Personal history

According to the wise folk of Mirydain, Czarnoth was created in Paradisum by Jeger Almáttugur before the beginning of the World. However, as he had been created good, he was one of the Aniolr and was given the name Ljosinn, meaning "child of light". He was one of the Magar, clever and intelligent. However, Ljosinn was prideful and soon questioned Jeger's authority as Lord over all creation. He sowed seeds of discord among the Aniolr and convinced a number of them to follow him in his lust for power.
Eventually, Ljosinn rebelled against Jeger Almáttugur and attempted to take the realm of Paradisum for himself, thus marking the First Battle. But as the High King-Above-the-Heavens is holy and all-powerful, Ljosinn was easily defeated, and he and his followers were banished from Paradisum forever. They became known as the Myrkniolr, and Ljosinn called himself Czarnoth and formed his own kingdom in the dark realm of Undern.
Eventually, Czarnoth discovered that Jeger had created the World and that Adam and his beautiful wife Eve were living in the Earthly Paradise. And because the Creation was good, it was hateful to his eyes. Czarnoth hated to see the serenity of the Garden, the harmony that existed between Adam and the creatures, and the love and contentedness that Adam and Eve shared. It was more than his evil heart could bear. Czarnoth decided that he would ruin the goodness of the Creation, and he disguised himself as a serpent and observed Adam and Eve in secret.
One day when Eve was alone, Czarnoth whispered beguiling words into Eve’s ears and led her to the Tree of Knowledge. Eve explained that she and Adam were warned not to touch or eat the fruit of the tree, for they would die. Czarnoth tempted Eve, saying, “Of course you will not die, sweet one. Jeger knows that when you eat of this fruit, you and Adam will be like gods yourselves. You, lovely Eve, would make Adam wise; a god. And you would become his goddess.” And Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, and they knew they were naked. Jeger Almáttugur drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden for they had disobeyed Him, but Jeger promised Eve that one day, one of her offspring would defeat Czarnoth and make the world new and pure.
