adventure beyond chaos cosmichorror eldritch eldritchgods experimental fantasy horror liminal metanarrative multiverse romance sci-fi timetravel

The multiverse has been rendered apart by a fatal flaw, causing universes and timelines to warp, twist, and collide. Reality has ceased to have any meaning, and most spend their lives in a constant struggle against the chaos that has enveloped the multiverse; living in the hollowed out shells of once great empires with technology and systems beyond comprehension.

Yet our protagonist, Dalia, who, in a normal universe, would be considered an 19 year old girl, has perhaps found answers. Deep within a facility beyond spacetime, guarded by an angel, are the answers she seeks. Or perhaps she already knows the answers.

Since even I'm not sure where this is going to go, I'm not sure what content warnings to put, but here I go:
Currently, there's blood, gore, death, and minor curse words. Very likely there will be depictions of insanity, suicide, murder, guns, worse curse words, and horrors beyond all human comprehension. Aside from that, I don't expect much else.

This is a first draft of...whatever this is. When I finish it, I'll spiffy it up so that it seems like I knew what I was doing all along, then repost it in all its chaotic glory. 

I appreciate any and all feedback, though in a website flooded by romance, I doubt something this experimental will get much attention. But if you did find this thing, thank you for joining me.
