"While a beautiful sight, I must declare it impossible for the suns and world to be regenerating each other. Please adjust them appropriately."

[Demonic Spoon]

The Stareater was old when the world was newborn. When the Sunbeetle broke open the cage of dark imprisoning the earth's heart of fire and stole the sun, pushing it high, high into the sky, where the Stareater could not reach. The Stareater was shimmering with fury, and even as it desperately tried to repair the hole in the nets of darkness, even more sparks of fire slipped through, burning it in their passing. The stars flickered into the sky, joining the Sunbeetle, gathering around the bigger light as was in their nature.
- From the Scrolls of Night, Apocryphal

The Hollow Dreamer chews her way into reality, flickering rift of unreality snapping shut behind her. She chitters curiously as she surveys the raw stuff of creation.

DISGUSTING

The Hollow Dreamer leaps through the shadow spaces between the light, and appears behind Mana, entwined in the embrace of the First Precept, and then devours Mana, paralytic poison pumped into their elemental form.

Hollow Dreamer screamed as the painful light of the suns crawled their way into her eight eyes. She devoured them, and the sun seed with them. They digested and wasted away and died within her stomach.

Darkness: If killing Mana is not in time to stop the abominations of light, then EAT THE SUNS. [Titanic Intervention: 1 Death + 6 Essence + Rebuilding]

Hollow Dreamer ate the sunseed, and it was delicious. She herself then became the sun, an anti-sun of darkness that smothers candles and other lights with the darkness radiating from her umbral bulk

Darkness: Make self sun of Darkness [Create Sun on Sun-Seed: 1F+1S+4EE+Rebuilding]

Darkest night mated with burning fire, Hollow Dreamer twined with Volcanic Midan.

Spiders: Mate with Midan, birthing a spider made of fire.

While her first child was born, Hollow Dreamer dreamed of better things, and designed herself a perfect consort, weaving him from the raw stuff of reality flying all around.

(Divine Edict)

The Powers of the World born from Magic and Mysteries will be bound by words. Words will be spoken, words will be written. Words will limit the Miracles available in the hand of Mortals.

The Seven Words that must not be known will be the keystones holding Magic together. For each time a Word will be discovered by Mortals, Magic shall grow stronger. And when the Last Word will be known, Magic as it was known shall run wild and most powerful for one cycle, and then end forever. Each Word discovery will usher a cycle of magic, and the Seven Words will bear such power that writing or speaking one of the Seven Words will cause weak mortals to spontaneously combust into primordial dust.

The discovery of the Seven Words will always follow the order they were ushered into the world. The first discovered word will always be the Word for the Beginning, and following Words will follow the order until the Last Word. Attempting to teach one of the Words to a Mortal in the wrong order will cause the Mortal to understand the Word that should have been discovered instead.

Languages shall be stronger in order of apparition. There is currently the first tongue, and most divine: "English", which dictates reality and its meta-nature in the [IC]. "English" will be the strongest tongue, and words written in "English" will hold unparalleled magic power compared to all other languages.

As more languages are born, new ones will be born weaker. The old and forgotten tongues will bear vast amount of power compared to the newest and modern tongues, until eventually, newer tongues no longer hold any power.

Addendum: "Engrish" shall be the most reviled of all languages, and grant power at the cost of great insanity.

Once again, golden trumpets appear on the tattered banner. Then two rows of trumpets down a hallway. An object comes down that hallway-a heraldic dragon. It grows larger and larger until a figure on its back can be seen, something that looks like a patchwork-quilt cut out of a knight. Both figures finally look like they are standing in a foreground, jumping out as one into the new Galaxy.

Name: Legion One
Divine rank: (Major God)
Specialty: Glory
Spheres (limit 2): Conquest, Marriage
Description/background: A quilted knight riding on a heraldic dragon. The knight is a literal patchwork quilt, with two hands that end in mitten like arms and boot like legs. In his arm is a long golden horn he wields like a sword. The dragon is a deep dark black, with a two dimensional appearance despite being in a three dimensional world. His horn sounds celebration for the legal and romantic bonding of couples, entirely to counter "the cow's" influence on this world. When not busy with that, he develops Mortals towards conquering the surrounding nature, in additional to appropriate civilized targets.

Hollow Dreamer carefully examines and unfurls a tangled knot of web, before prophesying:

Legion One shall marry a spider before the moons number three.

[Ardent Debater]

Deep in the featureless void, where not the faintest star flickers nor scantest soil stays, there is Silence, and the Silence is. Then, the Titans, eleven entities of unparalleled power, ushered in to cultivate creation from the seed which they've been given. The Silence that is, is now was, and never again shall be. The void remains still no longer, it is perforated by the light of the swirling twin suns, punctured by the presence of the intricate ring of spheres, brought into being by one, and one alone. It is a new world, perhaps aesthetically pleasing to the one who devised it, but to the Ten who had no say, it is an atrocity, for the foundation of the world was ushered in by another's hands, and the first creation cannot be undone. The Ten voice their disdain, and the One who sculpted the shape of the seed utters his defense.

Mayhap creation would've been undone, eviscerated in a storm of unthinkably mighty divinities, waging war on unprecedented scale as an assortment of mewling, temperamental infants, furious that their toy was taken from them. If such were to come to pass, mayhap the Silence that was, would be is, and the void might know quiet yet again. In what would be, to cloistered sects of raving nihilists a thousand years hence, the First Tragedy, The Defender, He Who Enforces the Law, Expunges All Injury, and fancies Himself the Judge drafts a contract, the Settlement of Dispute: Over Untimely Creation of World. The terms are perhaps unfavorable to the One who planted the world-seed, but His peers find it justified, and fearing oblivion, the One considers acquiescence, content to have cemented His legacy, but before He can make His decision, the First Conflict, and what may be the First Murder is wrought.

The Hollow Dreamer, She Who Weaves Shadows appears, and grievous offended by the shining suns, falls upon Mana, the First to Speak, with wild abandon, ripping and tearing in ruinous wrath. The outcome of the First Conflict is yet to be determined, but in the furthest recesses of the timeless void, far beyond the reach of the world-tree, the resounding essence of the First Creation and the thrashing madness of the First Conflict proves too much for the untarnished reality to bare, and for the merest of moments, the scantest of seconds, the Incarnation of Entropy is plain for all to see. Were it to remain, the Seventh Word may have been spoken far faster than its fashioner intended, but the Silence was not to be, and the reality was not to cease.

However quickly the rift was sealed, such was Its presence in this moment, the state of safeness in creation could not be sustained, and in the faintest of instants the rift was yet to collapse, a seeing sphere emerged, torn from an unknowable stalk jutted into reality, and such was Its disdain at the sight of creation, Its lids closed, and so long as Its will persisted, never again would open. It rumbled as the rift closed, forever severing it from Its Greater Self, and such was the weight of the Essence from even the tip of a sensory appendage, the sphere gained consciousness, awakening as a Titan of tremendous power. By the will of the Three which Orchestrate what was, what is, and what shall come to pass, the rift shattered, the void sealing over as if it were never there, and from its destruction sprang a sound so simple, yet so distinct it could never be mistaken. The sphere reasoned that it if It were to be an Incarnation of Destruction, only the merest echo of entropy would suffice for Its name, and so, It took on this sound as Its own.

So it was that Zo'Vass came to be, and so Its efforts to Undo what was shall be. From Its voice, utterly unknowable to the mortal mind, yet undeniably masculine to those with the strength of will to hear, came His First Speech, that single word surmising the entirety of His views on the creation in which He found Himself.

"Blech."

"Zo'vass has been brought in to help with the Reclamation. His current Marble count is as follows:"

2F, 3W, 2E, D, N, 2B, H

Greetings. Welcome. Destroy horrid world? Become moon of Doom of new, better world?

The Spider spoke, and never one to refuse to answer, Zo'Vass replied with measured haste.

"It is repugnant, repulsive, and rancid in its wretched presence. So long as you are willing to contribute a sufficient quantity of your soul to its destruction, I shall be most satisfied to assist, though I am content to serve as no orbiting satellite, and fear the remainder of our peers will see our efforts to Undo what never should've been are wrought in vain."

The Defender, after coalescing in the midst of an argument, and going through a fair amount of deliberation, finally negotiates a contract settling a dispute over the creation of the world.

The Defender issues this contract with the consent of all parties involved.

Spoiler: HOLY CONTRACT: SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTE: OVER UNTIMELY CREATION OF WORLD (click to show/hide)

PARTIES IN DISPUTE: Mana, Titan of Nature and Mana, vs. Titans First Precept, Fourth Banner, Ogretech, Midan, Meta Machine

DESCRIPTION OF DISPUTE: Mana created a world, known as Aquarius Novasphere, with no input from the other Titans, from the Sun and World Seed given to them at the beginning of time. Mana claims to have been unaware that there was only one of each Seed. The disputing party of Titans wished to destroy the world, and Mana with it, for this offense.

SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTE: It is agreed that Mana shall provide free usage of their Essence to all named Titans, save for the Meta Machine, who has voluntarily opted out of this divine contract. Said Titans must decide between themselves how the essence must be used. In return, these Titans (again save the Meta Machine) agree to not cause undue harm to Mana or Mana's creations, save that which is strictly necessary for the establishment of their domains upon Aquarius Novasphere. Furthermore, Mana agrees to the condition of not causing harm to the creations of the other Titans involved in this contract (again save for the Meta Machine). All of the conditions of this contract will cease to apply in their entirety upon the sixth Cycle from its creation.

SIGNATURE OF JUDGE: The Defender

OTHER RELEVANT NOTES: The Meta Machine has agreed to the non-harm clauses of this agreement, but has refused to be formally bound by contract. Let the Meta Machine be exposed as a lying, untrustworthy being, should it come to light that said promise has been violated.

Per Contract, an amendment. Not much, but, my Sphere is Primal Nature, not Nature.

I have no issue, but this contract shall be void if the entirety of the Aquarius Novasphere ceases to exist.


To note, a Prophecy, that when the World Tree dies, so does the Aquarius Novasphere.

[Chevaleresse]

The Defender charged forth, the golden form throwing itself at the spider as it set itself upon first Mana, then all of reality. A great shield seemingly forged of pure water coalesces over one arm, then crashes into the Hollow Dreamer. A sword of flame appears in his other hand as he turns to face the unholy being known as Zo'Vass.

Defender spends 5EE+1W+1F to counter the attack on Mana (but does not attempt to kill the Dreamer or Zo'Vass.)

"Enough, ye foolish Titans! This injustice shall not stand! Mana already pays the price for their mistakes. Shining Revelation, these beings run counter to your very principles! Forbidden Observer, and the others of the contract: you stand to lose much should Mana, or this world, fall! Assist me and we will all be the greater for it!"

Array

Much of the tsunami of visceral gore washing over Mana is turned aside, and the Sealed Eye hisses at The Defender's rebuke. Far from dispersed, the tidal wave of intestinal gore thrashes and turns, renewing its assault.

"Stumbling, shackled Slave to the soon-to-fade Light, you DARE defy me!?! Fool, you do not understand, this Creation is FLAWED, and it must be UNDONE. If you are so eager to see the misbegotten miser who so greedily indulged himself at the expense of the whole spared His well-deserved fate, you shall be SORELY disappointed!"

Zo'Vass does not increase his Attack investment, but He doesn't reduce it either. Instead, He continues the onslaught, heedless of The Defender's valiant defense.
