Prelude

Far, far away, in a parallel reality where no one wants to go because it takes a lifetime to reach, there is a city called Universe. It is a sparsely populated area, making it difficult to find pleasant acquaintances, and this is another reason not to visit unless you're comfortable alone. There is nothing really to see or explore. Since the beginning of time, everyday life has followed the same routine: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and orgy.

There is a Wisdom Tower in this wonderful Universe where the most talented and intelligent people of the Universe live together in peace and harmony, hiding from the prying eyes of intrusive observers, or simply onlookers, as they were called in the good old days. Among them, we find a handsome singer who decorates their monotone existence. If you could only hear his velvet, rich baritone and listen to his soul-tearing songs, you would immediately fall in love with him, as all the ladies of the Universe did. Everyone would have described his singing as nothing short of brilliant. And that was certain to him. So, to underline that level of talent, the singer wore shining costumes made especially for him by the local garment factory.

The garment factory stands outside the city wall, in the industrial zone of the Universe, also known as a Town of Industry. The only way to get there is through a hidden secret tunnel. No one in the Town of Industry is allowed to enter the city unless transported by special means and under the control of the Blue Overall Guards. That was the Universe government regulation, which nobody seemed to mind. People of that Universe are apathetic and disinterested in everything by their nature.

Life changed when the Patroness Saint Lady of the Universe, who was also the Universe King's secret spiritual lover, took notice of the handsome singer's talent and beauty. "What an interesting man. There is nobody like him around. When I look at him, my soul smiles and fills with triumphant joy. Imagine what a life it would be if every man looked and sang like him. Terrific! Wisdom Tower people are boring, and the people of the Underground World are also boring. Industry people depress me the most, to be sincere. This talented man must become mine," she decided.

There are many secrets in this Universe, and the story will reveal all of them.
