In the beginning, there was oblivion. From oblivion, there sprang Order and Chaos, and oblivion ceased to exist, for oblivion was given purport. Order was embodied in one. This one *was*, when he gave himself a name, and with it, meaning. His name was the verbalization of the very essence he witnessed when the world was created, Le Bob, but he bore many other names, of whom Pearl of Perfection and Jewel of Justice were most renowned.

But Chaos died soon, for each of his limbs sought power, and there lacked sodality. Chaos was sundered, and from the sundering, many chaosspawns there came,

So Le Bob and the chaosspawns coalesced in the multiverse, and the tension betwixt both was yet not perceivable. But both fancied a world, Le Bob of peace and perfection, and the chaosspawns of slavery and vice. Their fancy grew in strength, until in a sudden, a world took shape,

When they witnessed their creation, they were not content, for both perfection and vice were infused in this world. Many people this world bore, but neither evil nor good they were, for they were not yet named, and were as empty as the oblivion, and the world’s very nature was neutral,

Of the chaosspawns, many descended to this world, and some are worthy to be mentioned. Not by their names, though, for they are wordless,

First, there was the Combined, for two of Chaos’ limbs rejoined after the sundering, hungering for dominion. He came upon barren lands, were his lies were received by its inhabitants, and he feigned rectitude, and a crown embellished his cranium, and white walls protected him from the piercing gloom of Order’s Eyes, and myriads of barbarians hearkened, and obeyed, his will,

Secondly, one descended into the very earth, and he was called the Earthen. In the earth he thought to elude the ineluctable, Order’s Wrath. Thence, he bred a race of myrmidons who hearkened only to his will, for they lacked one of their own. This race was as harsh as the very stone they were carved from, and they feared Le Bob, and hated him, for the Earthen feared and hated Le Bob,

Thus the slaves of the Combined were called Gondorians, which means Nadir or Intelligence. And the minions of the Earthen were named Dwarves, meaning Foodbarbarians, and thus the marring of the world began,
