Blackness stretched endlessly around me, pierced only by a few distant stars, faint and glimmering far away. A universal fog swirled with colors and shapes I felt I had seen before.
Definitely something familiar.
And yet… in the very center of this expanding universe, this newborn beginning of life… there was someone.
Lying amidst the void, eyes barely open, as if their consciousness had only just begun to stir.
A soft, radiant light of violet shimmered in their gaze. Their hair spilled over their shoulders, a flowing mix of purple and silver that glimmered like universal fog, exactly like mine.
A sharp jawline, a body shaped differently from mine, unique in every contour.
"A male", I murmured to myself.
He twitched, moving his limbs slightly, adjusting to this strange new vessel. As I neared, he turned his head toward me, sensing my presence.
Our eyes met.
widened with surprise, his lips parting and closing as if testing the mechanics of speech. He was still learning what it meant to exist.
looks like his still hasn't the feeling of speaking yet. i took a place before him, looking at each other, i was the one who speaks first.
" ... Congratulation on your existence "
I said smiling warmly at the first existence like me.

Opening my eyes slightly.
A weird feeling rushes trough me, as i tries to move something on my surroundings, something that cling to me.
I shifted slightly, adjusting to this new feeling, to my existence.
Then—
A sudden rush of sensation surged through me, strange and electrifying. Something in the void responded, something alive... like my existence.
I tilted my head, drawn to it.
And then I saw them.
Golden bright hair that shines more than anything Ive seen so far. Long and tall. Cling all the way to their waist.
Deep Blue eyes glowing with a clarity and intensity that felt entirely new. another new thing to me.
A facial coordination that looked the most gorgeous thing Ive seen so far.
I could understand that this person is different than me, and i just wanted to be it
" Woo~"
the only thing that come from me and the first time Ive heard my voice... and the most thing ill be embarrassed about even after millions of years.

Watching his expression twist in confusion and curiosity, I understood exactly what was running through his mind.
"Hihi~~"
The sound bubbled out of me... my first laugh. A strange, tickling warmth spread through my stomach, and i liked it.
Suddenly, his expression shifted. His cheeks flushed a deep, unearthly red, a light sheen of sweat forming across his brow. He swallowed nervously, Shifting as if my presence were uncomfortable for him.
In that moment, I didn't fully realize what I had done. I had caused another being... one as extraordinary as myself—to feel embarrassment… as their very first sensation.

Years has passed. thousand of them. i spend this time chuckling and sleeping in my heavenly couch.
Not exactly sleeping, but attempting to imitate the rhythms of nature. I could sense that trees, flowers, and all living things doing the same. so tried to imitate them.
At first it was a weird ritual, but as time passed i could get used to it. even tho my eyes are closing, i still can feel my surroundings, Living forms and the Heart beat of the planet through the tree of life.
I kinda spent most of these years just sleeping. i didn't want to rush things, i wanted life to unfold by itself and there was already sings of it.
The Tree of Life bore fruit along its branches. Softly glowing, tinged with a gentle rosiness. and it taste just as it looks. a fruit that emerges from the tree of life, overflowing with life energy.
At the same time, a new different kinds of geography emerged through earth. Deep forests that developed by time to ancients forest, that contains a fair amount of mana.
High skies with Silents volcanoes of frost and rocks around it. kind a harsh place for living organism, but contain an extremely high quality mana.
Open Plain places, where you can call a normal geography location, with a decent amount of mana and life support energy.
And then there were places untouched by sunlight, these places were located far away from my own existence. the extreme south of the earth. The south pole.
Certain corners of the world became mana-rich sanctuaries, overflowing with raw energy, most of these places locates in the ancients forests. as well as some other few isolated places. and in this places exactly. the first conscious form of life appeared.
