"The conquest of evil in days gone by."
History, as we know it, states existence is built upon a foundation of scientific fact and mathematics. This long-held fact is a lie. The struggle between Good and Evil defines existence by its very nature. It is around such a struggle that the Universe was created and races old and new have arisen. For Evil must be confronted and contained. It must be conquered. In the beginning, there was only the void. And then something filled the void and it became existence. This is also a lie! Before what is regarded as the beginning, there was an ending. The raw energy of a new existence and the renewal of an old struggle came from the ending. For Evil can be contained and Evil can be conquered, but even when defeated... it still remains. And so long as there is Evil seeking to gain a foothold in existence, there must be those willing to confront it and defeat it.
And so a new battleground was formed in the shape of a universe. How did it happen? Where did the war between good and evil start again? How did an existence at the point of oblivion pass into creating a new reality, a reborn creator and the start of a new war? What role did the Power play and what of those that tried to tame it? The Void was darkness, lifeless order; the Morphin Grid a never-ending, constantly changing ocean of chaos; and where the two intercepted... came the Multiverse.
Myth and Legend is a companion story to The Conquest of Evil, revealing the origins of the conflict and the early days of the struggle. It is still a work in progress and intended to expand the rest of the story... and perhaps reveal one or two small mysteries of its own. Starting of course with the question: How did the knowledge of the nature of the Morphin Grid change so much?
Genesis
Before the beginning, there was The Void. Nothing existed. Then something changed and a new creation was revealed.
"Existence is the successful transformation of nothing into something. And once such a transformation has begun, it is almost impossible to stop."
The End
An old war comes to an end. The question is whether the end is true the end or just the transition to something new and exciting. For where there is life there is hope and where there are survivors, there's the chance of a new story to come.
The Beginning
After the ending, comes a new beginning.
Birth of Darkness
First, there was the void. Then came the energy and the void was changed. Then a second change turned the void into a universe giving form to The One and The Creator. Time passed and more was needed. Two more entities were given form: The Dark One and The Luminous One. But The Dark One fell from grace and The Luminous One charged to stop him. The first war between Good and Evil started, and before its end, The One was forced to make a difficult decision and pay a heavy price.
Cosmic Gods
As a reward for his service, Paladin was released from his duties and allowed the freedom to do as he pleased. But it seems that while the universe can tolerate Good and Evil, it has no place for lasting peace. Paladin's answer: to create a new race of beings with the same freedom he enjoys and able to decide what they believe in. For Paladin possessed the wisdom to see that for the universe to thrive, there needed to be a struggle. And the ideas of his creations clash, the conflict will bring the struggle the universe needs. And as these new 'Cosmic Gods' assume their positions of power, so the remnants of The Dark One's army appoint themselves as the Dark Gods, believing themselves to be the true deities and deluding themselves that one day they will hold the power.
Struggles for the Dark Throne
When The Dark One was vanquished, a power vacuum was left behind. When a group of lower level followers proclaim themselves to be Dark Gods and the natural successors to The Dark One's title, civil war breaks out - for despite falsely claiming to be worthy of the position it never occurred to them that other might do the same. And once the infighting is over, the new war begins.
Celestial Construction
The Celestials prepare the realm of mortals for habitation as they themselves get ready to depart.

His actions might force them to do something they will have to live with for the rest of their lives.
