Ocean Born | a creation myth
Every World has a beginning.
And first, there was a great ocean, bubbling with the essence of life, the breath of creation floating over it as the winds washed through an open sky. And out of its spiraling shell I slipped, naked. And then, over the lands I walked as if in a kind of dream, for a very long time.
