The Constant is a confusing, harsh world which tries to kill you in every way possible.

It is a pocket dimension which was first populated by the Ancients, a now fallen civilization which have died out due to overuse of Nightmare Fuel, unleashing magic and shadow creatures all over the Constant.

During 1906 magician Maxwell and his assistant Charlie were taken to The Constant after failing one of their magic tricks involving the shadow creatures, accidentally causing the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake.

Since then Maxwell and Charlie ruled The Constant, with Maxwell kidnapping other people into the dimension while Charlie was controlling the shadow creatures in the darkness.

However, Maxwell has been dethroned by a scientist named Wilson after Wilson completed all 5 of Maxwell's trials. During that brief amount of time Wilson ruled The Constant, trying to find a way out for him and anyone else who was trapped, however he failed and now Charlie was the one ruling The Constant, not planning to let anyone go.

When Wilson got banished by Charlie back into the Main Land he met Maxwell who helped him build a Florid Postern, which allowed every person in The Constant to reunite.
