SirDerpingtonIV
A Campfire at the End of Time
For uncounted eons, the Void had been nothing. Over time, energies had amassed within it, cosmic power taking the shape of beings. Of Gods. With a great burst of light that illuminated the whole of the universe, a flash of vibrant color that roared out into the emptiness at the speed of light. The first of the Gods had come into being, and was not alone for very long, before the others did as well, exploding to life with unimaginable power to fill the emptiness, until eventually, all the Gods had gathered that seemed as if they would, at least for now.
Great Gods of all sizes and shapes floated in the empty void beside one another, and for a few, long moments, there was silence. A Great Serpent, a great, haired beast, a god with no face, Gods in masks, gods with wings, a great white Dragon, and many more, all having come into existence at roughly the same time.
Vez'Arai, the Great Serpent reared up, shaking its head like a dog would to free itself of water, before turning its great, blue, glowing eyes down upon all gathered before it. The Void was eternal before this, and they were the first, the first of anything, really. The Serpent shuddered, and opened its jaws, a hundred, sharp teeth in its jaws, and a blue light in the yawning cavern of his throat, the light of some great power. The Serpent examined the others, its minds coming to terms with itself, with its own identity.
The great, elongated, hair-like fins of the Serpent floated about its head and back, drifting along behind the great creature as it moved, swirling around the other Gods, almost... adjusting to its size, to motion in general. It was a creature beyond comparrison, a leviathan of immense size whose coils could encircle the other Gods, whose motions almost parted the Void around it, its great eyes being of singular color, and reflecting, as if looking into the surface of azure water. Eventually, it spoke, in a voice that was deep, but surprisingly smooth, and almost noble, given its collossal body. "I am Vez'Arai, the Serpent, and I greet you all for the first time," There was no doubt the thing was capable of roars and growls, but its normal speaking voice was bearable. It lowered its head towards the rest of them, its lips shaking with the force of its exhale, a warm, blue mist forming in the void around it.
"I feel... a great hunger, an urge," the Serpent spoke, feeling with the core if its being an urge, to use its great powers to create. The being knew, almost instinctually, that its power was without definition, without limit. It knew as well, that the rest of them were similar, though it did not know their names. "This urge is a command that tells one to create, I shall partake in it." The great creature moved forward, its body slithering through the empty void. It turned its head back at them, jaw opening, that great light in its throat growing, before it turned away once more, and let loose a great beam of bluish light, which extended out about half the length of the creature's body, its end being a single, growing orb of similar color. It closed its mouth then, smoke pouring forth from its nostrils like the bellows of a great furnace, before it spoke once more.
"Here is the foundation for the great works of our future. Now, speak. Who are you all?"
