Fiction

Precursor World

In the final battle between the Primus Vanguard and the Specters, Yellow Order leader Yellow Splendid Convoy unleashed the Yellow Matrix's Star Power along with the other six Lights to annihilate the Specters, which had the secondary effect of combining their multiverse into a single multicolored world. Later, Primus, driven mad by grim visions of an apocalyptic future, demanded the Yellow Matrix so that he might destroy the universe; Splendid declined and returned to the Yellow Planet with her Matrix.
