The Endless Space, the Godless Realm, the Sea of Stars, The Infinite Void - Different names all describing one single plane of existence, the Cosmos. It is an space outside of galaxies where no God dares to go, a place where cosmic creatures reside and where untapped cosmic energies reside, being the tool used to manipulate reality itself by shaping existence.

The origins of the Cosmos is commonly unknown but theories suggest that it has existed well before the Dawn of Existence, before the Eldest came and created life in the form of countless worlds that filled the void. Others believe the Cosmos was an afterthought of whatever created the universe, a glitch or flaw that came to be from the scraps that made Existence a reality. Whatever the true story may be, the Cosmos is known as a sinister place from which no one may escape and its inhabitants, the Demons, are known as fierce merciless creatures that actively seek out to destroy the creations of the Eldest, traveling onto the worlds gifted with gods just to cause chaos and destruction as well as reaping the souls of the living and bringing them to the Cosmos.

When someone dies, there is a risk of the soul losing its way and ending up inside the Endless Space, forever searching for a way out while becoming tainted and twisted with the essence of the Cosmos. Souls that cannot escape the Cosmos in time become consumed by it, fueling the Godless Realm with even more energy that allows the spawning of additional Demons while souls that could escape the Cosmos are touched by it, forever marked, causing them to return to the world of the living as Ghosts or even Phantoms seeking a way to be freed from the void's touch.
