Gonna be as fast as possible regarding this because Mbxx is probably gonna delete everything.
Also, the reason why both the Elric Saga and Doctor Who can both exist is because the conjunction of spheres rebooted the entire multiverse. Doctor Who is what comes after the Elric Saga.
scenes from the Elric The Balance Lost comics
Here it is.
Specifically, he destroyed half the earth. It wasn't a claim that he could.
It was something he already did in the past.
I would simply bring up the fact that Elric of Melnibone is able to survive on moons, and inside of suns even before getting Stormbringer. It happens during his dream quests in Imrryr. So, he can both survive in the vacuum of outer space and in the environment of the interior of a sun. Besides, the typical sorcery like manipulating the elements. As well as necromancy.
Probably, someone will say this didn't actually happen because it was in one of his dream quests. However, something to remember is the fact the astral bodies Melniboneans have during these dream quests are perfect copies of their real bodies. They're tangible by having flesh, and blood. These dream quests are actually happening, and Rackhir even met other Melniboneans on their dream quests. When he was in his real body. These dream quests are actually happening, and when Melniboneans sleep on the dream couches? They get perfect copies of their actual bodies, and live different lives in other universes.
Considering this I think it's safe to say the setting is multi-megaversal or omniversal.
It's also hypothesized that humanity originally came from a Ghost World, and it was humanity much like us. Which affirms this size.
That's not the only time Ghost Worlds are referred to as universes, and hosts of universes either.
More on it.
The conflict between Law, and Chaos is the internal struggle of the mortal soul. The death, and rebirth of reality is the mortal soul trying to reconcile how it perceives reality. Basically, it is very Zoroastrian.
Also, I didn't post it before because of how incredibly meta it was but Michael Moorcock exists in the setting. He gets the ideas for his stories in Marrakesh, and from Jack. Who is revealed to be The Jackal. More commonly known as Anubis who ferries the dead, and he is an expert in the Game of Time.
Once more we see that the moonbeams are roads leading into other realities, and which people literally walk across. It is so commonplace you can see the moonbeam roads littered with countless travelers making their way to other realities.
Also, some things from The Hollow Lands. The second book of The Dancers at The End of Time.
We learn that people with power rings can literally create fully-fledged solar systems. Which includes both planets, and stars. Not just miniature versions of them. It is said in Shanalorm they have access to technology that lets them use the whole energy of the cosmos, and they even have the capability to recreate the entire universe.
Lady Charlotina made a perfect recreation of Rome, and then disseminated it after the lions ate the population. In this Rome she created flying elephants too.
A lot more updates.
Arioch's fiefdom includes a million supernatural realms, and as realms are noted to be spheres that means he has control over millions of megaverses. He is capable of destroying them all as noted by Elric.
Baron Kalan contributed to the Conjunction of a Million Spheres. He could freely manipulate time in any way that he wanted. There was nothing in the multiverse that could hurt him besides the Eternal Champions. Anything else passes through him doing him no harm. Ilian, one of the Eternal Champions, is able to slay him.
The cosmic balance acts as the regulator which controls the Grey Fees. By destroying it a person can become the new regulator, and take control of the Grey Fees.
When people go on dream quests they do more than just leave their bodies, and live their lives out in replica bodies across the multiverse. They even create the universes in question.
Elric notes how dangerous going on dream quests is, and that people create universes and series of universes in the best case scenarios. In the worst case scenarios they threaten to destroy absolutely everything in the multiverse. Just with their sorcery, and drugs.
Elric defeats Prince Gaynor the Damned. The Eternal Predator, and constant enemy of the Eternal Champion. He does so by summoning hundreds of Stormbringer's brothers and sisters. After which Stormbringer greedily devours every aspect of Gaynor. We see Elric breathe fire like a dragon too.
Sepiriz makes note of the fact that all black swords are as powerful as each other.
Straasha, the Lord of Water, embodies the gods of all oceans and has dominion over every ocean in the multiverse. He has his own sphere where the water spirits reside, and he opens a way for Elric to go back to the plane he was looking for. Elric swims his way through universes of water with Stormbringer, and every ocean in the multiverse before finally making it to his destination. His backstroke is to be feared.
The Four Who are One experience, and contain the entire multiverse within themselves.
Now here are some really crazy ones. These instances are taken from The Skrayling Tree.
Ulric von Bek, and Sepiriz are able to navigate their way around the Skrayling Tree. Which embodies, and encompasses the entire multiverse. Ulric Von Bek grows to the size of galaxies while he is on his search for his wife, and yet he is still but an insignificant speck when compared to the tree. There are gusts of wind that shake the branches, and twigs of the Skyraling Tree. The spheres, and realms which make up the multiverse. It is revealed that it is the breathing of one of the phoorn. The dragon relatives of the mernii. In fact, it is the greatest of them. The Great Wyrm. The World Serpent.
Ouroboros.
We learn more about the phoorn. How they conquered universes, and witnessed the death of galaxies. The mernii otherwise known as the melniboneans were the half-human, and half-phoorn offspring they had. Ouroboros was sickening because without his skefla'a he had no way to feed on the multiverse, and he was starving to death over the course of thousands of years. Normally, he would be immortal with his skefla'a. The unique membrane the phoorn have. Which is a problem as he is was chosen by the Soul of Creation to protect the Skyraling Tree as the greatest of the phoorn. Which means his starvation is poisoning the whole Skyraling Tree, and threatening to destroy the cosmic balance. Which is why he asks Ulric Von Bek as one of his descendants to bring an end to his life before that happens.
Here Elric who summons Lord Shaoshooan. A lord of wind. After which Prince Gaynor the Damned hacks away at the roots of the Skyraling Tree. Lord Shaoshooan is able to summon tornadoes powerful enough to cause damage to the Skrayling Tree and shake it. However, he is contained by the nine Kakatanawa.
Elric grievously wounds the World Serpent, and cuts into his spine with Stormbringer. After which we find out he was only pretending to side with Prince Gaynor in order to give the World Serpent back the skefla'a it so desperately needed. It turns out the shield was one part of the skefla'a, the talisman Elric had given Ulric is another part of it, and he uses his sorcery to conjure flames to fuse it back into the World Serpent's spine. Another thing to remember is at this point Ulric, and Elric are the size of galaxies. The World Serpent is still far larger than they are, and yet these flames he conjured could still do this before disappearing among the branches of the Skrayling Oak. A good speed feat for Elric's sorcery, and the fire he can conjure.
Ulric, Elric, and White Crow fuse together to become the Three in One. At which point their black swords fuse together, and become the first black sword. The so called "archetype" of the black sword. After which they restore the Cosmic Balance, and undo the damage to the Skyraling Tree.
Also, something I forgot earlier but Elric notes how it only takes three blows with the Horn of Fate to change the nature of the entire multiverse.
