In the beginning there was only darkness. From darkness came Koas the god over all. He was created from the great beast to create a light and a day and a night. He worked long and hard and eventually grew lazy and so with his power he created the goddess Ferni to do his work for him. Koas, without knowing it, had left his essence of creation inside Ferni and from this she created Hendi the god of the skys. Together Hendi and Ferni created the sun and the moon. During this time of work hendi and ferni fell in love and together had a son named Corabas. When Corabas was born he cried for three days and from his tears came the seas.
Koas soon noticed the family that Ferni had created for herself and grew jealous and thus drew his plans for battle against Ferni. When the battle started it was just Ferni her family and Koas and as most battles go Ferni and Koas grew weaker and suffered many wounds and from Ferni’s wounds came man and metal. And from Koas’s blood came the many beasts of the world and the fires of the underworld. As mother earth, Ferni loved all creations and instantly took man beast and metal into her loving embrace.
From metal man learned many skills such as how to plow, cut, and even kill and that is how man became mortal. Man loved there mother earth and worshiped both her and the other gods created during the war (such as Slotho god of death and Showbase goddess of war) and because of this she blessed man with intelligence. From this intelligence came the building of settlement and settlements into cities. And men continued to love there mother earth and worship her until koas cursed man with forgetfulness.
