First there was Chaos.

Second there was Something and Nothing.

Third there was Dark and Light.

It is said that the Something and the Nothing would fight
and that, the Dark and Light would fight also.

This being told to me by a monk of Valriel , no longer in the order.

It is said that of the four primary elements

there is earth which is

there is water which changes

there is air which moves

there is fire which consumes

When Mother Earth was suckling her children

sky suckled from her right teat

but flame and sea fought to suckle from her left teat

this is why they still fight to this day …
