Embark on a journey through the enchanting world of Excretus, where the Silvas and the Harenas, two races entrenched in an eternal conflict, take center stage. But hold on, because we're not here to harp on the ceaseless battles. No, my friend, I in...
So, in the beginning, there was nothing. Just an endless void of eternal nothingness, until, suddenly, a god appeared, or manifested into existence. His name is 'Bada,' a real overachiever—he's the god of water, storm, sun, hunting, and battle. Picture this: a handsome, giant humanoid with serpent-like flair. One day, Bada, tired of the endless dark, decided to spice things up. He created oceans, the sky, and thought, "Hey, you know what would make this better? Fish!" And just like that, rivers and oceans got an upgrade with fish, dolphins, sharks, and whatever else he fancied.
Then, strolling in decades later, we have another god, or goddess, 'Zinou.' She's all about the moon, stars, farm, home, healing, and magic. A look at the watery landscape, and she's like, "Cool, but it needs land!" So, she went on a creation spree, throwing in plants, trees, and all the critters. Bada, seeing his pristine ocean invaded by islands, wasn't thrilled. He confronted Zinou, and instead of an epic god brawl, she ran off, calling him a lizard man. Classic love story material, right?
Bada, motivated by what he thought was love, chased her for seven days. When Zinou stopped, she had an epiphany: "What if I didn't run? What if I want him to catch me?" So, she turned, unleashed purple fire, and the gods ended up having a decade-long battle that could rival any Marvel movie. Eventually, they called a truce, deciding to split ruling duties—Bada during the day, Zinou at night. Day and night cycle sorted.
They became friends, shared shift stories, and, surprise, surprise, fell in love. After their honeymoon, they got a wild idea: "Let's make people worship us!" So, they created the first mortals, the 'Dynaloids,' or 'Zhangzis,' meaning "First ones" in Harena and Silva language. And yes, there's a version where their child, Zia or Shoul, did the creating. But that child doesn't get much airtime in myths. The Dynaloids roamed Excretus before it got split into the two races we know today, the Silvas and Harenas. Not much is known about them. Yet.
Now, as for those two groups we've been teasing, they haven't made their grand entrance into the divine drama just yet. Stay tuned for that spectacle.
