Before Time: The Harbingers were ethereal beings, each embodying a fundamental

aspect of reality. Ronas, the weaver of physics, had a form composed of shimmering
threads, representing the laws that govern the universe. Xanol, the cosmic
architect, manifested as a celestial figure adorned with galaxies, shaping the
vastness of space. Tonopah, planet-shaper, appeared as a living, geological
tableau, embodying the landscapes of planets. Iona, the stellar artist, radiated
with the brilliance of a thousand suns, her form a cosmic canvas of stars. Kentay,
the life-forger, took on a fluid, ever-changing form, embodying the diversity of
living beings. Their personalities were intricately tied to their roles. Ronas was
stoic and methodical, ensuring the order of the cosmos. Xanol possessed a visionary
spirit, always seeking to expand the boundaries of the universe. Tonopah was
patient and nurturing, sculpting planets with care. Iona exuded creativity and
warmth, delighting in the beauty of stars. Kentay, the most dynamic, was curious
and adaptive, fostering life in countless forms. As for their motives, The
Harbingers collectively sought balance and harmony in the fabric of reality. They
aimed to create a universe where order, creativity, and life coexisted seamlessly,
fostering a delicate equilibrium. However, their unity was about to face a profound
challenge that would set the stage for the emergence of superheroes in this cosmic
saga.

The Essens, fundamental forces created by The Harbingers, included: Aetherion: The
essence of pure energy, governing the ebb and flow of cosmic power. Chronosia: The
keeper of time, orchestrating the progression and flow of temporal currents.
Mattera: The embodiment of substance and structure, influencing the physical
composition of the universe. Psychna: The force of consciousness and thought,
shaping the minds and intellects of beings. Vitalis: The essence of life and
vitality, weaving the threads of living existence. However, over billions of years,
jealousy consumed Chronosia, the keeper of time. Envious of the creators' power to
weave reality, Chronosia initiated the War of Strongest. The other Essens,
influenced by the discord, joined the conflict. In a desperate attempt to preserve
harmony, Ronas, the weaver of physics and a pacifist at heart, decided to
intervene. Faced with the destructive chaos of the war, he launched each essence
and being into different time periods, scattering them across the ages. This act,
known as the Temporal Exodus, aimed to diffuse the conflict and allow the Essens to
rediscover their purpose while safeguarding the universe from complete destruction.
This scattered distribution set the stage for the emergence of superpowered beings
in various timelines, each with a unique connection to one of the Essens, their
powers intertwined with the fabric of the universe. The repercussions of The War of
Strongest would echo throughout time, influencing the destiny of heroes and
villains alike.

War of The Strongest (In depth): The War of the Strongest was a cataclysmic
conflict that unfolded in the vast expanse of the universe, challenging the very
fabric of reality itself. Initiated by Chronosia, the keeper of time, the war was
fueled by jealousy and an insatiable desire for power. Envious of the Harbingers'
ability to shape the universe, Chronosia sought to seize control and reshape
reality according to their own will. As Chronosia initiated the conflict, the other
Essens were not immune to the influence of discord. Aetherion, the essence of pure
energy, became restless and unstable, fueling the destructive power of the war.
Mattera, the embodiment of substance and structure, began to unravel, causing the
physical composition of the universe to fluctuate and distort. Psychna, the force
of consciousness and thought, spawned an army of manipulative and twisted beings,
spreading chaos and confusion. Vitalis, the essence of life and vitality, succumbed
to a dark corruption, leading to the emergence of monstrous creatures that
threatened the very existence of living beings. Faced with the disastrous
consequences of the war, Ronas, the weaver of physics and the champion of order and
balance, made the difficult decision to intervene. Despite his pacifist nature, he
recognized the need to preserve harmony and safeguard the universe from complete
annihilation. With his immense power, Ronas launched each essence and being into
different time periods, scattering them across the ages. This act, known as the
Temporal Exodus, aimed to diffuse the conflict and allow the Essens to rediscover
their purpose.

125,000 Years Before Present Day: In the wake of Kentay's lingering anger, a meteor
pulsating with cosmic energy hurtled towards Earth, impacting the planet 125,000
years before present day. This influx of celestial energy triggered an accelerated
evolution of Earth's creatures. Sharks, in particular, underwent a remarkable
transformation. Some evolved into a humanoid species, now known as the
"Selachians." These beings exhibited human-like qualities but retained distinct
shark features, with light blue skin, razor-sharp teeth, prominent fins, and
powerful tails. Their enhanced physical attributes made them formidable in both
land and water environments. Meanwhile, the human species experienced an
unprecedented leap in civilization. The cosmic energy infused into the Earth's
ecosystem spurred rapid intellectual and technological advancements among humans.
This period of accelerated development became a pivotal era, as humanity laid the
foundations for complex societies, forging connections, and building civilizations
far faster than on other planets. The collision of the meteor, guided by Kentay's
tumultuous emotions, had inadvertently shaped the destiny of Earth and its
inhabitants, setting the stage for a world where Selachians and humans coexisted,
each with their unique gifts and challenges. The consequences of this celestial
event would echo throughout history, influencing the interactions and dynamics
between these two divergent yet interconnected species.
