Before The Gods
''Before there was any talk of Gods, mortals, life or death, there was the eternal void. The stretching silence was only broken by the primordial beings. Temporium, Andro, Xus and the Stars - Together, yet still alone, have existed since before time was begun. Perhaps time had not yet begun. Everything lay dormant in their infinite sleep.''

''The universe itself shuttered when it happened. The flames of Life and the spark of Death had collapsed in on one another, and a being between both was created.''

Androxus, the first to exist.

''They were born into an empty void. They were surrounded by a great nothingness. And yet, they saw only potential in this existence. Reaching out their hands, they moulded what one could only describe as a celestial clay. Finally, they were finished. It was a little sphere, now floating all on its own. And it grew. It continued to swell and swell until it was satisfied. Androxus was now small in comparison to their creation. They were proud.''

''They floated onto the planet, which they decided to name ‘Earth’. It was beautiful, tranquil, breath-taking. But it was missing something. Androxus took two more pieces of clay, and shaped something new out of them They were equals in Androxus’ mind, and he gifted them their very own flames of Life. They clay began to move now. Changing colour, shape and size, they were now alive.''

They were Yenersus and Ilvetorus, the second and third to live.

''Together, they became the Archons. And they created all kinds of life to populate this wonderful place they now called home.''

Humans and Beasts
''Androxus greeted their creations with enthusiasm and love. Yenersus and Ilvetorus were in awe of the world that surrounded them. They immediately began to experiment with their own abilities. Yenersus was the first to be successful. A small animal appeared in her palm. It began to flap and squeal wildly, seemingly thanking her for bringing it into the world. She adored it, naming it an 'owl'.''

''"I shall make more of these things. They will be... beasts. I will try making beasts big and small, weird and wonderful." she laughed, petting the owl affectionately. The jealous Ilvetorus did not share her enthusiasm.''

"Your 'beasts' are fascinating, yes," He announced, "But they lack depth. They are boring. What would they do all that? We need something... smarter. Yes. More like us."

''With these words, a small thing sprung from his palm. The Archons viewed it with even more fascination than the owl had received. It seemed... like them. Smaller, and much weaker, but it looked like them. Walked like them. Sounded like them. It was afraid of the world around it, to which Ilvetorus snorted in laughter.''

"You have nothing to fear, little one," he boasted proudly, "All you see before you is yours. I am your creator, Ilvetorus, and I bestow the Earth upon you as a gift to celebrate for birth. I shall call you... a human. How do you feel about this, 'human'?"

''"You fool!" Yenersus snapped at her brother wildly. "The Earth is not yours to gift. You have promised the thing something you cannot ensure!"''

''Ilvetorus brushed off her words, still enamoured by the movements of his 'human'. He created more now, decreeing that they travel in groups. The humans could not quite understand the complex language the Archons spoke, but they knew that they were to be respected and worshipped. Yenersus, in a wind of rage, dashed across the Earth in search of Androxus.''
