Since the dawn of the universe, countless worlds have formed, and with them emerged the first Concepts... primordial ideas that shape reality itself. As life began to spread across these worlds, awareness grew, and with every new mind came new beliefs, thoughts, and interpretations. These beliefs fed the Concepts, causing them to multiply and evolve.Since the dawn of the universe, countless worlds have formed, and with them emerged the first Concepts... primordial ideas that shape reality itself.

Over time, the more people who acknowledged or believed in a Concept, the stronger and more defined that Concept became. Some Concepts like Death, Time, Chaos, Justice, or Love became immensely powerful because nearly all living beings recognized them. Others remained weak, scarcely known or forgotten.Over time, the more people who acknowledged or believed in a Concept, the stronger and more defined that Concept became.

It is said that a person can ascend to become the embodiment of a Concept, but this is not something ordinary individuals can achieve. To become a Concept is to shed one's humanity and adopt the true nature of the idea itself. The transformation demands a sacrifice..., losing something essential, whether it be one's memories, emotions, identity, or even mortality. Only by offering this part of themselves can they align completely with the Concept and take on its power but only if the Concept too acknowledge them as it's vessel..It is said that a person can ascend to become the embodiment of a Concept, but this is not something ordinary individuals can achieve.

Those who succeed do not merely wield the Concept.... they are the Concept. Their strength or weakness reflects the belief that others hold in the idea they embody. A widely recognized and deeply rooted Concept grants immense cosmic authority, while an obscure or fading Concept leaves its vessel fragile and uncertain...Those who succeed do not merely wield the Concept.... they are the Concept.

For thousands of years, from the moment Earth cooled beneath the young sun, only a scarce few among humanity have transcended their mortal limits and risen to become living Concepts. Their transformations were not accidents but rare convergences of belief, sacrifice, and fate—events whispered across centuries as myth more than history.For thousands of years, from the moment Earth cooled beneath the young sun, only a scarce few among humanity have transcended their mortal limits and risen to become living Concepts.

Among all who have ascended, only five achieved true primordial status: Death, Agony, Love, Justice, and Evil. These beings stand apart from every other entity in existence. They are not merely humans who gained power—they are the ideas themselves, shaped by the fear, hope, and imagination of every mind that has ever lived. As long as humanity understands these Concepts, the Primordials endure.Among all who have ascended, only five achieved true primordial status: Death, Agony, Love, Justice, and Evil.

Others have taken the path toward embodiment as well, binding themselves to lesser Concepts—Echo, Regret, Chance, Fury, and countless more. But these individuals do not command the universe with the same ancient authority. Their Concepts lack the universal weight carried by the Primordials, and so their influence remains subtle, their power muted.Others have taken the path toward embodiment as well, binding themselves to lesser Concepts—Echo, Regret, Chance, Fury, and countless more.

They move through the world still tethered to their human limitations, no stronger than ordinary people in body or will but they are still special and better but next to the Primordial Five, they are but flickers of light beside a star.They move through the world still tethered to their human limitations, no stronger than ordinary people in body or will but they are still special and better but next to the Primordial Five, they are but flickers of light beside a star.
And so, across the long arc of Earth's history, only a chosen handful have risen high enough to shape fate not as mortals, but as the eternal truths that govern all life.And so, across the long arc of Earth's history, only a chosen handful have risen high enough to shape fate not as mortals, but as the eternal truths that govern all life.
