Origins of the Universe

At the beginning there was only nothingness, both existing and non existing, both alive and dead, just
a blackness, or rather a lack of all colors, in an unlimited space with a nonexistent centre. Then, a
primordial energy came into existence from the sheer will of existing. It started slowly compressing
and expanding itself, each time bringing into existence something, however small it might have been.
Over an undefined amount of time the universe came into being, and that same energy that created it
developed a will of its own, and it started seeking creation, wishing to use its powers to develop
something astounding: for the first time since the beginning, life was being created, a small scale
planet that would host two different species. And as such, Void Beasts and the ancient Warlocks came
into being. The Warlocks were deer humanoids, kind to each other, and developed a power inherited
by an half of their creator, something akin to magic, yet slightly different: it was the power of wishes,
the ability to bring into reality their will and impart it onto the universe, and a Warlock's strength was
represented by the length of their horns, as well as the pattern on them. The Void Beasts were the
exact opposite, they ate one another, and they possessed the other half of their creator: a destructive
power that was unrivaled, their crystallized bodies able to gather and convey energy into destructive
blows. The will of the primordial force wanted to see which half was the strongest, the dominant one.
And so, the life that it made was thrown into war from birth, the Void Beasts invading as much as
possible, trying to destroy what the Warlocks created, and the Warlocks fighting for their lives, to
preserve their own species. And the will of the primordial force stood on its throne in the sky, gazing
excitedly at the slaughter unfolding before its eyes, eager to know the answer to her question. It could
not forsee that its own creation might one day be its downfall. One day, a young Warlock began
studying wish magic differently, he didn't try to use it in the conventional way, instead he sought the
ultimate counter: Wishbreaker, so he called it. A state of mind that could overcome the failsafe in the
mortal brain that limited it to only “realistic” thoughts, if the young Warlock could only achieve that,
then beating a god would be possible, he could free its people from this neverending cycle of war.
After centuries of studying and perfecting his magic, he gathered a group of powerful Warlocks that
could shake the pillars that held the sky, and even tamed a group of Void Beasts to take on their own
creator. When the will of the primordial force realized what was happening it was already too late. By
giving up their own existence, Warlocks and void beasts split their god in two different entities, forever
breaking its grip on the fate of the universe, but in doing so splitting themselves as well, creating the
races that to this day inhabit the universe. The separation of such an entity shook the entire universe,
as the two halves, the Void and the Wasabi Sea, became pure energy that went on to create planets
and modify stars, thus completing the canvas in the sea of stars. The Void created black holes and gas
giants, while the Wasabi Sea created solid and water planets, and a mix of the two created stars like
the sun, but there was only one planet that was a perfect mix of Wasabi Sea and Void: Earth. And that
same planet would host the inheritance of the Warlocks, various species such as goblins, animagi,
humans and their more direct descendants, the witches. The Void Beasts’ descendants inhabited a
place that grafted itself on earth: the Void. From the separation, the countless strengths of the Void
beasts separated into multiple species, and the void-rich enviroment allowed them to evolve further.
