The Last Life Concept 

Humans believe what they believe in. Some claim to be waiting on a ticket to paradise after they're no more whereas some believe that Death is part of the cycle and there is no afterlife. Both could go on a never-ending debate without a concrete conclusion. The only way to explain "The Life Life Concept" is by using "The Bridge Theory". 

Humans and everything we know and understand exists only in three dimensions. Just Three Dimensions. We understand the science behind birth and life of a species because it is contained and locked within three dimensions. But why can't we comprehend death? is it simply because we don't know what happens in the end? Even our dreams at night stop us from revealing the aftermath of Death. 

Well, Death acts as a "bridge" which is only on the other side of life.  Bridge? What are you even talking about? you may ask

Death is a bridge that leads you to an infinite dimension. 

Death is not the end of life. It is the beginning of a new one where we are now transported to somewhere known as "The Astral Realm" where deceased souls of every being from every dimension are found desperately wandering here. In this realm, two different beings from two different dimensions can merge "as one" for one last chance. From then on every step is purposeful and consciously made.

 Layers Of Realms

The First Layer - "Mortal Realm" or "Earth" 

The first layer is the living planet itself, "Earth" or "Mortal Realm" as the Gods call it. It comprises every living species in existence. Gods usually live and feed on the beliefs, praises, and prayers of humans. So many Gods ceased to exist simply because they were forgotten from the mortal's mind. However, The Mortal Realm acts as a link between Gods, Demons, and Humans. While humans spend their lives questioning the thin line between reality and divinity, there is a second life awaiting them in The Next Layer with a monumental purpose. 

The Second Layer - "Astral Realm" 

 "Astral Realm" or "The Realm Of The Wanderers" is a spiralling void. It is so quiet in this realm that one can communicate with their fellow deceased family member, friend, or anyone they've known personally. The Astral Realm is devoid of any particular dimension as it can shift into anything the mind wants and it is an infinite space of nothingness and can occupy anything as much it wants. It can even store intangible humane elements like emotional baggage, feelings, and memories for eternity and can be retained at any desired time. The souls of other dimensional beings can be found wandering here desperately waiting to be accepted inside the body of another dimensional being, meaning every soul gets to live again for the last time "as one" with another being from a different dimension however it is impossible for two beings from the same dimension to merge. The Astral Realm's only disability is that of physical contact with anything or anyone from the mortal realm. But on the other hand, it is fully capable of having a spiritual contact or connection.

The Third Layer - "God Realm"

The timeless and ageless realm of the gods is beyond any human understanding. The defying laws of science and maths in this realm could kill a being from another dimension for even attempting to understand it. Firstly there are 2 Types of Gods,

TYPE 1:

"Supreme/Ruling Gods" who sit in "The Gods Council." They're the ruling bodies of The God Realm, they devise strategies and laws to keep the Realm safe and in control. The following are the Four Ruling Gods who govern over their areas of expertise, namely, "Tymor The Fire God", and  "Valyn The Water Goddess" who's the only female ruling god in this realm. "Nox The Wind God", and lastly "Xil The Father, The God Of Earth & Balance". 

TYPE 2:

"The Non-Ruling Gods Or The Lesser Gods" These gods have no control over the Gods Council and cannot partake in any parliamentary situations. The Lesser Gods usually guard the realm, extract information about the other realms, or even enter into the other realms to complete commandments assigned by the Ruling Gods. The God Realm is a vast land of separate entities where even less powerful or non-ruling gods have a kingdom of their own. Gods of many kinds and powers reside here, ruling planets and dimensions.

But even Gods are not perfect, they create dimensional drifts, and mishaps and can even bring collateral damage to their realm as Gods turn on gods, battles brew, greed and lust for power take over their minds, and so on. But every 835 years (in human years) they all stand together as one for The War Of The Realms. it would last until a realm surrenders or a Ruling God is defeated from their Realm. But things have gotten way out of control since the last War Of The Realms came to an end. It had undergone a brutal massacre. Millions of non-ruling gods perished in the battle, thousands fled to unknown places. The God Realm was dethroned and obliterated by "The Last Layer". 

The Fourth Layer - "The Realm Under" or "Dark Realm" 

Just as gods feed and live on mortal's beliefs and prayers, The Lords, Kings, and Warriors Of The Underworld are born from the fears, beliefs, and the twisted ideas that grow in the minds of the mortals. They are merely real but they combine quickly and take impossible physical form with immeasurable powers to torment other beings and take over the other realms. "Null" is "The King Of The Underworlds" and "Rinheath" is "The Queen Of The Underworlds" They've built an army of unstoppable soldiers, lords, and guardians, but only a little of The Under Realm is known as of now since there has only been a handful of gods who were powerful enough to enter inside the Under Realm and come back alive. Others have perished.
