Eternity lies with me.
I am the seen and unseen, the well from which the Collective sprang forth and gave breath to life as we know it.
I exist in the infinite sea of threads. Watching over countless stories that occur within the ever-growing expanse of time and space.
I am the progenitor of what rests in the cradle of existence.
A single gesture into the void can bring forth a thread of my choosing. Within its fibers, one can bear witness to the past, present, and future of one of many worlds.
From the Beyond to the sea, the haven of Aeon to the void of the Abyss, I see all.
Even you, from the thinnest of lines adrift in the sea.
May you see as I see.

This is the Overseer.
Funnily enough, this came much later in my creative process. As I got more involved in the cosmic/space/alien aspects to my world-building, the Overseer became the bedrock for details of the obscure. It was one of those things that wouldn’t reflect itself within the stories unless absolutely necessary.
This entity serves as an origin point for the whole of the Collective, a neutral force to help represent the positive and negative of existence.
The Overseer represents the positive.
Plus, it’s fun to make something weird and out there for something involving forces that exist beyond the fabric of reality.
