Second Time Front
- You may be looking for the Vampire Wars.
The Second Time Front, (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage) remembered by some of its lesser species participants as the eternal war, (COMIC: Doctor Who and the Iron Legion) was a conflict in the War in Heaven bounded within the Second World War across many of the Known Worlds.
The Great Houses created the Second Time Front by modifying the timeline based on the many human "what-if" novels set during that time. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage) This began during the House Military Wave of the same number, (PROSE: The Book of the War) before the horrors of the War had been fully realised. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage)
The result was a vast collection of parallel universes known as the Known Worlds. (PROSE: Warlords of Utopia) However, every change "made things worse", (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage) with Adolf Hitler's Third Reich gaining the advantage in most of the timelines (PROSE: Warlords of Utopia) and creating what Robert Scarratt later called "time-fistulas, pseudo-cancerous Nazi spacetimes, spewing their hateful seed into the infinite." (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage)
House Lineacrux, an elderly member of which served as advisor-emeritus to the Front, attempted to resolve the threat. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage) A Cwej named Abschrift was sent to Germania I and arranged a treaty with August Hitler in exchange for the technology needed to jump between Worlds, which would be used to organise the universes under one banner as the Greater German Reich.
Separately from the World War II universes, another cluster of the Known Worlds was composed of timelines where the Roman Empire never fell. After the accidental discovery of universe-jumping technology in Roma I, these Worlds banded together into the Empire of Empires and declared war against the Greater German Reich. Thanks to Marcus Americanius Scriptor's military strategies, Rome ultimately conquered the German timelines and stamped out Nazism. Scriptor reached an agreement with the advisor that he would patrol the German timelines in exchange for the continued safety and independence of the Roman timelines. (PROSE: Warlords of Utopia)
House Lineacrux would later take credit for this resolution, with Plautus suggesting that his House had intentionally created the Roman universes as part of a "considerable metaphysical counterfource". (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage)
