Different from the various burning lights that had so recently streaked down from the sky before the stars were gifted to the heavens, this light was closer and by some margin ever so brighter and more luminous that it seemed to light up the world below. If one had the sight for it they would see not just light, but a woman carrying a spear and darting through the sky, gliding on leathery wings and propelled ever so fast as she herself glowed amid her dress of fancy form. If one had the hearing for it they too would hear the exclamation, [color=Gold]“Wait, that’s not a funny tree, that’s a person!”[/color] before that woman descended down upon the sea the reflected her shine so well, to a bank by the river flow. She landed gently nearby but the pale woman paid her no heed, so engrossed by something she saw in the water. It didn't take long for the luminous lady to approach, in fact in took a very short amount of time before she was sitting down next to her saying, [color=Gold]“So my name is Ze'kelia, light is kinda my thing, and who the f- I mean who might you be?”[/color] The woman blinked and then her eyes gazed upon Ze'kelia's reflection as if she was picking apart the goddess' every detail. They sat in silence for a few moments and then the woman turned to the goddess with a frown. [Color=thistle]"How uncouth."[/color] she said in a rich, velvety voice. An air of authority laced within it. The woman stood up, arms folded behind her back as she walked around the Light Goddess, head held high. [Color=thistle]"Is that anyway to greet a fellow Divine? Rushing in without a modicum of patience? Asking who I am with such disregard for pleasantries? Sitting with such poor posture?"[/color] she came to a stop before Ze'kelia and looked down with a frown that turned into a dazzling smile. [Color=thistle]"Well, we are new after all so it can be forgiven."[/color] At once her deamnor changed and she seemed to relax as she extended a hand to the Goddess. [Color=thistle]"I am Wyn, Goddess of Beauty. A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Lady Ze'kelia, Goddess of light."[/color] her voice lost its air of authority and became softer, friendlier even. Ze'kelia feigned a look of extreme suspicion after the sudden change of tone. She rammed the butt of the spear into the ground, before smiling warmly and taking Wyn's hand as she began to stand. She paused to kiss Wyn's hand as her head came up and then laid her other hand on top holding it for a moment. Wyn smiled further at the display. [color=Gold]“And a pleasure it is to meet you Lady Wyn, Goddess of Beauty!”[/color] Ze'kelia then let go doing a small flourish with both her hands. [color=Gold]“You are more pleasant by far than the first thing on this half-blighted land, an ugly creature on three legs that threw a rock at me, a big one!”[/color] She paused to pick up her spear once more, resting the butt of it on the ground. [color=Gold]“I'm traveling to see who exactly hit me with this river you see, oh and to head up to the big mountain over there to give a signal to my two giants to start throwing my light disk. I've been thinking of names for it, I figure actually making this dark place a bit more enlightened and warm might do it some good. What do you think of...”[/color] Ze'kelia threw her arms into the air and with a flourish of her spear an array of lights appeared behind her as she spoke, [color=Gold]“THE SU'UNE!”[/color] She kept gently wiggling her spear above her head as she awaited a response. Wyn clasped her hands together and tilted her head to the side, her smile never fading. [Color=thistle]"My, you are quite the charmer and just a ball of energy, aren't you? A wonderful combination darling, one I have no doubt you'll realize how easy it is to fall for."[/color] she said nonchalantly before bringing a hand to her chin. [Color=thistle]"Now, let's see, the Su'une did you say? You know it's quite funny that we'd meet actually, as I was going to work on that very same solution. The water behind me needs a light source to fully realize its potential and here you are. Oh and no, in case you were wondering, I did not hit you with that river. I came from it actually and it no doubt comes from the same place you're heading. But oh, the Su'une… I suppose it could work."[/color] she said with a nod. Ze’kelia twirled her spear around her head before bringing back down to her side as she spoke, [color=Gold]“The water needs some light huh? It might be a while till the Su’une gets up above, I could always make a little something for your dear little place here Lady Wyn...”[/color] She trailed off leaving the option open as she renewed her smile looking directly at Wyn the whole time. Wyn raised an eyebrow. [Color=thistle]"And kind too."[/color] the goddess said, curling a strand of her hair with a finger. [Color=thistle]"I did have a bit of an idea. Come, let's take a stroll you and I."[/color] Wyn smiled before turning around. She then began to walk on top of the water, in the direction of endless sea. [color=Gold]“A stroll yes sounds wonderful!”[/color] she eagerly followed although with a noticeable lesser amount of grace walking on the water for the first ten steps or so catching up, [color=Gold]”You know, I went for a bit of a stroll once before, actually I don’t actually know if it could be called a stroll. Probably a bad word for blasting your way out of a dark monster filled cave system. Awful design let me tell you, wasn’t a single sign or anyone helpful at all!”[/color] Wyn put her arms behind her back and interlocked her fingers as they walked. [Color=thistle]"Yes you mentioned seeing something… Foul. It pains me to hear that you have had such a difficult awakening, Lady Ze'kelia. Such monsters have no right to even look upon your brilliance, if I be so bold to say. It is an affront on our divinity to allow such creatures to exist. Fortunately, I have not come across anything monstrous yet but if I do… Well. "[/color] she smirked at Ze'kelia. [Color=thistle]"I will remind them of their placel."[/color] Ze’kelia absentmindedly tapped the spear but against the water surface as they walked, sending ripples of light off below. [color=Gold]”Now aren’t you the charming one Lady Wyn, be bold as you would, I’d hardly hold it against you. I have been thinking this world is lackluster to live in, it sucks a lot. It’s dark, cold, the ground is dusty and a rather odd color in most places. It could use a great deal more beauty so I am glad to have you around with such an eye and care for it.”[/color] [Color=thistle]"Oh that's just what I'm here for, dear. The calling to turn the world back to beauty, back to a livable state. For what, you might ask? Who knows? Perhaps it's just something to do? Perhaps it's why we came into being? All I know is that this world is ugly and I, or in this case, we, must fix it."[/color] Wyn went silent, as if she was contemplating something but it wasn't long that she piped up again. [Color=thistle]"We have come along way already, haven't we? This spot will do."[/color] she unfolded her hands and placed one over the water in front of her. There came a sudden groan and the water bubbled. A large piece of land rocketed up from the depths at their feet, sending them high into the air as they stood upon it. Ze’kelia kept silent as she thought on a few of the questions and even as they rose up with the land. Finally she did come to speak turning to Wyn, [color=Gold]”What are we to do Lady Wyn? You seem to have a solid idea in your own mind of things.”[/color] When the land came to a stop it was a sizable island. Pools of water had collected on the gray stone as most of it returned to the sea in thunderous noise. Wyn turned to Ze'kelia and eyed her again. [Color=thistle]"Not to worry dear, you'll see and all will be made clear."[/color] she brought up her hands and made a box with her index fingers and thumbs, placing it in front of her face as she looked at Ze'kelia with an eye closed. [Color=thistle]"That'll do perfectly darling."[/color] she said to herself then turned back towards the island. She raised her hand and the ground began to rumble again. Stone gave away to white as something emerged from the center of the island. It rose, first revealing a hand, then the top of a head, then shoulders and wings sprouted with an unrefined look. An outline. It rose further, towering and towering above. When it at last stopped moving a giant statue stood before them. It was far larger then any ruined monolith or hill but not as large as a mountain. Its outline resembled a woman with a hand outstretched, spear in the other, striking a pose. Wyn hummed to herself then flicked her fingers and the stone began to break and crack, but the goddess did not look concerned at all. Great chunks of rock began to fall with mighty cracks upon the island, sending dust into the air. This rent on for several moments but when the noise died down, Wyn summoned a wind that blowed the dust away, revealing a magnificent statue of Ze'kelia. It was an immaculate display, with details weaved into the stone like the fabric she wore, all the way to individual feathers. Her build was appropriate to her current form, but her face was enhanced, perhaps far too beautiful or with a hint of an artistic flare. [Color=thistle]"If you could place a light within your palm, it would be appreciated, Lady Ze'kelia."[/color] Wyn said, one hand on her hip and the other touching her chin. She stared at the statue but her face conveyed little to what she was thinking. Ze'kelia had awaited patiently as first the stone was shaped and then detail added, growing more aware of what exactly was being formed here. Somewhat stunned by the whole thing she calmly did as asked, an orb of light flickering through the spectrum came into her hand as she stared up at the construction. A single look, when she had taken a very long while to shape a physical form to her idea not too long ago. [Color=thistle]"Ah, there it is, light. It's warmth shall illuminate this sea for time eternal. Bringing about beauty untold. Thank you, Lady Ze'kelia."[/color] Wyn said to her, then snapped her fingers and turned around to look out over the sea. From behind her the rocks groaned again and formed a hexagonal platform beneath the statue. Smaller statues, that maintained the same visual appeal, formed on the corners, each depicting Ze'kelia holding an urn. From those urns a a stream of water gushed pooling into rocks as they flowed to run off the island. A stream ran by them and Wyn reached down, placing a finger within and then bringing it to her lips. She tasted it. [Color=thistle]"Salty. Perfect. Come Ze'kelia, look upon the view you created."[/color] she said. Ze'kelia flapped her wings, bolting herself to a easy landing by the edge to look out onto the fullness of the landscape. With the added light, what was once a rather dreary look had transformed into a wonderous view. Her light painted the water crystal clear, and where the salt began to mix with the water, the particulates reflected and sparkled. It was a spark of hope in that dreary world and would only grow better as it aged. Wyn finally spoke up again, [color=thistle]"I imagine your… What was it again, suun? Sun? When that illuminates the world it will only look better I think. Or I should say, hope."[/color] [color=Gold]"You know, Lady Wyn, I think this world has waited long enough for the rising of the Su'une. My Solar Disk, I shall think it might be good to get that going, so you might see for yourself."[/color] With that comment made she flew up into the air and held her spear with both hands, aligning it upward towards the sky and unleashing a great burst. It wasn't blinding, it slowly drifted up luminous beyond anything else higher and higher into the sky. A small trail of plasma and heated atmosphere was left in its wake, bright anywhere else except in the wake of this light. When it seemed so far above the surface, so far above even the highest mountains it exploded out in a great wave of light. Mostly low energy, high in wavelength, the least harmful to most that which still lived. Some in the higher bands of visible light stayed as did others not absorbed quickly into the atmosphere, heating it ever slightly. And the light faded from the sky once more, dimming... ...until from the North, almost as far as one could go and starting low in the sky. A bright light arc'd, from east to west, it was blinding to look at and warm, warmer than anything had been for a long time in most places along the surface. It radiated out over, so low that some were blocked by mountains or hills. Then it landed somewhere unknown, and then a light flew from west to east, not as bright, but warm still if less so. One could look and see this clearly, the best eyesight could tell a beautiful design of colors and light shifting as it flew, but from a disk so radiant and small that to most it appeared white in their merging, soft and gentle light. It flew in an arc slightly higher in the sky, going slightly further east than the first light. And then it began again when it landed, eachtime moving a bit further, a bit higher. One could see that eventually it would be high in the sky and enlighten all that it could reach. [color=Gold]"I think my Guardians got the message Lady Wyn!"[/color] Ze'kelia called back below as she circled slowly down again. Wyn gave a clap as she smiled up at Ze'kelia. [Color=thistle]"Marvelous darling. Oh what beauty your light will illuminate one day."[/color] Her lips curled into a frown however. [Color=thistle]"But right now it paints how much work is still needed to achieve that dream. I think it best we depart for now. For you have to hunt down whoever hit you with that river, and I must busy myself with tidying up this place we now call home."[/color] she said, her frown relaxing. Ze'kelia landed once more speaking softly, [color=Gold]"One last thing Lady Wyn before I continue on my way and you continue with your work."[/color] She held out a small crystal orb, to the other Goddess and displayed one in her other hand after letting go of the spear where it stood in the air as she left it. She squeezed the one held out and it glowed red as the other glowed blue, she stopped and then repeated for the other. Squeezing both at once made them glow purple. [color=Gold]"So that no matter how distant on this world we may both remember each other and let the other know."[/color] Wyn looked upon the orb with great interest, then back to Ze'kelia. [Color=thistle]"How kind of you, Lady Ze'kelia. Hmm, let's see."[/color] she said, hovering the orb closer. Upon further inspection she touched it and the orb sparkled, then a crystal band grew from under it and she placed it on a finger. She held it up towards the light and it shimmered. [Color=thistle]"You are sweet, thank you."[/color] Wyn said softly. Ze'kelia smiled and waved as her wings began to beat and she took off, turning to head upriver towards the mountain once more. Wyn watched her go, a devious smile playing at her lips. [hider=Summary]Ze’kelia flies up river until she comes across a lady along the banks of an inland sea. She very unceremoniously introduces herself to Wyn which causes some authoritative talk before she adopts a very smiling and happy venere. They talk for a bit, sharing who they are and some facets. Wyn leads Ze’kelia away over the water before eventually making an island rise and adding a neat statue of Ze’kelia, although face touched up a bit with the artist's mind there. Ze’kelia adds a light to the statue’s outstretched hand as other statues pour salt water into the sea. They have some talk of Ze’kelias plans over such and the need for light. In which Ze’kelia mentions her solar disc, the Su’une as she calls it. With the minor light given and some more talk Ze’kelia decides to give the signal now, sending a light way up into the sky which explodes in the higher light frequencies down to barely in visible light. This starts the two Guardians way in the north throwing the solar disk between them. East to west bright and warm as a sun, west to east as a beautifully crafted art upon the disk in light, appearing white to most unenhanced eyes serves as bright and warm a good full moon. Starting very low in the sky the disc slowly begins to go both further and further across the horizon but also higher and higher in the sky. As a source of light and warmth spreading to all of the Fragment in time. Ze’kelia gives Wyn a paired light orb and then departs on pleasant terms to go to the central mountains and find who hit her with a river, as Wyn has her own plans.[/hider] [hider=MA]-Light burst as described lighting and hitting all over Galbar from its explosion after rising in the sky. Light in higher wavelengths of light to barely into the visible spectrum. Gives signal for the Solar Disc, the Su’une, to begin to be thrown between the two Guardians Ur-Nikatel and Ur-Alz(f)elia[/hider]
