Mythology & Lore
In the beginning, the Garden was created. From this creation, the tenants of its being were defined. From this definition, the tenants resonated with the creators, and the creators embraced the concepts. By defining themselves withthese concepts, the creators became gods. Without structure, the gods, each embracing many differing and conflicting concepts, could not agree on anything, and so they each set about creating to their own tastes and keeping their concepts above all else. When the world, inevitably, was brought together, these concepts came once again into conflict. Learning from this, the greatest of the gods sat together and discussed the fate of the Garden. From these talks rose the agreements that led to the foundation of the pantheons. Of these pantheons, each sharing concepts and agreeing with eachother, the only Pantheon to remain stable was the Pantheon of Light, who decided that these conflicts were not a detriment - they were necessary. By mediating their conflicts, and working together, the gods of the Pantheon of Light channeled their concepts into the guiding principles of the world today.
