The hieroglyphs depicted dozens of bubbles - universes - floating in a ocean of psychedelic fire, tentacles, and eyes.

But there was no mentioning of a wider Omniverse... not even of a Well of Eternity. Just... one Mutliverse.

In such a Multiverse, a pantheon of Gods called the Essentials reigned. Each was less an entity and more an anthropomorphic personification of a certain aspect of reality: Life, death, dreams, nightmares, time, space, etc.

However, the Zhulultu, the first mortal lifeforms to evolve in this Multiverse, eventually grew through technological development and swearing oaths to mysterious, dormant patrons, to challenge and eventually overthrow these Essential gods, enslaving them to the whim of things older and more powerful than even they.
