24These gods got to work along with the old. 25Rourk, the two-headed wolf of Division, created a mighty glowing ball from its chest to orbit Anchor Rock and give it life-giving heat and light. 26Orbiting this was a creation of Fieras, Aster. 27Cromwell graced Aster with an ocean, filled with many creatures. 28When the GGGG created Mono, a great rock which eats other great things, Fieras shrouded Aster in a shield of fire. 29Li created the Ice Forest, gracing the Void with its presence which twinkles in the lights of Aster and Rourk's Heart. 30Li also graced Cromwell with the Kraken; 31Cromwell made a second, smaller than the first, but perhaps the two could make more as all beasts do. 32The Gods also dealt with lesser beings. 33Discord and Rourk made the Dragen and the Watchers, giving them islands and giving the Dragen their wheed, 34which they make into food and the drink their whole culture is based around. 35Komote taught the Void Goblins their tricks, gaining their awe and worship. 36Discord, jealous of Komote and Fieras, set them 37on fire; this was ineffective. 38The one known as Grob forged the Binary Codex in this time, 39keeping it secret as it made Mono the Eater of Worlds. 40Ort, ager to make the universe right, made Anchor Rock harder to move; 41Pisanrio harmed itself trying to shift the Rock.
42And so ended the First Age, when the gods cared for nothing but themselves and made whole worlds with a thought. 43Already, they were feeling that they had to exert effort to do tasks. The mortals began to be the main force in the universe.--
