Majesty of Light

Jun 30, 2014, 06:14 am

There was void. Cold and empty. It was not dark, for there was no concept of light to compare it to. There was just an absence of all things.

Then there was not. Two beings stirred in the void and looked at each other from across the distance. One was a beacon of Light, the other a beacon of Darkness. They were not good and evil, for such things were not yet imagined by mortal or god. The God of Darkness surrounded his Sanctum in Earth to protect it from the harsh light of the other. The God of Light wreathed his Sanctum in flames to protect it from the encroaching darkness.

They saw their creations and were not yet content. They decided that, together they could create something beautiful. A thing of both darkness and light. Together they toiled and worked on the Moon. Before this work was complete, however, it disappeared. There was only the two, so each knew the other was to blame and retreated to his Sanctum to consider what to do next.

*Pretty!* Bard/Philosopher

Actions:

In the Darkness of the Citadel of Earth, a black-haired female figure appears. She wears the moon around her neck.

“Greetings, Lord of Earth. I must say, You’ve done well for Yourself. You are a beacon in the void! Oh… this? This was a gift to me from the King of Heaven! Isn’t it lovely? He said I could live on the Moon that He made, and now I am the Mistress of the Moon. In return, I traded Him a Mantle of Stars to keep Him warm in the Darkness over which you preside, and He named me Keeper of the Night. Stole it? I did no such thing, my Lord. It was a gift! … Oh, You say it was Yours as well? How funny, The King of Heaven didn’t mention that to me. Well, perhaps I can give You something to offset Your loss. Here, take this.”

Actions:

The Mistress of the Moon waves her hand, and the seas rise to meet the land.

“As a gesture of my friendship and love, take these oceans. Let the connection between the tides and the Moon You have given me symbolize our connection, and my gratitude for Your gift. The seas will keep Your beloved Earth cool, and shelter her from the hot rays of the sun. I ask in return that You allow me to be Lady of the Sea, since my moon will have dominion over the movement of Your oceans. What do You think? Does my gift satisfy You?”

Actions:

She smiles generously and extends her hand, awaiting a response.

*Pretty!* Bard/Philosopher

Actions:

In the blazing Light of the Citadel of the Sun, a golden-haired female figure appears. She wears the moon around her wrist.

“Greetings, King of Heaven. I must say, You’ve done well for Yourself. You are a beacon in the void! Oh… this? This was a gift to me from the Lord of the Earth! Isn’t it lovely? He said I could live on the Moon that He made, and now I am Mistress of the Moon. In return, I traded Him great oceans to protect His beloved Earth from scorching under your brilliance, and He named me Lady of the Sea, giving the Moon dominion over the tides. Stole it? I did no such thing, your Grace. It was a gift! … Oh, You say it was Yours as well? How funny, the Lord of Earth didn’t mention that to me. Well. Perhaps I can give You something to offset Your loss. How would that be? Here, take this.”

Actions:

The Mistress of the Moon waves her hand, and a great mantle of stars envelope the King of Heaven, and billions of twinkling lights spill across the sky, surrounding his citadel.

“As a gesture of my friendship and love, take this mantle of stars. Let us share the skies, my citadel and yours, and allow their light to keep us warm in the cold Darkness over which the Lord of Earth presides. I ask in return that You simply name me Keeper of the Night, since my Citadel will shine at night, when You are away. What do You think? Does my gift satisfy you?”

Actions:

She smiles generously and extends her hand, awaiting a response.

*Pretty!* Bard/Philosopher

Actions:

The Mistress of the Moon, the Lady of the Seas, the Keeper of the Night retreats to her Moon, and is pleased with her handiwork.

They each now think of me as a loving friend, and a bearer of great gifts. Perhaps I will be those things – I’ve not yet decided. But now, I need my own Citadel! A place where my new friends may visit me and give me gifts and names and power. It will be a grand place.

Actions:

[5 AP Imagine Plane: Mare Ingenii]
A three layer plane, home to the Lady and her court. The first layer is the Sea of Pearls, a luminous body of water populated entirely by kelp and oysters whose pleasure it is to make pearls to adorn the Mistress of the Moon. Guests to her plane are encouraged to bathe or go diving here. The second layer is the everlasting banquet, where the Lady greets all guests warmly with a generous feast that is renewed every evening as the sun descends and the moon reigns over the evening sky. The final layer of this plane is the Lady’s actual homeland and the location of her [2 AP Weave Sanctum] Sanctum, a pearlescent open air bungalow on the edge of Mare Ingenii. The only inhabitants of this layer of the sanctum are her prolific, numerous [1AP: Create mundane life] pet rabbits, honored guests, and occasional consorts.
