When the universe came into existence, a new dimension was created alongside it. Empty and uninhabitable, this other dimension stayed the same for millions of years. However, when the first living creatures developed brains, the other dimension gained a mind of its own, one that connected to all more evolved creatures in the universe and was capable of changing the dimension. Millions of years passed and the mind of the dimension had created a distorted replica of the universe due to the influence of all living creatures. The dimension became a world of chaos and imbalance, where prey and predator were stuck in an eternal cycle of chase and instinct ruled the collective mind.

​

More time passed and the universe kept evolving, creatures in certain parts of the universe began gaining self awareness and instinct stopped dominating them. This brought massive changes to the other dimension, the collective mind began creating beings, places and objects that the sentient creatures imagined and even gained a limited sense of awareness, while not actually having a personality of its own, it learned of what it was and divided itself into two beings, one which was responsible in creating and developing all that existed in the second dimension, and another which was responsible with learning its world and becoming a true ruler. Order began to reign in the dimension, groups began forming and the dimension began to divide into distinct areas that barely interacted with each other. Eventually the side of the collective mind that created the world couldn’t handle the amount of sentient beings in the universe and their thoughts and began to overload. This created the Great Tear, a rip in the dimension that connected it to the universe.
