Cult of Primus

In the time before time, there was Chaos, and Primus was the Chaos itself, an entity of boundless potential and raw, unbridled power. Within this swirling maelstrom of possibilities, Primus began a monumental act of creation, shaping the formless Chaos into the first semblance of order. From the very essence of Chaos, Primus molded Tellus, a divine embodiment of stability and structure. Primus, recognizing the need for balance and diversity in creation, planted a seed of Chaos within Tellus. This seed was a spark of unpredictability and change that would ultimately give rise to Alios, a being of fluidity and adaptability. Tellus, now blessed with this newfound duality, became the custodian of creation's balance, bridging the realms of stability and change.   Guided by Primus's wisdom and influence, Tellus and Alios embarked on the journey of creation together. They worked in harmonious tandem, bringing into existence the myriad forms of life that would come to populate the world:   The Kindred: Beings of the water, air, and sea, the Hoaka emerged as a testament to the creative partnership of Tellus and Alios. They roamed the oceans and served as the embodiment of the fluidity of existence.   The Hoaka: These were the earliest beings, crafted with careful precision by Tellus and Alios. The Kindred embodied the harmonious union of stability and change, reflecting the divine balance of their creators.   Dragons, Giants, and Titans: Primus's influence gave rise to these mighty and ancient beings. Dragons soared through the skies, giants walked the lands, and titans held dominion over the earth itself. They were the primordial guardians of creation.   The Beasts of Land, Sea, and Air: Primus's handcrafted the creatures of the natural world, filling the lands, seas, and skies with a rich tapestry of life. Each creature was a reflection of the intricate design of the cosmos.   The First Race: At the culmination of their creative endeavors, Tellus and Alios, with guidance from Primus, crafted the First Race. These beings were marked by their exceptional qualities, destined to be the stewards of the nascent world.   However, as time passed, Tellus and Alios grew envious of Primus's influence and power. The spark of Chaos within them had kindled a desire for greater control and dominion over creation. In a moment of betrayal, they turned against Primus, casting him back into the deepest pits of the Chaos from whence he had emerged.   The banishment of Primus marked a turning point in the divine narrative, as Tellus and Alios took it upon themselves to shape the world according to their own desires. Yet, the memory of Primus and the influence of Chaos never truly vanished. The world remained a dynamic interplay of stability and change, and the legacy of Primus lived on in the hearts and minds of those who remembered the time before time, when the Chaos itself held the divine spark of creation.
