Kaos is a universe of gods, creation, and cosmic turmoil, where divinity and mortal fate are forever entwined. Born from the will of Preforus, the first divine being, Kaos took shape through the hands of celestial architects, the Osorian, who sculpted the skies, seas, and land. But the birth of gods brought conflict, ambition, and betrayal, setting the stage for a world where order and chaos wage an eternal struggle.
From the divine shaping of the world to the rise of humanity, the story of Kaos is one of creation and destruction, faith and deception, war and redemption. As mankind navigates the blessings and curses of their gods, their fate hangs in the balance—guided by the benevolent, tested by the wicked, and forever watched by those who dwell beyond the stars.
