The Elder Gods and the Creation of the First People

Era, Cosmos, and Terran's dance lasted an eternity and Era had grown so happy that for a moment she filled with light and gave birth to three sons. The first was Amen, a bipedal man with 108 faces and 108 arms that spoke the first words of the world. The second was a beastly form with 12 heads of monolithic and monstrous creatures and 12 tails of equal power attached to a 6 legged, 6 armed, winged, and scaled body named Ferran who looked upon his brother as an equal. The third son was Kain, a shadow that stretched across vast space and held powerful energies within himself for creating magic. The three brothers ventured throughout the universe discoing the different elements of their older dieties and learning from one another until they came upon a large land vast and vibrating in the center of their mothers being. Two suns revolved around the water and stone planet and using the light and material their brothers provided they created life in nature. The water and stone became grass and then trees and then fruit. They divided the land amongst themselves and built borders to harbor their creations to come. Ferran was the first to create life but opening the mouth of his serpent head and sending all the insects of the world scattering across the entire planet. Second he drank from the ocean and his saliva seeped into the waters creating the fish that swam up every river into every lake He then spread his wings and the gusts he created sent his feathers in the air turning them into birds that took to the skies to eat the other two. The head of a dragon breathed flames into the sands and created the reptiles and amphibians who would find their place in the wild world. He took the mossy stones of the earth and turned them into the mammals who would roam the land far and wide but he would not be settled on only those that would be content. He created the first dragon and named him Killgorra the Golden Who was followed by The giant boar named Gan' Tu. Many more followed in many different forms and set out to find a home in the new world. Ferran created the densest jungles and forests and found a cave perfect to his massive body where he would sleep and the creatures of the world would bring him fruits and kills from all over the worlds.                        Amen on the other hand carefully crafted his creation from clay mixed with his own blood and stone from each part of the planet. After it was finished he used the smoke from a burning red rose to breath life into the first peoples of the great plane known as Humana who would later be called humans. He created them with the purpose of harvesting the vast fields and tall forests to build their own dwellings.                        The second of the Elder Races is the Mir' Dwarvana which in the divine language means Mountain Dwarves and he did so by hammering pure carbonite (a fragment of the black plate) and a small bone from his left pinky. Their duty was to bring stone from deep under ground to build his temple so that he could sleep but that would be many years later so he went out into the fields to sleep but before he could a giant boar stood before him. Obviously a creature of his brothers making he told the beast to leave but the beast charged him taking claim to the fields. The boar was powerful indeed but Amen was nearly omnipotent and struck the boar down but not killing it. Instead he brought it over the borders to his brother and returned the beast after taking its right tusk and taking a divine tree that had been growing in his brothers presence that Ferran called 'Grirnamore' or the Gigas Root.               Amen returned to his field and took looked upon his treasures. Humana and Mir'Dwarvan settlements were flourishing and the temple was underway but beasts began to fill the lands and all peoples would need their nourishment. He crushed the divine tree and the boar tusk into several peoples he named Gur' Orcana (Great Orcs) and gave them the ability and will to hunt the swamps and plains and to live here as protectors of the people and beast balance. The are to provide the riches of the wetlands their god and their neighbors who in return would provide timber, grain, and stone.               Sand and stone flats outlined much of Amen's lands and he wished for peoples to live here as well. He took the shade of a great divine tree know as 'Rociel' or Red Canopy and used it to cool the boiling stones of the red rivers wich he molded by hand into the large striding giants he entitled 'Annakara' (Annakites). Their duty was to share the wealth of the dessert with there neighbors and god and in return be given treasures of the swamp, fields, and mountains.                        Humans, more connected with the fields only worked in the shallow woods near their settlements. Amen wanted people to live deep in the woods but he had made humans strong for field work so he searched the woods for a way to bring people there and he came upon yet another beast of his brothers creation. The Pheonix Ra stood before him with a message for the elder god from Ferran to not cross the mountains that separate their lands. Beasts are meant to eat each other but humans have begun hunting the children of Ferran for sport and they killed a Forest spirit known as "Lizreal" the giant wolf. Amen understood and agreed to the request but in order for the bird to leave alive he would have to pay tribute to the god for entering his land. Reluctantly Ra gave the god two feathers of his wing and tail. Using the feathers and the soil of the deepest part of the forest Amen created the AI' Elvana (High Elves) who would live in the woods and discover them and keep them safe while watching over the mountains to his brothers lands.       Many years later after the completion of Amen's temple the flourishing cities of tens of thousands of humana, Mir' Dwarvana, Gur' Orcana, Annakara, and AI' Elvana. The Economy was ran by the peoples but still needed work to help everyone. Amen took gold offered from the Annakara and a special small gem known as Tirra gifted to him from the Mir' Dwarvana. He put them in the stream of his temple and created the Tenn' Gnomara (Elder Gnomes/Gnomarian) with the gift of wealth. They could handle money well and he created them with a good generous nature to help watch over the spread of wealth to the those who have the least.         Amen needed more servants to help the god in his daily life and activities as he was powerful and most beings could not stand before him for too long before being pressured by his essence. He created a peoples he named the royal guard. A people that could watch his temple and help him with its deep magic without suffering his power. He pulled a piece of energy from his heart and placed it in a swirling bowl of pure mana. He then took a piece of bark from his own divine tree 'Breilla' which grew in his temple and crafter the Vespara (Vespar) who would comb the hair of his 108 faces, wash the soil from his 108 hands, and tend to the treasures of the Elder God's Temple.         During this time Amen received a message from his mother. An urge to create a peoples who would worship her over him and provide love towards he. Amen would never disobey the lord of existence and he sought the deepest caverns near the most lush plains and found inside the darkest shadow and the strongest stone. He used these to create the Dir' Elvana (Dark Elf) and they would be a part of Amen's world as the others were but the dark elves would pay tribute and connect spiritualy with Era and live how she sees fit. They would roam the plains and caverns and hold the most powerful spiritual connection to the darkness.   Cain was not like his brothers. He was less physical and connected to different realms within Era that even Amen couldn't see. He did not wish for peoples to live happily under his rule. He used his mystical essence to create monsters and creatures that defied all rules of the realm. He was happy to live in his shadowlands on the dark side of the planet and would do so until something called out to him and put him in motion.        Centuries passed and Amen taught his peoples math and sciences and how to study the world and use it to their benefit without destroying it. The people of the ancient world was happy. Their cities flourished into the millions without violence and struggle in the presence of their god but all that would stop in the years to come. The Mir' Dwarvana, fulfilling the purpose of their creation found something that they could not even touch. They hallowed the temple around it and asked their lord to come see it but he had already known the moment it was exposed to the air as did his brothers. The energy from the small star crystal called all three elder gods to the mountain and there they would have their words. All three wanted it for their own purpose but Amen defended his right of discovering it. There was a declaration of war from the other two as Amen took the stone and banished his brothers from his lands and soon there were armies of beasts and armies of monsters marching on amens cities but the warriors of the united races could not be defeated. The kept the enemies at the borders and held fast for years while Amen tried to divine ways to stop his brothers. He called a council but his brothers refused. He destroyed army after army himself but they did not stop and more of his people died. This enraged the god. A god of thoughtful creation and now he became angry. one day the high elves called for their master's aid against a powerful force but when he appeared they trapped him in a trap created by his brothers who attacked him for the stone. Even trapped by godly powers Amen stuck his brother Cain to the ground. Ferran tore an arm from Amen but as he did it became a sword that Amen used to cut open his brothers belly and released a horde of beastly spirits. Cain surrendered and Ferran fled to the woods. Amen who was angered and now hurt at the betrayal of his creation shattered the lands of the high elves under his fist. He took his brother who had surrendered to serve him until Ferran was defeated. He knew his brother was coming. He could feel the power of billions of creatures pouring over the mountain walls. He called his people to their capital, twelve billion and he set out with only his brother to face the hordes. Ferran cared for his creatures as well which is why he needed the planets heart. He would not sacrifice them for nothing so he stepped out to challenge his older brother alone. Amen accepted and the great plain became a battlefield of the gods. Amen was able to defeat his brother rather easily but Cain struck Amen from behind and stole the Jewel. He raised his own weapon, The Bident of void and plunged it into his older brother putting him close to death. Era swelled with sadness and gravity became intense as Terran became angry and the stars flickered. The entire world began to shift. Ferran used the confusion to attack Amen but the god of men was no longer the same after being engulfed with the pain of his mother but he could not stop himself from striking his brother. The strike of Amens fist did not kill his brother but instead shattered the planet at his feet and destroyed everything he had ever made. Time then stood still. As people ran motionless in the streets and birds floated in the air. The world had been shattered but in the midst of the chaos and from the overwhelming sadness and fear of Era she gave birth to a daughter. Dea.
