The Beginning of All Things
Long before gods. Before thrones. Before the first star cracked open in the void—
There were the Progenitors.
Born from the raw essence of the World Vein—the first surge of creation—they weren't made. They were willed into being by existence itself. Not as kings or rulers. But as the first representations of life, balance, and will.
There were seven.
The Vampire Progenitor.
The Human Progenitor.
The Elven Progenitor.
The Dragon Progenitor.
The Demon Progenitor.
The Spirit Progenitor.
And the Beast Progenitor.
Each of them rose from a different strand of the World Vein, their forms taking shape based on the primal nature of what they were meant to protect.
The Vampire Progenitor—tall, pale, eyes like eclipses—was the balance between life and death. A being who thrived in twilight. Not predator, not prey. Just… eternal.
