There can be no creation without destruction…

-Unknown

In the beginning there was but One God, an omniscient and all knowing being.  This God filled the void of the heavens with stars to light the emptiness and planets to orbit about those stars so that they would never be lonely.  While this omnipotent being's heart was filled with wonder and happiness at his creations, he soon realized that he lacked the companionship he gifted to the heavens and realized he too could experience loneliness.  So of himself, he made twelve children, each blessed with a different countenance, power, and personality.   Of them he would have been proud, had he not sacrificed himself to create such beings of beauty and wonder. 

So the twelve gods and goddesses were born into a world without guidance save the love of the One God who created them.  When they first opened their eyes, the beauty of the heavens dazzled these godlings.   Their thirst for knowledge and understanding urged them to venture forth amongst the stars and find a place to call their own.  So the 12 otherworldly beings divided, each going their separate ways across the heavens. 

One among them, the goddess Midoriko, ventured to a solar system which held a world of brilliant blue with a single silver moon orbiting silently in its midst and felt a unexplained warmth bloom in her bosom.  After searching galaxy after galaxy, She'd found a place to call her own.  She blessed the world with a name in her native tongue that would be shortened to the Blue Star by its future inhabitants.  Fueled by her love and compassion, she gifted the world of sapphire with her power and from her fingers life sprang.  With her power she created four avatars, all of different personality and countenance, to be her companions as she shaped and molded this new world to her desire.  She deigned each avatar with the duty of maintaining one element from which the Blue Star was created; fire (courage), earth (wisdom), water (strength), air (love). 

Under their supervision, the Blue Star became a place of lush beauty and wonder.  Mountains stood majestically, seas rolled in shining splendor, clouds moved gracefully through the air, and the fiery light of the sun nourished life.  Midoriko saw all of this and was pleased.  One day while Midoriko stood in a valley of emerald grass staring up at sky of untainted blue, the wind whipping through her shining, ethereal locks, she realized although she treasured her Blue Star she did not wish to covet it.  She lifted her had to the heavens and created animals to roam the hills, the valleys, and the very seas of her beloved planet but she felt that something was missing.

After consulting with her avatars, she decided to create lesser mortal beings in the images of her brothers and sisters to populate her glorious Blue Star using the combination of the four elements to bring them to life.  She gave each a name and doted upon them.  She gave each of her children the gift of magic and held them close to her heart.  The humans adored their goddess and sang her praises so loudly it could be heard throughout the galaxy.  The humans multiplied and flourished, building a huge palace of stone and magic crystal for the goddess Midoriko to reside in.  They held festivals in her name, dancing and singing in joyous celebration.  This made Midoriko smile and laugh.  She danced among them and sang of worlds she hoped her children would one day see and her beautiful voice rang through the heavens.  

Her siblings soon took notice of Midoriko's creations and some followed suit, creating and molding beings to their liking and creating worlds to their tastes.  One sibling, Taisho, gifted the goddess with his own creation.  Taisho named his creation youkai, proud immortal beings of strength and loyalty.    The goddess loved these beings just as she loved her own children and the youkai, impressed by her power and kindness, reciprocated and vowed their loyalty to the goddess for all time. 

As technology advanced, Midoriko's children as well as those of her siblings traveled from world to world, mingling amongst each other and gaining knowledge.  All things flourished and all the gods, goddesses and their children were happy save one…

Naraku, a powerful god, had grown envious of his siblings and strived to create a galaxy of splendor to outshine the others.  However, his creations were marred by his feelings of jealousy and pride and therefore self-destructed.  His children fought bloody amongst themselves, trying to dominate and subdue all who opposed them.  The god saw this and was embittered and became twisted by his own selfish desires.  He began to thrive off of chaos and woe, for it was all he could create and corruption pleased him. 

He went from galaxy to galaxy corrupting and destroying the civilizations his siblings created and fed off the chaos he created.  His power grew exponentially until his siblings were unable to hold back the tide of his hatred and he destroyed them all.

Being the last uncorrupted child of the One God, Midoriko sought to fend off the tide of Naraku's destructive behavior.  However, his chaotic aura slipped past her guard and caused a horrendous on the Blue Star that threatened the very foundation of her beloved world.  As Midoriko witnessed human pitted against human and youkai against youkai, tears fell from her eyes and rage bloomed in her breast.  She used her power to lock away her fiendish brother in the farthest reaches of space and carried the avatars along with the survivors of her war-ravaged world to the desolate moon.  She blessed the small planet with life and named it Lunar.      

Midoriko's hopes to recreate her wondrous world were dashed when she realized that the legacy of Naraku lived in the hearts of some.  The humans were ever dependant on her strength and the youkai blamed the weak humans for their exodus to Lunar.  The youkai left Midoriko's presence and traveled to the farthest reaches of the planet.  In sadness the goddess tended to her children and protected them.  Slowly but surely, Midoriko extracted herself from the forefront.  Over years, she appointed her avatars as her guardians and strategically forced humans into the roles of power.  The goddess faded into the pages of forgotten lore and legends and her avatars too became things of bedtime stories amongst the inhabitants of Lunar. 

Some still believe the goddess still watches over them.   Others disavow any knowledge of her existence.  However, all still stare at the ever-looming Blue Star and wonder how it came to be there and what mysteries that planet holds.
