[QUOTE="LordVyreth, post: 1517171, member: 9626"] [b]Interlude: Excerpts of the Goddesses Part 1[/b] In order to better capture the nature of the world and the goddesses, I wrote up a bit of the holy texts of each of the eleven sisters and gavet hem to the party. The excerpts told the complete story of the origins of the universe by the goddesses, or at least as it was told by the church. Each excerpt captured the personality and nature of the goddess that the book was based on. The first one they got was of the book of Bha-Ael, the creator goddess that ruled the pantheon. I'll probably post others as I go, usually when I can't post a regular update that day. The Creation of the Universe (Excerpt from the Book of Bha-Ael) And in these times, there was nothing but Bha-Ael And Bha-Ael, in her all-encompassing wisdom, ordered the creation of the universe. All the forces of the universe formed as by her wishes And her will was done. Then, Bha-Ael knew that the universe was useless unless it was inhabited So that others may know of the works of Bha-Ael and be glad. Bha-Ael again spoke to the forces of the universe, and ordered the creation of life. Again, the forces complied with her will, and life was brought about. However, Bha-Ael realized that living beings could no fully appreciate her works For their minds were simple, and lacked advanced thought and emotion. Bha-Ael, to better maintain the order of the universe, would not give them this herself. And she knew that a link was needed between her and her people. Bha-Ael, in her infinite mercy, chose to sacrifice of her own power. In doing so, she would bring about others who could understand her people better. These others would watch the people of the world, and bestow upon them gifts And the first of the Sisters was born. [/QUOTE]
