In the beginning, there was nothing.
Then, in some way not even the ancient Gods know, the world was created.
And then, life arose, and spread far and wide.
And when the first sentient beings arose, thoughts arose with them.
The world knowing itself made it more real.
Mortals understood the importance of Knowledge, and when that importance accumulated into energy, a Goddess emerged.
Mortals understood that they needed empathy, kindness, and when that empathy gathered energy, another Goddess emerged.
It is not known which Gods came first or last. It is not known whether they came from the earth or just the thinking of mortals. It is only known that they are concepts.
Gods and deities feed and grow stronger with their concepts.
The world was good.
Until it became neutral.
Mortals began to see, do, and feel bad things.
Fear, Anger, Greed.
With greed came wars.
