In a distant part of the universe, a voice spoke, “How is the situation?” Another figure replied, “It's quite dire; many are wounded and several are in critical condition. It may have spread to other universes as well.” “This is concerning,” said the first figure. “We need heroes now more than ever. Prepare for the activation of Project Imortel, initially only within our universe which has been hit hardest.” “I understand, but Death won't be pleased with this decision.” “I don't care; it must be done,” said the first figure resolutely. “Death will eventually accept that this is necessary.”
