The War of The Six
The Cosmic Shift
The Forsakening shattered the cosmic balance, and in its wake, the Six Great Forces of the Cosmos—Aether (Holy), Nether (Shadow), Death’s Cycle (Death), The World Tree (Life), The Matron’s Weave (Order), and Oblivion (Disorder)—have all shifted dramatically.
Each force has been weakened, twisted, or unleashed in ways never seen before, turning the multiverse into a battleground of ideologies, survival, and destruction. The great War of the Six is not just a war of armies—it is a war of existence itself.
For the first time in history, the fundamental forces of the cosmos do not move in harmony—they fight, they splinter, and they shift into something new and dangerous.
The Fall of Aether: The Holy Order in Ruin
The Collapse of the Celestial Thrones
The Aether, the force of holy radiance, divinity, and cosmic justice, once held absolute power over the celestial realms. It was the foundation of gods, angels, and the laws that bound the divine to their purpose.
With the First Light gone, the Aether is crumbling.
- The pantheons of old are fractured, many gods having vanished into nothingness.
- The archangels, once unified, have turned against one another, fighting over what remains of their divine thrones.
- The World Tree, Yggdrasil, is dying, severing the last true connection between the divine and the mortal world.
The Battle for Yggdrasil
With the gods unable to maintain their influence, the last beacon of divine energy—the World Tree—has become a battleground.
- Angelic loyalists fight to preserve Yggdrasil, believing it is the key to restoring divine order.
- Celestial warlords, led by Archangel Michael, believe the old gods are weak and unworthy, seeking to seize Yggdrasil's power for themselves.
- Mortal cults and druidic circles are caught in the middle, some wishing to save the tree, others believing it must be burned to make way for a new order.
As Yggdrasil withers, the last remnants of the Aether slip further from existence—and soon, Holy magic itself may disappear.
The Nether Ascendant: The Shadow Unleashed
The Seizure of the Infernal Road
The Nether, the force of shadow, deception, and corruption, has only grown stronger in the Forsakening’s wake.
Where once celestial law restrained the Nether’s influence, now there is nothing stopping it.
- The Infernal Road, once a passage for damned souls, has been twisted into something far worse.
- The Archdevils, led by Asmodeus, have rewritten the rules of damnation, binding souls to their service instead of sentencing them to eternal suffering.
- The Abyssal Lords, jealous of Hell’s power, now fight to corrupt the Road completely, turning it into an endless war of chaos and horror.
Shadow’s Expansion Beyond the Hells
With Aether weakened, the Nether has expanded its influence beyond the Infernal Road, reaching into realms once thought untouchable.
- Corruptions of the Nether have seeped into the Material Plane, turning entire kingdoms into puppet states ruled by unseen demonic masters.
- Divine miracles now fail more often than not, their power eaten away by the influence of the Nether.
- Abyssal rifts open freely, spilling nightmarish horrors into the mortal world, unchallenged by the once-mighty celestial forces.
The Nether no longer fears the divine—it laughs at it.
For the first time in history, the forces of Shadow stand unchallenged.
Death’s Cycle in Chaos: The Forsaken Dead
The River Styx in Ruin
The Cycle of Death, once an unbreakable force of judgment, is now a broken system of suffering and uncertainty.
- The River Styx, which once carried souls to their rightful afterlives, now wanders aimlessly, its course unpredictable.
- Some souls never find rest, left to wander the realms as lost echoes, while others are devoured by Oblivion itself, their existence erased.
- The Reapers, those who once ensured the natural order of death, are divided—some still try to reclaim the balance, while others have fallen into despair, abandoning their duty.
The Rise of the Forgotten Dead
With the Cycle of Death broken, strange new undead have begun to appear.
- Some dead rise again without guidance or purpose, no longer bound to any divine judgment.
- Others have become Forsaken Phantoms, souls too warped by the Forsakening to exist properly, caught between life and nothingness.
- Liches, vampires, and necromantic warlords have begun carving out new empires, declaring that if the gods will no longer control the fate of souls, then they will.
There is no peace beyond death anymore—only uncertainty, and the growing fear that soon, death will mean nothing at all.
The World Tree withers: Life’s Struggle for Survival
The Dying Pulse of Creation
The World Tree, which once channeled the energy of life throughout the cosmos, is collapsing.
- Without the First Light, the roots of the Tree are rotting, causing natural disasters, failing crops, and plagues to sweep across the world.
- Druids and spirits of nature have fallen into despair, unable to stop the decay.
- Beings of pure life energy—such as unicorns, celestials, and elementals—are vanishing, their forms unable to sustain themselves.
The War for Renewal
Despite the decay, some factions fight to preserve life in a dying world.
- The Verdant Order, a coalition of druids, clerics, and scholars, seeks to rekindle the World Tree’s life force.
- The Warlords of Decay believe nature must be reforged, not preserved, calling for the destruction of the weak to make way for something new.
- The Hollowborn, beings born without souls, argue that life no longer needs the divine—that the cycle itself must be abandoned.
The World Tree is the last pulse of life in a dying cosmos—and if it fails, so too may all living things.
The Weave Unraveling: The Collapse of Order
The Weave Scars Spread
The Matron’s Weave, once the foundation of magic, structure, and order, is now fraying beyond repair.
- Spells are unreliable, their effects wild, unstable, or nonexistent.
- Time itself has begun to break, with regions experiencing moments of temporal collapse.
- Whole realities have begun to unravel, their very laws of existence dissolving.
The Last Weavers
Some still fight to mend what was broken.
- The Keepers of the Thread, an ancient order of mages, seek to reconstruct the Weave, piece by piece.
- Others believe the Weave should be abandoned, claiming that a new order must be created, not rebuilt.
- The Forsworn Prophets, radical scholars, claim that the Weave was a flawed construct to begin with, and that true order is found only in destruction.
If the Weave fails completely, existence itself will no longer be structured, and chaos will reign.
The Hunger of Oblivion: The Expansion of Disorder
Oblivion is winning.
- The Spiral of Oblivion continues to consume everything, devouring entire realities without resistance.
- Some believe Oblivion is not just a force, but an intelligence, waiting for the last light to go out.
- Those who stare too long into the void return… changed, speaking of a new reality beyond existence itself.
If nothing stops the Spiral, it will erase everything.
