A phantasm of a metaphor made real, an allegory based upon principles of the dynamics of ontology itself. It leaves behind a barely-real whisper to mark its path.

There’s about a million different creation mythos that we can go into, so I'll keep this one simple.

Once before a time, there was a long unending quiet.

I will not get into the specifics—just know that this quiet was inevitable. It prefigured all and it is what all will come back to in due time.

And please, always remember: this is an allegory.

*Ahem* anyway: eventually, a whisper, a euphony came into existence. Whether the whisper was the long quiet itself or something else that came out of it is irrelevant currently.

Either way, that whisper moved across that unending quiet and ‘pointed’ to a section. It said:

"This section will be an infinite world that will extend into an infinite number of dimensions. This will be the physical world"

“These infinite dimensions will harbor any and all; this is where the 'simple' will live."

Then, it looked to the ‘right’ of the physical world and said:

"This will be an ascended plane of existence, mirroring the physical world; this will be a world build upon conscience, objective truths/axioms, and beings beyond simple comprehension"

This world resembles a tower. A tower with a beyond infinite amount of floors, each floor sharing its own axioms, and each subsequent floor unequivocally surpassing the previous. These floors will be like fluid, not set in stone.

It is known that the whisper said SOMETHING to this beyond infinite tower, but the specifics is not recorded here.

Finally, the whisper created a network of strings.

These strings exist in ‘the weave’, they connect all living minds and concepts together.

Then the whisper went quiet. For the quiet is all there can and will be.





What to expect?

I can be nothing other than what I am



Updates:

Honestly, it’s hard to say. I’m pretty busy right now since I’m in my senior year of high school. I’m also a perfectionist, so each chapter I write goes through extensive rewrites and edits (some more than others). All I can say is that a new chapter will come out every few weeks or so.

Don’t expect this story to be 1,500 chapters, though. I’m not looking to write it over the course of 9 years at the pace I work.
