The Reshaping
In almost any culture that worships the Ten, the Reshaping is the creation myth told and propagated. Little is truly known about this event. Was it an entire age unto itself, or a brief period of rapid change? What actually happened in the Reshaping, and what was just the early Age of Rebirth? Is there a meaningful difference between those two periods? These questions and many, many more will probably never be answered in the wake of The Reckoning as almost all records of the earliest periods of Emaxian history were lost. This article is a mostly objective retelling of the Reshaping that only deals in the things people know of in present Emaxus. These are the stories Emaxians tell themselves about where they came from.The most ancient Yamman records and scriptures tell of an event called the Obsidian War. Nothing is known of this event, save for three things: the mortal who became Yamma slew a being named Vivrah; Vivrah was the one and only God before the Reshaping; the Obsidian War unraveled reality. The scriptures say the heroes who slew Vivrah fell and their spirits combined with some of Vivrah's Divinity to become Yamma.
