History

The First Creation

Two immortal beings who carried the essence of life in their being were lovers. One was named Andyr, a god, while the other was Nguya, a goddess.

Andyr was a serene god who travel carelessly across the stars and the sky, following wherever his whim would take him only to return beside his lover with things that he would gather in his travels. Nguya was a crafter who sough to give shape and form but lacked the right materials. Even the things that Andyr would bring back from his travels were imperemenant to be used to create something out of.

Then there was a third god called Hyruk. Unlike Andyr, he was an aggresive god, impatient and wild but he had an answer to what Nguya had sought. While Andyr was away in one of his travels, Hyruk visited Nguya and shared his solution. He told her that all the materials that Andyr brought back were useless unless he breathed his essence into them. Only by his breath that those materials would become solid and so they can be moulded to take a permenant shape and form.

When Andyr returned and gave Nguya a piece of a cold star, she was unable to give shape to it. When Andyr left again, Nguya took the cold star and presented it to Hyruk for him to prove that his method would work. Hyruk breathed into the star and it shone brilliantly, it started emitting an intense heat that deformed its original shape. Nguya manipulated the liquidating star and use her own flesh as a mould for it to take shape. As a result, the star had taken into a new form with its brilliant heat retained in its core. Nguya had created an everburning forge from which all forms of creation can begin.

When Andyr returned and found that Nguya had created a sun from his cold star, he thought that their love had finally given a shape to life. Little did he know that Nguya had betrayed him and it was through the help of Hyruk that she was able to succeed. With her newfound forge, Nguya was able to create new shapes from every material that Andyr returns with. She had created solid rocks, beautiful gems and tough ores but during each of her creations, residues of soil and sand would emerge like ashes. As a sign of gratitude, she would give some of her creations as gifts to Hyruk as a tribute to him

Hyruk was an all-consuming god and soon after the tributes that Nguya presented to him were slowing becoming disatisfying. He grew hungry for Nguya's works but needed more to make him stronger. In an angry fit, he stormed and confronted Nguya while she was with Andyr. Hyruk demanded that Nguya gave him all her creations and return the forge that she had gave her. It was then revealed to Andyr that it was not because that he was able to bring the right materials to Nguya but she had been able to create shapes because of Hyruk.

When Hyruk wanted to wrest the forge away from Nguya, Andyr even though heartbroken put himself in harms way and was torn apart by Hyruk in order to save Nguya. Andyr's blood was splattered on all of Nguya's creations, including the soil and sand that were piled around them and Hyruk's body. As the blood touches Hyruk, it burned him painfully like acid and forced him to flee away. Nguya desperately tried to save Andyr but his essence were slipping from him far too greatly to be able to remain as an immortal for long as blood continued to stream around her precious creations. In his dying words, Andyr said that his blood would carry his essence and take a new form of immortality while his current shell would rot away.

As Andyr finally dies and Nguya wept over his broke body, something began to happen to her creations. While the rocks, gems and ores remain unchanged, the soil began to sprout a new form of life. When Nguya saw this, she gathered all the soil that she can and form canals in them for the blood of Andyr to flow through them. As the soils and sands were too soft to hold onto the shape of the canals, Nguya quickly buried her rocks, gems and ores beneath them to give them support. She also formed a spine out of her rocks, ores and gems in the middle to support those buried underneath As Andyr's blood continued to flow through the canals, more life began to spring from the soil bed to cover and shade the other creations from the brilliance of the forge which it recognised as Hyruk attempting to steal all her creations. Andyr's words became true and it was through his blood that would allow Nguya to create more things than with the forge itself.

Thus the land was borned and the first creation was known as Andyronya, meaning 'married to the blood and flesh'.

The Second Creation

The first life to take upon Andyronya were the plants which were also granted sentience from the blood of Andyr. Treants, dryards and other plant-like creature first emerged and festered on the land. Seeing sentience in these lifeforms, Nguya was intrigued and proceeded to use this as the new platform for her next creation; creatures made from flesh and bones. She populated the forest with all kinds of beast and animals that had sentience unicorns, sphinx,
