Script[]

Storyteller In the beginning, there was naught but the blackest depths. A great nothing without beginning or end.
Then, there was light.
An angelic being cuts through a swarm of dark creatures, leaving a planet in its wake.
Storyteller It cut the darkness like a blade and from that wound poured all the earth and the seas.
The swarm of dark creatures moves to surround the newly formed planet.
Storyteller Enraged by the light's arrogance, the dark made to swallow up the whole of the earth and the seas once more.
The Trickster is holding a bag that says "not the world," and is looking at the light inside of it.
Storyteller But the Trickster so loved the world that he hid it from the darkness in his bag. So too did he hide the light to look upon the world he coveted.
