The Universe at first was cold, it was dark, it was empty. There was not the slightest burst of light to be seen. The power of silence was what kept the chaos at ease. Total darkness, total silence. Everything that exists, had existed and would  exist was in the form of nothingness. Lonely spirits were dancing rhythmically in the void feeding themselves with  the icy emptiness. That’s how the universe worked: everything was in the form of nothing. The Universe is non linear in terms of space and time. It knows what happened, what happens and what would happen and it was everywhere but nowhere all at once. Silence led to more silence, frozen nothing led to more frozen voids, darkness led to more darkness, emptiness expanded into more emptiness. Until something happened. Suddenly, an explosion of enormous proportions occured in which all matter was formed. It came from the spirits, one spirit in particular. Her name was Ares. She was made out of all the spirits that came before her. These spirits were stuck in her brain burning with aching desire underneath that primordial silence. At one point the spirits started screaming hell to be freed from the shackles of her brain. They started pounding Ares’ head until, at one point, a single spirit named Cidis escaped. He traveled along a path of eerie silence and darkness. It was not the type of emptiness he was used to, it was not at all freezing cold, it was boiling hot. And at one point he stopped. Then he found a single stone where he was forced to stop. He started crying from a mix of happiness and horror. It was quite daunting for him to find that he was not all that it was to the universe. As his tears rolled off into the void they flew back into a strange halo above his head that started glowing as it moved closer to the stone. The emerald green stone lit up as it met the halo. And then, the explosion. Cidis managed to escape into the soul of Ares. As he was confessing his suffering to the stone, the Universe was created. Suddenly, the spirits stuck in Ares’ brain started spilling out creating everything that there is. The first stars were created from the spirits’ desire to be freed. They all went into that tunnel that Cidis had crossed through first and now nothing became something. Ares was fed up with all the pressure that her brain had on it to keep the peace and emptiness so she opened up her heart for the spirits to come and flood her soul. Then there was the light. The stars, as they cooled off, became little rocks that would later be called planets. The closest to her was the Earth. Her tears became waters, her skin became dirt and her eyes became the first human, with its own consciousness. The sky became a mirror of her own perception as spirits kept crying in her soul, pouring out onto this little rock called Earth.

  1. I must admit, it is rather lovely how you portrayed everything. The nothing, the way you describe in detail and how you manage to use your words to imagine what was before everything. It’s awesome :]
