All these details are very appreciated, I'm in a planeswalking mood these days ^ ^

Well, at least the cause of the nerfing is quite believable. Any power is inherently limited no matter how great, recklessly draining it for ages is bound to end up badly, and it's obvious the whole planeswalking community would be massively weakened once they can no longer tap into the Aether.

Its looks a lot like the "Dancers at the End of Time" books. Humanity as a whole became a species of nigh-omnipotent reality warpers by directly tapping into the prime universal energies. Off course, after eons of messing around on a mind-boggling scale just to kill boredom, the universe started to run out of energy and fall appart. There was obviously not much that could be done at this point, but the writer managed to avoid a bad ending by introducing the concept of multiverse : an infinite number of universes to tap into guaranties mankind an infinite supply of energy, so they can forever to whatever they want without any consequence. Hard to say what's the moral of the story here ^ ^;
