My ethereal body shifting and churning like a storm, as usual, I continue to stare down at my creation Origin.

“CHCHCSHRSHSH, FFFRRCCCHHH!!!!

PPFFFOOOFFFFOOWWH!!!!”

A large crack bigger than me opens in the void a little bit away from me.

The crack slowly widens further till it’s big enough to fit me through.

My swirling Mystic eyes shift, staring through the crack.

I see a massive hot pink star, half my size, made of primordial energy and primordial mass.

Seven worlds orbiting her like a solar system, with multiple inner and outer rings of planets.

Her 1st inner ring holding two, the 2nd middle ring three, and the 3rd outer ring two with room for more.

Reaching through the rift, I enter into her universe.

Looking around the void I see only nothingness, except where she is with her worlds, and one other rift besides my own a bit further away, but still adjacent to mine.

Turning back my eyes to her I marvel at her hot pink fiery energy that seems to burn, yet not burning anything as fuel for itself.

Suddenly the hot pink star speaks, her voice like a feminine song, “I am Nexus, like you I am a Primogenitor.

A highly powerful being and creator of worlds, made from my own body.”

Ethereal, “I am Ethereal, it is as you say.

It is nice to meet you, may I ask why you have opened these rifts?”

Nexus, “Curiosity.”

Ethereal, “Really?

Curiosity about what?”

Nexus, “Anything.

Anything new at least.

I’ve stared at and actively developed my own worlds for so long, that I’ve grown quite bored.

I plan on adding two more worlds to my outer ring, but I decided for the hell of it, hey why not experiment with space-time a bit.

I had just finished running simulations in my mind and calculating the techniques to open portals, or as you said rifts, before opening them.

I’ve experimented with my worlds as I created them, but that gets old after a while. ”

Ethereal, “Mhmm, well I started out as some minor ethereal being in a primordial sea of chaos, and ended up drinking the whole thing just to satisfy my thirst.

I then created my first world Origin, several races, and forms of life.

The planet is mainly jungles and temperate woodlands, with massive trees, I also tweaked the local elementals, into more complex forms of sentient life.

I created Overseers and Guardians to help me govern Origin.

Then one of my mortal races was messing with the first step to a summoning circle, and I found out I wasn’t alone in the primordial sea. ”

Nexus, “Oh! Oh! I also started out as a minor being of some kind and drank the entire primordial sea.

After drinking it my body kept bursting into this fiery primordial energy, so I curled up in a ball then reshaped my body into this humongous star.

I created my first few planets with the inner ring worlds being highly heat resistant, and able to absorb or conduct energy easily.

The outer ring I made highly cold resistant and able to repel or negate energy.

Quite interesting that one, took a while for me to figure out how to get survivable life forms.

Turns out the secret is giving everything a finite amount of energy when I first create it then have them ingest the energy from other life forms or material through consumption.

The middle ring is where I really had fun though very diverse.

After interfering and helping them so much I eventually ended up with all my sentient life being sun-worshippers, plus I’m the sun so yay!

Although for a while there, a few of them were worshiping dragons and other weird stuff.

Some of my worlds are peaceful, some of them are hell holes and some of them are balanced, it’s all been very experimental.

One of my worlds is even completely ruled by giant sentient magic cats.”

Ethereal, “Hmm interesting.

I seem to have knowledge of another world, but no memories, just fragments, images.

What about you, do you remember anything?”

Nexus, “Nuh, uh, just knowledge and a few images but nothing related to specific people or myself at all.

Just basic images that seem to help stabilize the knowledge that I do have.

Seems we have more in common than meets the eye, eh, eh, eehhh.

Funny am I right, fu, fu, fu.”

Ethereal, “Yes, ha ha, very funny.”

Out of the other rift came an 11 foot tall, lean yet muscular man, with dark chocolate skin, short spiky white hair slicked back a little, a white fluffy monkey tail, short elf ears, and brilliant white energy engulfing and flowing from his eyes.

He was dressed in white pants with a loincloth over them, and a white ornate sleeveless tunic.

Several others floated in behind him, many either women, or people that seemed to be his fully matured offspring.

There were many variations, about 21 people in total including the many leading from the front.

“Leave.”

“But father, wha”

“Leave.

They mean no harm.”

His followers, or family as I have determined by looking at them and reading their genetic structure, all share his DNA apart from his numerous spouses.

His family all slowly float back through the rift.

“I am Ancestor, Creator of the Mortal Plane and Divine Worlds.

Though I doubt that really matters to either of you.”

Nexus, “I am Nexus, and this is Ethereal.”

Ethereal, “Hi.”

I wave one of the edges of my storm-like body at him.

Ancestor, “A primordial storm with eyes, huh.”
