At the beginning of this era, in the war against the Subspace, the Sentinel Corps, in dire need of allies, bestowed power upon the Star Giants instead of the creator, helping them transcend the realm of divine spirits through the black technology left by the creator.
The exertion of great power came with harsh duties, and signing the frontier contract meant an almost eternal constraint had descended upon these new gods born under the radiance of the creator.
It was a terrifying duty; they paid a thousand years of bitter battles and noble sacrifices for it. However, the giants were not inherently divine, and they also had their own shortcomings, especially after the tragic fall of the War God Sulguk. Almost all new gods, unspoken yet in perfect agreement, secretly prepared themselves to prevent the worst-case scenario.
In the active years of the giants, the material world was still a desolate sight.
