From before the time of you or I,

Was a Time when the world first fell,

Though now a Shell,

Two beings came to it,

They were not known then and only known later.

For they were when were and was Time

For they were here, there and where Space

And by the will and efforts of these two, this world came anew, 

as a shell of the previous world, they brought forth life anew,

and from this ash,

came the firstborn, the swirling Chaos and the defined Order,

Chaos brought forth possibility and growth, as things begin to descend into new ways of existence,

from these new forms of existence, Order ensured they became stable and did not obstruct each other, as they allowed

the secondborn to come into existence,

the Light and the Darkness

The light, proud of its place, ready to show its worth,

The darkness, pessimistic and afraid of all, ready to hide from those who might watch,

and from their clash, as they wrestled to find a compromise,

the light wishing the darkness to come into the spotlight, while the darkness wishes to recede into the mist,

came the beings of Life and Death,

the every vibrant, the ever wild and ever-growing, the proud child of Chaos, Life

the ever strict, the ever defined, ending of others, the quiet child of Order, Death

As they set the boundaries of the world and their children,

caused the world to become active,

from which came the waves that eroded and crashed into the earth, 

by which came the shifting of the muddy plates from where the earth moved to reveal,

the noxious plumes of magma, the smoldering of heat and fire, as it stirs the air,

which births the whirlwinds of the sky that continue to rush and blow and stir,

Each forming to become an element, and together they were,

Water, Earth, Fire, and Wind

As the world started to return on course, as a final act to ensure that it would fall no longer,

they created the first two races, to help manage things before the first true sapient races came into being,

these two races were vastly different, yet vital in similar ways, to the world,

the spirits and the elementals.

with a last flourish, they established the rules of the universe,

rules that which echo throughout history to this day,

rules that which mortal, divine and primordial races would abide and learn from, 

once done with their work, these great beings of elements, left, choosing to let those who come after,

decide for themselves the fate of themselves, of their lands, and their world.

this was the start of the world, 

that would come to be known as the world of Anima,

and the place where an endless war now is waged.~
