[center]Tuuni Time[/center] [center]Get ready for wet![/center] The world of Galbar had one central area of life, where the khodex laid and a great tree grew over it amid an ocean of primordial water. Already, civilization had graced this pocket of life, even culinary delight had reared its curious head. However, as Tuuni observed the ways and wants of the world below, he couldn't help but feel the tug of inequality coming from the back of Galbar, wehre an arid wasteland stretched forever. With resolve, Tuuni journeyed through the desert, to the exact opposite side of the world. There he planted his feet in the ground for the first time and gave a wide grin. "Well, how do you like that?" He said to no one in particular. A dry wind answered him, the only companion along the beige sea of dust. Even as a god he could feel the peeling heat on the top of his hairy head and looking down to where his long beard brushed the ground, he couldn't help but find distaste as he noticed the droplets of moisture that hid inside evaporate before his eyes. Slowly, very slowly, a frown curled downward on his old face and for the first time in his brief life, he wasn't exactly too happy about this. He bit gnawed on his knuckle, though no one was to blame, really. "Very well," he resolved and looked up to the sky. He squinted and pointed a finger, thumb cocked and ready. "Bang! Pap! Pow! Pow! Bizat! Boom! Ralk!" He fired off little shots of divine power at the sky and as they collided with the atmosphere, something unexpected happened. The bolts cut through the fabric of reality, leaving large buzzing wounds in the sky and before the eye could see beyond the rend, large whiskered dragon heads erupted forward. The two closest wounds and thus closest dragons came out twirling together as if in love. Their eyes river pebbles, their tongues of lilies, and their water sparkling. As torrents of water they collided and rebounded until they slammed into the dry ground below, leaving dancing water falls in their wake that collided at random points, generating smaller temporary falls. From where they landed, rivulets and streams burst across the landscape, eager to find purchase. "You shall be the falls named..." Tuuni tugged his beard. "Hermes and Xiaoli, the river lovers." Another pair of dragons emerged from twin wounds. These ones were stoic but close as if old friends. They were strong currents and when they landed, great and strong brooks and streams ploughed through the land, colliding with the waters of the lovers. "You shall be," Tuuni started, "the falls of Shangshi and K'nell, the brothers." Two more dragons emerged, one small and wily, twisting through the air. With every twist it made, a larger dragon covered it from the sun, as if protecting it in a cloak of care. This strange dance made it so when they hit the ground, the waterfalls they left in their place fell at an angle that disrespected gravity, as if defiant incarnate. Tuuni chuckled. "What better a name than Apostate and his ward, Lorelei." Their waters like the others combined and thus, a great river started to form, cutting west and cutting east, but before it finished a final dragon came blazing from the final wound in the sky. It was larger than all the others combined, and caught the sun in such a way it seemed a jewel. When it hit the ground, it did not land on the arid dust, but chose the pooling water and the baby river and such when it landed, a great and mighty force sent the river both and west, splitting the world into a north and a south. Before Tuuni could even name this one, he was forced to run after the errant ends, a big smile on his face as he used his godly power to shape its path and to avoid crushing any emerging life with the twisting torrent. Even as he approached the mountains that lipped the oasis of life he quickly summoned a statue of a dragon an either side to split the rivers in twain so that they may curl around the oasis without harm and empty into it in such a way that it did not blast through the mountains proper. "That one was a lot of work," Tuuni said to himself as he watched the blue take over the arid. "I'll name it Benea, because that sounds like the name of a piece of work." Silence, well silence except for the rushing water. Tuuni sat on the water between all his falls, their endless torrent of blue ever falling from the wounds of the sky. He didn't notice it before, but Benea had hit the ground so hard that there were now bits of land floating between the falls, connected by similarly floating rivers, creating a web of water and land amid the very sky. Tuuni nodded to himself and looked down at the riparian floor, now drenched. There was water, but not much else. Yet. He clicked his foot against the ground and up sprouted small dancing daffodils. Their pedals flapped as if to talk and all at once, they started to tell the story of this creation, all but one. This small flower seemed to regard Tuuni before asking, "Hey, won't all this water eventually fill up the basin?" Tuuni looked down at the flower and thought to himself. "No." "Why, or rather, why not?" Tuuni waved a sage hand. "Go spread your seeds along the banks of the world river, so that your kind may sprout along it and bring word the denizens of Galbar of a new paradise that shall be known as Shangshi La!" "Wait, that didn't answer my question at all..." Tuuni put his hands on his hips and sucked in a relieved breath, taking in the wild sights. "Gorgeous." The Daffotale sighed. "Seems a bit hammed, but whatever." [hider=summary] World river is now a thing. It gets its water from a central location on the opposite side of the planet to the basin of life. It is supplied by seven waterfalls that originate in ethereal wounds in the atmosphere. Sky islands and connecting sky rivers exist between these falls. Dancing flowers that speak and tell the story of the creation as well as whatever else they see now grow along the banks of the world river, telling people to go to the area with the falls for a good time. Tuuni named this spot Shangshi La. A dragon statue in the east and in the west of the Khodex basin split the river to prevent it from going directly into the basin but rather curl around before emptying in gentle water falls.
