This is the first chapter in the first installment of what I hope would be an extensive series on the mysterious fourth dimension. It has been called many names in different franchises, and in this one, it is called the Interdimensional Rift, a big part of the plot.

This book is a recap of what happens in Dissidia 012 during Confessions of a Creator with a very specific set of party members and a tie-in to the big mystery that is the 4th dimension


Must I wait for the perfect time or act now? Even if Shinryu is the lord of this realm, Feral Chaos is at the verge of destroying him and, in return, this world. Must I summon the heroes? Even at their full power and strength, I would be endangering both our lives and theirs by bringing them back to a world that has been wiped clean from their memory.

"Cid…"

Cosmos. Please… you need to rest

"I will not let my efforts go to waste. I am wounded and weak for a reason. Did you already forget? My loss of strength is the reason why the warriors are still alive, and they are kept alive precisely for this purpose, to save this world from dispersing"

Cosmos, even I am too weak to call the warriors. How much can I call? 4? Maybe 5? What will happen then when they die?

"You have two options. You cannot call them and establish the full destruction of this world, or you can summon warriors and give us a chance of living to fight another day. We cannot give up hope Cid. You of all people should know that."

You need not remind me the fruits of my mistakes Cosmos. Which is why I cannot endanger any more lives!

"Cid. Listen to me. When the never-ending cycles of war began, what was required of the warriors? What was to be done to their minds?"

Look, I know. I made the deal myself. Warriors from other worlds can be brought here only if they have no memory of their world here and no memory of this world in theirs. What's the point?

"Cid! This is not the time to be arrogant. Think about it. When you interfered with the cycles denying Shinryu of his power, the barriers of this world collapsed. Now that this world is exposed to the others, the world's laws will have to conform to the others, forcing a balance. The warriors will remember the world they came from and even get what they most desire, as a side-effect of losing their memories of this world."

That's a doozy of a theory don't you think?

"It's not a theory Cid! Look what happened to Chaos when the worlds began to fall apart. He turned Feral, a side effect of losing after cycles of winning. What's to say the same thing can't happen to our warriors?"

Cosmos, I…

"Please listen Cid. These heroes are our only hope."

Cosmos… I understand. Besides, between the 2 of us, you have more experience with fighting in this world.
