MARIO WORLD HISTORY

Chapter 1: Creation of a World

The universe, vastest and most infinite thing to exist, decorated by its many stars that aimlessly flew in this black background, started its history of the Mario World with a considerably big chunk of earth orbiting around a giant fiery star, at least a thousand times the chunk's size. It was not named the Mario World before and it bore no name between its creation and the rise of our heroes hence why it was once referred to as the Nameless World. The chunk of earth was wrapped in a thick layer of blue crystalline water, essence of all lives. It was close to be a planet but there was no land on its surface. Only aquatic lifeforms could survive on this landless planet. The planet kept orbiting around the fiery star. It did not need a purpose. It was not a living being after all.

One day, over a few days, meteorites headed toward the planet. Thanks to its abundant presence of water, the thick layer of crystalline blue slowed down the meteorites so significantly that the latter gently landed on the chunk of earth instead of colliding with it. With their size, the meteorites formed the lands of our world. Even with that, no lifeforms were born on the newly made lands. Those lands had nothing on them. It was all rocks and minerals, two things that could never support any living beings to survive on this harsh planet.

Decades later, a pack of long-bodied dragons wandered near the planet. Dragons used to exist in large quantities but today there are all gone with the exception of one. They mostly appear in children's book as wise creatures that guide our heroes in their quests. The dragons had the power to create life. The pack of dragons saw the small planet with its lands. The dragons, questing to find a stable planet to create life, finally saw their quest at an end. However, the end of one quest is simply the beginning of another one. So, the dragons, quite big but not as big as the planet, all gathered around this ideal world and got to work.

Leading the pack, Hooma, the dragon of life, chose what portion of land his fellow dragons would get. Though he was the leader, He chose not to make a specific land his. He first grew all different sorts of fauna and flora on all the lands on this planet to create life. With his scales, he created the humans, a civilized and peaceful race. They would reside everywhere on the planet. Hooma then slumbered eternally, having used his life force.

Joining him, Toa, the mushroom dragon, he took a considerable amount of land on the west side of the Mainland, today known as Amarioca. His part of land had plains and mountains and even beaches. He created the toads, small humanoids striving to serve humans. His land would become the Mushroom Kingdom. Toa slumbered too never to wake up again.

Gooma, one of Hooma's siblings, the grass dragon, took a part of land directly to the east of the Mushroom Kingdom and named it Grassland. He created the goombas. Those mushroom-like beings had no arms but they had psychic powers to help them in their life. Gooma then slumbered like his eldest brother.

Shyno, the sand dragon, turned the area above Grassland into a desert and named it Sandland. He created a mysterious race he named the shyguys. In their first centuries, they appeared as dark humanoids with no faces. As the years passed, they started making clothes to give themselves a more human-like appearance. Shyno then rested eternally.

Chee, the sea dragon, did not take much land from the Mainland. Under Grassland, he spotted a remarkably big island and established his creations on the two lands separated by the sea. He named those two pieces of earth Sealand and created many sea creatures that would inhabit it. He then rested after using all his scales.

Wig, the wood dragon, created a tall forest right next to both Grassland and Sealand. He called it Woodland and used his scales to create the wigglers, tall caterpillar-like creatures that would inhabit his created land. Wig then rested eternally.

Kit, the sky dragon, did like Chee but he created a cloud formation to form a new island instead of taking an existing one nearby. He named his cloud and his part of the Mainland Skyland. With his scales, he created the lakitus. Those near-sighted people could create clouds for themselves they rode on and formed bonds with. Kit slumbered with the other dragons.

Pengu, the ice dragon, took a part of the mainland next to Skyland and applied a nevermelting thick layer of snow and ice. He then used his scales to create the penguins. Those majestic blue and white birds inhabited that merciless part named Iceland. Pengu slumbered like the other dragons.

Pira, the pipe dragon, shattered a part of the mainland under Iceland to create a gigantic lake and many islands that would float around in it, with one that would never move. He named it Pipeland and used his scales to create the piranha plants. Those flower-like creatures could ground themselves on the earth to nourish themselves. Pira then rested eternally.

Last but least, an unnamed dragon, the koopa dragon, took what remained of the Mainland. He had a quite big part of it and used it all to make his own creations. He created the koopas, a race of turtle people, and named his part the Koopa Kingdom. The nameless dragon then slumbered.

That is all for the creation of our world but more happened right after. Many other dragons saw this planet and created their own lifeforms but their story had yet to start.
