“Before time was measured, and before the stars sang their songs, there was only the Veil — an endless sea of silence.”
Before existence, there was The Veil, a realm of pure potential — neither light nor dark, neither still nor moving. Within this formless void stirred a presence, timeless and eternal, known only as The First Breath.
From this Breath came creation, not by will, but by necessity. Like pressure building until it must be released, The First Breath exhaled, and from that exhalation came the Eternals.
Born of divine essence, the Eternals were the first beings — not gods, but primal forces. Each embodied a fundamental law of existence:
Together, the Eternals shaped the first World, a realm called Odramir.
Odramir was sculpted from raw elemental magic. The Eternals formed mountains from flame, seas from memory, skies from freedom, and gave it all rhythm through light and shadow.
But in their creation, they grew ambitious. They desired witnesses to marvel at their work, and thus they made Velari — the first mortal race, crafted in their image but gifted with free will.
