Lore part one (The great shattering)

Back when the universe was being first built by the creator, she walked as one being across the land, conversing with the creatures there. At the time, she was not very busy and had quite a lot of free time. One day, she was out speaking to several small animals, conversing about this, or about that, when a creature broke through a multiverse-enabled portal. The creator greeted this beast as it pulled its dark, mangled body through the portal. The beast rasped for help, and explained that it was a dragon lich, and the magic it contained in its body was coming loose, along with its internal organs. The creator, being kind and caring, asked how she could help. The lich looked at her with evil in his glowing red eyes, disguised as pain and need. It told her that she would need to break herself into three separate parts, and it would release enough power for him to pull himself back together for another five thousand years. The creator nodded and asked how she could put herself back together. The lich said that if she kept her three new parts close enough together after the split, they would combine naturally. The creator nodded and split her soul into three pieces. The lich laughed evilly, preparing for the power boost it would gain from a god splitting itself into multiple parts. Little did it know that when the creator split, she did not do so evenly. Her physical form wavered as her soul broke into thousands of pieces, each of a different size. The dragon lich flapped his wings, startled and filled with new power. It flew off to hide on one of the three moons. Meanwhile, the pieces of the creator's soul were scattered on the winds, landing in all different places. The three main parts of the soul landed near each other and became the trio of gods- the Creator, the Destroyer, and the Unknown. Thirteen landed in a circle and became the chraritys. Four landed in different biomes and became the seasons. One, the tiniest of them all, landed in the eye of a reptile and it changed into the Calire, who immediately burrowed into the center of the earth to grow.
