The World, Its Creation and Its Humanities

The World, Its Creation and Its Humanities

Nobody is quite sure that the universe looked like before the Creator came into place. Some believed there was nothing, some believe he just lit up the darkness, but most came to the conclusion that when he came to this universe, a giant ball of indestructible material was here already. The Creator found it and proceeded to carve it hollow. 

Then, using his powers, he sculpted a magnificent column and decorated it with beautiful alcoves of statues. He split the now hollow ball in two and continued his work. He painted the inside a beautiful dark blue, then poked holes in the walls and painted them in a shining, nearly glowing, gold. Then he hollowed out the statues, and placed never ending fountains in the recesses of the uneven top and placed the column in the very center. This became Columni. When he closed up the ball, he had such a tough time looking into it, so he cut out a large window, and made it glow more than any of the others, which became the sun. From the window he observed how on the top of Columni started to grow with beautiful green. Some places were too hot, so they turned into sand, some of them were too cold, so the water turned to ice.  

So beautiful it was to him that he decided to sculpt various beings. 

First were the fish, the whales, sharks, crabs and what have you.

Second were the birds, whom fed off the new plants and some the fish.

Finally, he created the beasts. Deer, cows, animals innumerable, which fed on everything else. 

For two hundred years, which has been dubbed The Wake, the animals and other beasts reigned over Columni, until finally he found it necessary to create Humanity in all of its glory. He made fifty Men and fifty Women, then called forth a servant, Hestia, and told her that she was the goddess of the realm. This is known as the end of year 0. He then left her with the hundred babies and a scroll he wrote, called the Scroll of Creation, a scroll of destiny. This scroll foretold prophecies and told the lives of everyone who would ever be in existence. It was, if you will, a script with all those who would live and die the actors and actresses. Hestia was incompetent to say the extent of her power. Benevolent though she was, she in no form was ready for the great powers her master had left her with, and for the existence of Columni, she would stay that way. She was a great mother, however, and took care of the children until the year 16. They wed one another with bonds of true love that could only be brought with godly power and together, they formed the first and oldest city, Herek. 

Thus ends the beginning of Columni, and the start her glorious history.
