29->"In my youth, many years before I took the name 'Yukari Yakumo', I had a severe fever and was forced to rest for the better part of several weeks. [...] As I slept and recovered, alternating between sane and delirious, in my mind's eye I saw a flaming blue titan that both destroyed and was dealt destruction in return. The thing that struck me most, the thing that became permanently engraved on my mind, was what would happen if that titan were to fall in battle and not get back up: The destruction of paradise, with Gensokyo vanishing into reality forever. Humanity's last hope extinguished. All of the fantastic races still in existence gone once and for all. A person I had yet to meet fading away in a flurry of sakura petals. Earth crushed within the Glorft's iron grip. Overall, a Bad Ending."

132->The Descent of Creation is come, and [[HumanoidAbomination the Unnamed]] stands triumphant, the architect of mankind's history -- from its promising beginnings to its terrible end in fire and torment. [[EvilSorcerer The Nameless Lords]] bestride the Earth like titans, and the ruination of reality reaches its crescendo. Now that the Gauntlet is no more, [[LaResistance the Traditions]] and the Technocratic Union have fallen and the other willworkers of the Earth are scattered in fear and fractiousness, the Unnamed raises high his ultimate weapon, ready to end the war forever and break humanity to his yoke.
133->In a ritual held at the new site of his rule, in the blasted wasteland that was once Eden, the Unnamed summons his masters to Earth, giving them leave to incarnate physically within Creation. As they do so, [[RealityIsOutToLunch pockets of the Tapestry dissolve forever]], unable to support the weight of the cthonic titans. Here and there, around the world, pregnant women miscarry children, [[FetusTerrible finding horribly misshapen things that crawl away of their own accord]]; animals bleat and howl, with some of them going mad and rabid and others just dying; and bodies of water turn to blood and venom. The order of Creation is broken, and [[EldritchAbomination Those Who Came Before]] are given dominion over all that is. Finally, their jealousy finds its satisfaction and they learn what it is to have substance and existence, [[DownerEnding to the lamentation of reality itself]].

141->[[ApocalypseHow/Class2 Humanity’s numbers are drastically reduced]]. Although any sort of accurate estimate is impossible, it is clear that the better part of the population died or was driven irrevocably mad during Cthulhu’s brief reign of terror.

Those who did not fight in this war shall now become the final victims. Their homes shall be burnt and the future of their children shall be sacrificed on Sauron's cruel altar.

179->In the years that followed, the legend of the [[TheCasino Sierra Madre]] faded, and there were no... new visitors to the city. Years later, when [[RedSkyTakeWarning a mysterious blood-red cloud]] began to roll across the Mojave, then West toward the Republic. No one knew where it had come from. [[DeadlyGas Only that it brought death in its wake]]. Attempts to find the source of the toxic cloud failed. The Mojave was cut off. Through the Cloud, lights were seen from HELIOS One. There were stories of ghosts immune to gunfire, who struck down anyone they saw with rays of light. The last chapter of the Mojave came when a modified REPCONN rocket struck Hoover Dam, releasing a blood-red cloud, killing all stationed there. All attempts to penetrate the Cloud and re-take the Dam failed, and both the NCR and Legion finally turned away from it, citing the place as cursed. In the years that followed, communities across the West began to die as traces of the Cloud began to drift over lands held by the NCR. [[BigBadDuumvirate Only two]] remained alive in the depths of the Cloud, at the [[SupervillainLair Sierra Madre]], waiting for their new world to [[ArcWords begin again]]...

182->By the end of the Dark Crusade, Kronus was a tomb world once more. Just as the marching Necron armies cut down all their opponents, [[HostileTerraforming so did other fiendish devices work on the planet's very ecosystem]]: scarab swarms scoured the lush jungles of the south and the fertile plains of the north, while pulses of loathsome energy killed even microscopic bacteria. [[ApocalypseHow The seas died and the air itself became rarefied and poisoned]]. Soon, sterile sand and dust swept across the Kronusian landscape, broken only by black monuments to the [[EldritchAbomination Nightbringer]]. Kronus became the black heart of the Necron purge in the eastern edge of the galaxy: warriors emerging from the monoliths of Kronus [[OmnicidalManiac would bring death to worlds across the Tau Empire]], the domains of Ultramar, and many more sectors. Imperial strike fleets, Tau battle formations and Eldar raiding teams would all try to retake Kronus -- only to fall before the huge crypt vessels protecting the tomb world from orbit. Each heroic effort only added more deaths to the Nightbringer's tally...
