Evil existed before creation, lurking in background and waiting for the moment when it could gain purchase in a rapidly expanding universe. Eternal, indestructible, even the loss of its agents could not remove its stain from reality. Not even the Creator himself can expel Evil entirely.

From the distant past to the far future, the battle between Good and Evil continues. For the villains a single goal: the conquest of the planet Earth and with it, the key to ultimate power. For those seeking to stop them a vital task: protect the world.

Evil cannot be destroyed, but it can be vanquished, contained and overcome. And so long as there are those to fight it, it can never claim victory. And as the lines between Good and Evil blur, the question should be: is Evil the natural state of things and Good the abomination?

In the early days of the universe, the war between Good and Evil began. It continued long after the multiverse had formed and the Morphin Master had uncovered the darkness on the far side of the Morphin Grid. As new servants of evil arose, so those that would oppose them emerged. Ancient enemies, powerful alliances; factions determined that they would win.

In modern times, Evil grows stronger because it offers power to those that would do the things that a good person would never consider. It is the easy path that twists and corrupts those that follow it, fooling those that believe they are righteous. Once evil gains a foothold it is quick to grow, consume and dominate. And once it has had its way, the wounds it inflicts can never completely heal.

But, while evil is impossible to destroy the darkness can be chased away by the love and sacrifice of those that remain vigilant and willing to stand against it.

HOLDING BACK THE DARKNESS

"The modern battle between good and evil"

Evil is a powerful force because it offers power to those that would do the things that a good person would never consider. Is the easy path that twists and corrupts those that follow it to believe they are righteous. Once evil gains a foothold it is quick to grow, consume and dominate. And once it has had its way, the wounds it inflicts can never completely heal.

But, while evil is impossible to destroy the darkness can be chased away by the love and sacrifice of those that remain vigilant and willing to stand against it.

And when the latest phase of the war, the battle between Zordon of Eltar and Rita Repulsa, ended, it promised a brief respite as the forces of darkness raced to fill the void left by one of their most skilled commanders. And while Zordon's forces could claim the victory, they did so with the knowledge that their noble leader would no longer be amongst them in battle. The cosmos entered a period of unease as both sides worked to recover from their losses. Who could step up and take the place of Rita Repulsa; would such a being be allowed the opportunity to prove his worth? Without Zordon, who would take up the challenge of leading the forces of light?

The Earth is a planet that was once considered of little value in the grand scheme of things. But the fallout from the war left many wondering why Rita was so determined to conquer the planet, and why Zordon considered it so important that he established a permanent presence there. Suddenly considered a prize for every villain wanting to prove their worth, and a liability by those seeking to prevent the dark forces from gaining a vital foothold in a cosmic power play that stretches back billions of years, the stakes have never been higher. As the opposing sides gather their forces, the Earth and its population risk becoming an unfortunate loss.

This series is set after the events of Power Rangers Zeo in the Conquest of Evil and references some events that are expanded upon in Myth and Legend, Observe the Viewing Globe, and Book of Interludes
