1 This is the beginning of the Testimony of Haeka which he spoke to the children of the Elder Reign.
Introduction
2 My sons and my daughters, do you desire to know the origins of all things? How the world you live in came to be? The order of the days in which it was made? Do you desire to know all things in regards to creation? Then listen to me.
3 This is the origin of all things: There is one creator who made all things, he is a person like us, a communion of persons within us. He created all things for the sake of his pleasure, but he himself lacks nothing. He created a multitude of unseen heavens and the vast expanse of the world around us and he alone knows all things, performs all things, and loves all things for he alone is the origin of all.
Sentient Races before the Fae
4 In the beginning of creation he created a man named Adam who was set over the whole of this creation, if there are others I do not know, but in this creation, this world he set a man over it, and his wife ruled over the whole world with him. However, these two men fell when a serpent from the unseen heaven fell away from God's grace in order to deceive them, and this serpent caused them to sin causing the whole race of men to be deserted by his grace. So, God determined in his heart that he would make a more perfect vessel to rule over the whole of creation, so he made the dragons, and the Mirii, and he made me.
5 However, the dragons fell away when the same Satan, appearing in the form of the dragon, convinced them to sin by making them believe he was their God. The sin of these dragons was only a little one, for it was done out of ignorance, and God quickly revealed to them the truth and the glory of his saints, but since they had fallen into weakness God promised to give them a greater shepherd who would keep them from all sin.
6 The Mirii who were made in a world near to that of men were meant to guide the dragons, but they themselves had to first be guided by the dragons so that they may grow in knowledge and wisdom, but Satan appeared to them also in the form of a dragon and convinced them all to sin and to follow after all the debaucheries of men. The Mirii became worse then men, and they even caused some of the dragons to fall into sin, and when God saw that there was not a single righteous one left among them, he caused them to be utterly destroyed.
The Awakening of the Elders
7 Then God created me, fourth of all his stewards, and he raised me up to govern the world he had made. He said to me in the moment he awakened me: "Go, Awaken your brethren." And he set before my face the whole earth and the world that encircles it and the star which enlightens it and he said to me, "cry out to the light and from the beginning of the stars to their ending, call out to them and say unto them 'awake, my brother, for I am calling you, awake for the time of your redemption is nigh, awake for the world is yours to rule over it, for the creator has taken pity on you and has sought to make you anew."
8 Then I cried out to the light and I said unto it whatever the creator had said unto me, and the light came unto me in the form of a man, and he greeted me as his brother. Then, it seemed to me, all the light within this creation began to slow down, the stars of heaven grew dim, and the dragons, the watchers, and some of the Mirii descended unto earth.
9 When my brother came to me, I rejoiced that I would have another friend and another creature like unto me, but the creator was not finished with me or my brother for he said unto me, "Awaken your brethren which dwell in the waters, in the uttermost parts of the void, in the depths of the earth. Awaken your brethren, call out to the waters and the sea and the uttermost bounds of earth, to that which divides creation from the floods around it, which guards you as you sleep and awaken your brother that dwells within it." And I awakened him, and he came unto me in the form of a man. His name is Viv, his skin is blue, and you know him for the fun and the recreation he gives you and how he teaches you to surf in his water-world of Vilya.
