*"...Hun..."*

*A flicker of thought. What was this? Thoughts... Experiences, sensations. A blank, empty cage, full of darkness. A shell. And he was coated in some strange liquid or goo. The smell of a tree, reeking of life and fruit, pierced into his cage. It was blinding, indescribable. After all, how are you meant to comprehend the sheer size of existence for the very first time, as aware and mature as an adult? Nay, beyond even an adult; a god. The experience was agonizing, it was painful. It was __misery.__ It, or he, wanted it gone. Forever, out of view. He could not bear to tolerate it.*

*"...Hunger..."*

*The feeling of flight; he was not meant to fly like this. He could tell, innately, he was not meant to fly as he was flying now. There was a word for it, but he could not think of it, or describe it... Falling. He was falling. Cosmic winds beat at him, the velocity at which would have been capable of destroying kingdoms in their entirety. He felt his body curl in on itself instinctively, to protect itself from even more pain. He braced for the impact, that felt as though it would take forever. Then, it finally happened*

**CRACK!!**

*He tumbled about in his confinement, twisting and turning violently as much as he could in this space. Light poured into his eyes; he screeched, a forked tongue tasting the goo within his—his egg. He could finally SEE. He saw the edges of his cage, his container. He was in an __egg.__ And the goo he was in was a part of it. Only... It was not like other goo you'd find in other eggs. It was putrid and black, and flowed like tar from the opening. With the goo went his feelings of comfort; he wanted to go outside, to the beyond. His egg felt more and more like a living hell with every passing moment. His body, long and limbless, slithered through the opening. He bashed his head against the egg violently when he encountered resistance and a tighter exit then he desired. It did not take long before he was finally free. The newborn God's eyes were forced to adjust for several moments, before it could finally see. It was on a strange branch, surrounded by several other "Eggs". They were a variety of things; books, fruits, eggs like him, all kinds of things that hinted at creation. Most gods in this newborn's position would have been in awe, to witness this cosmic beauty. But this snake was not in awe. It was disgusted by what it saw. The goo it was in, the darkness and abyss it created, was a far more comforting experience. Out of instinct, it felt it's eyes drift to another egg. It stared, hungrily.*

*"Spread..."* *It didn't even know what it was doing, not yet, as it felt itself slither towards the godly egg. It flicked its tongue out as it approached, licking the side of the egg. A black patch appeared on the egg. Rot, necrosis, of some cosmic variety. The snake could feel distress within the egg; this brought a strange sense of pleasure to the snake. It licked the egg again. And again. And again. With every lick, the egg grew more and more rotten. It was lost in itself, seeking only to continue to make this place, this new world, more pleasing. Then it heard voices; it had never heard them before, but it knew they were creatures like it. Gods. Fear struck the snake's mind; it would be caught. The snake, as fast as it could, slithered down the branches, out of sight. It didn't stop moving; it kept going and going to who knew where. It had to get away from this place, this horrible, nasty place that it didn't belong in. It felt a draw; something calling to it from beyond. A place where this tree had no say. A place that felt like something special to him... It felt like home.*
Ann
Runas was standing on one of the branches thinking to herself, not knowing where she was, she was thinking of all things she did before she became whatever she is now.
She said down and looked up in the sky to see an empty void and just a few stars.
"*Such a peaceful time to live in*" She noticed that time didn't move so she took the time to rest from her previous life
Kirk
Abrielle returned back to the branches — her birthplace, whether it was out of curiosity to take them in more clearly, for more inspiration, a sense of 'nostalgia', or just because. Only Gaia knew. 

She floated around between the branches, trying to spot the flower she bloomed out of— it should be easy to spot, it was bright pink with green leaves surrounding it, a small piece of it having been bitten off. And indeed she did, stumbling across it again she sat down beside the flower, taking in its appearance at full, before out of her hands a replica sprung out, a little duller and much, much smaller, small enough that it could fit on her hat, but it was fine! She attached the replica to her sun hat. Before moving away from the flower, the sentimental moment over now, back to her usual shenanigans! She stared at the branches surrounding her, and to her relief, she found someone again! More friends for her to make! 

Though this was probably to Runas dismay, as one second it was peaceful, and the other a loud voice was ringing in her ears; "HELLO THERE, HELLO THERE!" Abrielle would exclaim, suddenly right behind Runas, as she leaned over to be beside Runas "WHAT'S YOUR NAME? I'M ABRIELLE!" She shouted right into Runas's ear
Ann
Runas looked at the young girl Loadly speak her words, her eyes widen it was the first time she met anyone here, so she was quite pleased seeing someone even a young child, it reminded her of her childhood.
"Hello, there Abrielle!" She said as she caught the young girl's name.
"My name is..." At that moment she realized that she forgot her name it just became a blur in her mind until she heard a small voice in her mind say
"Runas" 
"..My name.. Right it's runas!" She said happily, knowing she would bother herself with answering her questions later.

"Where are we Abrielle?" She also asked curiously
Kirk
"NICE TO MEET YOU, RUNAS!!" Abrielle smiled at the fellow god, fixing her posture up a little and sitting cross-legged in the air in front of Runas, slightly smiling, swinging from side to side as if she had an excess amount of energy that would make her implode if she sat without doing anything 

"Where are we? Welll, I'm not too sure of myself! But we're gods. We can do anything! Or at least that's what my friend Paranoia told me!" Her smile seemed to grow upon mentioning her friend as she paused for a little "I really don't care about the where's and why's, and I don't think you should be either! Just enjoy every second as it passes by!" She gave Runas a thumbs-up, before clapping her arms
Ann
"Gods? You must be joking! I need to get back to my country soon!" 

She laughs nervously, as anxiety sleeps into her mind... 

*What if i am never going to get back?! What if she isn't joking!*" 

She looks not so happy, as one of her hands is cracking another's fingers another one is itching her neck and others are clinging to the wood.
Kirk
Abrielle's smile turned into more of a confused stare "A country? What's that?" She attempted to turn her head to the side, but instead turned her entire body side-ways 

"I'm not joking, I can even show you!" She crosses her arms, still sitting sideways mid-air as if it isn't affecting her "What's so bad about being a god? It's been fun so far! I've met friends and done other things! I'm sure you'll like it too." She didn't seem to grasp Runas emotions fully, not understanding nor sensing anxiety as if her very being repelled said emotions
Ann
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING" She backs up as she has no idea how she's doing that, her 'eyes' are completely wide as she is looking as if she has seen a ghost.
"No no no no," She says as she looks petrified 
"My homeland i need to get back to my sweet motherland what will happen to it? What if it stops existing?!" She holds her 2 hands to where her mouth is supposed to be
Kirk
Her confusion seemed to grow as Runas panicked, she adjusted herself and kinda just floated in the air "Hey wait, I know what to do! My friend showed me this, lemme just—" And with that, Abrielle disappeared, and all of a sudden again appeared right in front of you, hands wide open before she wrapped her arms around you, giving you a hug.. That probably felt more like being restrained. 

But nonetheless, a hug is a hug, and physical touch with the incarnation of summer and life would most likely make some of the worries dissipate and ease Runas anxiety, sooner than later Abrielle pulled away from the surprise hug, a wide smile plastered on her face as clapped her hands together again "Calm a little!"
Ann
Runas freezes for a second after feeling the warmth of a hug it just gave her more nostalgia but she quickly snapped out of it knowing that she now has a different duty she's now a goddess. She quickly warped around 3 of her arm at the child who was hugging her. She felt calm and happy for a second all of her worries are gone. 
As the hug ends she says:
" Thank you i really needed that". She goes quiet for a second and again asks
"What are these islands and what is our role as gods?" She looks at abrielle like a curious child, leaning forward towards Abrielle
Kirk
Abrielle ponders upon the question for a second, turning to sit upside down in the air "These islands are... Well I don't know! But there is where my creations are! So I guess they're creations of other gods?" She tilted her head pointed towards her realm, or well, she pointed in the general direction of the east

"And our role is.. Whatever you want it to be! You can do whatever, it's not like there are any limitations! You can do everything, you can do some things, or you can do nothing, it's up to you! For example, I created, but you could just— float around I guess!"
Ann
"Wow I am... Amazed" She says as if her mind just say something unexplainable.. Suddenly she stands up on the branch and Asks determined 
"How. To. Float" 
She clenches her fists as if she's instead going through painful vaccination instead.
