*Hello my dear readers...
I would like to issue a formal apology for taking so long to get to the ending of this story. I would also like to apologize for taking so long to answer some questions about the story as a whole and how every character fits in. As the author, it's my task to ensure that quality is made when it comes to my stories and I have seen where I have lacked in plot points. So, as the creator of the story, I want to apologize for the lack of content.
To make it up to you all, I have a special written here to patch up those plot holes that will give you the backstory of the planet and how it was formed. You may see some familiar faces within the context of the tale. So without further ado, since my dear A.I companions have been put to rest for awhile, let me regale you with the origins of the planet.

In the beginning, there was a void.
A formless void of mass and space where nothing was living. All was silent, calm, and empty....
Suddenly, with a flash of light, there came a massive being of pure energy. A large body floating in the endless skies of this galaxy, far away from the humans who lived on Earth. This being, this ethereal creature, was known as the One. The One came about from the darkness and brought about a new age for the unmade galaxy. Reaching out a hand, dozens upon dozens of tiny stars came forth and dotted the sky. A snap of its fingers brought out explosive energy that flew around its body. It delighted itself with creating small round balls of energy that would eventually come together as its own galaxy. Childish laughter blended into the skies as its large hands held nine small planets before tossing them into the skies. The planets surrounded the being, making gravitational pulls towards it as they came to make the new galaxy.
One enjoyed creating each and every planet it touched, smiling with a sense of purpose. However, with just aimless rocks floating around its body, there came the loneliness that made the being sad. Wanting something of substance to speak with, One created two beings from its large body. The firstborn coming directly from the heart of the being and the second from the mind of the being. The two forms convulsed with life as the One placed them on its favorite planet in its solar system.

"Ooh....what's going on? Where am I? Who am I?"
Opening my eyes for the very first time, I saw nothing but darkness. I could feel something around me, my senses becoming more active. Shivering, I clutched my body to preserve some of the warmth I felt before I had crashed down on this planet. Where had that warmth gone? Why did this place feels so dark and sad?
Standing up, I gasped to see my body was glowing! It was a bright golden color, at least I think that's what the color was. Twirling, I noticed I had something weird hanging from my head and going down my back and shoulders. It was gold as well, with red vibrant tips on the bottom. Laughing, I started running down the darken path, light sprouting with each footstep I made. I ran more, filling the air with my golden glow until all I saw was the dazzling light. Now my eyes were fully awaken, looking down in the nearby stream I saw them having a gold tinge. Who was this creature that stared back at me with such beauty and grace?
"That's you of course, please tell me that you are smarter than that." A voice came from behind me, making me jump with fright. Standing there, crossing its arms, was another creature like me! She was shorter, only coming up to my chest, and her body was pale. A silver glow surrounded her as she glided forward with strange black tendrils on her head. She too had no body coverings and her eyes glowed red with silver on the edges. Unlike the smile on my face, her lips were turned downwards as she stared at me.
"Hello, who are you? Why we look so alike that we must know each other." I said politely, not wanting this new creature to go away.
She scoffed at me, giving me a glare. "Obviously we look like each other because we came from the same being. I came from the mind while you came from the heart. Now that I think about it, that makes more sense." Shaking her head, she placed her hand on her cheek. "We were not given names, but the being who created us said for us to cultivate the planet with creations of our own. So we better get started and-"
I couldn't help but squeal at how cute she was! Hugging her small body, I felt her whine in protest as I squeezed harder. Whoever was the creator up there made sure to give me such a cute...um...
I think I'll call her a sister! My cute little sister!

"Lil, can you come over and see something real quick?"
It had been ages since I first met my older, dumber, lovable sister. She's a ray of sunshine on this planet, making everything all bright and colorful. Too bright and colorful for my taste though, I prefer the darkness and solitude of my own thoughts. After the One gave us instructions on how to make a planet thrive, it left us to our own devices to do whatever we pleased. Naturally, the first thing it gave us were our names. I was given the name Lilith while she received the shining name of Cosmo. Cosmo enjoyed her gift of light and love, making cute and adorable creations to roam the world. Unlike her, I had the gift of intellect and darkness, which I used to make creatures to hunt down hers. Predators that roamed the planet in search of a meal that was quite bright and colorful. My favorite were the shadow wolves, large creatures that get powerful the more darkness surrounds them. Truly my finest creation ever.
Looking over my sector of the world, the north and west, I glanced up to see Cosmo holding something in her hands. Probably another one of those cute creatures she's so found of.
"What is it this time elder sister?" I said, my eyes drooping from the all night training session with the shadow wolves.
"I know that most of our creations love and respect us and none of them can talk. So I made two new creatures to make sure we have someone to talk with like how we communicate with the Great One!" Cosmo said, holding out her hand. "I call them man and woman! Aren't they neat?"
Lazily looking down at her hands, I was surprised to see two beings resembling us walking in them. One was more rugged with hair on the face and head while the other took after us in the looks and head department. Both of them wore no clothes, I guess my sister forgot to cover them while she was creating them. They gazed at us in awe, holding each others hands in slight fear.
"I guess they look good, but what do they sound like? Have you given them the gift of speech?" I asked, poking the male one on the head. "How about intelligence? Do they know who and what they are?"
Cosmo gave me a sheepish look before thrusting the two in my hands. "That's why I need your help! I can't do this alone and I don't want them to perish at the hands of your nightmarish creatures! Please give them the gift of intelligence and other things so they may thrive and flourish."
"No way, absolutely not. We don't need any creatures acting like us walking this planet. It's bad enough coming up with a chain of command in which to put them in." I placed the two on the table besides us, amused at how the female helped the male stand up. "They are cute though, I'll give them that. Seems they might be useful for education purposes."
Cosmo clasped her hands with mine, teary eyed. "Please help them, I want to see what they can do with our guidance. We might be worshiped by their descendants or something!"
Hmm....help these smaller beings that look like us and get praised for doing so? My sister had a way with words, didn't she?
"Very well, I shall help with the creation of these so called humans. Don't say I didn't warn you about what might happen once they gain intelligence." I said, getting a cheer from Cosmo herself. Eyeing the two being, I picked them up off the table and headed towards the lab.
"But first, I think clothing is in order for our new children."

I did it! I finally managed to accomplish something for the new world the humans had created!
Stepping backwards with pride, I gazed upon the new temple that the priest himself commissioned. It was vast and white with the symbol of the sun on the top. That was my symbol, this was my new temple for all of the humans to worship me in! I promise myself I wouldn't cry at such a great place.
Oh who am I kidding?
"THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU BUILT THIS IN ONLY A FEW DAYS!" I cried, letting my golden tears flow down my face. When they touched the ground, golden sunflowers popped up to surround the temple, giving it the signature glow. My priest, a gentleman by the name of Ray, beamed proudly at my happy face.
"I can't believe this either, my goddess. With you help, and the service of others, we managed to build you and your sister's temple in no time. I'm so honored that I got to help with building your meeting place." I could see the tinge of gold in his eyes. This was one of my blessed humans that had the power to bend light and bring life to anything. Lilith had her own set of blessed humans, but they lived underground in the caverns nearby. They were celebrating with her, the temple she had in their underground city. The humans had multiplied since we had created them decades ago and they thrived with the gifts we gave them. Some humans could create fire from their hands while some could grow plants. Others could fly with the wind, freeze with ice, and tame wild beast.
"Oh Ray, since I had first met you, I knew we would get along just great! Your passion for improving the village and dedication for my happiness is what I love about you. I'm surprised you haven't picked a bride yet to settle down with." I commented, poking his cheek with my finger. He blushed, turning away bashfully.
"It's not that I haven't been talked to with many suitors. I just haven't found the girl who seems to be as special as you are Lady Cosmo." Ray admitted to me, bowing. "If I could find a woman that has all your qualities, I'd marry her on the spot!" 
Oh my gosh, he is so adorable! To think he would put his career over finding a bride is so admirable! I picked a good one to give my blessing to! Perhaps as my first duty of this temple is to bless his wedding! I’ll find him the perfect bride and they’re going to live happily ever after! 
As patron goddess of love and light, I will make it my duty to have the best wedding for my priest!
___________________________________
How foolish of my sister to think she could please everyone. I don’t need much praise to know that I am loved by the shadows and my people of the darkness. A cult was even formed for me, how very thoughtful of them. 
Nevertheless, today is the day that my sister is blessing her first wedding. How cute of her to take part in mortal affairs. Half the time I think she enjoys the mortals so much that she’d rather be like them. The cruel irony of the whole situation is that not only is she blessing a wedding where only one half is in love, but she is blinded to the point of not noticing the growing affection of the groom.
Oh this is going to be an event I’m proud to be invited to. Perhaps I can test out a new thing I’ve been working on, my curses....
