Once upon a time, at the dawning of creation, the Terra Goddess Vydite walked her barren planet shrouded in perpetual darkness terribly alone. Until one day shimmering rays of light began to break through the ashen sky. The stormy and restless cloud dispersed, her barren planet illuminated by a shining brilliance. HIS shining brilliance. He was brilliant, aspiring, confident, powerful, and captivating. For the first time in both their lives they were no longer alone in this universe. Like from a fairy-tale they fell in love at the first sight of each other. After meeting Ymas, Vydite leisurely spent all day with him. They past the time whispering sweet nothings, and discussing their hopes and dreams.
As the day began to come to and end, they both experienced the sight of eternal darkness eating away at the bright sky. Hungrily it ate away at the Sky god's radiating light until the newly found lovers found themselves separated once again, leaving Vydite in tears. Shielding her face from the horror Vydite wailed sorrowfully at the sudden death of her love, and the return of the darkness which she despised so much. Until a voice shyly rang in her ears "Why are you crying?" to which Vydite looked up to find the abyss littered with twinkling lights and a mysterious woman gazing down at her. The woman strangely resembled herself, as if they were sisters, and her presence was comforting.
"I am scared of the dark." Vydite shuddered as she stuttered, cheeks wet from tears.
The woman, graceful and kind wiped the tears away as she spoke. "You neednt fret, for my friends and I will always be the light to protect you from the darkness."
Both goddesses spent the entire night together, the poised, youthful moon goddess Aphine sharing her unending wisdom and creativity. While Vydite overcame her fears with Aphine, demonstrating her strength and will. At the end of night Aphine began to fade away, as the Sun God Ymas began to return to the sky. In a specific time where the both the moon and the sun graced the sky, fate planted her dark seed with in Aphine. Watching Vydite and Ymas swoon for each other made Aphine feel out of place. With each passing day Aphine's heart began to ache with an incredible loneliness for she had fallen in love with Vydite. With each passing day fate's seed, a seed of darkness, sprouted and continued to grow. It grew and grew until it's thorns poisoned Aphine's heart and soul.
When it was Ymas' time to descend in the horizon, Aphine struck him. The two fought much to Vydite's horror. As the battle raged on, Ymas got weaker and weaker, Aphine practically sucking the life out of him. Right before the final blow, Ymas realizing that this would be the end of him, blessed Vydite with a parting gift. A part of his remaining energy fell from him, and struck Vydite's body. An incredible wave of warmth filled her body, she could feel all of Ymas' love for her in that instant. Then her own feelings overcame her as she watched Aphine struck the Sun god with her final blow, and the light vanished from the sky.
As further punishment, Aphine did not rise in the night sky. Vydite truly alone once again with nothing but the distant stars twinkling in the sky to comfort her. Several months passed, and Vydite could feel her body go weaker and weaker with each passing day. Eventually she lay there shriveled and dead, her body lost to time. As she took in her last breath, a bright pulse of energy left her body and into the terra. Using her body as nourishment a single tree grew, eventually swallowing Vydite's entire body whole.
Aphine, completely aghast, thought the tree to be a gift from Vydite who yearned for Aphine's forgiveness. Visiting the tree, she ran her fingers against the smooth bark as she marveled in its beauty. Aphine noticed that the tree was oddly fatter in the middle, and when she knocked her knuckles against the tree it sounded hallow. The sudden noise startled that which lay inside the tree, and a shrieking cry of something rang out from it. Startled herself, yet perplexed and curious, Aphine split open the tree and her poisoned icy heart melted at the sight of two beautiful twin babies crying in desperation for anyone to love them.
Taking responsibility she raised both children as her own, refusing to tell them of who their actual parents are and what happened those many years ago. As the children grew older, one twin became the new sun god which lit up the sky, and the other....well...she wasn't exactly sure what the other child was for. The young girl certainly had a strange connection to the tree which she was born from, and Aphine worried if one day Eltrix would start to ask questions. They both started to notice the little things, like how they looked nothing like their mother Alphine. Why were they born from a tree, and why wouldn't Alphine tell them anything. Eventually, Alphine unable to keep everything to herself told them what had happened, and much to their surprise both of them handled it pretty well. Of course, Alphine may have twisted the story a little so she wouldn't look as horrible in their eyes, but it was mostly the same.
Unfortunately, while one child may have handled it better, Eltrix did not. She felt slightly betrayed that their surrogate mother would keep something like that from them, and saddened by the fact that she will never know what her true parents looked like. In a wave of emotion, the young goddess cried for many centuries, her tears filling the ravines, nooks, canyons, and cracks of the planet, until it was drowning in water. Her brother, finally tiring of her cries consoled the young girl until all her tears dried up. With the presence of water now gracing the planet, life suddenly bloomed all across Vyceria. Eltrix and her twin brother watched in awe as they created life on the planet. Soon enough humanoid and intelligent creatures began to populate their planet, and worship them. Eltrix who brings them life and prosperity, Eriax who brings them light and warmth, and Aphine who fueled their creativity and curiosity with her mysterious and lingering grace.
At the birth of sentient life forms, several minor gods and goddess were imagined from these lesser beings, but the original three are the only that resides over the planet. Eltrix acting as a mediator between both the worshipers and the other Immortals. Her clarity and kindness often bringing the planet prosperity, especially as the Planet gained popularity with neighboring ones. Soon enough the planet Vyceria found itself in a eternal golden age full of wonder and riches, but where there is good there will always be evil.
