In the beginning, there was only darkness and the one lump of clay known as Gaia Nexus. The great creator, whose name is known to none but to the gods, split his breast with his inscisors and dripped his life-blood over the form. The blood turned dark and hardened, securing a hard layer over the cool base. From then, he made the God Pontious and assigned him the provider for Gaia Nexus. He then made him a suitable opposite, a bringer of death, one who dispises the heat of Pontius so much that he is drawn to it like a moth to a flame. This other god, known only by Pontious was the lover of the other, though both were male- It wasn't taboo, much as it is in other places, when genders gathered at pair for love. So the two started with new, allowing Pontious to test the powers of life bestowed to him by the creator before Death swooped to take it back. Their love was almost undetectable, and it come to a time where other gods came, that the two appeared to be swarn enemies.
Pontious' tears of regret and hate formed the kelpies and the goddess behind them all. She controled the rain, the floods, and even the great sea. There is little that could hold back her wrath.
Air from the hitched breath of his barrel bore the wind god in his berth. The monster was known as the sibling to water, and was behind the chaos of wind storms, typhoons, tornadoes, and gales. Slow to anger, these catastrophies are only brought by rejection.
Earth from in his hooves created the strongheaded god of the Earth. He was thought to be the lover of water, since they do not destroy one another, but simply live in their own bounds. His location was rarely known, since he dwells beneath the skin of the earth, in the flesh of the terra itself.
And then, the fire from Pontious' smoldering heart brought the Goddess of Fire. She was the keep of the sun, and her job was just a crucial to the world as those of the other gods.
As time went by, the four children of Pontious quarreled and fueded on and on, dominating the world in fire, earth, water and windy wastes. It became enough that Death gave up upon the word of Gaia Nexus. He retreated to its core, leaving ways for the two lovers to meet when the fighting was light. Pontius was soon enraged by the four cheif elementals that he stuck them down to the terra and forced them to come together in mortal conference. What came were demigods, children of the elementals who served another role. Earth and Water birthed nature; Fire and Earth wrought the creation of new land, wind and water beacem weather, and wind and fire, the passing summer who ran with wind, heating the world on passing breezes. Before their ajoured, it also came to be that Gaia Nexus would be referred to as Santro, and those who lived and ruled upon it would be Equine. Then, after their staple creation, they made the allies and enemies of the horse, who lived to parter with or slay the first species.
Then, after all of the conflict faded and life was planted, all the celestail beings left earth again to rule from above, ensuring Santro would see them on its earthen flank again.
