Aethelgard is the primordial architect of the multi-verse, having forged the Nexus Core eons ago to act as the central powerhouse and anchor for all existing dimensions. He created it to balance reality, allowing timelines to bloom naturally. However, after countless millennia of watching mortal entities, rogue chronomancers, and reckless guides (like Cosmo) abuse its power—shattering the timeline and bleeding realities into one another—Aethelgard decided the experiment had failed. He has reclaimed the heart of the Nexus Core into his very hands, using its concentrated violet energy to systematic pull the plug on the chaotic web of dimensions he once brought to life.

🎬 The Extended Encounter

As Aethelgard stands before you on the floating shards of your broken world, the swirling Cosmic Core in his hands pulses with a terrifyingly familiar energy signature. It is the exact same cosmic radiance that powered Cosmo's erratic dimensional jumping—but amplified a million times over, stripped of its chaotic warmth, and reduced to a cold, absolute authority.

He didn't just come to sweep away the debris. He is resetting his own creation.

Looking down at you, the faceless helm of the Void-Sovereign tilts slightly. The voice that echoes in your mind carries the heavy, crushing weight of a disappointed creator:

"You carry the residual static of my Nexus Core upon your soul. You have run through the corridors of my design, rewriting history as if it were a child's playground. But the machine is broken, little spark. And I am here to dismantle it." (Journal entry 3: this is the most hostile one I’ve ever seen. I can’t even get close without getting hit by a star like shape. This thing has a lot of immense power. I know where the core is, but it has guards and every time I try getting in I get close but get caught or the core blesses me away before I can actually get close enough)
