According to the ancient Atlantians, there are three primordial gods. Zesturphast, god of the Sky. Hhaeds, god of the Underworld, and Atlantis, god of the Sea and water. There are two primordial goddess named Cayosis and Genisis. Goddess of Destruction and goddess of Creation.

Creation of The Universe[]

All of these beings existed, one after the other. They lived in a void, nothing but transparent emptiness. Genisis made the first move. She was always in the void. She existed before there was void. Before there was nothing. She created space and time. However, the void couldn't just disappear, so Genisis used herself as its body. Overtime, the void inside of her kept trying to break out of her body. Unable to bear the stress of all this energy in her body, Genisis's body burst open.

From the inside of Genisis came Cayosis. Cayosis was a polar opposite of Genisis in every way. While Genisis was a creator, Cayosis was a destroyer. However, she wasn't Chaotic like her name suggests. She was cold and calculating. Never just outright destroying things.

When Genisis created Earth, Cayosis left her. She simply observed for the majority of time.

Creation of Earth[]

Genisis created the Earth simply because she wanted to experiment with this idea called life. She wanted to see what her thoughts would look like as living, breathing creatures. Her first creation wasn't a creature, but a god. From the records of the Ancient Atlantians, the majority of them believe that she slit her wrists with her long fingernails. From her blood, Atlantis, god of water was created. She commanded him to create a world of water, and he did. From the water, Atlantis and Genisis working together created land. From what we understand today, the Polytheistic Atlantians believed Earth's land was made out of water and matter from space. Once there was land on Earth, Atlantis and Genisis had their first child, Zesturphast, god of the sky. Zesturphast created a blanket of clouds over the land and water to protect it from what would be Cayosis's first creation. The Sun. The Sun was created specifically for the destruction of Earth. However, thanks to Zesturphast and his clouds, the Earth was protected by from the Sun. However, Genisis and Cayosis argued over who should control Earth. Cayosis or Genisis, Atlantis, and Zesturphast. This was a period known as The Silent Era. During this time, nobody could come to an agreement.

Creation of The Other Seven Planets[]

Enraged by not being represented on Earth, Cayosis did two things. First she cursed the Earth so that any living thing created by Genisis on Earth would need the Sun to survive. Second, she created 8 other planets. (Modern day Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter Saturn, and Uranus. [Plus Pluto]). She did not populate any of these planets with any life however. Still infuriated over the choice made, Cayosis chose to watch over Genisis's next creation.

Creation Of Humans On Earth[]

According to the mythology of the Atlantians, the first humanoid creatures on Earth were products of Genisis. She had wanted to create beings in her own image. She also wanted to honor Zesturphast and Atlantis for helping during The Silent Era. She created a new species named Hyomahns. They were tall, had long, black hair, and red eyes. They were fair skinned and their bodies were androgynous. Genisis allowed Zesturphast to name the first Hyomahn. He named them Ztev. Genisis allowed Atlantis to name the second Hyomahn. He named them Atumme.
