Asta and Asti: Gods of Creation

Always depicted as Children, Asta and her brother Asti are considered to be the first gods that existed. It is said that first they were simply consciousness in an empty universe, but then after existing for some time and contemplating and trying many things, they finally discovered Divine Power.

Curious to expand their ability to learn from this, they began using Divine Power to create various senses, such as the basic five senses, as well as the sixth sense instinct and the seventh sense known as Aurallius, or the ability to sense aura and mana.

However, there was nothing around but particles. And so, the two used their divine power to create a universe that goes on forever, always growing, always adapting, an infinite space with infinite possibilities. They created never ending portals to supply energy and light, known as Stars. Although the portals themselves might close unless their energy was replenished, new stars would always replace them if they did. But that cycle made them start to worry, they came into existence on their own will, but they had no idea what time was before they created the concept so things could change and be interesting. They could affect the portals themselves, renew their energy, but they did not know how to handle the creation of lifeā€¦they were not even sure what life was.

There are two versions of what happened next, the truth and the fluffed up version.

The fluffed up version stated how they pondered thoughts, senses, communication, and eventually what life was itself and so on, seeking wisdom from beyond the stars and realms. And then, they linked the existence of another world to their own and used it to begin the construction of their grand heavenly system, their ideas taking the physical form of other gods.

Truthfully, the two got stumped and eventually frustrated and upset, and used their divine power to rip open a hole in reality, creating a galactic core in the process, and begged the god of another universe for answers. Seeing Asta and Asti like this, he felt a bit sad that their universe had remained empty for so long, and gave them a guide titled ā€œHow to create a Universe and Earth Like World for dummy godsā€ he wrote ages ago for another god who nearly broke both of their universes for a stupid reason.

Of course, he also lectured them about ripping holes in reality, since even when they are repaired there are lasting effects.

And so, using the guide, they began constructing the universe we know today, but with various differences. Partially for originality, partly for creativity. They also created the next group of gods.

The first was Kaporeon, the god of Order, Purity, and Faith. He is often depicted as an adult human male, with a white beard and moustache. Not a handlebar either.

The next was Vora, the god of Chaos, Diversity, and Willpower. He is often depicted as a child, like Asta and Asti.

After that was Gimi, the God of Nature, Progression, and Change. Gimi is often debated as being male or female, as no one really knows for certain, they just call him a he. He is also often depicted as appearing as a grand tree.

While Kaporeon and Vora quarreled frequently after their creation, much to the annoyance of Asta and Asti, Gimi went on ahead. While Asta and Asti created the framework for everything already, they will still focusing on the heavens and perfecting the system. They had to, after all. So Gimi began creating a natural world full of nature and beauty, but found complications down the road. Mainly, without the Heavenly System working, the lower planes would not work properly on their own.

So he went to ask Asta and Asti for guidance, but saw Kaporeon and Vora fighting again on a level unlike before. It had reached such heights that Asta and Asti tried to personally intervene, but nearly got mortally wounded as a result. However Gimi was able to stop all four of them before it was too late.

Gimi revealed the presence of a Sixth God that had snuck in from another world, an Evil God. Because Gimi had left immediately, the Evil God had not been aware of his existence when he arrived. He had actually been trying to get them all to kill each other so he could finish off whoever was left, but Gimi had stopped that. He also warned the others about the problems in the world.

To fight the Evil God, they used the gap in the Heavenly System and created an army of Godlike Creatures. Each one was individually weak, but together they were strong. They were the spirits, beings who would help keep the world running while remaining mostly impartial. They also created Species and Civilization, although it was nothing more then a starting point really, as well as an expansive, ever changing ever adapting world to exist on. This was to fight the Evil God and the minions he was spawning to fight them, the Devils and Monsters.

Asta and Asti also created numerous subordinate gods. They were higher then Spirits, but lower then the five of them. They would help operate the system and keep it running.

After that, the Evil God was quickly defeated and sealed away. However, before he did he had begun seeing doubt and disagreement between them all again.

Gimi had created animals, natural beings of the world. However, the Dark God had made it so monsters would keep appearing as well, and the Devils also persisted.

Kaporeon thought it was best to fight them with a single, united force, and used a lot of the Heavenly Systemā€™s resources to create and support humans.

Vora disagreed, thinking that there should be more diversity, and created many other species that would be the Ancestors of the Elves, Dwarves, and Animans.

However, this once again awakened the fight between Kaporeon and Vora. Kaporeon meddled in Voraā€™s creations without asking, and began turning them human. Vora stopped him, and then to spite him, created an advanced and powerful race that could easily crush humans, something that would also have the power to wipe out the strongest Devils, the Dragons. However, the Dragons were made chaotically and had all sorts of different types, making it hard to judge them universally. This greatly angered Kaporeon and caused another huge fight. Meanwhile, the Evil God used the last amount of his power he saved up and dragged a few Dragons into a separate dimension, turning them into what became known as Chaos Dragons. Additionally, new Chaos Dragons would be periodically born there and enter various dimensions when it would be time to eat and grow. Eating other Dragons in particular would be the most effective.

However, when the Evil God messed with Voraā€™s creation, Vora messed with his creations as well. He created the Demon Race from Demon Beasts and Demon Spirits, and also messed with the genetics of the Devil Race, making them have mutations and would prevent them from being all powerful.

The Evil God, upset by this, then sent a number of them to attack the gods, and slay them while they were weakened. The battle lasted for a long time, but eventually endedā€¦but not without loss. Asta, Asti, and Vora disappeared while Kaporeon and Gimi were somewhat weakened. Kaporeon had to take up all the responsibilities for creation and order, while also overseeing the world. But thanks to Vora, his ability to manipulate the world and create a perfect, pure, orderly system was restricted. And so, he created a religion centered around himself so he could gain power even if it took a long period of time and fix not only what Vora did, but things that Asta and Asti did as well he thought were mistakes. He locked the Heavenly Doors as well, and allowed no one other then his subordinate gods and the prayers of his followers to reach him so he could conserve power and focus. Meanwhile, Gimi went on to maintain the system and the world, following his parents teachings on what they believed life to be about. That was encountering and overcoming hardships, enjoying each moment, and being able to see and enjoy the fruits of their labors.

He disagreed with what Kaporeon was doing though, but decided to focus on getting the others back rather then fight him. Unfortunately this allowed other subordinate gods to eventually rebel unchecked, and created their own churches and religions. This caused conflict and strain on the system and Kaporeon, and resulted in various factions, fighting, and Wars to break out. And although he hated Vora, as Vora was the one with the ability to keep it in check, he realized the need for multiple gods. So while he fought these gods, he was unable to go around killing them as it would create more strain. Additionally things began to evolve haphazardly which caused even more issues, and making Kaporeon blame and hate Vora even more as well as his creations.

Especially Dragons. They were developing in ways far outside how they should, and even races such as Nymphs started appearing out of the blue.

It was like Vora was actually running around without supervision. But Kaporeon could never spot Vora, so he just assumed it was Voraā€™s poor system management where it couldnā€™t run without him.

However, the truth was beyond anyoneā€™s dream. Vora was actually just isolated and trapped, Heaven having been split in two without Kaporeon realizing, and was doing everything he could to fix the situation. And as for Asta and Asti, they were sent flying through time space into the futureā€¦at a certain point in time.

As for Gimiā€¦well, he interfered at times, but he also let things go about naturally, believing life should have free will.

But that is the told story of the gods.
