Long ago, at the beginning of time, there stood a lone man. All alone in a vast, empty world, he wandered, leaving behind him a trail of flowers with every step he took. Though he didn't mind the solitude at first, the thought of a companion filled his thoughts wholly until finally, he conceded to his thoughts. At the edge of a large river, he planted a tree to let it gather energy of the world around him. After a long while, with as much of his power as he could muster, he fragmented his power into two new beings, Ignis, a draconic man with a rather large build and hotheaded nature, and Circe, a tall and slender woman, who surprisingly kept the long, pointed ears of his kind but lacked the horns and tail that the other two kept on them. Though a surprising outcome, Genesis softly smiled as he welcomed them into the world.

The three continued to wander the vast world, and though the waters, the plants and the wind were all wonderful, Genesis had decided that once again, he would like to add more life unto it. He gave his students the next task of creation, letting them off on their own to decide what kind of beings they would like to make. Genesis started by making animals. Both large and small, they would inhabit the world and partake in its blessings.

Circe made beings in her own image. They were tall, graceful, and could harness the power of light. The Elves were curious, intellectual beings who were not afraid to go out into the world and find ways to exist with each other.

On the other side, Ignis created dragons in his own image. Large, powerful beings gifted with the power of flight and one of the four elements at random. They all started the same, curious to learn how to exist in the world around them, except there was a key difference between the two races. The dragons had a hunger. They were not sure what it was for, exactly, but a deep craving was set within them, wanting.

Genesis and Ignis argued for what felt like an eternity. The draconic people were violent, and power hungry. At the end of all the disagreements, Genesis conceded. He would not deny his pupil, and he would give the dragons a chance to learn, no matter how long it took. Thus, Genesis took to teaching. Showing anyone who would listen the ways of the elements, and the land around them, and how to provide for themselves as they were able. Circe taught the people to control their magic, using it to help sustain things in their life and harness their natural power. Lastly, Ignis taught the people how to fight. Though senseless violence was often found in the land, Ignis had a high sense of pride in not preying on the weak, and so he would teach the strong to really fight and give it their all, so one day he may have an opponent strong enough to satisfy him. He would often challenge both Genesis and Circe to duels, but was always turned down.

The world was slowly falling into place, the Gods and the mortals alike doing what they could to make a life for themselves. Suddenly, a strange illness appeared. A draconic man fell to the floor, his hands turning black and ashy as his fingers shifted into claws. His eyes started to glow, and his teeth became even more monstrous, before he began to attack those around him. He had completely lost himself, unable to make sounds more than grunts and snarls, before being subdued by stronger men. Upon learning of this affliction, Genesis arrived quickly to try and find the cause, though could not cure the man of his ailment. It was the first time he had ever been unsuccessful, and he only solved the first one by taking the fiend away before locking him away, until a cure could be found.

The problem progressed naturally, spreading through the land in unexpected and inconsistent ways. Genesis and Circes set to the task of finding a cure, though Ignis once again took a separate path of destruction to the demons, often making them disappear into the night until they were able to heal and return.

As time went on, the world renounced the God of Life. They only saw the suffering he caused, and pushed for the other Gods to save them from their miserable fates, thus did Genesis seemingly fade away into obscurity.
