"Then the Eternal Radiance rose over the world like an eagle, and the golden fog of the primordial element poured forth from the god's outstretched wings of light. Proudly swelling at their new command, the fogs descended upon the world like droplets of water shaken from a bird's feathers. And where the fog touched, all the evil was unmade, reduced, and refashioned into that very same golden fog.
"Finally, rushing upwards, the fog gathered and roiled in the heavens above leveled nature. The Sublime Light took the fog into radiant hands and shaped it into great rocks. These the Eternal Radiance threw back down to the world. As the stones fell, they expelled the rigor of their kind and suppled into softness. When they landed, they grew warm. Some became forests, some oceans, some broad fields."
—from the Holy Ovidiana
