In deep space there lays an asteroid field where the heavily militaristic and violent Chitauri knew as home. At a point in the field there is a throne made of rock and debris which is levitated through technology beyond any humanity has ever hoped to accomplish.

The one who sits upon the throne is known throughout the cosmos as the Mad Titan, Thanos. Divider of Species, Conqueror of Planets, and other titles both deserved and undeserved.

Here, upon the Chitauri's central area, Thanos governed like a God. His 'sons' and 'daughter' of the Black Order venture out into the expanse of space under the commands of their 'father' to retrieve artifacts known only as 'Infinity Stones'.

The only beings allowed to walk in the presence of Thanos were his 'children,' his personal servant 'The Scholar,' and 'invited' guests. In this moment, The Scholar stormed towards his master as he hastily kneeled and bowed his head.

"To what importance does the information you have to the point you barge here without announcing yourself?"

"Forgive me, master! I have reports from your sons: Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian."

"Hm, I shall forgive you this once but always remember to arrive in my presence with respect."

"Of course, master."
Standing at a straight, the Scholar bowed forward and affirmed his understanding to his master's order.

"Now, tell me what these reports are."

"Several days ago, Ebony Maw and Cull Obsidian arrived to an area of space littered with Black Holes."

"Black Holes?"

"Yes, Black Holes."

"Continue."

"The reports state that former reports and documents that travelled along the same path Maw and Obsidian use state that Black Holes never existed there."

The Scholar stopped in his tracks as he looked at his master if he had any questions. Thanos nodded for the Scholar to continue.

"Yet the most crucial part of their reports are about four large entities that came out of the Black Holes."

To this, the Mad Titan stood from his seat and went down from the steps. Each step he took resonated in the air, The Scholar shivered as the pure power and might resonating off of the Titan nearly made the servant collapse on the floor and bow.

As Thanos stood in front of his servant, who was shivering in fear, he said.

"Inform the Black Order that all their missions are to be terminated immediately. I want them monitoring those entities."

"B-but, master... What about the quest for the artifacts?"

"The Infinity Stones are capable of destroying Black Holes, rewriting reality, and reversing time itself. Yet nothing states that the stones are capable of harming beings beyond the universe."

"Y-your w-will be done, master."

The Scholar said as he sheepishly troddle out of the room leaving the Titan to stare off.
