The Rise of Mericross: A Global Superpower in Shadows

Mericross began as a secretive organization, born from the ambition to monopolize the power of raw potentiality—a concept that exists at the very boundaries of possibility, allowing them to manipulate and maintain a small but immensely powerful portal to the Void Beyond. This portal, a gateway to realms unknown and forbidden, became the cornerstone of Mericross's early operations. It was through this portal that they began their darkest enterprise: the capture, enslavement, and exploitation of lower-class and peaceful living beings such as mannequins, angels, demons, and androids.

The Void Beyond, a place of unimaginable horror and mystery, was used by Mericross as a holding pen for these unfortunate beings. They were dragged through the portal, stripped of their autonomy, and subjected to the most brutal forms of torture and subjugation. Mericross, driven by an insatiable greed and a perverse desire for power, established an underground black market where these enslaved entities were sold at exorbitant prices to the highest bidder. The organization quickly became infamous for its cruel and sadistic practices, as they took great pleasure in watching the bloodshed and suffering they orchestrated. The deaths of innocent beings were not merely a consequence of their operations but were seen as a spectacle—a depraved extravagance that catered to the darkest desires of the world's elite.

This macabre industry laid the foundation for Mericross's vast wealth and influence. They became the architects of a global slave trade that supplied the most depraved desires of corporate crooks, warlords, and tyrants. Their influence spread like a shadow across the world, corrupting even the most noble of souls and dragging saints into the depths of madness through the sheer weight of their malevolence.

The Inner Circle: Puppeteers of the World

While Mericross began as an organization rooted in the exploitation of potentiality and the suffering of others, it evolved into something far more insidious. At its core, Mericross became an international society—a secretive social club for the world's wealthiest and most powerful elites. This club, however, was not merely a gathering of the rich and influential; it was a clandestine Inner Circle that sought to control the world from the shadows.

Membership in Mericross was a privilege reserved for those who could bring wealth, influence, or power to the table. It was passed down through generations, ensuring that the bloodlines of the world’s most powerful families remained intertwined with the organization’s dark legacy. New members could also earn their place through immense wealth or influence, with many joining for the perverse pleasures the club offered. But beyond the hedonistic allure, there were those who saw Mericross as a path to greater power—a way to manipulate global events and reshape the world according to their will.

The true purpose of Mericross was to exert power through politics, economics, and strategic manipulation rather than outright conquest. The Inner Circle understood that true control came not from open domination, but from the ability to influence and steer the course of world events without ever revealing their hand. They became masters of deception and coercion, forging strategic alliances with nations, corporations, and supernatural entities to further their own agendas.

From the shadows, Mericross orchestrated wars, revolutions, and assassinations. They toppled governments, installed puppet leaders, and manipulated economies—all to ensure that the world moved in a direction that served their interests. Every major conflict, every significant political shift, had the fingerprints of Mericross somewhere in its origins.

Architects of the New World Order

The Inner Circle of Mericross was composed of the best and brightest minds in every field—scientists, engineers, artists, politicians, patrons, and even supernatural beings. They were visionaries, each bringing their unique skills to the organization’s overarching goals. There were departments dedicated to every conceivable area of influence, from emerging physics to the occult. These departments worked in unison, guided by the belief that the synchronization of all human thought was essential to prevent the human race from falling into decadence and eventual collapse.

One of Mericross's most ambitious goals was the creation of a unified global consciousness—a way to synchronize human thought and ensure that society moved as one cohesive entity. This, they believed, was the only way to save humanity from its own self-destructive tendencies. They pursued this goal with ruthless efficiency, experimenting with mind control, advanced psychological manipulation, and the strategic use of media and culture to shape public perception.

Under the leadership of Aetherix Skycrown, a figure as enigmatic as she was powerful, Mericross reached the zenith of its influence. Skycrown was a master strategist, with a vision for a world ruled not by brute force, but by the subtle manipulation of ideas, beliefs, and desires. She understood that the key to true power lay in the ability to shape reality itself, to bend the will of the masses without them ever realizing they were being controlled.

The Shadowed Empire

Today, Mericross operates as a vast, intricate web of influence that spans the globe. Their operations are cloaked in secrecy, hidden behind layers of deception and false fronts. They control governments, corporations, and entire economies through a combination of strategic alliances, blackmail, and outright coercion. Their resources are limitless, their reach unfathomable.

Yet, despite their immense power, Mericross remains largely unknown to the public. They prefer it that way. The world’s most significant events—the rise and fall of empires, the advent of technological revolutions, and even the emergence of new ideologies—are often the result of careful planning and execution by the Inner Circle. They pull the strings, ensuring that the world moves according to their design, all while remaining invisible to those they control.

The members of Mericross each have their own motivations—some seek wealth, others influence, and still others are driven by darker, more personal desires. But collectively, they work to maintain Aetherix Skycrown’s vision of a world where Mericross holds absolute power. They are the unseen hand that guides the course of history, the shadowed empire that shapes the world in its image.

In this world, there are no accidents, no coincidences—only the will of Mericross, and the inevitable march of history as they have decreed it.
