Chapter 5 - Cosmic Womb Universe

"From Her breath came stars. From Her silence, war."

🌠 Origin Myth: The Birth of All

At the edge of time, before atoms or gravity, there pulsed an ancient sentient force: the Cosmic Womb. A singularity of infinite fertility and will, she dreamed existence into being — birthing stars, dimensions, and consciousness from her galactic core.

The Cosmic Womb split her essence across the universe, imbuing select females with fragments of her Womblight, granting them reality-warping abilities tied to creation, entropy, gravity, memory, time, and rebirth.
