Our story is a beautiful crystal, it casts multiple steams of light like a spectrum of life.

{It brings forth all existences in which he will reign}

This is the story dormant within the mind of Andrew Hussie, and as such, all final credit for the characters, even redesigned as they may be, remains his.

It begins, as most do, at the beginning. Some would laugh at this, saying, "wwell of course it wwould, that's wwhat the beginning is for isn't it?"

But I say this, it begins at the true beginning, as, although no one but I know what truly propagated the creation of this land, I can tell you this,

it started with a breath.

== ~/~

A first breath.

Chapter 1: First Breath

There is fire. There is burning, twisting, agonizing fire. This is the first thought that occurs to the young being that enters the world on this day, the first of many.

The fire is suddenly cooled, and then, all too suddenly, chilled. The infant cries out, startled by the unexpected chill of air outside the womb.

"It Is A Boy, Your Highness"

"A)(.. A s)(ame. )(ad )(e been a girl, )(e could )(ave liv—Ed"

"... Also Your Highness… He Appears.. Odd."

"What do you mean?"

The midwife feared for the life of the child, and so spun a quick lie.

"It Is Nothing Your Highness, It Was Merely A Trick Of The Light.."

The Condesce so satisfied immediately ordered the same as she had with all her other past children, including the one unnamed female who could have replaced her.

He was to be incinerated.

Questions you may have: How can she have past children if time began at this birth.

Answer: Time is tricky to understand, dave could answer it best, but I will attempt to explain the intricacies.

1: Though there is a past present and future, the universe started at this point. (this may or may not be a major plot point later)

B: Think of it like this, in homestuck, the trolls created a universe, but the entirety of time had occurred for that universe before they even connected with it at all.

Choochootrain: When looking at the human timeline on trollian, there is a beginning point, and the end appears at the scratch, think of this as that bottom of the timeline.

Another question you might have is… Who was just born

Answer: Wait for another chapter to find out.

This was unbelievably short, but if I get any response at all I will update at least every day (usually longer chapters too) also, looking for a beta, never done a beta, interested in what they could do to help me improve/slavedrive me.
