Foundation X financed the development of technology that brings people back to life, NEVER. As well as the Gaia Memory, which transforms humans using the Earth's memory. They probably financed the Zodiarts Switch, and the Core Medals too.

Franz Oberhauser: You came across me so many times and yet you never saw me. Le Chiffre, Greene, Silva...
James Bond: All dead.
Franz Oberhauser: Yeah, that's right. A nice pattern developed: you interfered in my world, I destroyed yours. Or did you think it was coincidence that all the women in your life ended up dead? Vesper Lynd, for example. She was the big one. Has he told younote  about her? And then of course, your beloved M, gone forever. Me. It was all me, James. It's always been me. The author of all your pain.

Archangel Michael: Not like you, right? Lucifer the rebel, deciding you can do a better job than Dad? You know, I wonder how you got that idea in your head in the first place.
Lucifer Morningstar: Right, that's your play, is it? Taking credit for my failed rebellion? By all means, it's yours.
Michael: Now, you see, that is the best part. All I did was plant the idea. You're the one who chose to do it. You still get to keep all the blame yourself.
Lucifer: Your lies are so tedious, Michael.
Michael: Not as tedious as your denial. 'Cause I'm not lying now, brother, and I think, deep down, you are realizing that. And once you realize that, you're gonna wonder maybe it wasn't just the rebellion that was my suggestion. What else? What about your little sexcapade in the garden, or, oh, your little vacation here to Earth.
Lucifer: That's impossible.
Michael: It was quite easy, actually. All it took was a little whisper here, a carefully orchestrated coincidence there, and your pathological self-absorption, of course. Voilà! All your idea.
Lucifer: Why?
Michael: Because all our lives, you thought that you were better than me. The great Lucifer Morningstar, but you're not, are you? You're just Samael.

Even the Machine Empire's Führer Hell Saturn has a weakness. That is the wicked God of the Sun, whom he worships and fears.

Heh... My time to depart from this world has come... But remember well, young knight, even if I die, the Gears will not! As long... as long as that man... still... lives...
Justice to Ky Kiske, Guilty Gear

But the Filth is only the transmitted, not the transmitter - the excremental shadow of something else. What dreamt it? What stirs and sputters and lurks, as big as planets, in the infinite shade between cancer cells? Have you seen them, Sweetling? Have they noticed you noticing them? Once you see the hungry sky, it sees you. All futures point to a stratosphere of tentacles.
The Buzzing, The Secret World

Did you truly think you could defeat me? Your powers were a gift from me. It was I who possessed the serpent that bit your hand! It was I who corrupted the Great Devourer and set him against you! All that has happened was by my design! The Devourer was merely a pawn, set in motion by me to provide a worthy vessel for my return. Now, at last, I have such a vessel. I am complete!
The Overlord to Garmadon, Ninjago, "Dragon Form"

White Diamond: Everyone knows that all of this is because of me!
Spinel: No, it's me! I tried to wipe his friend's memories so he would die alone on a barren world!
White Diamond: That was because you were angry with Pink! And if Pink hurt you, it was because I hurt her, like I hurt Yellow and Blue and Steven and everyone in the entire universe! This is all my fault!
