[PBEM] The Three Aeons - Day 1

Lonely after searching the cosmos for life, Elora takes dust from the stars and forms a sphere that she breathes life unto.

While there had until that time been neither stars, nor dusts, nor spheres, Elora, first of the goddesses, takes the dust in her hands, and the stars begin to shine in the heavens, distant but beauteous in their wonder, and there was a world. It was a lifeless rock at this point, but the world is now in existence, and a perfect sphere it is as well.

AND lo! The heavens pulled like no time before with forces yet unnamed! Wrenched, from the fabrics of the fractured void is born the titan Tiitloc: the son of shattered veils. Bound by matter, the deposed Tiitloc subjects himself to (the force known as gravity) and slumbers at the center of an azure sun.


In the center of the void a giant star, dwarfing all the others flares to life. Since neither gravity, nor mass yet exist, both the world and the sun merely sit there, but the light radiated from the sun and the heat cause the world on one side to become slightly warm, and the other side to become slightly hot.

Time passes, and this increases but not significantly, but eventually one half of the world begins to glow with the embers of lava as the rock melts, though only a few inches at this point, whilst the other half of the world is denied Tiitloc's light.

Then, as Tiitloc himself begins to slumber into the sun, a burst of activity takes place, initially the world hurtles towards the sun, about to consume it, only to miss and sling shot around into an orbit. The orbits are tight at first, causing the entire world to become almost a second star as it radiates the heat, but the orbit slowly becomes more stable until the world itself begins to rotate around equally heating both sides, cooling it.

In the process, mountains and valleys have been forged, albiet very rough ones. The center of the world now has its own molten core.
