CHATBOT: Title: *King in Black: Nexus of Nightmares* In an alternate Marvel Universe, the entity known to many as the King in Black has a vastly different origin, tied not to the symbiotes but to the very fabric of nightmares and cosmic dread. This entity, born from the darkness between the stars, goes by the name Nocturnis. **Birth Year: The Dawn of the Universe** At the birth of reality, in the nascent moments following the Big Bang around 13.8 billion years ago, two fundamental forces emerged: Light, giving shape to creation, and Shadow, the boundless void defining absence. From the deepest folds of Shadow, Nocturnis emerged, not as a being of malice but as a guardian of balance, ensuring that darkness would always complement the light. **The Era of Cosmic Expansion (13.8 Billion Years Ago - 1 Billion Years Ago)** Nocturnis roamed the expanding universe, a specter witnessing the formation of galaxies, stars, and life itself.

It became a myth, a cautionary tale whispered across galaxies. **The Modern Emergence (1945 A.D.)** The detonation of the first atomic bomb on Earth marked a renaissance of fear, drawing Nocturnis from its exile. It saw in humanity's capacity for destruction and terror a mirror of its own dark essence. However, instead of dominating humanity, Nocturnis chose Earth as its crucible to understand the evolving nature of fear in the face of hope. **The Battle for Earth's Soul (2023 A.D.)** The incursion of Nocturnis onto Earth did not go unnoticed.
