The Progressive Cycle

## Overview:

This universe goes through a cycle every Ati, which is 1 billion years. These Ati serve as a way for the universe to iterate upon itself and continually progress. Upon the ending of each Ati, a ritual must be done for a new Ati to commence from the currently completing one. A group of the most powerful individuals must come together to fuse into the creator & caretaker of new Ati. Upon the completion of the ritual the new god being will have the choice of expanding this timeline into something "grander" or to compress it into something "lesser". The universe initially started as a single point which eventually expanded into what it is now, where it has finally reached a sort of homeostasis. This homeostasis is in which all the infinite symmetrical timelines are in balance in the number of which grow and which shrink. In addition to this there is a fail state for each of the timelines which can occur. If the ending of a cycle for a timeline is coming, and the ritual is not performed to continue into a new Ati, the current one will collapse, fracture, and supernova outward into the temporal void, each being their own smaller pocket realm which will erode into nothingness. The number of existing timelines are also in homeostasis, just like the size of them. The number of timelines being destroyed through this fail sate equals the number of new timelines being created.

# Rius

## Primary (Ejens) - Dream World

### Introduction:

The Primary Rius is a realm which exists as the core of a universal iteration, and are connected to each other through a Riumĭs. This Rius has a lifespan of 10 Billion yun. This lifespan is referred to as a universal cycle. The point of time when this Rius dies and becomes reborn anew is referred to as the purge point.

The Riumĭs connects to the minds & souls of all things which have one and is what grants them the ability to comprehend and experience alternate universes. Within this multiverse, a dream is actually a mind/soul's connection to the Riumĭs growing temporarily stronger due to sleeping and being temporarily connected to a parallel or alternate universe.

## Secondary: (Girs) - The Spirit & Mortal Worlds

### Introduction:

Secondary Riu are realms which branch off of the primary Riu, and are connected to each other through a Riusol. have a lifespan of 1 billion yun, which is seperated into two equal parts of 500 million yun. The length of time equal to a Gir's lifespan is referred to as a Girti, while the subdivision is referred to as a Period. The first half of a Riu's is the incline period, where it grows until it reaches its peak. The second is the decline period, where it shrinks until it collapses upon itself. The point of time when one of these Riu dies and is reborn anew is referred to as a Shift Point.

The life cycles of the two different Girs are staggered relative to each other by 500 million yun, so that when one of the Girs is at its peak, the other one is dying and being reborn. Both of the two Girs are offset relative to the life cycle of the Ejen by 250 million Yun so that both Girs are alive and 250 million yun after/before their last/next rebirth, at the point of the Ejen's rebirth.

## Tertiary (Kogs) - Civic Worlds

### Introduction:

Tertiary Riu are realms which branch off of the secondary Riu, and are connected to each other through a Riulum. These Riu have a lifespan of 50 million yun, which is seperated into ten equal parts of 5 million yun. The length of time equal to a Kog's lifespan is referred to as a Kogti, while the subdivision is referred to as an Epoch. The lifecycle of these Kogs are staggered relative to each other so there are 2 Kogs dying and being reborn every 5 million yun.

### Stats:

* Realm Number: 20
* Domain Radius:

## Quaternary (Tep) - Fringe Worlds

### Introduction:

Tertiary Riu are realms which branch off of the secondary Riu, and are connected to each other through a Riumul. These Riu have a lifespan of 500 thousand yun, which is seperated into six equal parts of 50 thousand yun. The length of time equal to a Tep's lifespan is referred to as a Tepti, while the subdivision is referred to as an Age. The lifecycle of these Kogs are staggered relative to each other so there are 20 Teps dying and being reborn every 50 thousand yun.
