What was first the beast or the legendaries?
This question is so simple, but I have theories that shed light on Earthbread’s evolutionary timeline.
First, you should know that my theory is based on my theory of time (meaning that years can pass in Earthbread while only days go by in the normal world), so with that in mind, listen up.
The first thing the witches tried, after creating the entire continent, was to scatter a bunch of life dust and cookies so they could start exploring the new world, so they left them there for about a week.
When they returned, the cookies had evolved enough to have villages and territories.
But then, one witch—or many—accidentally, or on purpose, left behind fruits, flowers, and things that shouldn’t have been there in the first place, and then they left again for a week.
And when they returned, the fruits had developed differently—they weren’t cookies, they were dragons—and I suppose they took a few to ask them questions and study them.
They soon discovered what had happened: apparently, someone named Sugar Swan Cookie was the one who spread a great deal of magic throughout Earthbread, causing some places to accumulate more life dust than others, creating an imbalance in evolution.
And first of all, Sugar Swan Cookie wasn’t created by the witches; she was created from all the life dust concentrated in one place.
And they noticed that this balance of life was present not only in dragons, but also in the elements of nature.
But the dragons were the only ones who controlled it, and they used it to threaten the cookies.
So they asked Sugar Swan to distribute more life dust at the epicenter of each element, creating a life form to control that power of creation.
Thus, the guardians were created.
The angry and vengeful dragons began devouring the cookies as a way to take revenge on the witches.
But the elementals forced them to retreat, alongside the cookies who had learned to fight.
And so the age of the dragons ended with a war and then peace.
The witches, realizing that there might be more problems in the future and that the guardians had their limitations, created the virtues.
To guide and protect cookie society, even after the witches’ death.
That’s my theory of Earthbread’s history and timeline; in fact, I also have the different names for Earthbread’s eras.
Genesis Era—the first batches of cookies created, pre-Earthbread.
Pristine Era—the cookies were left on Earthbread to start civilizations.
Dragon Era—dragons were the dominant species and ruled over different territories.
Vestige Era—the guardians, together with the cookies, managed to drive back the dragons, but with negative consequences for the mortal cookies, as many died both in the war and some were no longer suitable for growing food, so resources were limited, but the cookies managed to survive.
The Golden Age—the creation of virtues and the promise of a better life; even those who were still struggling with scarcity quickly came to believe that these virtues would help them.
This is the only mention of the ages, since after the era of the beasts, many records were lost, so no one knows what the ages used to be called.
