#3 - Absolutely Nothing - The Bubble Existence

Aaalllright now. So it is yet another day, time to get personal! Because my short-lived February vacation has now come to a close. It was fun while it lasted, except for the migraine I had Saturday night (why can't those things hit at more convenient times?), but that one didn't last long so its all good.
How about instead of rambling on about myself, however, I turn to that which has been annoying me for quite some time now, something I like to call the Bubble Existence.
So as you all know by now (you better know at least...), I am a Creator. In my story I have, however, come to a...bump. A plot bump, so to speak.
I have the protagonist Canus Gris, I have the antagonist Elba, and I have this slight problem of Elba being godlike and Canus being...not. He needs something to change in order to possibly go up against this Elba, and for that I have come up with the Bubble Existence. But my problem is...why? Why does he go there, he is led into said existence by a certain character of noble motives, and yet Elba also wants him to go there for not-noble motives. But I DONT KNOW WHY! I have the players, I have the settings, I have the motives, I just don't have the reason.

So instead of thinking out loud here, I will explain the Bubble Existence. In my world Existence is made up of a basic five planes, it is nice, it is ordered. But this Bubble Existence is just as it sounds, a pocket of Existence within Existence, undetected and unknown to anyone who hasn't been in it to begin with. Within this specific Bubble is a sort of frozen time-space, but not really, because time is still moving. What I mean is...it is a section of time within an older part of my story that is kinda continuing on within it's own closed circut here.
But Alas, this is going to have to wait for another day, my time here is limited (oh how I despise time).
More on The Bubble Existence later
