In many of the novels and short stories written and co-written by [[Stephen King]], there is the concept of a '''multiverse''' created by the author himself.

==History==
In the beginning, there was a magical presence known as the [[Prim]], also referred as the "darkness behind everything", which [[Gan]] arose. When [[All-World]] was created, Gan appeared in a metaphysical form as a giant edifice known as the [[Dark Tower]] alongside six [[Beam]]s that are protected by twelve Guardians.

It was said that [[Maturin]] the Turtle had a stomach ache that vomited out a universe. This universe is the location of the [[Keystone Earth]], which is a reflection of the "[[Wikipedia:Reality|real world]]" and also includes a fictional version of Stephen King himself. It is the location of the [[The Rose|Rose]] too.

Some people have the ability to travel between universes by "going [[w:c:darktower:Todash|Todash]]", other ways are through rare artifacts like the [[Wizard's Rainbow]], the [[The Talisman|Talisman]] and the [[Lil Pink]].

Gan uses Stephen King as a facilitator to tell the tale of the Gunslinger, so [[Roland Deschain]] could successfully go about his task of reaching the Tower. If the author died before completing his task, Roland would not have "known" how to further proceed on his quest to the Tower and, without any significant remaining opposition, the [[Crimson King]] would have finally toppled the Dark Tower and initiating [[Discordia]], the event which all universes would have ceased to exist, as there would be no story created.
