Children of Light: Valoven

ลำดับตอนที่ #2 : Priorum (I)

     In the beginning, there was only light. And for millennia, the universe sat still. Then there was consciousness. And for millennia, it drifted aimlessly through space and time. Then there were more of them, each beginning to take shapes and forms in all variety, imbued by the essence of the various nature of the mind. And through the culmination of immense and infinite power, the Mielil were born. 

     Walking through the universe in its most holy and ever-lasting radiant forms, the Mielil shaped and set in motion the tangible worlds and the inception of time. Their embrace spanned beyond billions of galaxies, their breath funneled hurricanes of nebulae, their heat ignited the birth of stars, and their touch sent tremor that teared worlds apart and reshaped them into their liking. 

     And for millennia, the wheel of the universe spun and spun, aimlessly and lifelessly. Until there came the one who gave life to all.

     At the heart of the universe, where light emerged, the Mielil gathered their power and created Lahya, the world gifted with all blessings. There was fire, there was water, there was air, there was land, there was light, there was darkness, and above all else, there was magic that bound them all together. And for millennia, Lahya stood as a gleaming trophy for the existence of the Great and Powerful, a showcase of their immeasurable power. 

     But all became foul when Himoil, the Miel spirit of desire, stepped out of the void. With his existence came forth the power which gradually corrupted others of his kind. Rage and conflict started brimming. And in their desire to conquer, the Mielil waged battles against one another for absolute power over Lahya.

     With infinite power came infinite drive to conquest, foreseeing how the Mielil would tear the universe apart in their awakened desire towards destruction, Tahtuil, the Miel spirit of volition, one who remained unwaivered by the poisonous influence of Himoil, called forth Rauhan, the Miel spirit of peace. Together, they banished all Mielil into the Realm Beyond, where they would no longer have power to directly reach Lahya and its universe, never to return. 

     But in their moment of departure, Elema, the Miel spirit of life, the last to step into the gate to the Realm Beyond, relinquished her essence as a most holy blessing for Lahya. For such a world without life would be a world without appreciation. The Great and Powerful would not be great and powerful if there is no one to look up to them. 

And there began life on Lahya and all that are tied to its fate.
