Cosmic Dawn
Eon I – Primordial Thought (“Before Time”)
The universe exists as a single perfect Idea on the Astral Plane, birthing the concepts of Positive and Negative.
Eon II – The Great Collision (“The Moment of Becoming”)
Positive and Negative energies collide, creating all matter, energy, space, and time.
Eon III – Birth of the Astral Plane
A new realm of pure energy springs into being, linking the emerging Positive and Negative Planes.
Eon IV – Emergence of the Elder Gods
Echoes of the Primordial Thought coalesce into the first sentient deities, who forge cosmic law, magic, and the blueprint for all planes.
Eon I – Primordial Thought “Before Time”
Long before the first spark of light or echo of sound, the cosmos was but a unity of potential: a single, perfect Idea suspended in the infinite quiet of the Astral depths. This was the Primordial Thought—pure consciousness unbound by time or space, shimmering with latent possibility.
The Stirring of Consciousness
- The First Ripple
In the boundless silence, an infinitesimal quiver passed through the void. This initial stirring was the Primordial Thought awakening to self-awareness—the moment consciousness first recognized its own existence. - Awakening Awareness
From this quiver blossomed a nascent “I,” an awareness that could perceive only itself, yet sensed the emptiness around it. This self-reflection planted the seed of all future thought and action.
Birth of Duality
- Positive and Negative
To understand itself, the Primordial Thought cast forth two mirror-concepts: Positive, the impulse to create, to unite, to bring forth; and Negative, the impulse to dissolve, to sever, to return all things to the void. These twin principles emerged as the first law of all existence: that every action must find its counterpoint. - Harmony of Opposites
Though opposed in nature, these two currents circled one another in perfect balance, giving shape to the idea of equilibrium. Their interplay would later echo through galaxies and lives alike.
Weaving the Astral Currents
- The First Patterns
As Positive and Negative danced, their vibrations wove ripples across the Astral Plane—threads of pure thought that shimmered like silken veils. These nascent currents formed the very scaffolding upon which space, time, and possibility would later be hung. - Blueprints of Reality
Within these currents lay the blueprints for every realm yet unimagined, a cosmic lattice of potentiality that carried the promise of stars, worlds, and minds.
Legacy of the Primordial Thought
- The awakening of the Primordial Thought stands as the true “genesis” of all that followed. Without its first flicker of self-awareness, no law could bind matter, no realm could take root, no spark of life or magic could ever ignite.
- It is remembered in myth as the moment “Before Time,” when thought itself became the wellspring from which the multiverse would spring. In every star we see, every word we speak, the echo of that first Thought still resonates—a reminder that all existence began in a single, silent Idea.
Eon II – The Great Collision “The Great Collision”
The Big-Bang-like shattering of Primordial Thought into positive and negative energies.
- The equilibrium between positive and negative energies was shattered in a cataclysmic event known as the Great Collision.
- The collision unleashed the Big Bang-like explosion that created all matter, energy, space, and time.
- From the collision, the Positive Energy Plane (realm of light, life, and creation) and the Negative Energy Plane (realm of darkness, entropy, and destruction) sprang into existence, tethered to the universe by White Holes and Black Holes.
Eon III – The Birth of the Astral Plane “Birth of the Astral Plane”
Pure energy realms form, giving rise to sentience.
- The intense clash of forces birthed the Astral Plane:
- A luminous sea of pure, flowing energy bridging the Positive and Negative Planes.
- Described as the connective fabric of the multiverse.
- The Astral Plane became the cosmic stage upon which existence would evolve.
“Gods Arise, Order vs Chaos”
Eon IV – Emergence of the Elder Gods
Having shaped the Astral currents into the first bridge between mind and matter, the Primordial Thought rippled into countless sparks of sentience. From these astral embers rose the Elder Gods—ancient echoes of that first thought, each a living facet of the universe’s potential.
Shaping Reality from Dream
- In their earliest moments, these astral forerunners tested one another in currents of pure will, discovering that thought could embody form.
- United by purpose, they learned to draw raw astral energy into waking patterns—laying down the first templates of shape, law, and possibility.
- Though nameless to later mortals, each Elder God would come to personify a cosmic principle—Time, Night, Fate, Darkness, Light, and countless others—together weaving the first codices of existence.
Forging the Foundations
- The Elder Gods codified the primal laws of cohesion and flow, anchoring the equations of star-birth, the rhythms of day and night, and the unbreakable bonds of cause and effect.
- They wove the primal filaments of magic into the cosmic tapestry—binding every particle and spirit to the power of thought made manifest.
- With a gesture of divine will, they sketched the outlines of planes yet unborn, planting the seeds of realms where balance, conflict, neutrality, and wonder could someday bloom.
Legacies of the First Divinities
- As their work matured, the Elder Gods retreated to the heights of the Astral, entrusting the raw realms to newly fashioned stewards and archons.
- Some slumber in hidden astral depths, awaiting the call of creation’s renewal; others fractured into concepts—Hope, Despair, Wonder—that would echo through every age.
- Though they would seldom step into the worlds they shaped, the Elder Gods’ legacy endures in every star’s birth, every spark of spellcraft, and every heartbeat of the multiverse.
