You might want to re-read Death metal. Perpetua has borrowed energy from the source in the past. I’m fact, the source itself has “ ordered” perpetua to create a multiverse, and then die. Perpetua has been chained up and sealed away by The Hands. The Hands also seem to follow a hierarchy, as well as the chronicler who has recorded many multiverses in his book. And both The Hands and Chronicler seem to be just servants to The Source. Dr.Manhattan has the same energy The Source and The Presence has, connective. Stated on Panel by DC comics Death Metal.
