Quantum Verse

Death was never the end. Every living being believes that beyond their final breath lies oblivion, heaven, or reincarnation. The truth is far stranger. When mortals die, they awaken in the Ascendant Realm, a place beyond space and time where every soul has the potential to become a god. The universes themselves are the creations of these ascended beings. Every star, every world, and every law of nature was imagined into existence by someone who once lived an ordinary life. But the endless chain of creation is breaking. Entire universes are vanishing without explanation, ancient gods whisper of a force older than creation itself, and newly ascended souls are beginning to remember impossible memories from alternate realities. At the center of it all is one newly deceased mortal whose arrival seems tied to the coming catastrophe. In a cosmos where the dead become creators and every choice births a new reality, the greatest mystery is not what happens after death. It is who created the very first god.
