Gan rose from the Prim (inferred to as the darkness behind everything) and created the universes and infinite alternate universes that the Dark Tower (the central universe in The Dark Tower series) holds in place. In the cosmology of the Stephen King multiverse, Gan is that which the High Speech term "The White" refers to. He is described as speaking "through the voices of the Can-Calah who men call angels," and as "denying the Crimson King and denying Discordia itself." The being is first mentioned by name in Song of Susannah, the sixth installment in The Dark Tower series. Gan is almighty, being far stronger than IT and the Turtle. King's inspiration for the word remains unknown, but he may have taken it from a Hebrew word, which means, "garden." Gan's role in the novels is very much in line with the concept of God. His wife is Bessa, who manifested herself as a rose. He is emerged from the primal chaos of the Prim, manifested himself as the Dark Tower in Mid-World. Gan also known as God or the Other is the creative overforce in the cosmology of Stephen King's universes.
