Okayy, it's time for a breather. I had been on the grind spewing out chapters upon chapters for the whole week and I think I'm gonna stop for awhile. By 'stopping for awhile', I just meant like taking a break for a couple of days, and I hope my idea-box is full by that time. Though, Chapter 6 may or may not come out today or tomorrow but I am certain that it will come out this week.
Planning aside, Chapter 5 is a huge milestone for me... Each time I hit 5 chapters, I'm going to be releasing an 'Author's Notes and More' just to take a breath and chill, and also explain a couple of stuff along the way. Speaking of 'explaining stuff', I know some may be confused that I've just thrown a bunch of names of places and heirarchies (yes, those exists in my book), so for the sake of our braincells I'm gonna be explaining them in a Q'n'A style:
Question: What the hell is a Nexus Crystal? (First Introduced in Chapter 1 and 2)
Answer: A Nexus Crystal is an object or a small crystal that can 'set things right', in reality, the Nexus Crystal is an object that makes the holder's magic more controllable, more accessible and easy-to-use

Question: What the hell is a Celesta then? (Mentioned in Chapter 2)
Answer: As said in the Side Note of Chapter 2, Celesta is an energy only found in celestial beings and antimatter particles, usually consumed and used for magic by the ones who can wield it, In addition to that... It is part of a Magic System heirarchy that will be introduced in Chapter 6. In the Magic System, A Celesta is the highest substance in the heirarchy of magical universal substances, it is the foundation of magical quantum and functions as a knowledge repository similar to a library. Each element has its own Celesta. I might sound super cryptic with those terms right now but I don't want to spill all the tea, I want Chapter 6 to do all the talking ;)

Question: Who is Adam? (Encountered and mentioned in Chapter 2 and 5)
Answer: The product of Jacob's turmoil, essentially, Jacob created 'it' by accident, but due to Link/Yehezqel's mentoring and mastery of magic, he learned to control Adam, more encounters of Adam will be made in later chapters!

Question: What's a Prodigon Stone? (Mentioned in Chapter 3)

Question: What is the Quartz Clock? (Mentioned in Chapter 1 and Chapter 4)
Answer: It is the embodiment of time itself.
Next!
Question: It was mentioned that the Watcher is a clockwork, how is that so? (Mentioned in Chapter 5)
Answer: The Watcher might be a member of the Nexus, yes... but he is still a mortal, he lives purely off Celesta and Time Manipulation to prevent aging, though this did not work for him so he resorted into altering his own body to be clockwork so he could live longer.
Next!
Question: What is The Nexus Order/Council? (Mentioned in Chapter 4 and 5)
Answer: It is a group that consists of 8 people who take care and reigns over control and balance of the universe, The Watcher is a member of the Nexus, he is the third member of the Nexus who holds time infinite.

Question: What's the Grand Pentagon? There's some sort of place heirarchy but I don't know how to make sense of it (Mentioned in Chapter 5)
Answer: Now we're talking!, The Grand Pentagon is a framework I made when I was bored, representing a tiered hierarchy structure of realities, each layer holding significance in the cosmic order of existence. It's comprised of five layers or realms, each with its own characteristics, inhabitants, and unique attributes. Here's an explanation of each layer within the Grand Pentagon:
- Upper Genesis: This is the highest and most celestial layer of the Grand Pentagon, dwelling place of celestial beings, gods, and demigods. It's a realm of immense power, where the most powerful entities reside, beyond the comprehension of ordinary mortals. The Upper Genesis is a domain of divine energy, cosmic knowledge, and unimaginable potential.
- Paradigm: The Paradigm is the layer that encompasses everything physical and material, akin to the universe itself. It houses galaxies, stars, planets, and dimensions, embodying the physical laws and structures governing existence. It's the realm where the tangible and measurable aspects of reality manifest.
- Reality: Positioned between the celestial Upper Genesis and the physical Paradigm, Reality is where everything happens. It's a layer closely tied to time, forming a crucial part of the continuum where events unfold, and causality reigns. Mortal beings primarily reside here, navigating the world through their actions and choices.
- Pentagram: This layer is characterized by the embodiment of the seven deadly sins – a complex and metaphorical representation of various malevolent aspects of existence. It's a realm riddled with vices, where entities or manifestations aligned with these sins dwell. The Pentagram often serves as a challenge or temptation for those traversing the higher layers.
- Void: The Void is an enigmatic and mysterious layer, shrouded in uncertainty and devoid of known information. It remains a mysterious realm, possibly harboring entities or energies beyond conventional understanding. It's an unknown frontier where the secrets of existence might lie hidden.
More Information about these layers soon as the Chapters progress!
Anyways, ahem.
Next!, I said Next!... Oh wait, no more? alright!
That concludes my Q'n'A for this Chapter!
Come again soon when I have made Chapter 10

Here's the Heirarchy System for everything else by the way:
Hierarchy of Places - The Grand Pentagon:
1. Upper Genesis: The highest layer, where celestial beings, gods, and demigods reside. Celestial powers and entities are present here.
2. Paradigm: The layer where everything physical exists, akin to the universe. Pendragons and other higher beings draw their energy and power from celestial sources here.
3. Reality: The layer where events occur and time manifests. Humans primarily reside in this layer.
4. Pentagram: Inhabited by entities embodying the seven deadly sins. Considered second to the lowest layer but rival in power to beings from the Upper Genesis.
5. Void: The lowest layer, shrouded in mystery. Demons, known as the Children of Adam, reside here.
Hierarchy of Characters:
- Children of Adam (Demons): Reside in the Void and the Pentagram, considered the lowest within the hierarchy.
- Pentagram (Seven Deadly Sins): Inhabit the Pentagram and the Void. Although second to the lowest, their power rivals that of beings from the Upper Genesis.
- Children of Jacob (Humans): Reside in Reality, considered the middle part of the hierarchy.
- Pendragons: More than humans, drawing their power from celestial energy. They occupy the upper-middle part and reside in Reality and Paradigm.
- The Watcher, Paradox, Nexus Order, and Superior Entities: At the top of the hierarchy, residing in the Paradigm and the Upper Genesis.
