"Hmm? Yeah. Adamas. Adam, whatever you want to call him. Same person either way," Barda replied.
"Right, that. But you keep saying 'Adam's Universe,' like it's just one. Doesn't he have at least a couple trillion under him or something?"
Arthur expected that a Progenitor as old and powerful as Adamas would rule over a multiversal-scale empire, and at his question, Barda blinked in confusion before realisation crossed his eyes.
"Seriously, what kind of Progenitor are you? You really have no idea how the Origin Multiverse works?"
"Of course I don't. I've never been there," Arthur shot back immediately.
At this, Barda sighed and explained.
"Whenever a Progenitor is born, a 'big bang' happens in the Origin Multiverse.
In other words, the birth of every Progenitor spawns a new universe within the Origin Multiverse, and that universe becomes 'theirs'. They're inherently linked to it, and ONLY they can ever be the Master of that universe.
