As soon as Apokolips left their dimension, the Fourth World was in its final moments. With New Genesis destroyed and the Final Gods effectively interlopers, the only thing keeping the realm alive was its connection was the essence of Darkseid, coalesced into the last of the Infinity Gems. When Thane absorbed the power of the Entropy Stone, the final tether was lost and the Fourth World collapsed in on itself.
While the Fourth World was birthed in fire, it died in unbearable silence.
In its wake was a spiritual vacuum that all supernatural beings seemed to feel. The universe had lost something important and few would realize what that was. This agonizing loss lasted for only a few moments before it was replaced by a feeling of revelation. In the dimensional void came forth great prismatic lights and a new dimension screamed into existence. When it coalesced, the differences were clear - where the Fourth World was a black void, this one was filled with light. An endless shifting, multicolored nebula filled space, covering everything in a surreal, eternal, glow.
The Fifth World had come.
Ejected from the dying prior World, the Starlit Citadel found itself in the dimension they were always meant to inhabit. The crystalline space station where the gods dwell looked even grander as it refracted the hues of the polychromatic nebula around it. Here the Final Gods - the Champion, the Savant, the Sentinel, the Time Master, Thunderstrike, and Umbra the Afterworld - found their home.
On the other end of the dimension lay a desolate world even more sinister looking than Umbra itself. A rainy, rocky world that seemed to drain the color from the space around it, turning the normally prismatic nebula into darker shades of purple and red. This was Wraithworld, and it was the home of The Destroyer, the Final God of Entropy.
