"Astar created a gigantic sphere of wind around them, and together they plunged into the deep darkness of the sea. It is called 'the Speech of Orobouros to the Gods Astar and Aoros, before the destruction of the world': Of course there are a lot of versions of it, but I'm going to tell you the one a monk of Eirimar once told me. This story is famous all over the world, and has been told from father to sons for thousands of years. Eventually, the Gods decided to awake their first creation, Orobouros, to show him how they improved his home and how nice it was. The world wasn't calm anymore, but it was full of life.

This explosion of life changed the universe: the old peaceful world was now full of little things that were moving, eating, drinking, partying, singing, and who knows what else. Life grew, thousands of species appeared, the world seemed to be in perfect harmony.Ĭhapter 2: The destruction of the world With these neutral zones created, where no Giants could walk without getting attacked by Dragons, the war stopped and an era of peace began. The Dragons did what they were created to do, and separated all the Giant kingdoms from their neighbors. To stop this disaster, the outer Gods shaped powerful celestial creatures, strong enough to beat their sons: this is how Dragons were born. Soon, Giants started to fight, and the war quickly destroyed everything the Gods created. But having multiple creatures in the world had a consequence the Gods never thought of: their creations didn't always like each other. To achieve this immense task, the Four Gods of Elements shaped their new sons : Giants. They became the Four Gods of Elements : Aoros, God of rocks and mountains and Gaea, Goddess of nature (bound by the earth) Alua, Goddess of the seas and oceans and Astar, God of the winds (bound by the sky). With all their new ideas in mind, the four most powerful Gods went down to the world to create the continents and give a new face to their universe. They were so enthusiastic from their first success that they wanted to create more creatures. This is when the Gods decided that even if their creation was great, it could be even better. His slumber was going to last for a very, very long time.

One day, he felt tired and decided to lay down and sleep. In the end, Orobouros became much stronger than any one God.įor a long time, Orobouros swam in the sea, traveling from here to there with no real goal or point, but he was happy. This creature had been created by all Gods together, and received a part of each their power. This is how the world came to be.įirst, there was only an infinite sea, and in it - a single giant snake, Orobouros. Back in time immemorial, and for unknown reasons, all the immaterial Gods decided to create something together, something new, something they could be proud of, something so huge and impressive they would not have been able to achieve alone.
