"In the beginning, before galaxies spun and before even time had breath, there was only the Aeon of Primordia — the age where the first four goddesses awakened from the stillness between nothing and all."
Before light, before time, and before even the concept of "being," there was Silence.
Not the silence of a breath held, but the absolute absence of anything — no shape, no motion, no stars to shine, no darkness to oppose them. Just stillness. The realm of nullity.
From this stillness — without origin, cause, or reason — came the First Pulse.
The First Pulse gave rise to the Four Primordial Sisters, each embodying a fundamental truth not yet understood, each forming spontaneously from the raw will of existence:
1. Elyssara Veritas Essentia, the Goddess of Essence, who became the breath of what is. Her presence gave weight to potential, and through her, the first spark of reality took form.
2. Nytheria Umbral Entropia, the Goddess of Entropy, born as Elyssara's twin, not opposite but mirror. She brought change, motion, destruction — for what is created must be challenged, or it stagnates.
3. Solyra Aeonis Tempra, the Goddess of Time and Infinity, emerged in perfect stillness. Her eyes opened, and with her gaze came linearity. Sequence. Order. History. Future.
4. And lastly, Aurelia Noctessa Lumina, the Goddess of Light, Protection, and Hope, was born not to create, not to destroy, but to preserve. She cradled all existence within her radiant wings, giving warmth to what would otherwise be cold.
Together, the Four formed the Pillars of All Things.
Essence gave it form.Entropy gave it purpose.Time gave it movement.Light gave it meaning.
[The Shaping of Reality]
In silent harmony, they moved as one across the vast nothing, each sowing their influence into the blank sea of potential.
1. Elyssara sculpted the fabric of the universe — the raw material, the foundation of matter and energy. Her hands wove the unseen threads that would become the lattice of space.
2. Nytheria whispered into the void, and black holes bloomed like ink on water. Her entropy seeded singularities, gravity wells, and the laws of collapse. Her darkness was not evil — it was balance.
3. Solyra extended her arms, and with a single breath, time began. The frozen tapestry of Elyssara's creation now moved — ticking forward in silence. Time flowed not as a river, but as an endless, spiraling dance.
4. Aurelia, seeing what her sisters had birthed, wrapped their early cosmos in light. Her glow filled the vast spaces between, ensuring that destruction would never eclipse the beauty of creation.
[On the Nature of the Cosmos]
What was created was not a single world, but a boundless field of infinite regions — the Cosmos.
In this infant reality:
1. Some stars burned too hot and died young.
2. Others lived in quiet solitude for eons.
3. Nebulas danced like colored dreams across the canvas of black.
Time passed — or rather, was allowed to pass — and soon entire galaxies formed, drawn into being by Elyssara's intent, spun by Solyra's clock, fractured by Nytheria's trials, and illuminated by Aurelia's mercy.
Yet still, no life stirred. The universe was still a stage, not a story.
[The First Collapse]
As the sisters looked upon their work, Nytheria grew restless. She saw creation repeating, galaxies spinning too similarly. Patterns became predictable, order too dominant.
In her divine whim, she opened her hands — and black holes spilled across the heavens.
Entire galaxy clusters were devoured. Her intention was not cruelty, but correction. To prune what grows too predictably. And in doing so, she reminded her sisters: Without death, there is no growth.
"Let them fear the void," she spoke."Then they may learn to resist it."
Solyra, ever watchful, wept her first tear — and with it, the concept of causality was born. From this moment forward, every action would have a consequence.
[Time and Space Unfold]
Reacting to the destruction, Elyssara tempered her next creations with stronger essence. She learned. She adjusted. The next galaxies she sculpted were more durable — with gravitational rules, elemental constants, and physical laws.
Solyra refined the flow of time, establishing chronological streams across different parts of the cosmos. Some ran faster. Others crawled. But now the universe had rhythm.
And Aurelia, with silent grace, began marking the stars — constellations of her own making. Symbols of hope. Beacons. So that, in the darkness of Nytheria's voids, there would always be light to follow.
And so, the universe breathed, and time marched, and matter formed, and light guided it all.
But life… had not yet begun.
That would come next — and with it, the Great Experiment.
