The seven Gods converged at the Gathering Place. The second God, Tempus, called them all together for an unknown purpose. It was very rare that all the Gods gathered, so each one knew it must have been important.
"I'm sure each of you have noticed the rising malice in the multiverse." Tempus spoke. His words echoed off of the quartz walls. "Few of you have done anything in your universe to contain it, however."
"This is not our fault!" The fifth God, Iris, yelled out. "Humanity is a race of violence and war, it's in their very nature!"
"That's exactly what Tempus is saying." Novus, the seventh God said. "Correct?"
"Precisely." Tempus nodded. "The creatures we breathed into existence are flawed, as they always will be."
"But we made them that way on purpose," Vici, the third God said. "Asinus told everyone why there could never be a perfect race, remember?"
"Yes, of course." Tempus looked at Asinus, who was barely paying attention. "I'm not saying we should make them without flaw, I'm saying-"
"He's saying that they shouldn't have used their flaws for violence." Nihil, the sixth, spoke for the first time of the meeting. "I've tried erasing war from my universe, but each attempt fails. War will always exist, Tempus, you know that."
Suddenly a deep voice entered the room. The first God, Tacete, rarely engaged in conversations during meetings, but he felt it was necessary this one time.
"Let Tempus finish his thoughts." His old voice barely muttered that one sentence "We don't know what he has in mind yet." The other Gods nodded and let Tempus speak.
"As I was saying, there's no way to get rid of war in humanity. And as many of you have noticed, their situation isn't improving. Each millennium ushers in new, and worse conflicts. I believe we must initiate Plan DX 272." All of the plans of the Gods were thought of before humanity existed. Each one had to be memorised by every God. Regular plans were used often, but DX plans were only used for extreme measures. Each one had multiverse-changing effects, and brought about many dangers and unforeseen consequences. The last time a DX Plan was used, it divided the fifth universe into two, and eventually led to the downfall of the former fifth God.
"The Curse… I had feared that plan for thousands of years, but in the past seventeen kiloyears I had considered it too." Tacete said.
"What? No way!" Iris yelled. "That would ruin all our work!"
"Ahem." Tempus cleared his throat. "Additionally, I would also like to initiate Plan DX 64."
The Gods opened into a roar of fear and surprise. Tempus must be joking, half of them thought, but it wasn't funny.
"If anyone else has any suggestions, please let me know." Tempus crossed his arms and waited. No one suggested anything else. The Gods eventually came into agreement that Plan DX 272 and Plan DX 64 would go into action. However, Plan DX 307 would also be activated. Plan 64 was also known as "The Multiverse-Merge" plan. Each universe would be combined to create one, singular universe. 272 was, of course, The Curse. It would place a curse of infinite conflict on the land, as a way for humanity to repent for their sins of war. 307 would create a new universe, where each of the Gods would try to create a world without war, but it would be seperate from the original universe and would never come in contact with it's much more violent twin. This is the story of the combined universe of infinite conflict, also known as Eternal Curse.
