Creation
Three accounts of the beginning survive, and none of them claims to come first.
Zet tries to reunite a mind whose other fragments have turned creation toward war.
Three accounts of the beginning survive, and none of them claims to come first. In one, the Titans stood near the Beginning, perhaps witnesses to creation and perhaps born while it still echoed, and set about shaping matter, themselves and reality. In another, a single primordial mind fragmented as the universe came into being; two of its pieces, and , turned creation toward their war, while a third, , tried to restore the unity that was lost.
In a third, the ancient were bound in a primordial harmony until walked out of the Fundamental plane, and Io and Enigma keep their own memories of the Schism. Whether these were one event seen from three sides, three stages of one long dawn, or three beginnings that never touched, no teller says. They stand side by side.
Three origin accounts, told side by side; no single creation reconciles them.
The thread continues at Zet's bargain, where the third fragment starts recruiting for its answer to the Ancients.
