A Brief History of Reality
In the Beginning
Thousands of entities roamed the Greater Realm of Chaos in which there existed nothing else. The first entity to coalesce into consciousness was Ravina Estarra, the Timewarden. She fashioned the physics of space and encouraged the acceleration of consciousness into the other entities. Next came Elavarion, the Creator. He Crafted the stars and encapsulated the Greater Realms into cohesive bubbles in which each new god (newly coalesced entities) could incubate and grow. Elavrion’s passion led him to the creation of two massive planets that shared orbits around each other. He called them Bastion, and Citadel. He envisioned life and provided the sun and moons to bare his vision. But it was his link to these worlds; each of his legs formed as umbilical cords into the worlds, which fed and nurtured his prized creations. They were wonders to behold.
As the other gods came into their roles, they pleaded with him to experience these two wonders. In response he opened one, Bastion, to their machinations. The gods went wild. Beings of terrible might and beings of love and tenderness were unleashed unto Bastion. The mortals that lived there grew in numbers as the races were born of many gods’ interventions. It came to be known that as the mortal creations became aware, they worshipped the gods that gave them life, the gods that roamed the world. When those mortal lives ended, the essence that had formed of their experiences, the soul, entered the god of whom was worshipped and empowered them. The more followers that worshipped a living god, the more power the god possessed. Thusly, the gods shared miniscule powers to their most devoted encouraging more worship. Angels, demons and denizens of all ilk were crafted with the souls of the fallen and then sent around the globe recruiting more mortals’ worship in a cycle of godly empowerment. Some forced followers and others coerced followers into their hungry, waiting arms. Those that forced found that raw quantities were comparable to that of the coerced followers who made their gods stronger with fewer, yet willing souls. Both factions fell into powerfully frenzied soul-eating drug addictions.
