Established Pinnacle: The Enigma



An Age.

This was a distinct period of time. Or so everyone thought as such, for the average definition of the term itself.

But for beings on the path of power, especially those from the third League and above, an Age was something different altogether.

An Age usually implies a considerable extent of time, especially one associated with a dominant personality, influence, characteristic, or institution.

The Age of Ragnarok for example.

This was an extended period of time, with the dominant personality of "Doom of the Gods". It's influence was to spread the idea of eliminating all the "Gods", and its characteristics was literally to bring calamity onto the "Gods".

This was an Age.

It had its own purpose, and definition.

But most importantly, there could be plenty of such Ages, collinear to one another on the same path, as they created a pattern that took one from a certain beginning, to a certain end.

For example, there was;

THE AGE OF INFINITY – An Age that brought a beginning to this current Era. An Age that made it possible for an infinite number of Universes to inhibit a Multiverse. For an infinite number of Multiverses to inhibit a Hyperverse. For there to be an infinite number of Hyperverses. An infinite number of Cosmos. An infinite number of Realities. An infinite number of Realms. An infinite number of Chaos. An infinite number of Creators. And an infinite number of possibilities.

THE SUPPRESSED AGE – An Age responsible for the suppression of Creations, limiting the possibility of an infinite number of Creations/Existences being born.

THE BROKEN AGE – An Age responsible for breaking through the many Established Rules, that allowed Existence to flow. With these broken, anything was made possible. An infinite number of Creators, omnipotent beings, could exist within the same platform and not destroy the very balance of nature itself.

THE AGE OF DARKNESS – An Age that brought darkness onto Existence as a whole. A side effect to breaking through the Established Rules, and the birth of the Eldritch Horrors.

THE SUPREME AGE – An Age where Supremes were born. The current second generational Ancients, the direct descendants of the first generational Ancients, also became Supreme during this Age. The Prosecutor of Purgatory, the Abyssal Monarch, the Twins of Gloom and Radiance, the Heavenly Lord, and many more, from the other Greater Worlds as well. A total of one hundred and eight Supremes were born in this Age alone.

THE ENDLESS AGE – An Age that brought about enigmatic evolutions of the Greater Worlds, forcefully expanding them to become Endless in size and density. So much so that, not even the entirety of Existence, could weigh down onto a single Greater World.

THE AGE OF PROSPERITY – An Age that brought a season of prosperity onto all infinite living beings. Civilizations were born, Factions were established, Pantheons were created, Realms stabilized, families bloomed, lives blossomed, and worlds evolved. An Age that was prosperous throughout the whole Era.

THE AGE OF PEACE – An Age that followed after Prosperity, bringing peace and joy onto all living beings. Peace between all the infinite constructs. Peace between all the nine Endless Greater Worlds. Peace between the Supremes. Peace between Existence itself. Absolute, and utter, Peace.

And finally, the AGE OF RAGNAROK – An Age that will bring about an end towards the reign of this Era. Responsible for the accumulation of enough "Doom", by killing Gods left, right, and center, to bring the closure of this chapter of an Era. This was Ragnarok, the storm, after the calm.

These were Ages.

And all these Ages, were all accumulated into a single period of time termed as an... Era. A period of time characterized by a special disposition, that ushered in the beginning of a new chapter in Existence.

These Ages, all fell under the INFINITE ERA.

An Era that began the path of Infinity, where beings could establish Infinity, transcend it, then transcend themselves over and over again.

An Era where certain deities transcended Infinity. An Era where there were an infinite number of deities to boot.

An Era that brought a complete rise of the Infinite Realms, a place where infinite realms, infinite worlds, infinite dimensions, coexist together within one Existential Bubble.

This was the INFINITE ERA.

And it's nine cycles of AGES.

But now, we know of what an ERA and AGE were, so what was an AEON/EON? What was this new abstruse term that Athena and Teach casually played with?

And what was so special about it, that even authority exceeding omnipotence was required to initiate its descent? What was so terrifying about it, that even the World's Will, a Creator Entity, feared its mere descent?

Truly, what was... an AEON?

An Aeon was also a certain extended period of time, that had its own unique definition. For example, if AGES followed a certain cycle extending from a beginning to an end, then ERA were different from one another. Each Era was unique in its own right, so much so that, there was no clear connection between each ERA.

For example, there was;

THE NAMELESS ERA – The Era that depicted the descent of The Ancients, the first ever beings to ever be created, or rather, be born. There were born from Originity, and lived within Originity. Nothingness and Existence came after them.

THE OLDEN ERA – The Era that birthed the Nine Greater Worlds, each separated from Existence. To those here, Existence never existed. Anything created beyond the Nine Greater Worlds, was merely fiction.

THE FORGOTTEN ERA – An Era only written down as a recording. Nobody knew of this Era, not even the second generational Ancients born within the Olden Era. Only the first generational Ancients themselves knew such an Era... never physically existed, but exists within the records of Primordial Time.

And finally, THE INFINITE ERA – An Era that brought upon Infinity onto Existence as a whole. To everything within Existence, except Existence itself. Everything could be infinite, including the number of Creators, but there was only one Existence at this moment.

These were the four ERAS, each being its own book, that was not intricately connected to the other books, yet all books headed towards one direction... forward.

And that, was what connected the four ERAS into something grander. The fact that what occurs within the first ERA, is not ignored within the next ERA, but is just not a major factor for the coming ERAS.

The countless creators created within the Nameless ERA, were still mentioned in the coming ERAS. All ERAS were moving forward under different plots, but ultimately moving along the same line.

This... was an AEON.

An indefinite number of time, that exceeded the understood principles of time, containing various ERAS and their AGES within.

A simple definition would be; An Age was a subplot within a book. An Era which contained multiple Ages, was a complete book. And an Aeon, was a collection of books under different genres, yet falling under the same category.

And with that said, Athena's goal was to change the very structure of the book collection. She was about to flip everything, and start Existence from scratch, start up a new book collection.

New Rules would be established as they move forward. The Realms of power would be shifted, whether downwards, or further upwards, it wasn't known. The hierarchies would be switched upside down.

It was time for a new dawn~

"...Sometimes, I wonder what little Su sees in you. All I see is a crazy bitch hungry for a change." Allen sighed to himself, as he listened to Athena's ambitions, and her goals to changing Existence as a whole.

But what was Existence?

A simple definition would be everything, from mortals, to gods, to Outers, to Supremes, everything recorded, being recorded, and will be recorded, all fell under Existence. Basically, Existence was Totality as a whole... excluding Creators (Creators were individual Totalities by themselves).

"Come now, I am sure he saw my beauty and intellect." Athena chuckled as she responded, still acting coy around Allen. And Teach could only watch them be, as he knew it was none of his business. He was just an independent clone.

"...."

"Well whatever. How much time is left?" Allen inquired, despite the irony of his inquiry.

"For us here, around sixteen days. That's about fifteen years within the Universal flow of time, until enough Transcendentals are able to descend. But for Su Han and the third clone of leader, there's about two days left until they slaughter enough Gods. And as for you... there's about eight hours left." Athena responded.

"Eight hours? You expect me to take down a Supreme God in under eight hours?!" And Allen froze in shock from where stood. Ironic, again.

"Instead of complaining, big brother of three terrifying monsters, why don't you just go already? Not like ajny of your little brothers would let you die a pointless death." Athena rolled her eyes at him.

"...."

And Allen was left speechless.

What was he supposed to do now? Leave everything to Fate, and hope that the True Gods whom were once his younger brothers in a hidden lifetime, would suddenly feel enlightened to come to his rescue?

Yeah, no. Not happening.
