He or rather 'It' is not even an entity. There's three dimensions ( Hell / Universe / Heaven ), [ Duran ] is in [ Universe ] one of the three dimensions and is geocentric. And there's a dimension beyond the three dimensions, it's named as [ Outer ] dimension. This dimension is indecipherable and it's inhabitants are inexplicable, their knowledge and technology are beyond advanced. Crossing from or to [ Outer ] is fundamentally impossible due to the 'Great Filter' which instantly exterminates [ Outer ] entities while inhabitants from the three dimensions are simply relatively primitive and are unconsciously being influenced by the 'Great Filter', erasing any thoughts of [ Outer ] dimension from surfacing in their minds. However an anomaly suddenly emerged from [ Outer ] and was able to reign supreme but it got bored and challenged the 'Great Filter' in which for the first time in its existence felt the sense of dread, an impending doom, it finally experienced the will to survive. It could no longer turn back as the 'Great Filter''s mechanism for extermination is instantaneous.

But this information is null as «Mesteria» doesn't exist in either of the three dimensions, but instead it's «Akashic Record» whose the one and only true record library that contains all the information. However, this library is a myth, even among the scarce [Absolutes] only a few knew it's name but even them is doubtful of it's existence. [ Duran ] is exponentially expanding, constantly generating new areas, unique life forms inhabitants and materials used for crafting the best equipment. In this world nothing can be called the 'strongest' as someone stronger will always emerge. In one of the many established continents [ Gaia ], 3 empires govern, they are [ Starfall ], [ Ashen ] and [ Avalon ]. We will start our journey in the kingdom of [ Sun ] governed by [ Avalon ]. In the city [ Exalted Clouds ] it borders between [ Avalon ] and [ Starfall ] empire. Located at the top of a collosal mountain range nicknamed 'Heaven's Peak' as this mountain is so high it goes beyond the clouds. it's maximum height is 80 km above sea level but the city is located 40 km below the highest point.
