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 ω-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 ω-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.
