Bab 351: The Name of Chaos

Tiamat.

The name itself carries weight—a primordial force that predates understanding, a being of utter chaos.

Her legend is old, older than time itself, and her roots extend into the deepest corners of both mythology and the human psyche.

In Earth's ancient myths, Tiamat is often depicted as a chaos deity, a dragon of the seas whose existence embodies the formless abyss from which all things arise.

She is both the beginning and the end, the primeval source of existence, but also the embodiment of destruction.

In our modern understanding, she's not just a dragon.

She's a symbol of what lies beyond comprehension, of the dark truths that exist behind the neat curtains of civilization.

Tiamat represents that which cannot be controlled, the unruly and unpredictable nature of creation itself.
