Hello, traveler. Did not expect a visit so soon.
Come, sit down. Make yourself comfortable.I bet you have experienced a lot of horrors to get here. It's alright now. You are in my territory. Those things won't come near.
My name, you ask? You may call me The Beholder. I'm the one who observes the narrative progression of events.
This place, you ask? Ah, it's my own plane that I created. I like to call it White Board, in reference to a white canvas. From here I can watch or read the evens unfolding like a story.
I've come to understand a lot of things in my stay here. Concepts that the conventional mind can only wonder. Despite this, it does not mean I know all things. Just because someone reads a book it doesn't mean that they will be able to capture all of its meanings and sub-meanings.
Regardless though, I suppose I can enlighten you on what I do know.
The Lost World. A world from the first iteration of creation that has already been lost through the threads of history. It was a home for humans who practiced sorcery and magic when technology had yet to exist, but also the place from where youkais manifested themselves from human negativity.
The Universe. A term for an infinite space-time that consists of four dimensions. Length, width, height, and time. But differently from the first three, Time is a continuous progression of eventuality, of which even the tiniest fraction already encapsulates infinite tri-dimensional forms.
The Multiverse. A term for a space beyond space that encompasses multiple universes. Each universe is separated by a higher-dimensional void, in which all universes are embedded. To reach another universe via tridimensional movement is impossible. It is usually connected to what most call Material Substrate. But this is quite misleading, as the latter is more than just a multiverse.
Material Substrate. A made-up term to refer to the multiverse that most species are familiar with. The Material Substrate is said to contain an incomprehensibly large amount of universes. But this is only as far as conventional studies go. In truth, the Material Substrate is infinite, and much more. For every thought conceptualized at any instant, an infinity of universes is brought forth. Every decision and sub-atomic events raise a brand new space-time, and every thought and quantum instant within that space-time in turn raises an infinity more. But even all of this is still an understatement, for the Material Substrate contains not only every possible world already manifested but all that can be manifested through thoughts, already realized. Indeed...if you think even for a moment in your mind, about a giant canine with three heads that spits fire from its mouth, you can bet there is a universe out there in which that creature actually exists and is commonplace. Any thought, no matter how complex or nonsensical, is already realized as an alternate reality out there (though there are certain exceptions to this rule). Many intellectual species tied the principles of the Material Substrate to a boundless wholeness that encapsulates all stories, propositions, and theories.
Exosphere. A name made by Venus Hekantoreis Vanaheimr to refer to the realm she herself created to serve as a home for her species. This is a multiverse of its own, and in fact, larger than even the Material Substrate could ever be. This is because the Exosphere not only has the same potential as the Substrate, but also contains every non-thought and the illogical manifested as realized realities. Many laws and principles created by Venus govern and keep this place in order, and many characteristics of the Exosphere share the same traits as hers.
Femto Realm. A hidden world, situated outside time and space. Also called Microspace, it can be accessed only by things or entities of sub-quantic size. A certain species became what we know as "The Hex Pattern" after unintentionally entering this realm in an attempt of escaping from a Big Crunch event.

Tao. A primordial essence that is said to exist before what exists and it's the beginning before the beginning. It's everything and anything, but also the nothing and the in-between. It is said to permeate through all of creation, and to grasp it is to grasp divinity.
I believe there are still more things left unanswered, but I'm afraid this is as far as my knowledge goes.
Ah, would you look at that...Chatting with you here made lose the notion of time for a bit, even though time does not exist here.
Your existence is starting to fade...it means your stay here is almost over. Perhaps we'll meet again, perhaps not.
Until next time, then.
