The cosmos is defined as the universe seen as a well-ordered whole but before there was a universe, there was an endless abyss of vast space called the Void. After the void came the nine realms. The nine realms existed as a single planet known as the cosmic planet. The cosmic planet exists in nine different realms/dimensions at the same time. In every realm, reality is different, and the planet is inhabited by different beings.

The first realm is the Alpha realm- realm of The Alpha Gods. The Alpha Gods are immortal beings that possess magic. This magic of theirs allows them to either place curses or bestow blessings.

The second realm is the Beta realm- realm of the beta gods. Just like the Alpha gods, the Beta gods are also immortal, however, they do not possess magic. Instead, they are equipped with great physical abilities such as speed and strength.

The Alpha and Beta Gods have always been at war, however, being immortal, their war waged for what felt like eternity and they could only end it by coming to an agreement.

...but more on that later.

The third realm is the Mortal realm- realm of the mortals. The mortals are humans created in the image of the gods. Although they did not possess immortality, magic or physical prowess, the mortals had something the gods did not, humanity. The first mortals that ever existed in the cosmos, were named Ask and Embla.

The fourth and fifth realms are the Ice and Fire realms. Both realms are inhabited by ice and fire giants respectively. The giants in these realms are not as huge as giants should be but they are referred to as giants because they double or triple the size of the gods and the mortals. The fire and ice giants, like the alpha and beta gods, have been enemies since the dawn of their time.

...however, in their case...there doesn't seem to be any talks of peace...not yet anyway.

The sixth and seventh realms are the realms of the elves. The first elven realm is the light realm- realm of the pure elves. The pure elves are beings made of magic and they have the ability to foresee the unfolding of a special king of magic.

...more on that later.

The other elven Realm is the dark realm- realm of the dark elves. Unlike the pure elves, the dark elves are neither made of magic nor can they use it, however, they are very intelligent beings. Their intelligence has led them to advance in science so much that it could be mistaken for magic.

The eighth realm is the realm of the dwarves. The dwarves are very strong but simple-minded beings that are blessed with the skills of master craftsmen. They specialize in the engineering and creation of advanced technology and machinery with the help of the dark elves.

The last of the realms is the realm of chaotic giants, also referred to as the chaotic realm. The chaotic giants could triple or quadruple the size of an ice or fire giant at the very least. They behave like mindless creatures bringing destruction and chaos everywhere they go.

Across all nine realms in the cosmos there is a tree and within this tree there is a rainbow-coloured portal that connects every realm to one another.

This is simply called the Port.
