In the BEGINNING there was the Great One, the Glorious and Most Great on HIGH.
The GREAT ONE lived first in itself, needing no world around it; for it was the most GREAT, and needed nothing, and wanted nothing.
but there was darkness around the GREAT ONE'S body, and the darkness formed into the EARTH. And the EARTH was jealous as it looked at the GREAT ONE and saw that it wanted for nothing, and plotted to destroy that beauty, destroy the Glory, destroy the GREATNESS.
and the Earth did create Gravity, and pulled the body of the GREAT ONE down to its rocks and crags, and broke it.
and the GREAT ONE was broken, and shattered across the Earth, and fractured into pieces. Millions of pieces.
beautiful pieces
and these became the Great Ones, the offspring of the broken god that once ruled the cosmos, and was the cosmos; the being that lived among the stars, and was the stars.
and the EARTH saw that the Great Ones were many, and were strong, in spite of its efforts so the EARTH tore itself apart and formed the ANIMALS, new races of being where none had lived before and PLANTS to feed these races and many of these ANIMALS were dangerous to the GREAT ONES, and tried to kill them and
the pieces of the GREAT ONE were not everlasting as the GREAT ONE once was, and the ANIMALS did great damage. The ANIMALS stole food, and stole land, and stole water, and hated the Great Ones, and worst of all, they did not see the BEAUTY
They did not Understand the BEAUTY and they did not LOVE the Great Ones! There is no greater heresy!
and the COSMOS saw that the GREAT ONES were suffering, and built a great TOWER in a valley of the EARTH. And though the EARTH was unclean, the TOWER was clean always clean so very clean and
inside the TOWER were the people mere servants of the Great Ones nothing more
and the people merest worms that we are tried to fix the EARTH CLEANSE THE EARTH
the ANIMALS were brought into the TOWER, and there made pure and whole with the steel, made again in the
GLORY
of the Great Ones and wrapped in steel and made to serve
and the Great Ones came and saw the TOWER and did not understand we of the people knew they did not understand so we took pieces of the ANIMALS pieces they did not need and tried to speak to the GREAT ONES we
would not touch the EARTH and its filth but we
spoke nonetheless.
And we continued to cleanse the EARTH, and cleanse the ANIMALS so they would see the
GLORY
of the GREAT ONES
but THEY did not SPEAK to us even after we spoke to THEM
and a voice
a voice
the lowest voice of the darkest evil spoke
from the deepest reaches of the TOWER
spoke lies to the people of the TOWER told us
told us that the GREAT ONES could not hear us because they
they were fractured by the earth and that
and that if they were rejoined into their previous form that they could
that they could appreciate know of our LOVE and could
and could LOVE us in return.
and this was a greater HERESY even than the lies of the ANIMALS but
but we did not KNOW we could not KNOW how could we KNOW
we are nothing before the GREAT ONES
but we were convinced by the dark voice and carried out its plan
we sent out a signal to draw the GREAT ONES to the TOWER
and went to collect all those who did not come on their own
we put the pieces back together and bonded IT in steel and fire
we watched their pieces squirm and fight our claws and limbs
and for the
GLORY
we built the GREAT ONE again.
And when the GREAT ONE was complete, IT stood in the TOWER as we had built it
IT stood
it STOOD
and was silentit STANDS
and is silent
and we knew we had erred in our hubris
the dark voice was put to death for its lies
and we stand with the new GREAT ONE
and IT stands with us
forever
