Magnus Whitlock describes his life on a plane of existence known as The Nexus, serving as his own pocket dimension where he can control almost everything except the nebulous concept of human sentience and emotions. With a device that lets him communicate with others in a network of people in the same type of existence, he learns of how this reality was formed and devises various plans on how to reshape it to recreate everloving bliss for everyone instead of the suffering that plagues it.
