''   "Aijzel and Déma set out to hunt for the seed, the E’ar as they now called it, leaving Weoirn to guard the dead lands. He dreamt of what could be and what they could do. The fire and love and dream in his thoughts were enough to wake something deep within the planet itself. The deepest grave started to melt and out of it crawled stones filled with life. When Weoirn noticed what he had done subconsciously, pride swelled within him. He shaped only a dozen into bodies, new life to wander the planet. He kept their graves however, for he knew he had to hide them before the others returned. This new people, named Wirns after Weoirn himself, perfected the mountains and bound the earth tighter. Meanwhile, Aijzel and Déma continued their fruitless hunt for the seed. They broke moons into pieces and tore suns and stars apart, leaving a broken battlefield behind them. ''

'' After a thousand years, they returned with nothing. Before this, Weoirn had melted his people back into the rocks, ready for the other two’s arrival. When they informed him of their fruitless search, Weoirn decided to tell them about his people, to inspire them to do the same, to inflict new hope. Before he could though, there was a sudden beat in the ground of the nameless planet. The three stilled and went to listen, and soon enough there was another beat. Looking into the heart of the dead planet, underneath the surface of stones and deep under the greatest graves, they found the seed. It had fallen into the explosion when the three had created all. And instead of spreading its life onto the surface, it had it contained in the centre of the ground of the planet. Around it was water and plants and creatures of all kinds, although no intelligent life, which surprised them all. Wanting life to fill the surface but also wanting to leave the E’ar’s world untouched, the three dug a tunnel from the highest mountain down into the hidden world. The E’ar breathed life up through the tunnel and filled the world above with it. ''

'' Clouds graced the skies, water roared the deep depths, snow clouded the mountain and life drifted over the lands within years. Déma, Aijzel and Weoirn all felt proud over their creation. They had created the first life, the first glowing beauty and although Déma and Aijzel didn’t know, the first people. They called their creation Alandor." ''
