Looking at my newest creations, I couldn't help but be proud; all that was left was to give their species a proper name. I didn't want to use Lightbringer or anything like that, no I wanted to be a little original with the name. I rubbed my chin, trying to figure out a proper name to give them and then it hit me.
"Rise my creations and allow me to name your kind."
They rose and awaited, wanting to both know their species's name and their purpose.
"You will be called "The Travelers" and two of you shall travel the universe beyond this dimension, doing deeds that will be deemed legendary or mythological, for good or for evil, for chaos or order for the choice is yours."
They looked amongst themselves and once came forward, choosing to speak on their kind's behalf.
"Which of us will do this task you ask of us, and which of us will stay behind."
I looked amongst them knowing that the one who spoke was one of the two I would choose, but who to go with them. Who would be brave enough to undertake such a task? Then one of them approached first, raising their arm in the air, and floated towards my chair.
"I nominate myself to leave."
I smiled at this and opened a rift outside of our realm, far away from Earth, giving them the entire universe to explore.
"Then you and the one brave enough to speak on your kind behalf are the ones to leave, to write your legends and myths amongst the stars."
"So go and write your story, while the remaining will remain here and help manage the realm in case things get out of control or if I need help with designing my next piece to bring into the universe."
They bowed and the two who were not picked, floated to my side one on the left and the other on the right. Before the two could leave, I stopped them as I forgot to give them all proper names.
"Before you leave, I shall give you names, ones that all the universe neigh multiverse shall one day know of, and don't worry my helpers you two will have names as well."
They looked at me, standing in front of the door and I pointed at the first one, the one who first spoke to me.
"You shall be named Areliao and your equal a being brave enough to volunteer to leave his home, his birthplace behind shall be Gabliao."
I then pointed at the gateway.
"You may go, go and spread your might amongst the stars."
They went through going to the other side, to the universe hundreds of years after I left it to create my plane, my monsters.
I then looked at the two at my side, they were looking up at me waiting to know what their names were.
"The one on my left shall be named Urialio and the one on my right shall be named Michyura."
"Both of you shall help both manage this realm and help in creating the monsters that are to come."
They nodded and weirdly I could tell they were happy and more than ready to help.

(Areliao)
My fellow "The Traveler" and I stepped through the portal, ready to explore our creator's universe, the place he was born in, and do what he created us to do. To spread legends and myths of us amongst the stars, amongst the countless other beings in the universe.
When we arrived on the other side, we looked around and saw countless lights, planets, and moons I believe. Gabliao and I looked around amazed at the majesty of the universe, unprepared for the path ahead but knowing we had all the tools needed to accomplish at our creator had asked of us. We wished to test our abilities, I could see that Gabliao agreed, we needed to figure out our limits first to understand what we could do.
We found a rather large planet with two moons on it, we saw the water and plant life on it and well we thought it would be a good place to begin. To test our abilities and show any intelligent or at least somewhat sentient locals our power and create legends of us, perhaps we would be benevolent and help them evolve, create the foundations for society.
We landed on their planet, and the grass resembled our birthplace quite a bit except it was a bit darker, with the trees nearby being far larger than the ones back home. We cleared a large part of the grass, making a nice flat surface for us to start building our temporary base. We touched hands together and began spewing magic into the earth, bringing precious metals from the ground to the surface. We began building a grand tower underneath us, rising us from the surface to the sky.
The tower twisted as the sun shone down on the grey metallic tower that was twisting around, forming a grand building one that all on this planet would look at and spread legend of. It would also serve as a good mana conduit and place to focus our magic on this world, perhaps we could help the locals increase their intelligence and become more civilized.
Once we were done, we both looked at the planet from our tower, and only one thought went through my mind, it was beautiful. I had no idea what Gabliao was thinking, but I hoped they were thinking the same thing, that this planet would be the perfect place for us to begin our work. We would be benevolent to these people and help them become far greater than before and perhaps we would change it up for the next civilization, become beings of terror and malevolence.
Gabliao and I would discuss it, to see which one we would do for we were in this together and it was up to us to decide our future and what our legacy, our legends, and myths would be among the stars and what our creators first impression be on the universe would be.
