Konol

From Continuum Universes Wiki

Kobol is the sacred world forged by Jovan and Asarea, the First Divine Parents of the Kosmos but *not* the Original Divine Beings of creation. Countless generations of Divines existed before them, shaping realms beyond comprehension. Jovan and Asarea preside over merely one universe among innumerable others, yet their stewardship is absolute within Kosmos.

Kobol was fashioned before Matter Unorganized was shaped into the Visible Realm—the galaxies, stars, and planets known to mortal existence. It is a realm of pure Divine substance, existing outside mortal physics, untouched by entropy or decay.

Cosmic Position

Kobol does not reside within the mortal-visible universe. Instead, it lies within a Great Cloud of Gas and Dust, a vast cosmic nebula so dense and radiant that it conceals the Divine Light of Jovan and Asarea from all mortal sight.

To mortals:

  • the Cloud appears as an unremarkable astronomical formation
  • Jovan and Asarea’s presence is entirely hidden
  • Kobol cannot be reached, perceived, or measured

To Immortals:

  • the Cloud is a veil protecting the sacred realm
  • Kobol is the axis of spiritual life in the Kosmos
  • the Divine Light radiates beyond time and space

Origin and Purpose

Kobol serves as:

  • the birthplace of all Children of Jovan and Asarea
  • the spiritual nursery where Immortals are taught the nature of existence
  • the staging ground for their descent into the developing universes

Before the Visible Realm was shaped, Kobol existed as an island of Divine order in a sea of unorganized matter. From this vantage point, Jovan and Asarea crafted the Kosmos through:

  • harmonizing chaotic matter
  • setting natural laws
  • creating cycles of birth, death, and ascension
  • preparing worlds for mortal habitation

The First Divine Parents

Although powerful beyond comprehension, Jovan and Asarea are not the first Divine beings. They inherit their role from generations of earlier Divines whose influence extends far beyond the Kosmos.

However, within this universe:

  • Asarea is the Mother of Spirits
  • Jovan is the Father of Order
  • their Children are the Immortals who populate the pre-mortal realms

Their authority is absolute within their domain, though they remain subject to the greater Divine Hierarchy beyond the edges of the Kosmos.

The Great Obscuring Cloud

The massive nebula concealing Kobol serves two purposes:

1. Shielding mortals from Divine radiance

Mortal senses, instruments, and even spiritual perception cannot penetrate the cloud.

2. Restraining hostile forces

The Divine Light prevents corrupted beings from approaching, a barrier that even Lusiel cannot breach after the Rebellion.

The Obscuring Cloud appears in mortal astronomy but is seldom studied, as its readings defy conventional physics.

Spiritual Function

On Kobol:

  • Immortal Children gained knowledge of the universes
  • they learned the laws governing reality
  • they chose roles for their mortal sojourn
  • they prepared to descend into the Visible Realm

Every spirit born of Jovan and Asarea passes through Kobol before taking on a mortal form.

Lusiel’s Rebellion

It was upon Kobol that:

  • Lusiel began his rebellion
  • one-third of the Immortals fell
  • Jovanah was chosen as the Savior of the Children

The rebellion shattered the harmony of Kobol but did not taint it. Lusiel was cast out into Outer Darkness after the first Judgment Day.

Judgment Day and the Future of Kobol

Prophecy states that:

  • the final Judgment Day will return to Kobol
  • all Immortals will stand before Jovan and Asarea
  • the rift caused by Lusiel will be repaired or sealed forever
  • the Kosmos will be renewed or concluded

Thus, Kobol is both the beginning and the end of the spiritual cycle.
