In the beginning, there was the Goddess of Creation, and her name was Thought. Thought created the Universe, the Heavens, and all things that exist. Her Children were known as the Emotions and Elements—divine gods and goddesses who were her pride and love. She spoiled them and gave them an entire world of their own—called Cousera—and decorated it with lesser life and beauty for them to rule and frolic about in. The Universe was perfect.
This was until the Children fell under each other, and began to dispute. They fought, and all of a sudden the perfect harmony was broken. Thought begged for her Children to stop, but they refused. She wept, and finally, with sudden resolve, Thought took Cousera away from her Children. To punish them, she destroyed the world, re-created it, and turned all life mortal and bloody. To show them the futility of their feuds, Thought gifted lesser animals with Consciousness, and cursed them to meaninglessly hunt, hurt, kill, and maim each other for the rest of eternity. Hence forth, life on Mortal Symbiosis began.
There was unending war. The sun rose in the East, and violence plagued the dry lands. The arctic breath chilled the North, and hatred bittered the frozen slopes. A delicate splintering hourglass seemed to linger above the South, and bloody shadows lined the forests of the West. War ripped apart Cousera, and the microcosm Thought had created was an artwork of discordant and clashing, fragile threads. A slaughterhouse of conflict happened in this mortal world—this snow globe microcosm that was Thought’s ultimate parody of hate.
It is present day. One hundred thousand seasons later, four empires have emerged on the hill. They seem fully content with killing each other, and deep shadows line the breaks of peace. A sinister force is arising—twelve moons ago, seventeen of the imperial Northern family were assassinated. Lords, kings, and queens are vanishing into thin air, and the rigid norms of society one hundred-thousand-seasons-old are cracking. Something is changing, and the delicate Symbiosis of our world threatens to shatter.
