My fellow Artisans, I gather you here, for this most ceremonious event. Uma canção cantemos. A song, la chanson. A chansevent.

We shall gather in this chansevent, in these fields of grey, white and blue, and through this song we shall weave a universe most UNDEFINED. For what qualities shall our creation hold? That, cannot be known right now.

For we are creatures of free will, or so we perceive. Therefore this birth of our will shall be called ... ἑκοντογένεσις
hekón: of one's own free will, voluntary. Alas, I've never seen such palavra magnífica usada this way. Hekontogenesis! From our will, this world everlasting shall becreated. Like the Canine Venus, we shall all be sublimated, nonaulidically, to a Pantheon of posters.

A Postheon? Ah ha ha ha we guffawed, chortlearei a questa nozione. Bolsters our spirits joke so ludic. For 'tis not a Postheon, but a Panepigraphonteon.



We have yet to be given Deitístic forms, ye of the πανεπιγραφοντεών. The ἐπιγράφων, those accused of writing in the city walls, graffiti, such a noble art. And we graffit in the forums, or do we not? Do you recognize not γράφω, grafo? Oh discharge any notions found on 10¹⁰⁰ of latin origins. Scribo's not Grapho, that's for so desu ne. Thus, as a newly formed Pantheon, we shall graph the words that forthwardbring a universe.


Here in the noble fields of grey, white, gray and blue, our glorious universe shall be made in seven days. We start thus in this brillig, the one predarkness, with a simple plan.

-------------------------------------------------------------
The Plan:

Zeroth Day:
1) The Pantheon
2) The Sum

First Day: The Location
Chapter 1 - A Gathering of Gods
Chapter 2 - The First Dice

Second Day: The Shape
Chapter 3 - The Pond of Choices
Chapter 4 - The Dado of Dados, the Second Dice

Third Day: The Nature
Chapter 5 - As We Behold the Outer Creation
Chapter 6 - As We Define the Nature of the Inner Creation
Chapter 7 - The Dice to Define the Shape of Dice

Fourth Day: The Fields
Chapter 8 - Cosmolourgenesis
Chapter 9 - A Terrible Clownrse
Chapter 10 - The Dice to split all Fields from a Universal Formula


Fifth Day: The Laws

Sixth Day: The Wonders
Seventh Day: The Gifts

Eighth Day: The Observation

By the zeroth the Gods must gather,
friends and foes of a single mind.
All are welcome, but only the founders
in these halls would a form they find.

我々beckon ye to join, and materialize,
the form-manifest shall be wrought to life.

Describe to me your avatar, and do not stray,
lest thy worshipers will have naught to pray.

Behold, from the Majesty of the Colorize, the form is given.

The 1 of the Creation, then the 2 from the Liveliness, then then the 2 of Earthly Motions, then the 3 of Umbral Notions, then the 2 from the Outside.

First come the nothingness.
0
Then the One.
1
Then the Line.
2
Then the Square
2^2
Then the Triangle.
3
Then the Great Square
2+2+3+2 = 3^2
The Sum Total.
It all returns to the creation. Thus the Universal Constant is become.

Ϝ = 1.2232 = 1

As it all returns to One.

1+2+2+3+2 = 1+0 = 1

The Four Groups, the Outsiders, the Livelies, the Motionists and the Shadownists, form themselves in perfect harmony:
2*2*3*2 = 24 = 4! = (2 Outsiders * 2 Motionists) Groups * 3 Umbras * 2 Livelies * 1 Creator.

And from that constant sprung the forms everposting. As Physics are thenceforth given form, so too shall 1.2232 become 1, and all Math will be given sense.



THE TWO FROM THE LIVELINESS:



THE TWO FROM THE EARTHLY MOTIONS:



THE THREE FROM THE UMBRAL NOTIONS:



THE TWO FROM THE OUTSIDE:


And these are the Multiplications, the Sums, the Subtractions, and the Divisions.

(1 * 2) + (2 / 2) - 3 = 0

The Sum Total.

End of the Zeroth Day.

Proceed.

The First Day

Chapter 1: A Gathering of Gods



As all gather around, you see Deren Edwardbuttonlocks staring at Tenebrae, creeping upward the wall.



Ah hah! Turns out the wall was the ground the whole time! Oh who gave us this plot twist? Hohi hohi teeha teehee, it must have been Kas-Jaa. Kas-Jaaajajajaja!



Lux Animus: Hohoho! What a fun prank. Kas-Jaa is indeed a busy bee! But how can Kas-Jaa make Tenebrae whole again, if Kas-Jaa here is not wont to be?



"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hoooohoohoo you jest, Lux! Making a fool of us pan. We omni know: 'Tis you who's hiding Kas-Jaa!"

The man laughs heartwholedly and from his robe, he shows the piece of the tomfoolery.



Lux Animus: Gyah hah hah. Right you are. But are you sure within my robe Kas-Jaa is, or is it us who are inside Kas-Jaa? Look closely, and we shall see.







Lux Animus: Gyah haha hah! Hoho.
"Oooh hohoho."
Tenebrae: Heheheheh! Fufufu.
Elaera: I see. We were inside Kas-Jaa, and so Kas-Jaa could turn the wall!



Alias: No.



Alias: We are made jokerees by the great molehillgiver. This is all smoke and mirrors.
Alias: But I see through the shadowy veils that obscurecent us all. Kas-Jaa was hiding in the palm of the Creator all along.



All exclaim with great appeasement, amusedly content by the magic trick and Alias' clearsight. Ohhhh hoohohoho. The Gods are most pleased with the fun that is to be had. "Then, methought, the air grew denser", quoth the Creator. Hoohoho, it's Elaera, who notices something quitest queer in the environment. I've seen it too! Why, such a tiny whimsy bitty teeny detail.



Elaera: Twould seem, someone is playing tricks of their own. While we joyed en la mágica of the Creator, a new horn begrew on woooohoooooooooo...huuuu...woooOOooooohhh...

Ooooh! Such melody! They are really of one Motion. Only a Cloudly Divinity would pronounce WoooOooWOowoOOoOOhhOOOOooooooo....oohhoWUUUuuuuhh so smoothly and perfectly and flawlessly and musically musical, delightful! Oh prankster in these Godly halls, what blessing 'twas that you called Elaera's attention, so that we could hear Elaera's windful pronounciation. I sigh, in relief. But it is true - a new horn is, where no horn should be.



Mister Edson Edwardcrumbs: I shall keep no secrets unmeritwanted - Helenoya Cruzinski said, her form hard to focus - The culpable party behind such travesty is... THE WANDERER.

Much "ooohs", "ahhhs", "uuuhs" to be had and heard. Why, the Wanderer promptly comes, to explain itself:



Wanderer: Wooooooof, Wooooof, Wooooof's form is incomplete. The horns protect it not from predators from above. I was evolving it.
Elaera: Wanderer! Why woof when you can howl?
Wanderer: Right you are, Skylet Wonder. As I was saying, Ahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwlll's form is incomplete.

Ohhh hohoho! What a kind surprise! Good intentions all around, but alas, such intentions cannot last forever. As the new bone in WoOooOOHHHHHHHHHoohohuuhhhhhhhh begins to rot, Rotbone comes to explain such obviouty:


Rotbone: Admirable, but... the Cold Wind brings stillness to all... and with the stillness, resistance to change. For those are Divine Bones and they are not meant to change... we must remind us-selves of the cold. The cold stills, and still is the shape of the Gods who choose to do so. As all cycles end where they begin, change unremains.



Oooh hoho, and thus, with such wisdomian words, HoooooooooooooowOOOooohoooWOOOOoooUUHhhhUUUuhhhHUUUuuWOOOooo form is returned. What a glorious, happy, merry, joystful party! Oh I exclaim, Oh how joyful it is to be surrounded by such graceful companions in this enterprise of great pith and moment.

Alas, my colleagues, we must cease our festivities to forthbring the first task at hand. Today we must define the location of our Universe. Will it be surrounded by friends like we are? Or will it be alone and in loneliness find its way?

Our Universe will find itself in:
A1) An entire new Dimension.
B1) In our dimension.
C1) An existing Dimension.

And in that place, it will be:
A2) Alone beyond everything.
B2) Parallel to other Universes.
C2) Floating in the Multiverse, bumping around other Universes.
D2) Alone but with a pathway to the Great Beyond.

A question of tricks this is, for the shapes and geometries of Universe are not a matter of realities but perspectives. A set of sets it is, that contains itself, in multiforme fractal-kin. Who is to say where a facet begins or ends? All in one and one in all, yet the swirls and forms are barriers of sort?

An uncaring wind finds itself impeded by the newly created wall. It shrieks and shears against it, a depression forming.

There is a rattling against the wall. Or is it a knocking? It persists and grows louder until it is deafening.

C1. The cold wind is no creator.
C2. Shadows loom on the horizon, speaking of unknown dangers.

The First Day

"Ohoho," chortles Lux Animus, "that we have gained coherence among these ethereal planes is plain to see, hee-hee, ha-ha. Kas-Jaa, you and your splendid trickery!"

The mirthful man-shaped god's brilliant, ebullient nature was captivating, contagious.

"Oho-hoho - though note my fellows: one doubts such spouts of chaos should thrive should we bring forth lives with the will to survive. We shall begin a genesis, my kin: we must forge anew a realm for our creations."

The god slowly nodded his head beatifically.

"First, a light is born, and from that light springs forth life, life with its own path to divinity..."

For the non detectives
Ah, here we lay witness to that which forms future Myth. Let us celebrate.
Existence is ours to shape, why taint creations with that of outer design. Let us test what Secrets we can make with just our our own.
Yet let isolation be not our fate.

It is a pity, creation. That we could stay here longer; but the wheel turns.

Still, the blackened mane washed with the riverwheels passage and trimmed for the new weave.

A brightened gold shines anew, a new face for a new world.

Come then, oh new world. Yet again I throw you my mercy, wanting more yet expecting far less.

A1/D2.

Born clean and untarnished. What will you think of your creators? What will you think of their works, when you meet them?

May this world fair better than the last.

There is no need to explain why this configuration is correct.

I like the way you think.

But People have fears that beasts do not. Questions, too.
The Wanderer alternately growls, whistles and roars a laugh at the japes of its fellows, them grows sober. "There is but a single way this may begin: Fresh."

oOOH hoho. Your votes are all being computed into a most wonderful machine of decisions! Decisions, the fruit of our will. Results will be out soon. Or maybe I will fall asleep! Life is of uncertainty.

The Second Day

Chapter 3 - The Pond of Choices

Emptyless, shapeless, contentless, the new dimension is formed.



Embracing the possibilities, Roger Akirawa prepares its great archive.



Em its vastness, each Deity sees the dimension differentely. All notions of shapes, forms, antiforms and size and rotation and all are gone.








It went on with much internal ado, and little external adieu, until we decreeded a place to settle, n we spread the universes in a great lake in the form of a small pond, so that we could seed the verselets.



In Therein we explored, but the universes were found to be empty. The Wanderer became a great school of fish to explore this newborn sea, but nothing was found. Alias left in some universes the great nebulae of his smoke clouds, but they were undone for the universes knew not what to make of them. Even the great shadow cast by Tenebrae found no home.



Up in the heavenly skies, Lux and Elaera observed.

Lux Animus: Hoho. It would seem even in the depthiest reaches, the darkness cannot consist. Shouldn't a universe bereft of light be dark?

Elaera: They have no shape to contain the nothingness, and from that nothingness to bring forth the not-light-rays for our eyes to gaze. We see not the darkness because we see the light from our own universe.



The seedlets would take any form we want. Rotbone made them into great spheres and therethere they beheld light, and grew dark, for a time. He built one of them in the shape of a great house and put other universes in it like windows. Hohohoo!



Jonathas Elbertron prepared his great archive to file the memories of these file-shaped universes, but they need not be wet paper. As the sea stretched to the Cave of hoooooooowoooooOOooWOoowOOooOOHOull...hooouuuuuwuuuuu, they took the form of many floating pond plants.

I hold one of them within my hand, and now we must decide. Paperflats, gridsferas, lettuce on water, houses, and even fire. Hooo hoho. Our seedlets are many, but we must give them a form.



Their Outer Dimension shall be:
A1) This pond of our making.
B1) A pure mathematical abstraction. There - they exist: There.
C1) The eternal everlasting darkness, absent ph ys ic s a n d
D1) A great tree, and each universe shall be a leaf.

The amount of universes populating this dimension shall be:
A2) Infinite, procedurally generated.
B2) Seven.
C2) Ten.
D2) A Googolplex.
E2) A TREE of three.
F2) A TREE of Graham's number.

The arrowtime fletchery which quivers to think the feeble mind:
A3) Rain drops scatter time.
B3) Tree branches forever subdivide.
C3) A single timeline easy to find.
D3) Twin gemini, grass greener on the other side.

The shape of the universes'll be like inside:
A4) Infinite Flatness.
B4) A concave looping spheroid.
C4) A donut, finite flatness.
D4) A convex spheroid from within which they can escape.
E4) All twisty in the mithy.
F4) Gaseous.

And when we gaze them, we will see:
A5) A crystal ball, mysterious is its art.
B5) Paper files, easy to file.
C5) A computer screen, easy to read.
D5) Nothingness is its imagery.
E5) A burning fire, wherein life dances.
F5) A pond plant for us to ponder.
G5) We see from the outside as it is inside.

The people-who-are-not-yet have yet to commit crimes, in memory of this innocence so too shall we protect them just a moment longer.

They will learn, when they are ready.

D1

They are not truly trees, and there is more than one not-tree, but when crossing from one leaf to another is a challenge, the rest of the "forest" will wait.

B2

It is not a very large tree.
...Conservation of resources is important. Each universe deserves our care, too many and all feel neglect. If seven turns out to be not enough? We will see.

C3

I doubt they will learn to traverse the river any way but one, but they will find their way easy enough if they do.
Go or do not, they already have. Or won't. Such is the course of the river.

D4

They will be safe within each leaf. But one day they within will step beyond their cradle amongst the boughs of the great tree, and come to understand there is so much more.

G5

Look deep into my face. What is, What if, What could be and what has been.
If one sought a crystal ball, they need look no further.

Yet, the people are not mysteries or paper or dots or nothing or fire or a pond plant.
(Yet. They could be, if it is to be. You see?)

My face always shifts. To show the truth it cannot, but to show myriad lies and misunderstandings it does with ease.
But, we are gods! Who should know our creations worse than us?

Come, then. Look deep, unto the truth. The things we will make, forget, and return only to find it too fantastical to believe.

We will laugh, and call it lies. But we, of now, know better. Until we forget, of course.

Then we will...

The rambling continues for some time, trailing off in volume into the background as the others speak in turn.
