After the Celestial Emergence, two deities born of it to serve as the functions that govern and care for the Cosmos come into being. Gifted with omnipresence, they saw a future where an anomaly also born during the great cosmic burst lays dormant in a pocket dimension. One that is formless, grotesque and powerful. Too powerful. A Shoggoth with the ability to deny truths, erasing them from the universe.
They craft the first mortal, eons before they come to be. A Berserker imbued with immortality and knowledge; to live countless lifetime's fighting to stop a Coven of Sorcerer's from opening the wound in reality and bringing the Shoggoth into the material plane. If it learned of the deities, it could deny them, without them folding reality in on itself.
