The Void of Chaos

The Void of Chaos is a realm located inside and outside The Outerverse, consuming anything near it to grow. It holds the centre of knowledge, Anguis.

## Information

The Void of Chaos, being the concept of disorder (The moment when stability moves to instability; Chaos against Order), is a realm that has breached The Outerverse. It is Outerversal on the exterior but is Metaversal within its interior, which is presumably why its progress in consuming The Outerverse is so gradual. Interestingly, the exterior of the realm seems to possess its own form of magic, altering the obstacle's dimensional function to allow it to enter. The realm cannot be entered through any other means, as the realm can only allow entry if one is to touch the magic itself, assuming Etana allows it and Vox proceeds with it.

Within the realm, numerous and varying ruins of other worlds have been scattered around all over the place, being anything from demolished cities to entire solar systems devoid of a star. The ocean itself is habitable, as the towers are so tall to the point where the stars themselves reach far apart from the ocean, kind of like the habitable zone for a planet. Additionally, the realm applies an automatic immortality and invulnerability system, meaning that you wouldn't waste any time within the realm... Quite literally. Its ocean has plenty of life to adore, possessing animals such as fish, Jellyfish, marine reptiles, marine mammals, and most commonly, The Spectre Flower. The Spectre Flower is a treasured vegetation that is honoured by all inhabitants, usually being fed Magic by the citizens even though they actually don't need Magic. It's sort of like praying in their world, doing so to show respect to the Ancient Dragons. In terms of design, the realm itself has a seabed solely made up of sand, which has been augmented to not turn into glass and to be able to provide comfortable travelling for visitors. Nearly the entirety of the open world consists of water, which is rich in salt but not to the point where any fish would die. The sky is notably red, possessing an orange-blue-like hue that brightens up the sky, bringing a beautiful and calming scenery to it all. In terms of locations, the realm provides many different landmarks that can identified by their unique impressions.

## Locations of Interest

These locations provide a scenery objectified to one's liking, alongside having a purpose on their own. Each will be named after the marine invertebrate Coral, as every obstacle (Aside from the sand) gains a strange growth of Cnidaria.

### Coral City

The Coral City is a widespread location that takes the shape of a modern city, being far-ranged in the amount of residences that it has. The city is nine to twelve times larger than Tokyo and has a population count of over 480 million people. Surrounding the city are large towers that reach above the ocean floor, having a height of unimaginable proportion. These towers serve as landmarks, allowing one to know where the city is located. Alongside this, each tower possesses a large-sized star, serving as a light for the deep ocean. This is likely why the sky is so radioactive and warm, alongside the ocean that lies beneath the scorching stars.

### Coral Mountains

The Coral Mountains, being very eminent due to their enormous sizes, serve as a popular landmark far away from the city. Their heights reach up to the sky but serve as a comfortable area underwater, having built-in hotels with the size that you'd usually expect in a visit. You can also technically rent or buy a house within the city, but most people prefer the hotels if they'd like to get home.

### Coral Cavern

A large, lit-up cavern can be found within one of the Mountains, which is home to an extraordinarily large Ancient Dragon. The dragon dormant within the cave is known as Caw, being within the size range of gigantic mountains. It is not dangerous to interact with Caw, as he is resting and has no reason to harm you anyway. But if you have megalophobia, you should probably not enter...

### Coral Ruins

These are the ruins of various planets and cities that were sucked into the realm, chained deeply into the sand through magical means. They are almost completely covered in large coral growth, only sustaining oceanic life as a result of that. They are popular tourist attractions, since the light from the stars above gives the planets a noticeable aura.

### Coral Forest

The Coral Forest is a seemingly unending pathway filled with coral that takes the shape of trees, sustaining major amounts of life as far as the eye can reach. The creatures vary in size and proportion, with most large marine animals living there due to the coral attracting smaller fish. They settle in such areas to feast on plant life, causing a chain reaction of larger animals, both herbivores and carnivores to arrive and eat each other as a result of that.

### Coral Shrine

This is a large shrine deriving from an ancient cult, likely from one of the planets that are chained within the ocean. The thing that makes the landmark popular is the location itself, which lies right in front of the mountains. It's strange how the shrine is still unharmed even after being flown so far away from its original location. The coral has avoided growing on locations other than the stone platform underneath the shrine itself, allowing it to show its beauty in all of its glory. Alongside this, inside the shrine lays various upright plates of stone with various depictions of everything that has undergone within The Chaos Void and it's beginning, decorated with golden figurines and sculptures.

### Coral Pit

The Coral Pit is the final and deepest location of the realm, devoid of any light as far as the eye can see. The Pit itself is seemingly nothing special at first sight, as just like anything else within the opening mass of the realm, it solely consists of water and coral. The hole itself has no end reachable, as its length expands like that of space within our very own Universe, meaning that it is likely close to an entrance that leads to different masses, separated only by dimensional means. This separate mass is what is called the "inner mass", being a culmination of Multiverses all collected into the Failsafe Barrier. Due to space continuously expanding within The Coral Pit, creatures of unnatural and unimaginable sizes are believed to lurk deep underneath. It remains only a belief, yet people decide to stay away. Which is for the best...

## Extra Information

### The 3 Layers

The three layers are, by simple definition, the building point of the realm. These layers reside within the interior of The Chaos Void, and continuously move in a circular formation to align with the Omniverse in a corrupted and abstract way. It does not possess a direct influence over fiction, yet instead simply exists with it, like an unwanted parasite that continuously develops its own mass surrounded by layers that serve different purposes. There are technically two additional layers, one being the centre point of the realm and the other functioning as the exterior vortex. However, due to one of them not existing within the interior and the other simply being mass, they are excluded from the category.

The first layer, being the one surrounding the mass, consists purely of infinite segments that continue into infinite layers of dimensionality. This is where The Coral City lies, only functioning because of The Wall and The Barrier. The reason is due to the segments being so compact, the dimensions within that gap are forced to expel mass from the inner level and outer layer, allowing that small area to function like an ordinary universe. Hence why ruins are spread literally everywhere, whilst the inner mass is completely untouched and only changed when a Universe is sucked in. The second layer is the concept itself, which is the backbone of the realm. Without it, Chaos would not exist, nor would fiction function in the same way as before. Order creates life, while Chaos destroys and replenishes it. The final layer is simply a boundary, being the reason why the realm is tied to the Omniverse to begin with. It has nothing else to it.

#### Makeshift Link

Makeshift Link is the anonymous magic that controls the Failsafe Barrier, manifesting as magic but not functioning as magic at all. It uses this as a form of cover-up to its mysterious properties, and completely wipes out any logical sense as to how it functions, alongside where, when, and why it manifests. The only thing known about it is that it alters anything with logical backbones, into an illogical phenomenon that transpires into further influence over rules. An example of this is how something could've existed forever, but simultaneously not exist and/or simply existed by the laws of time.

#### Scarlet Lightning

Scarlet Lightning is a natural phenomenon that strictly and only occurs within the harsh environment of The Chaos Void. Its heat exceeds that of anything comprised of energy within any Universe, taking the shape of electrons that forcefully bend and twist while moving around its Nucleus, giving it its red colour. The likely function is the beginning of a discharge like any other lightning strike, but bounces right back at its gaseous field within an instant, overheating the discharge to the point where it's given a Scarlet luminescence. The strength of said lightning depends on how fast it exceeds in speed towards its derived location, allowing one lightning strike to destroy an entire planet depending on the lightning density and if it reaches a bouncing speed of light. Its strength can be increased through Magic and/or Chaos Magic.

### Chaos Magic

Since the realm has practically created its own mass, replicating the Omniverse in the same way that it created life, henceforth came its own version of magic: Chaos Magic. Chaos Magic does not come from the SOUL, but instead is an expansion of it. This does not alter the exhaustion of using it, but does change the all-around capability that a being with normal magic would not have. First of all, due to Chaos being the literal opposition to Order, a being with said Chaos sorcery would gain the ability to affect oneself limitations. This means that if a magic user were to expand in strength, the Chaos user would jump over that gap and overcome it no matter what. Second of all, Chaos Magic strictly affects the SOUL and mind if imbued with a focused attack, even when the attack itself was meant to damage only the body. As a result of this, users oftentimes prefer using both, since they automatically calibrate to affect the body, SOUL and mind all at once.

#### Bloodborne Plague

The Bloodborne Plague is simply debris left behind by Chaos Magic after it has a volatile interaction with another object that does not possess a SOUL or a consciousness. This happens because Chaos Magic does not possess the ability to make a gap with anything that is not alive and is above physical prowess, resulting in a self-reactive explosion that ends up contaminating the area. Due to Chaos Magic occasionally managing to escape from its realm, they likely turn into Bloodborne once they hit objects they should not touch.

#### Deja Vu

Deja Vu is a phenomenon that occurs when a user combines a small amount of Chaos Magic with normal magic, and decides to use 100÷100 of their magical reserves, to then build it up to 100÷50, then 100÷25, and 100÷1, resulting in an increase of Chaos output that doubles one's physical strikes when imbued with said magic. This must be consecutive after every fraction and must happen within 30 seconds with each strike, otherwise, the buff will fade away. Each fraction counts to multiplication, meaning that if you use 100÷1 of your magical reserve, you will end up with an attack a hundred times stronger than what it usually would be. The reason why the phenomenon is called Deja Vu is because, once used, both the one that was hit by the user and the user themselves feel as if they have been and done that exact same thing before. This likely has something to do with the psychological effect that it has, which isn't malevolent in any way, yet instead simply a disturbing experience.

## Trivia

* The writer has created his biggest nightmare: Large things with the colour red. Nice.
* The realm is mostly recognized by the locals as beautiful due to the very scenery that it has. The ruins are the most popular.
* The Spectre Flowers are a hologramic-imbued, Scarlet red and black flower that releases pollen that sends out wavelengths in a certain motion. They link to the failsafe barrier, being a substitute for anomalous magic. The said magic is called Makeshift Link.
