Malum, Goddess of Chaos and Tempest

Written by Durzarina

Malum was the first to rise from The Everflow and begin to create. She started with gifts of Nature which grew to Tempest and eventually she gained the unwanted gift of Chaos.
Even though Malum rose first, she was the only one of the three that was not privy to the Everflow's designs of the mortals. Malum was created to be alone in love but, constantly surrounded by it. At first, she admired the love that Etain and Catos shared, for within that love bloomed many things for Zelestoria and in turn Malum created gifts for the couple.
But over time, Etain and Catos only had eyes for each other and neglected Malum, unlocking the Tempest inside her, forming from her Nature gifts.
Unhappy with the way she was being treated, Malum approached the couple and asked for them to include her and explained that this exclusion was making her feel isolated.
Catos replied with distain, even mocking her for not knowing and not following the design of the Everflow.
Overcome with rage, Malum sent the trio into a spiralling whorl of Everflow's mists and when it finally faded away- Malum looked into the sky and saw Etain as the Sun and Catos as the Moon.
Horrified by what she had done, Malum cried out only to feel just as lonely as she felt before. Malum tried her best to deal with everything by herself while Etain and Catos angrily watched over her from the sky.
But she realised that things were dying due to the trio's sulking- Etain was the first to apologies to Malum. After many months and some coaxing- Malum allowed Etain and Catos to converge together every four months which was later named The Ember Moon.
During this time the spherical couple then made their children: Kalan , Faerus , Erus and Andes.  Malum willingly handed over her Nature powers in order to keep the tempest and chaos under control.
Malum gazed upon a new day and found these four ready to help her. They all considered not telling her that they came from the Sun and Moon, but decided against it. Malum hid her sorrow and pain as yet again- the couple had created four beautiful children with powers of their own.

The Birth of Meldron

It was here that Malum turned to the Everflow and begged for someone to which they can make children together, but she was denied. Again, Malum's sorrow turned to anger as she tapped into Chaos- the Everflow's mists whorled around once again.
From Malum's tears and screams formed Meldron. He detached himself from the spiralling tempest of chaos and in his essence form began to collect the dead things and return it back to the Everflow.
A mix of confusion, exhaustion and happiness overcame Malum when she spotted Meldron and began to try and make a relationship to that of Etain and Catos. Meldron was polite to her advances though never repaid the gestures, Andes approached Meldron and and was brought to light of his birth.
Meldron told her that he saw her as a mother not a lover- and distanced himself from her for a time.

"Of course, since when have you known for Chaos to be and experience happiness?" - Malum

Now utterly alone, Malum was lost. With her fight for love gone, she finally she embraced the Everflow for a time and decided she would come back when they needed her most.
