Primordial Age

The Primordial Age is the earliest known era in the history of the Eternal Universe. It began with the awakening of The One, approximately in the year 35000 BC, and concluded around 5000 BC with the creation of the Eternal Servants. This age is shrouded in mystery, as no written records or direct testimonies remain. However, Magisters and scholars widely believe that during this time, the universe and everything within it—including the planes of existence, the celestial bodies, and the Eternals themselves—came into being.

The Awakening of The One

The Primordial Age begins with the emergence of The One from the Eternal Void. The nature of The One’s existence before this moment remains unknown, and some Magisters speculate that The One simply willed itself into being. In a burst of divine creativity, The One shaped the Eternal Universe from the void, weaving the fabric of existence and giving form to the fundamental forces that govern reality.

The Creation of the Eternal Universe

During this era, The One brought forth the planes of existence, dividing them to maintain order and prevent chaos from consuming creation. Among these were the Material Plane, where mortal life would one day flourish, and the Elemental Planes, which embodied the raw forces of nature. The Eternal Plane, designed as a realm for the divine, was also established to house the supreme beings The One would soon create.

Magisters theorize that the very laws of nature, magic, and time were established during the Primordial Age. This structured reality, ensuring that creation did not collapse into chaos. The stars and celestial bodies, including Lux, were formed as anchors of stability within the universe, each infused with Eternal Essence to sustain their energy.

The Birth of the Eternals

After shaping the universe, The One turned its focus toward creation within it. From its boundless power, The One brought forth The Seven, divine beings meant to serve as stewards of existence. Each of The Seven was imbued with a unique purpose:

The Architect was tasked with forging the landscapes of the planes.
The Nurturer was given the responsibility of bringing life into creation.
The Balancer ensured harmony between all things.
The Timekeeper established the cycles of existence.
The Reaper introduced the necessary end to all things, allowing renewal.
The Guardian safeguarded the order of the universe.
The Dreamweaver was given no specific role, instead embodying the potential for imagination and change.

The Eternals worked in unison, their powers shaping the young universe. For millennia, they perfected the structures of existence, refining their creations to prepare for the next great step in The One’s grand vision.

The End of the Primordial Age

The Primordial Age concluded with the creation of the Eternal Servants by The Seven. This pivotal event introduced powerful beings tasked with assisting the Eternals in governing the universe. Their emergence marked a significant shift in cosmic history, leading to the dawn of the Age of Eternals.

Legacy of the Primordial Age

Though the Primordial Age remains largely a mystery, its influence endures in every aspect of the Eternal Universe. The stars still burn with the energy of their creation, the planes remain divided as they were first established, and the laws of nature continue to govern all existence. The actions of The One and The Seven in this ancient era set the foundation upon which all later events unfolded.

Even in the present day, scholars and Magisters seek to uncover more about this lost era, hoping to understand the origins of existence itself. The echoes of the Primordial Age linger, woven into the fabric of reality, reminding all beings of the vast and unknowable forces that shaped their world.
