Summary
In a shattered timeline where the War of the Ring never begins, a desperate Sauron performs a catastrophic ritual, unleashing not mere shadow, but the primordial Discord of the Void itself. This anti-music manifests as a zombie plague that corrupts the very essence of Arda, transforming Elves, Dwarves, Men, and even the mighty Istari into uninhibited geniuses of destruction. From Gandalf to Galadriel, and all the Dark Lord's own forces, no one is safe from the ravenous hordes. As Middle-earth dies, replaced by a kingdom of the damned, only small, scattered bands of survivors remain to witness the horror...
But the silent screams of the trapped souls have not gone unheard in the Undying Lands. Confronting their greatest failure, the fourteen Valar and their two greatest Maiar prepare to intervene directly for the first time since the First Age. Their mission: to re-weave the Song of Creation itself, save who could be saved, or watch Eru’s world be utterly unmade. With the fact that they could bring no army and would have to rely on their world-shattering powers, the stage is set for a conflict that would prove to be just as difficult as the War of Wrath in it's own way...

Summary
Centuries after the departure of the Elves, the slumber of the Dwarves and Ents, and the fading of magic, Men rule Middle-earth, their empires built on technology and industry, their civilizations advanced as they developed their own philosophies, laws, and politics. While the truths of the ancient ages have been long forgotten, the Valar, ever-watchful from Aman prepare themselves, executing efforts unknown to the people who now "rule" over Arda, seemingly unchallenged, for the shadow of Morgoth stirs beyond the Void and when he regains his full power, the End begins.
The prophesied Dagor Dagorath will come—the Last Battle that will devastate Arda so it may be made anew by the Second Music of the Ainur. Centuries have passed, but the peace that has settled will soon end as the forces of light and darkness will clash for the fate of Arda. Thus shall Men, and the other Children of Ilúvatar, along with the Ainur, face their greatest challenge tested, for their choices will decide whether Arda is remade in harmony or lost to ruin. The stage is set for the greatest unity ever to clash against the full might of the Dark Powers, all while the final doom awaits...
