The cosmos
The gentle scratching of a pen upon paper would be the noise most audible to all who ventured beyond our galaxy. Though the first question on your mind would be 'why is there someone writing in the middle of space?'
The simple answer would be this:
This is where the the all powerful deities reside.
The gods of their respected universe would reside here, often to chat with each other of their world and of their well being.
Now comes the second question.
'Gods? As in more than one? And they have universes?!"
Yes.
You know the concept of multiverse, good for you.
For those who don't know it goes like this; it's basically where multiple world exists at the same time, in some the world may not be very different while in others they would be clearly. And their universe will even have their own alternate universe within them.
All the deities know of each other since the beginning. When they were brought to existence they saw each other through the infinity and communicated. They had decided that they will rule their respected world they are born to and visit from time to time to talk.
This vow is what brought forth the Codex of Worlds.
The Codex of worlds is a very important book, for it contains the stories of the gods, along with the stories of the mortals.
Some from the past, and many from the future.
The Codex writes itself as it listens to the stories, keeping the tales in order, each from worlds and the alternatives they contained. Fascinated and excited for the action of every hero and villain alike, waiting to see what happens next.
As far as the Gods were concerned, the Codex was happy. Everything was in order.
But then the scratching became faster, panicked.
The gods noticed and saw that the pen had ventured from the Codex temporarily to write a message for the Gods; just before it resumed back to writing, yet there was hesitance in its writing.
They read and message and looked at each other.
It was a warning.
A warning where it foretold of a great evil that will discover this safe haven and manipulate the worlds to their will.
They gathered the deities of the world where the Codex wrote about and told them of the warning.
"So it seems that the great evil will escape the binds of the world and discover others." Spoke Odin.
"Indeed, and because it discovered a weak spot in the exit, we would be powerless to stop it."
The Codex then flipped the pages to a specific picture from their world,, with the exact number of the parallel reality.
"Yes, him. We know that he will be the one to defeat him, and yet you write that he would fail…"
Then the Codex flipped to another page of another world with a different parallel like the other one. To which he wrote on the corner.
There is hope. I discovered that he would not be alone. This person in this world is special. They will unite and defeat the evil. From what I see they will grow to become great allies...and perhaps even more ;)
Pushing the small jest aside they looked at the character that would join their hero.
"This person..is quite not the person we would expect..especially from their family."
"But if uniting them as one shall save not only their world, but the others as well, then it must come through fruition."
But there was a problem. The gods can not intervene with another universe lest they risk a dangerous paradox.
They need to get the God of their universe to pass their character to them to place them in their world. And it must be done gently.
The last time they had done it poorly it resulted in the Codex falling ill, nearly ending the worlds altogether.
And so the Gods of the world of their hero went to talk to their god.
"I see...I will do what I must if it means to protect our worlds. I must admit though..of all people the Codex chooses to accompany your Samurai..it would be the child of a family notorious for their...lifestyle."
And so they went prepare to their worlds, for they are on the adventure of their lives.
