A Creation Story?

at another house rn, so i got other stuff to do that my turtle says is more important so i cant write as much, but i still got a release out

Even though the NWU has no official religion and has remained an atheist but religiously tolerant state, there exists a creation story for Reality, which is all the universes, dimensions, and levels of existence that there are. Or is it perhaps more? 

Before time was a thing, and nothing was there, everything was empty, obviously. It was pitch dark, very cold, and very, very empty. But soon, there was a thing. It had appeared to manifest out of the nothingness. This thing glowed with many other things, called colors. These colors formed together into a combination, which is the color white. This white colored thing soon grew through the nothingness, and when the thing had occupied half of the pure emptiness, it created a body for itself. This body was similar to what we now consider a humanoid female, but was no doubt far superior in all attributes, and more beautiful.

The nothingness itself formed a body for itself, seeming to learn it spontaneously- or after seeing the white-colored thing form a body. However, this body was in the form of a humanoid male. Soon, after fashioning the inner workings of themselves and the ability to feel and think, the two noticed each other. They began to vocalize to one another, somehow, before feeling the need to do... something? This need came from their throat, and, when they gave in to it, they created the first language, and speech itself, known as U̶̡̧̧̨̧̗̮͈̞̣͎̹̙̘̱͕̼̻͖͉͉̥̙̣̝͖͍͇̪̭͇͙̰̘̬̦̰̙̙͉͉͔̱̰̰̖͕͓̲̱͍͇̟̻̘̪͕̮̱̩̗̝̻̝̜̺̻̘̹̮̰̖̝̱̩̖͖̜̭̠͑̍̈́̀̉̔̎̎̈̓̈̾̽̈́̂̽́̀̔̓̅̀̀̇̄̈́̎̌̆͊͑̓̓̈͘͘͘̚͜͜͠͝͝ͅИ̷̧̧̧̨̨̡̨̛̛͚͕͈̫̺̬̪̠͈̝͎͚̩̙̳͈̠͇̜͖̤̘͍̱̲̳̝͓̜͉̰͙͕̞͍̳̗͓̮̩̤͙̰̪͈̭̜̞̮̩̮̹̂͌̔̾͋́̂́̓̾̏̒́̀̉͋͂̑̐́̔̓̋̐́̅̉̽̒̋͋̕̚͘̚͝͝ͅͅỈ̶̡̧̢̨̧̧̡̛̛͉̯̥͕͎̺̱͇̦̣̠̳͕̮̪̠̩̯̪͇̘̩̟͚̻̟̙̹̝̰̝̺̗͕̻̻̺̞͚̼̟̯̠͔̖̤̙̭̥̪̪̗̤̋̏̏̅̉͋̈́̒̎̓̉͛́̓͂̉̑̃̌͗͊̎̆̈́̒̓͒̌̀̀̽͂̀̓̑́͛̊̑̈́̓͊̈́̋͌̄͑̀̒̇̀̋̃͘̕̚͜͝͠͝͝ͅƧ̶̡̡̧̢̧̛̩̦̞̺̹͉̬̩̠̻̼̮̳̗͍̻̰̺͕̺̣̬͕͓͈͎̝͚͓̩̘̞̘̣̪̦̺͉̼͉͈͉͓̗̬̟͈̗̦̫͇̝̞̭̯̠̠͕̹̣̘̦͙̖̼̗̞̰̜̫̻̩̩̣̫̮̗͙̖̳͕̩͇̭͚̻̪̮͂̈́̓̀̒̊́̏́͗͋́͂̽̉̋͌̀̓̄͛̆͛̌́͆̂̆͘͜͜͜͝ͅͅͅԳ̵̨̢̨̞͈͉̱̙̰̤̤͓̜͖̞͖̦̝̥̜̭͙͚̠͕̼̘͓͎͙̜̪͖̗̦͚͑̔̈̎̎͛̏̀̋͛̅̿͑̆̾̄͒̿̔̍̊̊̚͝͝͠Ǝ̴̨̡̧̨̨̢̨̡̢̨̢̛͍͔̥̥͍̺̹̱̩̭̻̪̮̬̪͎̠͙̭̰̼͚͍͕̥̘̦̥͙͓̩͓̘̘͉͍̣̗͍͙̺̥̤̝̤̖̩̺̤̘̪̝̯̲͕̯̭̝͕͕͙͔̘̫̹̣̳̹̹͕͍͓͙̰͍͓͇̮̯̓̑͛̌̅̐̑͐̒́͗̽̃̂̈́̀́̎̅̇̇͊́̀͆̈́̅͛̍̉̽́͆̿͗̀́̇̈̂̃̈́̐͌̔̈̔̍̎̊̾̿̒̑͂̄̓͗̔̍̍͐͒̇̅͆̋̏́̔͐̚̕͘̚͘͘͜͜͠͝͠͝͠͝͝ͅÁ̸̧̛̛̹̖̝̞̘͍̘͎̟͎̼̘̱̪̘̺͐̿̈̈́͂̽̋̔͒̋́̍̄̅͋͌̓̏̈́̍̏̽̕͝͝͝ﻼ̵̛̱̟͇̣̤̬͖̰̺̳͎̙̟̫̖̆̔́͆͑̓̀̌̔̌̃̄͋͊̊̔͑̈́́̑̄̕̚͜͝. Upon trying other actions, more beings formed. There were four- all swirling masses of... a combination of "something" and "nothing". The nothingness and the something began to communicate with each other, and then, a thing appeared while they were speaking.  Another thing appeared as they continued, over and over and over. The two realized then that their words had begun to create things, and so they then decided to create another space for them to stay and isolate themselves from the things, and to test these words and their limits.

After speaking a few words, a tiny, dense little sphere began to form in front of them. "Something" and "nothing" looked at each other in slight confusion, a feeling, but then continued speaking. The sphere then collapsed, and turned into a big, bright explosion as the swirling masses watched. The two things continued speaking at a rapid pace -- though it seemed more like rapping by today's standards -- which resulted in the sphere expanding incredibly quickly. Things in the sphere coalesced. After this, "something" and "nothing" spoke into existence a form for the swirling masses. The two immediately began to care for the swirling masses that now had small humanoid bodies, and gave them names in the language they created. It seemed the first family had formed, and the former swirling masses began to care for one another.

 After a little while and after "something" and "nothing" interacted with the not-so-swirling masses they now considered their children for a while, the sphere cooled down, getting rid of the heat that came after the explosion, as the things watched. Soon, things began to clump together and make clumps of things, then these clumps clumped into bigger clumps, and soon things formed in the sphere. Some things glowed bright, others were dark, and some were solid. Portals to access their space and portals that connected to other portals formed as things collapsed into themselves, and they also created an invisible thing -- an energy -- that flows everywhere, that can be manipulated, and this energy also controls the things that happen within given spheres. On top of this, they also created basic rules to be followed by their creations and a phrase that could be expressed as what would later be a number that described the history, present, and likely future of the sphere it was in.

As this happened, they organized the space they created for themselves into different areas, each for different things. They developed a name for the main area where they stayed along with the former swirling masses, or, their children. They named the place [...], and they created other beings to help them create spheres. The new beings first tested their abilities by creating areas within the larger space for themselves, where they would reside. One of the beings was rather rebellious, and started a fight with "something" and "nothing". The fight lasted for a short while, ending with the rebellious one surrendering- the first instance of conflict.

The group then continued creating spheres, putting much time into each as "something" and "nothing" gradually let the beings they created do more of the work. These spheres began to grow infinitely and stretch into every direction, with spheres growing spheres inside of each other. Inside the 42248th sphere, things started to form that were similar to the two original bodies created by the thing and the nothingness, and they began to grow on their thing within one of the infinitely-sized spheres, known as a planet, accompanied by intimidating, powerful creatures. These things began to grow and prosper, so the beings decided to create their own version. The two of them wondered how they would do this, so they gathered around and began to brainstorm ideas.

Upon realizing that the beings could create things by uniting the forces and power of "something" and "nothing" instead of purely by speech, they created more "things". Collectively wanting to create a being part of the aforementioned things on the planet with terrifying lifeforms, they did so, and the being went on to create great things. Soon, the beings noticed an anomaly in the energy the two creators had created, and this was the moment they realized the concept of time, that it was created, and that it could be manipulated. They looked at each other, and then decided to rest in their respective spaces, but not after creating a machine that would protect the space created by the two creators and expand the space they created under supervision.

After even more time had passed, the planet where the thing the beings had created lived now harbored the capital of a civilization so large they had almost taken over their local chunk of infinitely-sized sphere. They had also invented a machine which could communicate with the two creators, which they found interesting. The creators and the beings grew fearful, and the creators personally attacked a small group of the civilization's spacefaring vessels. A terrifyingly powerful section of vessels arrived less than a minute later along with their rather furious leader, and after a short skirmish, both [agreed to willingly join the civilization and work for one of their agencies.]

It is said they still work for the EXTF to this day.

EXTF Declassified Archive Note: Stories will evolve over time, and the origins of this one are said to be as old as time, literally. It is then expected for it to be retold and retold over and over, with stories and flair being added to it. Therefore, it is reasonable not to expect this story to be true in its entirety.
