CHAPTER 17: STORY OF A FALSE BEGINNING

Long before creatures understood time and space, there was a sphere of pure, uncontrolled creativity. Within this primordial expanse emerged the enigmatic entities known as the Mother and Father, created by forces cloaked in mystery, much like the universe they inhabited. The universe was a patchwork of bright stars, swirling galaxies, and pulsating dimensions. Countless planes of existence spread endlessly, each more breathtaking than the last. In their unlimited imagination, the Mother and Father created a plethora of entities—dragons whose scales shimmered like suns, creatures of unmatched strength, people endowed with curiosity, devils emitting chaos, and planet eaters wandering the cosmos with insatiable hunger.

The Mother, a nurturing spirit, took delight in the production of life and beauty. Her touch brought life to every corner of the cosmos, creating lush landscapes and intelligent species. The Father, who represents order and control, established the principles that govern these creations, restoring equilibrium amidst the chaos and creating peace. For ages, they coexisted peacefully, their conflicting characteristics complimenting one other. The universe thrived under their dual guidance, evolving into a masterpiece of order and chaos, creation and destruction, life and death. However, the blissful era of co-creation between Mother and Father was not to last. Over time, the delicate balance they had maintained began to deteriorate. Subtle disputes on the direction of their creations turned into heated debates. The Father championed structure and order, believing that turmoil would destroy everything they had accomplished.

"The cosmos demands structure and rules," thundered the Father one day, his voice echoing throughout the heavens. "Without them, chaos will engulf our creations." The Mother, whose presence was a calming brightness in the nothingness, responded with equal sincerity. "Life thrives in turmoil. Structure may provide order, but it stifles creativity and progress.

Their offspring, who witnessed the intensifying arguments, recognized an imminent schism. They recognized that their parents' disagreements were more than just intellectual differences, but fundamental clashes of essence. As tensions rose, the children were forced to choose between the Mother's ideal of unbridled creativity and the Father's quest of meticulous order.

The five offspring, each fearsome and distinct, formed two factions based on their ideas. Amara, Kael, and Liora, like the Mother, found beauty in diversity and possibility in disorder. Zarek and Thalos, dedicated to the Father, saw order as the foundation for stability and predictability. Amara, the eldest, had the ability to create and sustain life. Her creations, which were inextricably linked to the Mother's essence, grew into vivid, lush kingdoms teeming with a variety of living forms. She, like her mother, was a fervent advocate for unrestricted creation. The second-born, Kael, governed the four raw elements: fire, water, earth, and air. His mastery unleashed galaxies-spanning storms and planet-shattering earthquakes, exemplifying the Mother's wild vision's boundless potential. Liora, the third sibling, exuded optimism and brilliance. Her intellect could heal and inspire, and she joined her brothers in believing in the Mother's ability to develop and transform in the face of disaster. Zarek, the fourth child, possessed tremendous physical strength and resilience. He respected the Father's discipline and structure, believing that order preserved the universe's integrity. Thalos, the youngest, had a sharp brain and strategic sense. Devoted to the Father's ideas, he planned sophisticated moves that could reverse the tide of any fight, believing that structure alone could unleash creation's full potential.

As these siblings aligned with their respective parents, the stage was set for a cataclysmic encounter with far-reaching consequences.

The final rupture resulted in a violent fight that shook the cosmos. What started as a major argument between the Mother and Father quickly turned into all-out battle. Reality itself shook as their ancestors unleashed unparalleled power in an epic fight. The peaceful sphere of creation becomes a war. Stars exploded, galaxies collided, and dimensions collapsed. The forces of creation battled violently with those of order.

Amara created enormous forests and beautiful landscapes to bind and overwhelm her enemies. Her crafts, infused with nurturing energy, responded quickly to the turmoil of battle. Kael summoned elemental fury, unleashing galaxies-spanning storms and planet-shattering earthquakes. His grasp of raw materials made him a powerful opponent.

Liora's bright brilliance dazzled and bewildered her foes, shining through the darkness of war to inspire and empower supporters. Zarek's raw might felled mountains and destroyed worlds, representing the power of order and control. Thalos' strategic acumen resulted in sophisticated strategies that turned the tide of war. His careful actions were designed to ensure success for the Father's faction.

One major conflict took place in the Nexus of Realms, a confluence point of multiple dimensions where the Mother and Father's energies collided, deciding the fate of countless planets. The towering form of Iradin, God of War, led the charge for the Father's side. His roars resonated throughout reality, terrifying his opponents. He battled with Kael, whose elemental anger matched Iradin's brute might, and their fight sent shockwaves through realities.

Deianira, the Goddess of Destruction, a figure both dark and sublime, fought alongside Amara. Despite Deianira's ability to annihilate large areas with a single gesture, Amara's resilience and ability to recreate life from destruction's ashes made her a deadly opponent.

Zanara, the Goddess of Creation, brilliant and life-giving, fought the forces of destruction. She healed the wounded and summoned new companions from within the fabric of reality, a beacon of hope in the midst of turmoil. The two Valkyries, graceful yet determined, moved with precision across the battlefield. As arbiters of fate, they led the spirits of the deceased, balancing life and death amidst the carnage.

This cosmic conflict ended in a decisive and horrific combat. The Mother and her three children realized their full power, resulting in a merger of creation and life that overwhelmed the Father's faction. Amara's life-giving force, Kael's elemental fury, and Liora's dazzling light merged with the Mother's caring essence, creating a tidal wave of power that no enemy could overcome.Recognizing the futility of never-ending struggle, the Father and his followers were shut away. An spell made from the Mother's supporters' combined energies imprisoned them in a place beyond time and space, preventing them from disrupting the cosmic equilibrium.

After the Father was defeated, the cosmos fell into a fragile state of calm. The triumphant Mother and her children stood amid the wreckage of battle, their hearts aching with the toll of conflict. They had triumphed, but at a high cost. Worlds lay shattered, with countless lives lost.

The sealed Father and his disciples were a striking reminder of the high cost of conflict. In a time of sorrow and reflection, the Mother promised that one day they will return. However, this promise remained unfulfilled. As time passed, the Mother and the old gods faded, their essences blending with the universe they created.

The unmet promise lingered with each successive generation of gods and beings. The Morus (God of Death), Iradin (God of War), Deianira (Goddess of Destruction), Zanara (Goddess of Creation), and the Valkyries all shaped the universe in their own unique way. However, the disappearance of the ancient gods created a hole that could never be replaced.

In this emptiness, a figure known as the One True King appeared, promising freedom from suffering to all races and species. This vow provided hope in the face of uncertainty. However, the One True King vanished without a trace, allowing the universe to sink into perpetual conflict.

Without the Mother and Father's oneness and leadership, the universe descended into an everlasting war. Demons, humans, gods, dragons, and a variety of other creatures competed for supremacy and survival. The heritage of creation and destruction, order and chaos, continued to influence their fates.
