Theme story1

In the beginning, the universe did not exist. There were two realms, planes of magical energy, and these were all that existed. One, the Realm of Chaos, never became more because it changed too often. Nothing can be built if it ceases to exist almost immediately. The other, the Realm of Order, never progressed because nothing changed. Everything remained the same, in the exact same pattern it was always in.

This was how things existed for eons and eons. Then, due to reasons yet unknown, the Realms partially merged into a third realm. With this merger came a realm full of what some call Ordered Chaos. The mixture of the two extremities allowed for the creation of the universe, with chaos changing what order sought to stabilize.

This universe started out as a void, full of magical energies. Slowly, two separate entities began to form, each an extension of the two forces creating the universe. Mitrill, the supreme deity of Order, and Balthildis, the supreme deity of Chaos. As could be expected, these two forces immediately went to work against each other. The universe was quickly filled with all manners of things. Balthildis introduced light and heat, forces that can bring changes on other forms of matter in this universe. Mitrill counters with the introduction of a vacuum in space, and coldness, seeking to make the universe uniform. Mitrill brings about the planets in their stable orbits, and Balthildis places stars in the center of their systems, bringing the planets slowly towards their own doom. So the war continued for many, many ages, until the introduction of life.

Life occurred as an accident. Neither deity had any direct hand in its creation, but as their war continued, a fluke of sorts occurred. Just as the realms had merged long ago for no reason and spawned the deities, the universe randomly aligned in just the right pattern for a spark of life to appear. This spark first appeared on the planet now known as Alora, and for many years the deities in their war never noticed.
