The [[Arethara]], as descendants of the [[Cephareth]], believe in the initial emergence of [[Caelarkhe]], who emerged first as a primordial and paradoxically inclined agent of stasis that yet managed to influence all forms of life throughout the mortal plane and beyond. Upon the force's inception, there was a stability to the world, and [[Aya|spirits]] could come to know themselves along the polarities of Caelarkhe and the being's absence. Thus was born the [[Sorya]], who had become bound to Caelarkhe's light and stasis, thus producing an eternal sustenance, and the [[Novya]], who existed in exception to Caelarkhe but yet could only come to be because they knew that they were not like Caelarkhe. Then, the process of [[Auroris, the Binding Bloodshed|Auroris]] would begin, as the Novya, who were beings of chaos and change, causally affected the Sorya who nonetheless managed to remain perfectly intact and eternal in their being. This action caused the Sorya to bleed, and from the ethereal blood came perfect soul and vitality, and it then mingled with the diametrically positioned void to create the [[Aurya]], who were bound to the place in which the blood first became diluted so that new sources of power and being could emerge. The first of the Aurya to become were the ancestors of the Arethara and all elven peoples, the Cephareth, and they incarnated into the forms that were most reminiscent of the Sorya and their great being. The Cephareth retained the gifts of the light, having crystallized into existence simply by the token of their trapping of the Soryi blood within them and their being. This event is referred to as [[Auroris, the Binding Bloodshed|Auroris, the binding bloodshed]], and is found in greater detail at this given link.\\ | The [[Arethara]], as descendants of the [[Cephareth]], believe in the initial emergence of [[Caelarkhe]], who emerged first as a primordial and paradoxically inclined agent of stasis that yet managed to influence all forms of life throughout the mortal plane and beyond.
