Epliström
At the beginning of time, there was an apple, floating in nothingness. This apple contained seeds, brood for future worlds. One of these seeds, however, was in truth, not similar to its brothers: This was Avall'uch, the embodiment of chaos. Instead of awaiting his turn, maturing and becoming a peaceful world coexisting in the multiverse, he wanted more, and so, over an inconceivable amount of time, this seed of chaos developed into a worm. Consumed by his hunger, Avall'uch began to eat, devouring his kin, his own mother's flesh, wishing to become "everything" and ever expanding.
Once everything was consumed, with nothing left around him, Avall'uch started, however, to feel alone, and so started devouring the void around him, driven by his frustration and ambition. Whilst feasting on nothing, what he failed to realize, as chaos often does, was that consuming nothing meant that he was already everything, this consumption if anything making him less "everything". And so, in its primordial state, the universe kept expanding...But Chaos in its purest form cannot self-sustain for long, this is how order was born. From the very void inside Avall'uch's insides, Ragdafuria, goddess of order and purity, emerged, her birth producing the first fragments of matter as we know it.
Avall'uch, furious about the apparition of another entity, went inside himself to commence a terrible battle. Chaos and order fought for eons, but with time, they became one. Fighting over supremacy, chaos had become order and order had become chaos.
From this fusion of perfect order and chaos was born the first pantheon and the first higher ones, the remains of creation and chaos jumbled together. Those as well fought and fused to create new worlds and new pantheons. The second pantheon and the second higher Ones are now the gods and entities, along with others, that rule over this plain of existence, along with the little world on which this adventure takes place: Epliström, the apple storm, small scale picture of the struggles of creation and destruction. This is our world, inhabited by magic.
The tale begins on The Continent, primarily inhabited by men and monsters.
