"Unless they feel like it, of course. How many Tiers of Void Entity are there and can they move back and forth between them? And Why are the Void Entities fighting? What are the Edge and the Churn?"

[LuckyKobold]

"Where is our Bubble Located and how did the Multiverse begin?"

[Rolepgeek]

Fusil, you're being sensible at the moment, so I'll ask you a question about the Void I've been wondering about, since this is a subject you probably do have a fairly damned good understanding of, at least as much as can be had from the Books. If the Void only gets power when the Gods give it power, where do Void cults and worshippers come in? Don't they spread Void Influence as well?

And does anyone else find it incredibly odd that the Divine Library works at all, considering how difficult it would be to even communicate with another Bubble, yet we were able to obtain books from many different ones, including ones detailing the destruction of their or another Bubble(somehow, still not sure how that works), at comparatively low cost?

[Stirk]

"Unless they feel like it, of course. How many Tiers of Void Entity are there and can they move back and forth between them? And Why are the Void Entities fighting? What are the Edge and the Churn?"

"Five tiers, based on age and caste thus impossible to change. The Highest is the Hadal, the leaders of the three factions. Only three of them. Next is the Abyssal, who there are two of, with the weakest faction not having any. Bathyal is next, and much more numerous. The last two are Mesal and Epial, who make the most contact with Gods (such as Cim, likely) and are often the least involved in the Faction War. They are fighting because they hate each other, obviously. You don't really have to concern yourself with the Edge or Churn, just don't touch them and you will be fine."

"Where is our Bubble Located and how did the Multiverse begin?"

"Why the sudden bout of curiosity? Anyway, since space is moving around the Bubble, it is difficult saying where we are located. And it isn't like it matters. The multiverse seems to start as a single point, I have heard and made several theories about how it was created but none really sound legitimate as of right now. Besides, outside the bubble, things like 'created' are difficult to find, if nothing else time and causality are mixed up enough that it is nearly impossible to tell what made it."

"I have reason to believe the Void Followers where only able to become Void Cultists because of Serac's stupid mistake of making a temple. Yes, Null can speak with, make deals with, and otherwise gain power and influence over the bubble, but it is insignificant compared to what we do and was likely caused by us as well. Unless the Null are passing us, it is difficult for even Gods to hear what the Null are saying, let alone Mortals. Serac's temple acted as a radio tower, allowing non-Emissary type Ones to talk to Mortals clear enough to start cults. There is no evidence of cults before Serac's action."

"Not at all."

[IcyTea31]

"How many Tiers of Void Entity are there?"

"Five. From highest to lowest: Hadal, Abyssal, Bathyal, Mesal, Epial."

"can they move back and forth between them?"

"Only up as they age and gain power, to my knowledge."

"Why are the Void Entities fighting?"

"For the same reasons as we do, personal schisms. For the factions, they aren't exactly fighting. The Luminants want to find the Umbrals, who are hiding, while the Liminals try to keep a balance between the two other factions."

"What are the Edge and the Churn?"

"The Edge is the border between a Bubble and the Void, a barrier extremely hard to cross without divine power. The Churn is the primordial entropy in the broken spacetime of the Void. Without a carefully planned course, collisions with energies quickly cause destructive paradoxes to anything in it."

"Where is our Bubble Located and how did the Multiverse begin?"

"Our Bubble is somewhere in the Void. That's as much as I know for these questions."

If the Void only gets power when the Gods give it power, where do Void cults and worshippers come in? Don't they spread Void Influence as well?

"It seems to me any sapient being can give influence to the Null. Gods are worth more to them, but they will gladly take mortal cultists."

"Assuming there are nearly infinite Bubbles out there, it is quite likely some of their ideas would, by chance, survive the Churn to find their ways to us. Or perhaps, less likely, they were written by the Null themselves to deceive us, or a mortal with a knack for fiction. Maybe there is a Null of Knowledge literally made out of books on all subjects."

[LuckyKobold]

"Oh Just an existential crisis. How old are they and which is the strongest Faction?"

[IcyTea31]

"Much, much older than any of us. The Luminants seem the weakest, but I can't say whether the Liminals or the Umbrals are more powerful, as the Umbrals hide themselves well."

[LuckyKobold]

"How Much Older?"

[IcyTea31]

"I honestly have no idea. They are very, very old."

[Stirk]

"Oh Just an existential crisis. How old are they and which is the strongest Faction?"

"Umbrals are the strongest, on average, and time is meaningless outside the Bubble. Probably several eternities, on a random guess."

"There is a Null of Knowledge, though the way the Void works means it is unlikely that they think of it the same way we do, making your theory unlikely."

"What if their was an entire Mutltiverse of Multiverses with incomprehensible beings moving in between them, And that would be less than an Atom in the grand scheme of things!"

KI'Tork starts zoning out.

"Ah well, Time to cook!"

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It came from somewhere beyond the farthest reaches of the world that we know, like a creature of shadow
It came to mock us, for we are so naive that we can't comprehend it,
And truly, we are fragile and small
I cannot hold onto the truth
As it slips right through my fingers like a picture that is made of smoke
I don't know how I will last, because my body is so weak that I may crumble away

Uninstall, uninstall
I was told that I am just a single speck of dust
And cannot be more
But I do not understand or grasp the true meaning
Uninstall, uninstall
I no longer have a choice but to pretend
I am brave
For a soldier has to be brave
Uninstall

Our unseen thoughts have been growing ever sharper, unbeknownst to us, deep within the subconscious
But an incling of what has been occuring is revealed to me as
I hear the restless monsters when I sleep
Now my heart is empty and numb
Save for an unrelenting impulse to destroy all things that I can see
It is born from all of the pain, for I have lost the will to choose the day I'll crumble away

Uninstall, uninstall
If there's noone who can take this burden in my place
Then there's no choice
But to take my simple life and
Uninstall, uninstall
And it makes me want to end it all with my own hands
Is it wrong?
Surely it's alright to want to uninstall.

Uninstall, uninstall
I was told that I am just a single speck of dust
And cannot be more
But I do not understand or grasp the true meaning
Uninstall, uninstall
I no longer have a choice but to pretend
I am brave
For a soldier has to be brave
Uninstall

"If we were to kill everyone so that everyone reincarnates at once, would they theoretically have no knowledge of the Void so long as they don't come into contact with Void material? Babies don't have inherent knowledge of the Void, do they?"

"If we were to kill everyone so that everyone reincarnates at once, would they theoretically have no knowledge of the Void so long as they don't come into contact with Void material? Babies don't have inherent knowledge of the Void, do they?"

We could try an experiment. Lets annihilate all of your creations and find out.

[Andres]

"That wasn't a suggestion that we do so, it was just an idea. If you harm my followers I will kill you."
