a TOW (The Omega Wars) & Chaosverse crossover
written by izabela and chia

Wasn't friendship its own miracle,
the finding of another person
who made the entire lonely world
seem somehow less lonely?

I like people who dream
or talk to themselves interminably;
I like them, for they are double.
They are here and elsewhere.

DO YOU EVER JUST FEEL AS IF A PART OF YOU IS MISSING?

Like you have completed a puzzle, one of those difficult ones, where the picture it paints is rather abstract and abhorrent to understand and perceive all at once, but right in the middle of it, a single piece is missing. You turn your whole house upside down trying to find that missing piece, but it's nowhere to be found. You check the box in which the puzzle came and you count all the many pieces of that monstrosity to make sure that it is not how it's just meant to be, and you are correct: one piece is definitely missing.

Only a lunatic would go looking for that missing piece in someone else's house, because no one in their sane mind would believe there is a cruel bastard out there stealing puzzle pieces to get by.

But that's how it always has been for them: a puzzle rigged from the very beginning.

And when I say beginning, I do not mean that flimsy introduction of some history book, but the beginning of a Multiverse cycle. The old slate was wiped clean and on that fragment of the First Firmament, a new Multiverse was reborn. It was in that first second of life, when it had but a single universe in all its voided infinity in booming expansion, that the Split Essence gained its name and its two ruptured halves froze the cycle, falling on different sides of the great darkness until two different universes became their home.

To describe how much time has passed since the birth of the Multiverse into this new cycle that would go on forever, it means to challenge all the Mathematicians who ever lived to expand their knowledge of how many digits a number can really hold. But time did pass. The Multiverse did grow into an uncountable myriad of universes and almost outside Their will, the puzzles of the Split Essence halves have almost become whole - save for that missing part that they could never find in the confines of their own world. 

Sierra Harss' sabbatical is about to get a new and unexpected extension.

After her self-discovery journey to the fabled Book of Vishanti, the White Witch was ready to return right back to her husband and place that ring on her finger again, claiming her victory, with peace as her prize: she has tamed Chaos Magic. She's earned her return to normalcy. Only normalcy didn't quite agree with her just yet, not when an overlapping circular symbol lingered on her mind as some enigma that refused to be solved, at least by means available to her.

When a malfunctioning portal reunites her with an old friend from another universe, Sierra catches the feeling she's getting real close to solving the puzzle that her destiny is. 

Nicholas Strange started to dream again.

Ever since saying goodbyes to his past and accepting all the scars he used to despise in order to become the Heartbringer, everything felt different. Even dreaming. Was it his price to pay for harnessing the power of the Heart of Darkness and trying to understand its true nature or was it his inability to get along with his demons as well as he thought? Possibly. But one thing he knew for sure: something strange was stuck in the air.

Whenever he fell asleep, the same nightmare reoccurred, luring him to do the unthinkable. Finding himself to be linked with the White Witch herself, because he was pretty sure that was the alias his old friend liked to go by now, Nicholas fights his fears of the prophetic dreams - fights them so hard those fears call the counterpart of the night terrors forth and the two of them wake up in a world they don't know.

AKA . . .   In which Nicholas Strange and Sierra Harss are pulled into a Multiverse-wide conspiracy against them, or at the very least the great potential they supposedly hold. With the strangest, most powerful beings after them, the duo has to not only make sense of the new world they find themselves trapped into, but also piece together the mystery that links their destinies into one.
