Before the beginning, there was nothing, not even a place or time for there to be nothing. However, because the universe prefers to exist rather than not exist, from that nothing came slightly more than absolutely nothing. And so, there was an infinite expanse of void, infinitesimally tenuous existence, infinitely large.
However, It is a fact that every singular thing, that is everything that can be identified as one whole, has a spirit of that embodies it's truest nature. Because this void's only reason for existence was to simply exist, it's spirit was one that embraced the creation of existence. The spirit of the void created many other spirits in it's quest for creation, by dividing it's self into distinct regions- a place to the left, the place above, and so on, with each new place, each new, lesser void, gaining it's own spirit. But though the void spirit worked, and it's creations worked, there was one flaw that became more evident as time went on. All of these spirits knew no new existence, as they where all from the same void and the same origin. The void spirit grew worried that all of infinite time may be filled with the same creation in the same void, and that this would be no better than absolute nonexistence.
Thus the spirits came to a council and decided to find something new to create. For many eons, the spirits of creation invented many strange and exotic things, many of which we can hardly begin to imagine, and all of them utterly unlike matter, the spirits, space, or time. through all this time, none of these attempts where stable, and every one of them dissipated back into the void. Finally, after unmeasurable time, two new forms of existence where created, matter and energy. the two worked together and could never be destroyed, only transformed into one annother.
With a tool to finally begin true creation, something new and wonderful, the Void spirit set the lesser spirits out to create in the endless universe granting them the powers of godhood, but most importantly, gave each spirit a name. This name was the first thing to differentiate any two spirits, so that each realm of each spirit would be unique.
The Creation spirits went separately into the void, each one to create a single star to dwell in, and under that star a world full of lesser spirits and creations of matter. One particular sprit, named Sol, created it's star-home and it's first planets. One world was scorched by the mighty well of the star. Some worlds where distant and cold. But one world... one world was unique.
Well, how's that?
