensoerensen, overall being cautious to not affect the stability of Beyond. After the activation, Unthil still could not tell what was inside the new monocosm, but now they could safely place objects and entities inside. Omnius-Infinity, with Satoru inside, was placed into the monocosm. After Satoru was gone and Hellensoerensen was deactivated, Realitus was very confused. He demanded that the others give information that he deserved to know. Unthil, fully expecting insults to be thrown at him, told him that they just sent an entity into the new monocosm. Realitus asked if they had done a trial for the entity. Unthil said yes. Realitus threw a fit—he was upset that he was yet again not invited to such an important meeting and he took his anger out on Unthil. While Realitus was ranting, Imaginatim was fidgeting with a new very small yet very intricately designed omniverse she just created. After Realitus finished ranting, he destroyed Imaginatim’s new omniverse and stormed back into Beyond, leaving Imaginatim to pick up the scraps of the omniverse and slowly and sadly absorb them to quench her hunger. Unthil felt tired. He was sick of Realitus’ constantly rude behaviour and hoped that Realitus would soon have some sense brutally beaten into him. It did not matter at all to the SuperGod how he wanted it to go through, he just wanted it to happen.

Many, many eons came and went. Most of the damage that Venrensorys had done was repaired and Beyond was relatively stable. Eventually, Satoru was mostly forgotten about by the SuperGods that debated over his fate. Satoru’s new place of residence ended up being so rarely used that the SuperGods nearly completely forgot about it. Only Logixel remained worried over the fates of Satoru and the very few other entities that they decided to send to the monocosm as well as any friends or family the entities had and would constantly beg an exasperated Unthil to provide information about the mortals so he could quietly try to keep an eye on Satoru’s friends and family after Satoru had been “banished” whenever he had free time, knowing that it was not possible to simply break into the monocosm Satoru was banished to. The memories of Satoru very quickly faded from the minds of many people and Logixel’s watches soon became essentially just a means of spending time and metatime with mortals. Though Logixel knew finding any information on Satoru’s fate was a fruitless effort, he hoped that eventually he might find out something crucial.

One day on a small planet the SuperGod visited, Logixel overheard a conversation between two beings about a very powerful and malicious entity that has been recently causing some trouble among the archverses they called “Kotoblade”. Kotoblade apparently hailed from a realm known only as the “Kalyubi Dimension” and was allegedly the most powerful entity from the dimension—there were apparently even rumours that this Kotoblade was more powerful than the “Super god” that occasionally comes down to the omniverses to form large cults devoted to himself. However, unlike the “Super god” who Logixel instantly figured out the identity of, Kotoblade was seemingly unable to actually use most of his powers to devastate and cause much harm to the verses—apparently Kotoblade was unable to access “existence” physically and required the possession of a mortal entity in order to affect physical objects. The aforementioned possessions were rumoured to have been made by making deals with Kotoblade. But while a being was possessed, said being never actually gained all of Kotoblade’s abilities. Kotoblade’s motivations seemed to be to exact revenge on those who have banished him. Logixel was very concerned upon hearing about the entity and figured that the entity had the potential to cause great harm to many people and if the rumours about Kotoblade’s overall strength were true, perhaps all of Beyond was in danger. Logixel’s experience with Venrensorys has taught him that sometimes not intervening with mortal issues can lead to major catastrophes and he was not going to let the lesson he learned go to waste. A thought that Kotoblade’s origins were connected to the monocosm Satoru was sent away to plagued Logixel’s mind, but the SuperGod did not want to jump to any conclusions. Logixel gathered more useful information about Kotoblade from a large number of other entities and when he felt that the amount of information was satisfactory, set off to present it all to Unthil for an analysis.

Logixel quickly found Unthil and Paradoxus who were having their own discussion. Unthil was found on his way to look for Imaginatim—not bothering to access his omniscient^3 powers not only because he did not want to harm himself but because he did not think Imaginatim would ever get in enough trouble to warrant his powers—make sure she was not doing anything stupid but had to halt his search in order to deal with Paradoxus. Paradoxus was extremely overagitated about a recent monocosmal destruction that an unknown possibly Hyperman-tier entity had caused. Conceptilum was at the moment busy with Hellensoerensen maintenance and Realitus was busy with very proudly creating omniverses. Logixel, in a panic and very concerned about Unthil and Paradoxus’ situation, inquired them about the damage that was done and began to fear that maybe Kotoblade was perhaps aiming to possess stronger entities. Ridden with anxiety, Logixel told his brothers about his discoveries and concern that Beyond was possibly in danger.

Paradoxus immediately dismissed Logixel’s concerns—mortals get possessed by ghosts all the time and it would not be much of a stretch to think that one ghost in particular was just hyping up his power. To Paradoxus, Logixel was being far too paranoid and sentimental over a small issue again. Unthil listened to his brother and even went over to the monocosm Logixel eavesdropped in and screen over the monocosm for suspicious activity from any ghosts that aligned with Logixel’s claims. Unthil was skeptical of the claims too and was somewhat inclined to agree with Paradoxus’s statements. Unthil also pointed out that even if Kotoblade was indeed as strong as people claimed he was, he was probably also very incompetent and rash since very many mortal beings have apparently heard about him and knew a lot about him, including his crimes and plans. Under his breath, he remarked that those qualities were a lot like the traits of another SuperGod he knew. Unthil was also somewhat skeptical that this “Kotoblade” had much of a connection with the monocosm Conceptilum introduced to the Council ages ago. At this point, the Council with its current members have been moderating Beyond for even longer than the entire period Original Council was in charge for and as far as anyone has seen, the monocosm has not shown any signs of external activity or any activity that suggested a connection between it and any other monocosm. Unthil was indeed very skeptical of the monocosm when it was first introduced but so much metatime had gone by and that was more than enough for Unthil and many of the other members to grow more than sure that it was somewhat harmless in nature—though the mistrust of the structure was still present. Logixel then brought up the possibility of Kotoblade possessing a SuperGod and exacting his revenge by destroying as much of Beyond as he could. Unthil, getting more tired of Logixel, pointed out that by this point, surely more than enough mortals knew not to make dumb deals with an obviously sketchy demon. Unthil was then about to remark that if mortals could be as sensible that, then SuperGods would obviously not be stupid enough to strike a deal with Kotoblade. But halfway through making his snarky remark, Unthil realized that there was indeed a SuperGod who might be stupid enough to make a deal with a clearly suspicious character. Paradoxus and Logixel very quickly realized this too and immediately the three SuperGods split up and scrambled to locate Imaginatim as soon as possible.

Conceptilum had finished his routine checkup on Hellensoerensen. The damage that it sustained from the Beyond bubble collapse which made it cause instabilities was still present but it was less prevalent and sooner or later, after the last few necessary resources were found, Hellensoerensen would be safe to use again. The tired and very old SuperGod now wanted to check on monocosmal maintenance. He located Realitus and inquired about the proud SuperGod’s work so far. Realitus showed off all the “perfect” omniverses he created and placed into the monocosms. Conceptilum noticed several destroyed extramonocosmal omniverses. The destroyed omniverses, while lifeless and nearly empty were still more far vibrant and more intricately designed than Realitus’ creations—indicating that they were some of Imaginatim’s creations that Realitus destroyed. Realitus expected his father to be pleased with and compliment his creations, but Conceptilum did not say anything about Realitus’ omniverses. Conceptilum was cross, told Realitus off, and angrily demanded to know where Imaginatim was. Realitus was very upset—he thought Conceptilum had rejected him and his hard work in favour of his sister. Realitus rebuked Conceptilum for caring more about SuperGods other than him like Unthil and Imaginatim and then proceeded to tell Conceptilum that he had enough of Imaginatim and sent her away in disgrace. Conceptilum, alarmed and upset, reprimanded Realitus and then set off to look for Imaginatim. Conceptilum slipped out of his Beyond bubble and searched for his daughter. Conceptilum decided to first check the monocosm used for banishing entities. When Conceptilum arrived at the monocosm, he could not believe what he had just found. Not only was his precious daughter there and fearfully trembling, but there was also an exact copy of her present and it seemed to be in complete agony. Conceptilum, not knowing how to react properly, approached the Imaginatims and tried his very best to remain calm. The clone directed its attention to Conceptilum and desperately pleaded for help.

Unthil was busy anxiously searching for Imaginatim when he noticed Realitus throwing a tantrum. Unthil, aware of how often Realitus and Imaginatim were often put to work together, made his way over to his brother. Before he could ask Realitus about the whereabouts of their sister, Realitus verbally lashed out at his brother and went on a not particularly unusual rant where he blamed Unthil for his problems and lamented about how Conceptilum and Imaginatim were unable to appreciate his hard work and glory. Unthil was tired and already wanted to leave but before he did, he asked Realitus for Imaginatim’s whereabouts. Realitus, out of hatred for his brother, stubbornly refused to answer. After asking a few more times, Unthil figured that trying to get an actual answer out of Realitus would be a colossal waste and gave up. Unthil and Realitus then noticed Conceptilum careening towards them—Conceptilum was battered and was freaking out over “a monster”. Unthil, very put off by Conceptilum’s very unusual behaviour, inquired his father about this “monster”. Conceptilum made some sudden chaotic and spastic reactions to Unthil's remark and then directed Unthil and Realitus’ attention towards an innocently dawdling Imaginatim.

Imaginatim made her way over to a nearby monocosm, only to play with the nearby Hyperman. She did not seem particularly out of the ordinary to Unthil. Unthil’s attention was more directed at his father and the unusually rude statement he had just said about his daughter. Realitus, on the other verse, was more pleased than his brother and then mercilessly mocked his sister alongside Conceptilum to Imaginatim’s cluelessness. Conceptilum seemed all of a sudden intensely interested in his youngest son. Realitus presented his works of perfection to Conceptilum and to the younger SuperGod’s anticipation, Conceptilum congratulated him. Unthil was very bewildered—his father was acting completely different than usual. Unthil remembered Logixel’s fears about Kotoblade possessing a SuperGod—perhaps his elder brother’s fears have actually come to light. But Unthil also remembered that Kotoblade allegedly could only possess entities if he made a deal with them. Unthil could not imagine the careful and considerate Conceptilum who lasted through Xenixel’s reign as leader, survived beyond bubble collapse, and helped come up with strategies for Venrensorys’ defeat ever making any deal with an entity he never knew in his life. What would ever drive Conceptilum to make a deal in the first place?

Unthil grew more and more anxious the more he thought and the more he thought, the more the SuperGod’s omniscient^3 powers started to seep into his mind—giving him intense visions of parallel versions of himself making remarks to Conceptilum. The scenarios ended with Conceptilum erasing his son on the spot. The Beyond bubbles would then be ravaged by the leader of the Council. Collapsed monocosms, deceased Creators and Destroyers, and raging Elder’s fire flooded the SuperGod’s mind. Unthil quickly got ahold of himself. After being confused over whether or not the scenes after his parallel selves were visions of the future—one of the few blind spots his “gift” had—or just mere occurrences from parallel selves, Unthil told his father and brother that he will check on Creator and Destroyer creation management and that he’ll take Imaginatim with him so he could keep an eye on her as well. Unthil decided to say nothing that might come across as rude to whatever had taken over his father’s mind. Conceptilum writhed when Unthil mentioned his sister’s name. Unthil, now very concerned, went over to Imaginatim—who had now helped herself to donating ideas to Hyperman—and told her that he’ll bring her over to Logixel for playtime. Imaginatim was excited—she loved to play games with Logixel. Unthil just wanted to report the leader of the Council’s unusual behaviour to Paradoxus and Logixel. He remembered his father’s stories of having to meet with Matharin, Empiroxus, and Abstractil in secret whenever the Council had to make decisions behind Xenixel’s back. Unthil never thought that such meetings would ever have to happen again. After Logixel had been mentioned, Conceptilum asked Unthil how Logixel was doing. Confused, Unthil responded that Logixel was doing somewhat well. Conceptilum then asked Unthil for Logixel’s opinion on banished entities. Not Unthil more sure that Conceptilum was possessed but he was starting to get very annoyed. He wanted to tell the Council’s leader that he wasn’t Logixel and that he should go ask that SuperGod himself, but he restrained himself. Instead, Unthil told Conceptilum that Logixel still loves and cares for them, though he remains unaware of their fate. Realitus pompously remarked that Logixel still cares far too much about the wrong aspects of mortals and would still refuse to use his great power over mortals to his advantage such as making them do his bidding. Conceptilum was intrigued by what Realitus had just stated. He then asked Realitus to teach him how to make mortals do a SuperGod’s bidding. Realitus started to gleefully teach his elder how to properly manipulate mortals. While Conceptilum was distracted with Realitus’ teachings, Unthil firmly grasped Imaginatim and urgently set off to find Paradoxus and Logixel to warn them that their leader is very likely possessed and that Beyond was in danger and come up with some kind of strategy together.

Paradoxus searched for Imaginatim nearby many collapsed monocosms. While he searched, he noticed that a few of the collapsed monocosms looked heavily tampered with. Upon a closer inspection, Paradoxus came to the conclusion that the moron must have snacked on them somewhat recently. Paradoxus followed a trail of half-eaten monocosms which would eventually reunite him with Logixel. Paradoxus complained to his brother that it was stupid that they kept Imaginatim around for this long when all she does is cause many inconveniences and provide little help to everyone. Logixel was appalled at what his brother said and stated that Imaginatim means no harm and not caring for her would do far more harm in the long run than good. Paradoxus was not convinced. Imaginatim had disrupted balance in Beyond numerous times and had to be kept out of fighting with Venrensorys. Getting Imaginatim out of the equation may do a lot more good for the Council than harm. Logixel reminded Paradoxus about the times Realitus reprimanded him and called him unworthy to be part of the Council. Logixel told Paradoxus that he sounded just like that. Paradoxus was infuriated beyond belief. He was being directly compared to Realitus—the Councilgod he despised most. Logixel backed off and profusely apologized to his brother all while Paradoxus wildly ranted about how he was not at all like Realitus. The bickering between the two, for the umpteenth time, served as a beacon for Unthil to locate his brothers.

After the four SuperGods were reunited, Unthil very quickly explained his suspicions about Conceptilum’s possession to his older brothers. Paradoxus and Logixel were profoundly astounded. One moment, the Council had its wise and capable leader and the next moment, a very dangerous entity had likely taken his place. The mysterious circumstances behind the possession did not help soothe any shock the SuperGods had. How did Conceptilum get possessed in the first place? Was it Kotobade who had taken over their leader’s mind? How would the SuperGods get rid of this entity without harming Conceptilum? Is it possible for Conceptilum to fight Kotoblade from within? Paradoxus then asked about the Council’s leadership—who would be temporary leader while Conceptilum is unable to lead? Logixel was quick to state that Unthil was the very obvious choice. After all, Unthil was very knowledgeable from the start and has strengths when it came to forming strategies. Paradoxus exasperatedly remarked that of course Unthil had to be leader—Conceptilum gave him special treatment and clearly favoured him over the other Council members. Logixel, starting to grow more rash and defensive, exclaimed that Paradoxus was just jealous and just could not see the value in Unthil’s gift even if his life depended on it. Conceptilum could die and Paradoxus would still be too stubborn to accept a leadership from Unthil. Paradoxus angrily told Logixel that he wasn’t stubborn at all—he just did not see any strong leadership qualities in Unthil. To him, Unthil cared about the management of Beyond significantly less than Conceptilum and besides, Logixel should have remembered the last time an omniscient^3 was in charge of Beyond and the moment when another omniscient^3 destroyed balance for her own selfish needs. Imaginatim, likely worried about what Logixel had said about her father, asked Logixel if Conceptilum had already died. Unthil, not sure if Imaginatim had actually paid attention to what was happening and wasn’t just saying things for the sake of it, tried to calmly explain that Conceptilum was not dead and he would be recovered soon—or so he hoped. Logixel grew very worried about the possibility that Conceptilum may actually die if whatever was possessing him stayed around for too long. He anxiously asked Unthil if he had any plans on what to do if Conceptilum actually dies. Unthil, very uneasy with Logixel’s question, said nothing. Paradoxus demanded that Unthil spit out any ideas. Unthil was too nervous to respond with any sarcastic remarks about Paradoxus’ attitude. Imaginatim tightly clung onto Logixel, who sternly reprimanded Paradoxus in Unthil’s place. Paradoxus ignored Logixel and repeated his demands very many times to a trembling Unthil. Paradoxus then indubitably asked Unthil if he had any secrets he was hiding from the rest of the Council. Before Logixel could tell Paradoxus that enough was enough, Unthil responded with a very meek yes and began to tell his siblings about an event that occurred long ago.

Unthil told his siblings that long ago, very shortly after he had just hatched in the collapse and shortly before Conceptilum, Paradoxus, and Logixel sought refuge in his barrier, he had decided to try and make very small devices that were capable of bringing him back to life in the case that he would ever pass away solely out of the limited supplies available. The devices required a somewhat sizable sample of constituent verses of a living SuperGod and Unthil opted to sacrifice some of his constituents, permanently stunting his strength and rendering him physically weaker than even his younger siblings. A single device would activate upon Unthil’s death and create an exact copy of him from right before the moment he died—effectively restoring him and all of his memories. The devices, though they were able to effectively and precisely create existing SuperGods, were far smaller than eggs and were more comparable in size to a metric verse, leaving it fairly easy for any SuperGod to never discover for a very long time. Unthil had figured that Matharin never made such a device as she cared far more about the lives of Conceptilum and her children than her own and possibly harboured a belief that identical copies are not as good as the original hatched entities. Xenixel probably must have made some of the devices, but any may have likely been destroyed in the collapse, preventing him from ever coming back. After tapping into his powers to create the devices, Unthil had received a vision of himself destroying his own mind after using his powers to know everything. After seeing that, Unthil grew very afraid to use his powers to know too much—his sarcasm, dry remarks, and insults were used to disguise the entity perpetually afraid that his mind would be destroyed at any time. Even when presented with entities he might need to make revivors of too, he still would refuse to make any more revivors, as profoundly selfish as that may appear. After the collapse, Unthil hid his revivors away in a few very stable monocosms, hoping that no one would ever find them and that there won’t ever be any emergency cases where he may need them. He didn’t want to destroy them—that would be a waste of hard work and when he died, he would have an inconvenient amount of explaining to do. Unthil would slowly but surely forget how to make the devices and eventually, the prospect of making more revivors would extremely rarely come to mind. Eventually with the aid of Conceptilum, Unthil would slowly grow more comfortable with using his powers for monocosmal problems or lower but the fear still lingered in his mind. Venrensorys was an extraordinarily close call and Unthil is still amazed that no SuperGod had actually died then or even asked Unthil about how to handle a SuperGod death in the heat of the moment.

The point was that if Conceptilum, or any other SuperGod died, it would be basically impossible to restore him without Unthil dangerously tapping into omniscient^3 powers. However, if Unthil were to get killed, he would still live on perfectly fine.

Paradoxus and Logixel had tried to patiently listen to what Unthil had said. To say that Paradoxus and Logixel were appalled would probably be an understatement. They nearly perished from the Beyond bubble collapse and Venrensorys’ attack—any fear from that could have been completely needless and never felt this whole time. After what Unthil told him finally sank in, Paradoxus was absolutely furious. Paradoxus started to incoherently and angrily rant on Unthil, clearly not realizing anything he said at all. Whatever Logixel thought, he was still willing to protect Unthil and so he got Imaginatim to help him hold Paradoxus back from violently lashing out at Unthil. All that commotion had attracted Conceptilum, Realitus, and a sizable army of gods and mortals.

Realitus made an announcement that Conceptilum had promoted him to “second-in-charge”. Logixel, scared and not too careful about what he was saying, immediately mentioned that Conceptilum was an imposter—he was being possessed by a very dangerous entity called “Kotoblade”. Logixel stated that Conceptilum was trapped and unable to do anything at all until the Council could free him. Logixel warned Realitus to not listen to anything the entity would tell him at all costs. The entity possessing the SuperGod’s leader seemed rather impressed that the SuperGods had found out his name as well as rather quickly finding out that Conceptilum was being used. Realitus thought about what Logixel had just told him. He then made his stance clear. Imposter or not, Realitus finally had the approval he desired. That was all that mattered to him. Realitus then mentioned that he and his army have come over to usurp the position of who he considered the current second-in-command, Unthil.

Kotoblade was intently paying attention to Logixel and Imaginatim. He seemed rather disappointed at Logixel and rather wary of Imaginatim. Kotoblade calmly asked Logixel how he felt after all these eons, even mentioning him by name. Logixel was very perplexed. He had no idea how Kotoblade knew his name or why Kotoblade acted as if he knew him personally. Kotoblade did not seem to notice Paradoxus, who was now focusing his attention on Kotoblade. At any moment, Paradoxus might strike. At last, Paradoxus could no longer restrain himself and he blindly attempted to attack Kotoblade. However, Unthil managed to block Paradoxus’s attack and absorb retaliating blows that Kotoblade attempted to deal to Paradoxus. Kotoblade wasn’t about to tolerate SuperGods attempting to attack him. Kotoblade, in a rage, called for his army to attack. He then decided to erase Unthil from existence with his new omnipotent^3 powers.

The imposter Conceptilum got a hold of the severely degraded Unthil and began to viciously deconstruct the far weaker SuperGod. Shocked but realizing that Unthil was giving the SuperGods a chance to escape, Paradoxus swiftly erased a significant number of lowly entities with zero hesitation, firmly grasped onto Logixel and Imaginatim and got away from Kotoblade and Realitus as fast as he possibly could. While Unthil felt the sensation of his siblings’ presence fade as they ran, total nothingness started to surround him. As it did, Unthil remained unable to tell how Realitus felt in the moment. As Unthil’s consciousness was fading away, an outline of an image of his father remained ever present until everything at last disappeared.

Paradoxus, Logixel, and Imaginatim managed to safely flee from Kotoblade and sought refuge near a cohort of monocosms where Hellensoerensen was hidden. Paradoxus was tempted to ask to activate Hellensoerensen, but Logixel told him off before he could. Logixel using Hellensoerensen as a means of erasing or incapacitating Kotoblade was an extremely bad idea as that would also potentially erase or incapacitate Conceptilum if the SuperGods were not too careful. Paradoxus pointed out that it was also a very bad idea to leave the bot alone and free for Kotoblade or Realitus to use. Upon the mention of Realitus, the older SuperGods thought about him. They were very baffled that the SuperGod had joined Kotoblade’s side. Paradoxus wanted to knock some sense into the younger SuperGod, while Logixel wanted to remain hopeful that Realitus would realize the mistake he made before it was too late. In the moment, Realitus likely did not realize that his leader was even possessed and Kotoblade took advantage of Realitus’ desire for attention. Paradoxus criticized Logixel’s optimism—Realitus is far too stupid to realize any of his mistakes. This mistake would not be any different whatsoever and the young SuperGod would never learn. Paradoxus noted that Unthil would likely agree with his opinion on Realitus. Logixel, after shutting Paradoxus up after the older SuperGod mentioned that Realitus was dropped as an egg, thought deeply about Unthil and what he had told the SuperGods. He hoped that Unthil was telling the truth about his devices and that he would appear to them at any moment. Paradoxus hoped that Unthil had told the truth too—but he was more keen to tell Unthil off and have him provide even more information on the situation with his powers. Kotoblade had to be dealt with promptly and without any delay. The older SuperGods remembered to direct their attention towards Imaginatim. They noticed that she was starting to act oddly again. Imaginatim was chatting to herself, having a full conversation with what seemed to be no one at all. The older SuperGods were about to dismiss this as an instance of a new imaginary friend, until Imaginatim referred to her new friend as “Unthil”. Logixel was ecstatic and desperately inquired Imaginatim about Unthil while Paradoxus surveyed his location, in case Unthil was nearby. Unthil was not present at all. The older SuperGods began to grow very worried and unsettled.

Realitus was very alarmed when Conceptilum had slaughtered Unthil. When Conceptilum had agreed to take away Unthil’s power, Realitus had imagined that the omniscient^3 would be simply demoted or perhaps exiled. Instead, Unthil was, at least to him, undeniably permanently erased. Unthil was his least favourite sibling, but he was somewhat unsure about his father’s decision being the right one. Realitus tried his best to convince himself that the decision was entirely in the right—Unthil being gone would mean that he would no longer be around to boss the younger SuperGod around and tell him what he did “wrong”. Deep down, Realitus wondered whatever happened to Unthil being the favourite SuperGod of Conceptilum and wondered if his siblings were right about his father being an imposter too, but he did his best to repress such thoughts. Conceptilum was finally praising him for his work and allowing him to manage Beyond—this was what he had always wanted. Realitus’ other three siblings had fled from Conceptilum and it was possible that they might escape Beyond entirely—leaving the burden of managing everything to only him and Conceptilum. All throughout his life, Realitus had claimed he should run the Council but at this point, there practically was no Council—there were no SuperGod subordinates he could order around—just only one superior. Realitus thought about how he could get Paradoxus and Logixel back to the Council so that Beyond could be managed.

As Realitus thought, he noticed Conceptilum very clumsily attempting to create Creators and Destroyers, presumably to recruit into the army. The created entities were very deformed and disorderly alomic anathemas to Realitus—nothing at all like the Creators and Destroyers Paradoxus and Logixel often admitedly crafted very well. Realitus felt the need to speak up to his leader. Realitus told Conceptilum that his entities looked absolutely horrendous and that they deserved on-the-spot erasure. Before Realitus was about to show how entity creation was to be properly done, Conceptilum suddenly snapped. He destroyed his creations and erased many nearby monocosms. Realitus was surprised. His father throwing a tantrum out of nowhere was a very jarring scene to bestow upon. Realitus grew anxious about the omniverses within the monocosms, but felt quite relieved when he realized that they were Imaginatim’s pitiful creations and not his works of perfection. Conceptilum broke down and blubbered about how “nobody appreciated him” and how he wanted “it all to end” for no apparent reason. The omnipotent^3 entity furiously began to destroy even more monocosms. Realitus, not once thinking about any implications of what Conceptilum had just said, decided to arrange some of Imaginatim’s creations so that they would be in Conceptilum’s way in order for them to be destroyed. Realitus found this very amusing and chuckled to himself. Unfortunately, Conceptilum seemed to take Realitus’ amusement the wrong way and was quick to threaten to take away Realitus’s position in the Council. This shut Realitus up. Conceptilum seemed to calm down and then gently ordered Realitus to manipulate some more entities onto their side. Realitus complied with his leader’s demands and set to work expanding his following. Perhaps, Paradoxus and Logixel would be brought back into the Council later when Conceptilum was more willing to listen to him.

Unthil found himself embedded within a strange realm of nothing but pure incoherent bunkum and balderdash. The verses surrounding him were very vibrant and possessed exotic structures that no stable verse within Beyond could reasonably hold. Many of the verses that did look familiar greatly resembled that of Imaginatim’s monocosms and omniverses. Quickly, he came to the conclusion that somehow he was resurrected into Imaginatim and now he was, in a sense, bound to her. He didn’t know how this could have happened—had Imaginatim found and tampered with his devices after Realitus had sent her away? If so, what in Beyond did Imaginatim actually do to his devices in order for Unthil to have been revived into her? Unthil wondered if he now had access to Imaginatim’s memories from within but quickly shot down any of his ideas of checking her memories since Imaginatim was bound to have either forgotten what happened or severely changed her own memories to the point that it would be practically impossible to figure out what was the original event from any given memory. Unthil now wondered how he could possibly explain what happened to him to his brothers. As he did, Unthil suddenly received a vision of the possessed Conceptilum destroying many of Beyond’s monocosms. Realitus was present too and he seemed to be arranging his sister’s creations in a way that allowed for the false leader to destroy them. Brilliant. Kotoblade is already starting to destroy monocosms in their home bubble, Realitus was not only still being profoundly self-centred but apparently was so dumb that he could not recognize that his father was possessed, and there was nothing he or Conceptilum could do to ensure Beyond’s stability. It sure was great that his first act as the new acting leader of the SuperGods was to die immediately after he became leader and then get trapped in the mind of the most confusing SuperGod in existence. Beyond’s stability surely won’t last now. Unthil figured it was probably hopeless to attempt to communicate with his brothers and began to explore Imaginatim’s mind-realm. Of course, nothing in it made sense at all to him and it was essentially entering a wholly different plane of existence from his familiar Beyond bubble. The place was filled to the brim with “pets” and “imaginary friends”—few of which even vaguely resembled any god, mortal, or even the few surviving creatures of the Transcendent ecosystem. One odd thing Unthil noticed was the persistent presence of what seemed to be Elder’s fire wherever he traveled. On further inspection, the fire seemed fully unable to hurt Unthil much unlike the fires that could, in reality, completely assimilate SuperGods and destroy small Beyond bubbles. Unthil tried his best to investigate the fires but he soon sensed the nearby presence of Realitus. Considering that the younger SuperGod was presumably very distant from the whereabouts of Imaginatim and her brothers, Realitus’ presence was quite odd. Sure enough, the younger SuperGod did show up to greet Unthil. However, unlike the Realitus Unthil knew all too well, the younger SuperGod was very polite to Unthil and very courteously asked if the SuperGod was lost and in need of assistance. Unthil, realizing that this was just Imaginatim’s perception of her brother and was clearly very curious as to how Imaginatim perceived the rest of the Council, did not respond as he was too mystified to communicate. Realitus jovially offered to guide Unthil back to his home—“Beyond” and then noted that Imaginatim would love to have a new pet. Unthil, still profoundly confused about what was even going on, took imaginary Realitus’s offer to guide him to “Beyond” and followed him so he could meet Imaginatim, curious as to what would even happen. It would probably be great to know how the imaginary Council ran things here.

Chapter One (B)

After the pair travelled to a nearby object Unthil assumed was supposed to be a monocosm, imaginary Realitus proceeded to spontaneously shed off a smaller clone of himself. The clone gave its salutations to the larger version of itself, then to Unthil, and then proceeded to launch itself far away from the pair and explode into a hundred million and five tiny Realiti which dispersed into the surroundings. Imaginary Realitus told Unthil not to worry about the “godsmoke signal”, it was just standard process to call “new best friends” that way. Unthil wasn’t particularly amused that the imaginary Realitus had not given so much as a warning before having done that. Unthil watched as a living lodeverse composed entirely out of eyeballs from all the species throughout Beyond that had any, a sentient tachyonic hyperboloid that really enjoyed making counterclockwise quarter-turns, and a rather large but otherwise completely ordinary pigeon were alerted to the godsmoke signal and made their way over to the SuperGods. Unthil thought those three entities honestly seemed much tamer than what he'd normally expect by ridiculous Imaginatim imaginary friend standards. Now that Imaginary Realitus had caught the creatures’ attention and assured to Unthil that they were completely benign—that’s why they were the perfect pets and best friends, he announced to “Seesee”, “Iiye-all”, and “Really Big Dinosaur (no relation)” that a new friend will be joining them on their journey to Imaginatim's House. Unthil noticed Realitus trying to give a cue that he assumed was supposed to prompt him to introduce himself. Imaginary Realitus and his band of wacky new pets for Imaginatim gave “Uhhh… i-I” a big welcome ceremony complete with cheesecake and confetti—none of which Uhhh… i-I definitely felt like using to double check if that presence of Elder’s fire everywhere was indeed completely unable to destroy materials. After the celebration was over, Realitus politely requested for his fellow beings to follow him. Uhhh… i-I gave up on even trying to bother but at least following this imaginary Realitus on a journey that was presumably going to get rather irritating and tedious very quickly seemed significantly more preferable an existence than having to deal with the real deal Realitus.

The journey to Beyond was exactly as tedious and irritating as Unthil had imagined to be, riddled with having to put up with Realitus constantly babbling on about all the omniverses he had created to try and help make the trek feel shorter as well as Really Big Dinosaur (still no relation) repeatedly mistaking Unthil for “strawberry-flavoured birdseed” and attempting to eat him several times. Realitus had profusely apologized for those incidents and asked if Unthil would appreciate it if he was allowed any chances for him to fail attempting to eat “rotisserie pigeon” just to even the conflict out. Unthil, wondering why that would even be an idea that could cross anyone’s mind, feigned appreciating any offers as he declined every single one of them until the group finally arrived at Imaginary Beyond. Unthil tried his best to hide his amazement at this Realitus’ attitude and briefly wondered if the other Council members were as improved as this Realitus. Unthil noticed an imaginary version of Conceptilum. Imaginary Conceptilum hobbled over to Realitus and talked complete unintelligible nonsense. Imaginary Realitus, acting as if he understood all that, responded that verse creation is indeed going by quite smoothly before proceeding to create a very strange looking and intricately designed omniverse on the spot. This impressed the Council leader so much that he did a “Happy Dance” and rocketed away from Realitus and Unthil with joy. Unthil figured that he got all the answers he would ever need. Realitus stated that Conceptilum has allowed for everyone to get a free “Official Council Rrecess” where everyone can feel free to run around doing whatever they wanted until it was feeding time for all pets. Unthil figured that it was probably best to just take advantage of the “Official Council Rrecess”, not only have literally any kind of break from all that stupid nonsense he had just been put through but to seize any appropriate window of opportunity where he could be able to investigate his surroundings while in this Elder-forsaken position.

Unthil, still with imaginary Conceptilum burned into his omniscient^3 mind, left Realitus and the dispersing group of Imaginatim’s newest pets and tried his best to rest at the nearest monocosm within this Beyond that looked even the slightest bit comfortable to be nearby. It had way too many ants being continuously produced and burned by the giant magnifying glass for his liking but imaginary Realitus had explicitly told Unthil that a certain rather large avian was allergic to eating magnifying glasses so this monocosm seemed better than nothing at preventing him from being annoyingly pecked every now and then. Unfortunately, Unthil was quick to become rather annoyed anyway when he noticed another SuperGod approach him, get very angry, throw a chicken at him, and then proceed to call him a “poopooface that smells like bumbum and likes smelling the bumbums for the bumbum smell”. Unthil, really not in the mood to entertain the very idea that this absolute idiot’s pet aynysys witlessly spewing out complete wastes of hatchling insults unprovoked was honestly supposed to be a version of him, was quick to speak up and sharply tell his lookalike to go run away to some other Beyond bubble to bother literally anyone else and while he was at that, figure how to insult them better. Honestly, Unthil got that giving others emotions that aren't strictly positive should be part of that whole process of speaking one's mind but for SuperGod’s sake, he can assure that more clever and more creative ways of accomplishing that do, believe it or not, exist and would lead to anything other than instilling the worst second-hand embarrassment imaginable to unsuspecting innocent victims. Clearly the imaginary being must have picked up on the extent of Unthil’s sheer pain from having to listened to that so it proceeded to double down, throw a few more chickens for good measure, and call Unthil “a heckship turtlelizard omniverse ultraverse multiverse heckheckheck!!!1!11!!”. Unthil, now completely fed up and on top of that, extremely confused about what part of that vyrbal dhyarria was even supposed to be the insulting part, decided that this was a big waste of metatime and wanted to find some other monocosm to rest nearby before that “Official Council Rrecess” of unspecified length was done and over with. A very exhausted Unthil wasn't the most careful with moving from his resting spot though and accidentally shattered the magnifying glass in the process of doing so. Forty-five of the shattered magnifying glass bits being scalene simplices with cells that suddenly transformed into Brachiosaurus altithorax playing mandolins completely set off the imaginary entity and made it absolutely furious, so it summoned a rapid-fire barrage of chicken to shoot at its slightly less imaginary counterpart. This didn’t actually injure Unthil in any meaningful way whatsoever but it sure was really annoying and just impossible to think straight at all while under this "attack". Unthil suddenly sensed contact with one of the godverses the monocosm held and observed as his surroundings promptly started to fade away afterwards. The piercing shrieks of his imaginary counterpart and the brilliant blue of the surrounding fires blurred until the omniscient^3 SuperGod was unable to resolve any discernible details. Unthil’s pure annoyance in the moment became overshadowed by his concern about just what kind of amazing vision from his oh-so-fantastic "gift" he definitely needed to experience now if it absolutely had to be timed this perfectly.

Imaginatim had just forgot what she had been doing again but whatever that task was, it must have been rather fun because now there was one ginormous omniverse composed entirely out of cat food in the monocosm now! It didn’t smell or taste particularly nice—Imaginatim much preferred precat food with a side of fresh magma and could do without the need for the flavours of clear identity or associating anything—but her many new pets inhabiting the omniverse seemed to really enjoy gobbling up all that cat food and pet mortals having lots of fun consuming all the limitless quantities of cat food they could ever dream of was all that would ever matter in the end. After allowing her oldest brother’s pets in the monocosm currently being eggsat to hold on to her very intricately thought-through and very detailed plans for an omniversal structure made entirely out of lemons she had just thought of (just in case she forgot them later, lemons were something hopefully substantially tastier than cat food and one tasty great fruit-flavoured idea like that should never go to waste), Imaginatim noticed a nearby monocosm that really did hold an omniverse made entirely out of lemons! It must have been something she had created long, long ago before the formation of her omniverse made of cat food! Yay!

Upon a closer inspection after abandoning her consumable categorical creation, it turned out that lemony-looking lodeverse was actually mostly made of grapefruit constituents and byproducts and not lemons like she had hoped. Oh. Aw. Well, this surely ought to be delicious enough though, the fruits were only both citrus. Imaginatim swiftly emptied the grapefruit omniverse of most of its inhabitants into the nearby Destroyer godverse and proceeded to munch away at the ?-verse. Unfortunately, the grapefruit omniverse ended up tasting way worse than the cat food. *gwalllchhh*! Immediately after that attempt to absorb the -verse for its nutrients, Imaginatim spat out what she had bit into and then proceeded to toss the rest of the half-eaten omniverse into the Creator's godverse. The ?-verses upon colliding with each other formed a beautiful albeit very violent explosion that no one would want to miss for the Transcendentem, but Creator fell fast asleep during the wonderful phireworks display and unfortunately missed all of that which was so, so sad. Well, since nobody goes sad, Imaginatim felt it was best to recreate that godverse and grapefruit omniverse and after Creator wakes up from their nap, they would get the chance to observe that beautiful fractally crossover event as a surprise! Then, everything will be lovely and then everyone will be happy again! Hooray! That was quite the lengthy plan to remember though so Imaginatim figured it was best for the Destroyer, who had just gotten around to playing a game of tag with his newest friends, to hold on to those thoughts while she went off to borrow one of Realitus’s omniverses in order to serve as a guide for the formation of a brand-new grapefruit-shaped omniverse. And this new attempt of hers really ought to involve a much tastier variant of grapefruit though, Imaginatim was interested in learning how to better her craftsgodship until it was super good and to create great grapefruit would surely be a step in the right direction.

Imaginatim got distracted along the way by some nearby funny creatures—one of which was a real little non-real rotating exciting excited hyperliminal hyperboloid—but she did eventually arrive at a monocosm holding one of Realitus’s omniverses. The omniverse was very nice looking and felt rather squishy and soft to the feel. Realitus must have been very happy after the creation of this passion project, as he always was after his finishing touches. Observing all of those finishing touches happened a lot, enough for Imaginatim to know it happened so often as Realitus was very skilled at creating his -verses much faster than Imaginatim's much slower pace. After playing with the omniverse for a while and giving it a quick taste test, Imaginatim realized that she wasn’t quite sure about Realitus’s happiness level for this omniverse in particular—it didn't have very many pairs of pear-flavoured paraverses to have fun preparing, tearing, and repairing! Imaginatim figured it probably wouldn’t hurt to ask Realitus, especially considering that he was now rushing towards her and repeatedly calling her name. Wow! It sure was great that Realitus was careening through Beyond towards her so quickly, this would mean finding out about what her best friend and most caring brother’s happy levels were much sooner than expected. Hooray! She couldn’t wait to find out about the level of Realitus’s happy!

Unthil tried to allow the anticipated fogginess of his mind to clear from whatever stupid vision he had just experienced. However, besides the harsh reminder that his even stupider younger brother exists at all—truly no meticulously crafted scale from anyone living or dead in the entirety of Transcendentem could ever accurately measure the immense amount of suffering and agony from the slightest thought of that—his experience hadn’t felt particularly painful by vision-with-omniscient^3-origin standards at all. Clearly Unthil must have been so distracted by his sheer annoyance and bitter contempt that he forgot to be grateful. Not just for how relatively painless his vision was, but also for how that excuse of an imaginary counterpart had thankfully gone away. That or the nearby presence of two SuperGods in its place did a poor job at easing any worry or unsettledness.

Imaginary Logixel asked Unthil if anything was the matter, as Unthil just looked like the saddest little poor thing he’d ever seen in his life and of course, it wasn’t a particularly good idea for anything or anyone to go in that general direction. Luckily, Logixel had brought lots and lots of lollipops to prevent anyone or anything from going sad. Lollipops were, of course, always the optimal candy to prevent anyone from going sad since they always make everyone go happy. Why, if someone was just totally unable to go happy from lollipops, Logixel wouldn’t know what to do! Clearly, as the Imaginary Paradoxus nearby reasoned, a pat on the back would have to accompany that lollipop for terminal happyward velocity and proceeded to demonstrate this to Logixel with Unthil as an example. Imaginary Paradoxus probably wasn’t particularly aware of his own strength though and that so-called “pat on the back” immediately sent Unthil flying hypersky high straight into the Cotton Candy Clouds of Destiny. This would have made Logixel pretty sad as a potential new friend of his to cheer up had now gone away and disappeared without any warning but luckily for his sake, Logixel had brought lollipops so really everything was fine, actually.

Unthil’s mood, despite having just achieved terminal happyward velocity and having safely landed in the Cotton Candy Clouds of Destiny, had not been particularly improved. As it shouldn’t be, getting whacked in the supergoddamned face and careened into the clouds would do an absolutely abysmal job at improving anyone’s mood unless they were some sort of completely miserable masochist. Unthil looked down on his brothers from his high point of view, observing those two idiots incapable of understanding even a fraction of anything he ever had to put up with happening to babble about dumb incoherent nonsense that would be completely incapable of helping anyone. In what Beyond Bubble would some pat on the back and a lollipop would honestly be able to solve real issues that SuperGods would actually have to go through? Oh yeah, sure, Unthil could probably pointlessly break his own mind to check for some obscure backnaughter one in a parallel Transcendentem that somehow hasn’t collapsed in on itself where that’s totally the case—that sounds about like the kind of suggestion he’d expect them to propose—but why? That’s stupid, they’re stupid, everyone is stupid, and Unthil was especially stupid for even entertaining that idea for them at all. But at least Unthil came to terms with that stupidity long ago, he’s the only one to have realized and accepted that the Council was just doomed from the start from how idiotic all its members are and quite frankly, he’s plain shocked that literally anybody else was still able to genuinely care so much about its miserable state.

If Unthil had bothered to remember to be grateful for anything now, it was to be grateful that he even got this absolutely fantastic opportunity to live in this fantasy world of someone painfully dumb enough to be this divorced from reality, it gave him the chance to truly grasp how amazing living a life like this must be—stupid enough to not care about anything or anyone, but with actual contentment to go alongside that. As pathetic as living some perpetually blissfully ignorant life would be, at least there would be no constant frustration or shame or disappointment to hide since it just wouldn’t be there in the first place. Unthil found it unfortunate that he needed to settle for the next best thing of accepting and reminding how much everything and everyone sucks throughout his life but at this point, he's leaned into that far enough for there to just be no chance for anyone to accept any effort put towards a course-correction so he won't bother.

Perhaps that “pat on the back” from Imaginary Paradoxus totally worked and had indeed made Unthil happier, now he could gladly say to himself that he was happy for Imaginatim that she was fortunate to hold a gift better than Unthil’s complete excuse for one ever was. And since that said excuse for a “gift” of his held all sorts of risks that would lead to ruining hers should he dawdle around in here for too long, Unthil ought to get to work on figuring out how to escape Imaginatim’s mind, go and off Kotoblade from within his father’s mind, and actually be over with this rotten headache-inducing nonsense. And he’ll do it all by himself too—the sooner everything is all done and dealt with, the better. Unthil didn’t want any chances of Paradoxus or Logixel and especially Realitus ruining anything by confronting him and presenting stupid questions and their terrible ideas from being in over their heads—they'll never understand anything about him, they’ve already got enough out of him, and Unthil was not willing to go through any more of that hurt again. If they're going to spend any more chances of attempting to get anything out of him, Unthil hoped for their sake that they’d better give up on trying real quickly because he will never ever care about whatever their input would be and there will be nothing those supergoddamned idiots would ever do that would get him to say any more.

Unthil briefly checked down below for any imaginary SuperGods or pets that might fly up and bother him. His imaginary brothers had gone and left and no pets were roaming around, Rrecess might be over and it was probably feeding time. He then surveyed the Cotton Candy Clouds of Destiny in case there were any annoying cloud creatures. No cloud creatures were nearby, but Unthil did notice a small godverse lightly coated in cotton candy a short distance away from him. Unthil carefully waded through the cotton candy and the surrounding Elder’s fire as he approached the godverse. Unthil braced himself, tried his best to calm himself down, and hoped he was right about what the -verse was supposed to be before his decision to pick it up.

The Twins

Onu and Dei, collectively known as "The Twins", are two SuperGod siblings with a very strong bond to each other that allows them to always know each other's feelings, location, and health even when they are parted significantly. This ability is known as "Mind Link". The Twins lived in a small Beyond bubble called "Anarchaon" that is very chaotic and self-destructive in nature and often separated the two, but their powers will always allow them to reunite so long as neither of them die.

Onu is very focused on the survival and well-being of himself and his sister and can come across as more hotheaded and rash in spite of how careful he tries to be. Dei prioritizes her well-being significantly less than her brother and is instead more intrigued by the nature of Mind Link. Dei comes across as more content and collected than her brother in spite of how careless and hyper she is. Dei's carelessness and tendency to wander is a point of contention among the two siblings.

Onu

Onu is a SuperGod and Dei's brother. Onu is incredibly focused on the survival of himself and his sister and is paranoid of what might potentially erase the SuperGods from existence. This contrasts with his sister, who is not afraid of "dangerous" entities, does not particularly care about her well-being all that much, and is more interested about the very nature of Mind Link. Onu sees Mind Link as a very useful asset to monitor his sister’s health and location. He does not care at all about Mind Link’s origins—Onu is just very grateful that he had the ability and takes advantage of it to help protect his sister. But in his opinion, knowing the origins of Mind Link is substantially less useful than making actual use of the ability.

In spite of how careful Onu tries to be in any given situation, he always sustains many injuries from his surroundings and frequently gets attacked by wild organisms from the Transcendent Ecosystem. In one such incident, Onu was swarmed by a large swarm of angry Paxgods who apparently decided that omnipotent^1 alomic entities were not big enough meals for them. Onu does not know why he gets attacked so often or why he often trips when navigating. Onu tries his absolute best to watch his surroundings and to never provoke other entities in order to prevent injuries in the future, but this cautiousness rarely aids him successfully. Because of how often he has to heal himself after getting hurt often, Onu has essentially become a self-taught SuperGod medic. Unfortunately, this expertise came at the cost of any hint of Dei being actually worried over Onu’s health—seeing as he almost always fully repairs himself even after receiving severe injuries that would normally completely incapacitate or kill other SuperGods. Onu resents Dei for somehow very rarely coming into harm in spite of her recklessness and lack of thought when approaching situations. However, he was also secretly glad that Dei never took the abuse he always had to face. Onu still fears that sooner or later, Dei would sustain a severe injury and possibly perish so whenever Dei runs off, Onu always tries to follow her so that he could protect her if he can.

If Onu had his way, the Twins would stay within the confines of their safe home cohort of monocosms, sheltered from the dangers that lay beyond. Similar to his sister, Onu is aware of his twin’s emotions always, even from afar. Onu is not particularly sympathetic towards Dei though and sees her as an idiot with a universe for a brain who invested in silly hobbies that waste valuable metatime. In return, Dei thinks that Onu is overprotective, clingy, and desperately needs to relax.

Onu often complains toward his elderly and incredibly patient neighbour Tris about his sister. It’s possible that Tris had learned to tune out Onu’s complaints so that they did not register, but the experienced SuperGod always maintains his stances and tries to provide the much younger SuperGod with advice that he learned from his experiences. When the advice does not work out for Onu, the young SuperGod would often complain about Tris to Dei for never providing useful advice.
