It was said that Heaven created the Earth, but some believed that the Earth
was created for Heaven. Lying beneath the sky, it was to provide a stark
contrast to what all living beings considered “paradise.”
The Earth was imperfect. If anything, it was imperfect for its mortality. No one
knew exactly when Heaven was created, but a few of the gods knew when the Earth
had been born. Heaven was timeless, the Earth had a beginning and would have an
end.
But the perfection of Heaven was marred. Not all who resided there could claim
to be blameless. Born without sin, they accumulated it themselves as they lived
their eternal lives. Corruption began to grow in the divine government that was
supposed to know no bias.
Residents of Heaven who hated the debacle looked down to the Earth, and saw the
perfection in imperfection. Instead of praying to God, they prayed to the Earth,
hoping that it would remain as it was and be the light that they had lost in the
celestial heights.
And one day, the Earth heard those wishes and prayers, from both its own
children and those who watched over from above. The Earth gathered itself
together to create a physical manifestation of itself. Hatched from a rock on a
mountain, the Earth now had a body – and a voice.
Heaven, not wanting to be far from the Earth, took the child into their folds,
claiming he was an imperfection that could Not Be Allowed. Yet, they kept him
alive. They could not kill him. They were fascinated by him, and yet they
shunned him.
In the end, when they had tried to kill the Earth’s child, they had paid the
price.
The Earth was not happy with Heaven. If Heaven continued to treat others and
their child in the same manner, then the Earth would take matters into its own
hands.
Then one day the Earth saw its solution. Another being, so much like the Child,
did not like Heaven. He had found the tools used to create the world, and was
trying to make a new one. He needed the Earth’s power to do so, and so borrowed
the Child to open the door to Creation.
It shown like a surreal light, and the Earth realized that it had found its
solution.
Heaven would pay for what it did to its Child. The Earth would remake the world
in its own image, where imperfection was the perfection. It would get its
revenge. And in the end, the Child would become the new world’s King.
