Countless minds have contemplated the mysteries that lie beyond our universe, delving into the enigma of infinity. Among these seekers of truth, some have embraced the idea of parallel worlds or alternate timelines existing in harmony, giving rise to what is known as the multiverse.
The notion of alternate universes, often abbreviated as AUs, holds genuine merit. Imagine these AUs as intricate flowers with roots that spread far and wide, encapsulating all conceivable variables. To simplify, visualize a continuous line extending from the birth of the Big Bang to the present moment. At each infinitesimal juncture, a multitude of events unfolds in a timeline, encompassing every chemical reaction, the birth and death of stars, and everything in between.
But what if one of these moments took a different turn or didn't occur at all? In such instances, a new branch, like a root, emerges from the original timeline, forging an alternate reality. This process repeats for each timeline, giving rise to what we call an AU.
Consider an AU like a sheet of paper - a simple analogy to help us conceptualize it. In actuality, comprehending an AU is far more complex than glancing at a piece of paper. The sheer intricacy and wealth of information contained within an AU can overwhelm even the most astute minds, often leading to a sense of bewilderment or madness when attempting to grasp it in its entirety.
These AUs collectively constitute the structure known as the Multiverse.
The Multiverse is an amalgamation of countless AUs, ranging from a finite number to an almost unfathomable quantity, continually expanding as new ones are added.
If you were to inquire about the whereabouts of the Multiverse, you'd receive an unexpected answer. It resides within another construct known as the Doodle Sphere, a whimsically named sentient construct we will delve into shortly.
With the existence of the Multiverse, it's only natural that certain entities may harbor intentions of dismantling it for their own purposes. Were it not for the protective barrier of the Doodle Sphere, many of these entities would rip through the AUs as though they were mere sheets of paper. However, the Doodle Sphere functions as a safeguard, permitting only the most formidable entities to enter or interact with the Multiverse.
These formidable entities, often referred to as Destroyers, compelled the Doodle Sphere to take a defensive stance by appointing a guardian for the AUs. This guardian was chosen at random from the Alternate Timelines (ATs) and crafted in the image of its creators. The guardian took the form of a diminutive skeleton, its eye sockets adorned with glowing dots and its bones etched with cryptic markings. This protector stood resolute within the gentle, light-yellow glow of the Doodle Sphere.
Initially, the skeleton guardian's lack of emotions raised concerns, especially given its role as a protector. To address this, the Doodle Sphere took swift action by infusing the skeleton with a fluid, almost liquid, range of emotions. While this transformation took less than a second from the Doodle Sphere's perspective, for the skeleton, it felt like years. This was a necessary evolution to ensure the guardian could effectively fulfill its role, having been devoid of emotions for an extended period.
As the skeleton guardian began to experience emotions, it developed a profound understanding of its purpose. Its mission was twofold: to safeguard the existing AUs and to play a unique role in the creation of new ones. With newfound emotions coursing through its being, the guardian embraced this dual responsibility with unwavering commitment.
In its role as a protector, the skeleton diligently stood guard over the AUs, ensuring their safety from external threats, including the menacing Destroyers. The guardian's glowing eyes, once void of expression, now radiated determination and a sense of duty.
Additionally, the guardian possessed a unique ability - the power to shape new realities. The skeleton, inspired by its creators' whimsical name for the Doodle Sphere, would craft intricate doodles and drawings on blank sheets of paper. These artistic creations held the power to spawn fresh alternate universes, each born from the guardian's creativity.
And so, the Doodle Sphere earned its name not just because of the whimsy of its title, but because it was a place where the protector incessantly doodled, breathing life into new AUs and ensuring the continued expansion of the Multiverse. The guardian's drawings were not mere idle sketches; they were the foundations of uncharted worlds, each with its own set of possibilities and adventures waiting to be explored.
