| Before the seeds from which creation would sprout from had even begun to exist, before anything had come to perceive itself in its deeds of consciousness, there were many worlds that were without the presence and fullness of the light, and their abundances were in change and death rather than stasis and immortality. Nevertheless, traces of existence and perceptible energy swirled around in the empty blackness, and they inhabited within converging and ephemeral forms and shapes that were far from elven and divine, though primordial they were. These traces, being unconscious, comatose, and lacking in perceptible being or characteristic, are referred to by our people as simply the [[pantheons:class:aya|Aya]], the original spirits who, though not possessing identity or a differentiating psyche from any of their others, were composed of the pure power and potentiality from which all beings of the worlds of modernity would emerge from and resemble in their deeds. These original spirits of the Aya would only come to resemble themselves in their modern forms with the emergence of a duality, a cleaving act by forces higher than they that would rend asunder the worlds into two sets of essential characteristics and features, with their however being many littered between their polarities. In time, there would be identified a celestial principle which had facilitated this cleaving, and this force’s name identified by the elven peoples of today as [[pantheons:deities:caelarkhe|Caelarkhe]], the principle of stasis and order which descended into the chaos and provided structure and stability.\\ | Before the seeds from which creation would sprout from had even begun to exist, before anything had come to perceive itself in its deeds of consciousness, there were many worlds that were without the presence and fullness of the light, and their abundances were in change and death rather than stasis and immortality.

| In this world from which echoes remain, the Aya were composed of the metaphysical substance of pure energy and raw mana, though lacking in conscious identity and essential being as there was no stability from which they could come to know themselves as disparate from each other. The emergence of the stasis and order of Caelarkhe into the worlds of chaos, however, allowed for these powers to identify themselves, and thus, Caelarkhe was the agent by which the seeds of creation could come into existence through the spirits of the Aya. Thus, the first disparity, observed between the light and the darkness, was born, and Aya could then identify with these polarities by which every object existed in relation to. Though many of the Aya had come to identify solely with the chaos that had ruled in the times of before, some of these of the Aya had become bound to Caelarkhe’s light, and they, with their familial others, gave rise to the plane of [[:avaerus|Avaerus]], belonging to worlds of eternal sustenance and immortal light.\\ | In this world from which echoes remain, the Aya were composed of the metaphysical substance of pure energy and raw mana, though lacking in conscious identity and essential being as there was no stability from which they could come to know themselves as disparate from each other.

| From the Aurya came the mortal plane of Aurius, as each of them found themselves in the place between the light and the dark and had chosen to become and incarnate into their quintessential formats, and it was there that their abodes would be. Though lacking unity as a result of their not gathering around the polarities of the light and the dark, the powers developed and emerged into a conscious form that indicated a certain gift in the manipulation of the original Aya, who possessed the full potentiality that the succeeding spirits had actualized. Accordingly, the Aurya, though being also of a metaphysical substance of swirling and ephemeral energy which had taken on both aspects of the light and the dark, could come into themselves again in shape as a result of Caelarkhe and its stability, and their powers were not limited to merely the stasis and life force of the light or the chaos and change of the dark, but had both aspects. Thus, the Aurya were composed of the same powers of the original Aya except that they had a foundation to emerge from, allowing their consciousness to develop.\\ | From the Aurya came the mortal plane of Aurius, as each of them found themselves in the place between the light and the dark and had chosen to become and incarnate into their quintessential formats, and it was there that their abodes would be.

| In this era, our ancestors, the first incarnated powers of the Aurya, the [[pantheons:class:cephareth|Cephareth]], had emerged as the dominant aspects of the mortal plane, and it was through Caelarkhe that they had developed and crystallized apart from all of the energies of the Aurya. Thus, they had encapsulated within themselves Caelarkhe’s light, and were thus powers that possessed a certain longevity as a result of the aspects of immortality and stasis which Caelarkhe possessed. These ancestors were the firstborn of the Aurya, and they had only been allowed to have shape and form because of the celestial principle, and so, they began to worship Caelarkhe as a transcendent force that they ought to preserve among the mortal plane, a practice which would be inherited by our people, the Arethara. Then, the Cephareth would found [[planes:aurius:arethayn|Arethayn]], and supplant its innate formation in order for it to grow into a land of its own, and from which they could hail.\\ | In this era, our ancestors, the first incarnated powers of the Aurya, the [[pantheons:class:cephareth|Cephareth]], had emerged as the dominant aspects of the mortal plane, and it was through Caelarkhe that they had developed and crystallized apart from all of the energies of the Aurya.

| Eventually, the process of Auroris would falter, and Caelarkhe’s will was retreating back into Avaerus so that its stability and foundation could no longer be utilized by the spirits of the mortal plane. This triggered the current period of isolation for the Cephareth of Arethayn, as they looked down upon the Auryi beings which had incarnated not by the quintessence of Caelarkhe, but by the will of those in exception to Caelarkhe, the Novya. These beings were various though possessing some similitude of shape and resemblance to each being of Arethayn as a result of their shared descent from the forms, but Arethayn’s incarnations were strikingly more divine and magically gifted than those of the rest of Aurius. Thus, the Cephareth constructed their walls around Arethayn, and sought to preserve Caelarkhe where they could so that they and their descendants might know immortality. | Eventually, the process of Auroris would falter, and Caelarkhe’s will was retreating back into Avaerus so that its stability and foundation could no longer be utilized by the spirits of the mortal plane.
