The Legend of the World before the First
Gather around my young children. I am going to tell you story of a great legend. A legend know by very few. Now you have learned of the War of the Dragons, Giants, and the Tritrons. But what of before that. Before Bartleby. Before the creators. Before it all. Thats right, we are going to learn about the legend of the World before the First.
Before the First World, there there was world of a race of mystical beings. How these beings came to be is something that has been lost to time itself, but we know that these these beings harnessed the power of two forces, Light and Darkness. Light and Darkness were opposites, two opposing forces that were locked in constant warfare. The beings of Light would come to respresent the forces of creation while beings of Darkness would come to respresent of the forces of destruction. These two forces became know as the Equilibrium. These two force kept balance to all of existence. They created the thing that would one day become known as the Song of Creation.
But there was cost to this. The two sides were very differnet. Once united as one, the two sides grew distant and warlike. The beings found themselves separated from brothers, sisters, friends. So out of this separation came the Shadow Magic, a mix of both Light and Darkness. The Shadow Magic fulled the void of the separation and give existence to Right and Wrong. But this great power to too great for some and corrupted them. This was the Split of the Shadow and Dark Shadow was born. The corrupted used the darkness to created a weapon called the Sword of Destruction. With this sword, the Dark Shadow spread Darkness all throughout of the World before the First. They created Destruction all through existence and sought the end of the Light.
Did they master?
Yes they did, at first. Now please, don't interrupt.
With the Light gone, the Darkness ruled over the World before the First for eons. But the Light wasn't destroyed, simply hidden in the Shadows, waiting to rise against the Darkness again.
Like the prophecy, "From the Shadows, I strike"?
Yes, now please let me continue.
You see, the Light had something that the Darkness could not beat. A weapon of pure light. The Sword of Creation.
Like the Sword of Kings?
No, the Sword of Creation is different, much more powerful weapon.
The Sword of Creation was created not by the forces of the Light, but by something that existed before time and space itself.
With the Sword of Creation, the Light rose from the Shadows to face the Dakness once again. A great battle between the Sword of Creation and the Sword of Destruction took place. The Sword of Creation, woven into fate itself, overpowered the Sword of Destruction and destroyed it in a great explosion. The explosion resulted in the destruction of the World before the First World, but brought into existence, the First World and the Sword of Creation was lost to time forever. But it is said that its return is in this ancient prophency:
"When the Shadows fall, the Darkness will rise and bring about the Destruction the Light.
But from the destruction, will a warrior that was once faced against the Shadows, rise up and, wielding the Sword of Creation, bring the final end of the Darkness and create a new age of Light.
