Btw, aipars are the star-like things in the void. This was so much fun to write.
Not many know much about the void. Most think it is an empty black vacuum, devoid of life.
They couldn't be more wrong.
If you were to survive in there for longer than your fragile human body allows, you would feel it. Feel the compressing and decompressing of its breathing around you. Hear the dull thudding of its heart. See the thousands of eyes floating in its depths.
But, the void is not a being. Although it has breath, eyes, and a heartbeat, that is not enough to be a being in of itself. These things must be connected, unified, to form a being.
And every few decades, they are.
The breath becomes uneven in an area, disrupting the balance and bringing two aipars closer to each other. And when these aipars meet, they begin to circle around each other, separated only a few centimeters. The void around it gets sucked towards them, condensing and slowly assuming a humanoid shape.
The being flows with the breath and heartbeat surrounding it, and eventually develops its own.
This is how creatures of the void are created.
These creatures, voidlings, have glowing white eyes and leathery dark grey skin. Black horns adorn their head in various arrangements, and long spined tails sprout from their lower back. Some are gifted with large feathery wings, sometimes stretching to over 6 meters in length. These wings sometimes came in sets of two or even three, four being possible but almost unheard of.
For centuries, these beings wandered alone. Eventually, however, they found others. These voidlings began to gather in large groups, and began to build. They made great cities, finding out where their fellow voidlings were most likely to spawn. The scattered void beings united to become a powerful and thriving civilization, long before the beings of the overworld had.
However, this was not a perfect system.
The void is an ecosystem just as any other, and the flow of progress began to corrupt it. The void became polluted and evil, the purity and life it once held being stamped out by the desire for more. The lesser beings died off, poisoned by the ever growing corruption. The government union that had kept the system fair and equal dissolved into a monarchy of evil and complete power.
As the void became more and more polluted and evil, so did the voidlings. Over the eons, they lost their large feathery wings, as well as the ability to grow more than one set. Smaller leathery wings grew in their place, poisoned and evil. The magic the voidlings possessed was corrupted as well. Instead of the pure, beautiful magic that varied greatly from being to being, their magic was corrupted, made up of nothing but raw power. Their eyes began to change as well, the once bright spheres of light that floated around the expanse of the void turning a dull grey and losing their glow.
The most notable change was their personalities. The voidlings used to have a wide variety of personalities, each one different from the next. But as the corruption of the void grew, they all turned evil and bloodthirsty.
The void had been damaged beyond repair by the greed and ignorance of others, and the voidlings had turned themselves, a once proud and beautiful race, into soulless monsters.
The figure shifted in the darkness of the void. It could feel itself breathing, felt the pressure of the void pressing down on it like a warm blanket. It flexed its wings, spreading first the top ones, followed by the lower ones, and ending with the ones on its tail.
Then it blinked, opening a set of glowing white eyes.
