Primordial Dragons
There were Thoughts before there was anything else.
Fourteen Noble Thoughts.
Each shared with the others. Each shared their Thought and received the other thirteens' Thoughts into their being. It was the first moment of rationality. Some were Thoughts that provided contrast to the rational and made the reasoning of thought understandable by comparison. There can be no Brightness without Darkness, no Order without Disorder, no Goodness without Malfeasance.
Any present-thought is filled with complexity if it is worthy of contemplation. The Noble Thoughts are this and more.
The Noble Thoughts would prove subtle and elusive -- to themselves and especially to all those that came after. The first to try to understand were the high entities that followed them into the early Protorealm. The Noble Thoughts were grasped and lost many times in that developmental period. The Protorealm was all confusion and peace. Things might have remained unresolved forever such was the Protorealm's nature...
This indeterminate aeon came to an end with the entry into these high entities' minds of the Noble Thought of Existence -- Time. The high entities now gained a glimpse of their own frailty, despite their immortality. Time insisted on being born into these beings' understanding. Time was made real. The high entities -- who as yet had no names of their own -- saw Time as real and saw that it was named, Typhon. Typhon taught the high entities what he had shared with the other thirteen Noble Thoughts and what they had shared with Typhon. With Typhon's aid they were able to grasp the other Thoughts and hold them within their memories as they had not been able to before. They could see each of the Noble Thoughts' names. The high entities saw that they too could be made real through the acts of thought. It was the first and greatest lesson. So it was learned for the first time that, 'Time is the greatest of teachers'.
The high entities now began to desire to form into reality. Typhon told them that the First Realm was waiting for them in their joint, near future. Imbued with the Noble Thoughts, the high entities crossed the amorphous barrier between their place among the Thoughts and into a new reality. The high entities took names. At the moment of their crossing or because of their naming, the entities took form and substance. They became the might and power of the embryonic realm.
The Elemental Kings of Flame, Water, Air and Earth took their place amid the gestating place. One would fall almost immediately as the Thought fled the entity -- Flame was lost to all that came after... Some of the entities took on the aspects of importance to come in the realm; Ruler and Abject, Freedom and Servitude, Object and Grace. These were the Spindle, the Halo and the Sphere... Others could see that they must contest with another Thought, to prove their distinctive Thought was superior in every fashion; Rightness or Wrongness, Lawfulness or Unlawfulness... The Loreds of Races, numerous beyond counting, stood shoulder to shoulder and gazed lovingly at what would soon be a home to their children... They could not act to bring forth their kind, however, until the Gods brought their powers to bear to unite their strengths and create the worlds and and the planes that contained the things that were to come of both Element and Lored... One held back from departing the Protorealm as quickly as the rest. This became the quietest of Thoughts, Shadow.
It was in their precipitous rush into the First Realm, that the high entities became inextricably entwined, clinging to the Thirteen Noble Thoughts that gave them their reality. Noble Thoughts enmesh themselves within those that comprehend them. The high entities could not throw off the Thoughts they had grasped. They became known collectively as Dragons.

The four are of the New Realm. It is a new rationale as much as it’s an old story. These four new understandings of the Thoughts are like and yet are new takes on the old.
