THE BIRTH OF TRANSFORMERS
Before the dawn of time, The One, also known as the Source and the sentient core of the Universe, is an extra-dimensional entity in whom order and chaos exist in perfect harmony. The One created the astral being Unicron, which was then split in half - one remained Unicron while the other became Primus.

While Primus embodied order and justice upon his birth, Unicron was left with chaos and evil, which gave him a sense of fallen existence. Thus began the longtime battle between the two. Their rampaging feud brought them to the physical world, where they were accidentally trapped inside metallic elements - which eventually paved their way to become gigantic robots. Then Primus turned into the planet Cybertron and created the 13 original Primes, who were each infused with a fragment of Primus' life essence known as AllSpark, to help himself in his war against Unicron. When the war was over, Unicron was sucked into a black hole and vanished from reality. Meanwhile, Primus entered his eons-long slumber, and the original 13 Primes began to create other robots. Thus began the story of the Transformers.
