Adding more updated information and dividing the old and new iterations of the series. Also, why keep referring to the Deanverse as "Deaniverse"?


On February 24 of 2024, [[https://youtu.be/As6n4gFw_Pw?si=j3a0eQ8b97M0-I0D ATLANTIS SHORES]] was released, effectively [[ContinuityReboot rebooting the entire series]].

* AdaptationalVillainy: Maize Machines wasn't particularly portrayed as either good or bad in the Deaniverse. In the Emberverse, however, they're implied to straight up have killed Irene Forest and faked her suicide. [[spoiler:Or did they...?]]

** ''Ember Mythos'' possibly even started out as a PseudoCanonicalFic. The disclaimer at the end of ''IMPACTORINCISION'' even explicitly states that it was ''set'' in the Deaniverse.
** ''Rob Mythos'' also references events of the Deaniverse, such as the Suez Canal Crab and Dean's presidency.

* AlternateHistory:
** The Soviet Union still existed even in the 1990s and seems to have far more cordial relations with the United States, to the point the two jointly operate a Lunar base defended by [[SpaceFighter space superiority fighters]].
** As noted above, the presence of space-based fighters and weaponry indicate that their 1990s is more advanced compared to ours, at least with regards to space technology and weaponry, and more focus given on space travel and infrastructure in response to the threat presented by the [[EldritchAbomination Spires]].
* CoolStarship: The SF-99 Tempest II [[SpaceFighter space superiority fighters]] manufactured by the Americans, which are fairly-hard sci-fi fighter spacecraft whose most notable engagement was a five-fighter squadron defending the American-Soviet Anaximenes base against a ''single'' [[EldritchAbomination Spire]], the Hadley Spire, and its escorts, [[PyrrhicVictory successfully destroying it but with the loss of two of the squadron]].
* ShoutOut:
** On their way to intercept the Hadley Spire, Mudbed wonders if they could target a potential weak point to destroy it like in [[Franchise/StarWars Star Wars]].

Empyrean Rings, as the author describes, is an AnalogHorror series first conceived as a "fan-made passion project AU of WebVideo/TheMonumentMythos", though that evolved into its own original story. The Series spans two channels, [[https://www.youtube.com/@EmberAlberson/videos Ember Alberson - Films]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/@THERIVERLATIONS Whiteshell]], each one representing a different universe, Ember Mythos and Rob Mythos respectively, but they are linked and present of one connected multiverse. In July 2022, a third series belonging to Empyrean Rings was added to Ember's channel, ''Infinite Oceans'', set in another universe (or presumably, multiverse) than the other two series, forming a [[RuleOfThree trinity]].
