Ever wonder how big the Big Bang had to be to create the universe?
Now imagine a balloon filled with water. If you squeeze it tightly to reduce its size, the water inside will push back. If the resisting force becomes stronger than the balloon's durability, it will burst, and all that internal pressure will be released outward. But because of friction and air resistance, the force gets reduced.
So, the larger the amount of water and the stronger the balloon, the bigger the resulting explosion will be.
Now imagine the water is all the matter in the universe. The balloon's durability is enough to compress it to a single point, and there is nothing else to resist the force. And that's when you get the Big Bang.
What if "Nothing" actually stops it? What if the void around it actually resisted the expansion of space from the singularity? And that's where our weird story took place.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deep in space, there was something that was supposed to be the universe of this world, but it isn't... yet. Something resisted the birth of this universe. It's the void, a piece of nothing that gains consciousness through pure chance of chaos in the multiverse.
Now I know what you're thinking, isn't it you who is void and chaos? To that, I'll say yes, I am, but do you know what every cell of your body is doing? Also, if something can control it, is it really chaos anymore? But wait, if I can't control chaos, then am I chaos? Whatever, better not debate this kind of chicken-or-egg kind of problem. It's a waste of time, and I don't even have an ego to protect or dopamine to harvest from winning a debate with... myself?
Anyway, where was I? Ah yes, sentient void. Now, if I told you to imagine void, most of you'd imagine some black fluid that consumes anything, right? Well, that is the more understandable way to describe void. Void is a state of existence that is supposed to be nothing at all, yet something still could observe it, so it isn't nothing. The more describable voids are the black fluid, the bugging titles and the white space.
