The Weaving of Pelegona
In the beginning, there was nothing but the Loom — an endless, starless expanse, silent but for the hum of threads yet unwoven.
The Goddesses stepped from the shadow between nowhere and now, carrying two great spools: Selaveth, thread of silver peace, and Korrin, thread of crimson fire. They set them upon the Loom and began to weave.
From Selaveth’s silver came the bones of the world: mountains, rivers, the steady pull of the tides. From Korrin’s crimson came the breath and pulse: storms, volcanoes, the heat in every living chest. The threads crossed and tangled, and where they knotted, stars were born.
When the first pattern was complete, the Goddesses pulled the cloth taut and struck it like a drum. The sound rolled outward, waking the Four Winds, each carrying a season in its arms:
Spring, the quickening, whispering in green.
Summer, the blaze, singing in gold.
Autumn, the reckoning, murmuring in amber.
Winter, the keeper, speaking in silver.
But the Loom was not yet finished. They gathered the frayed edges — the loose ends of dreams, fears, and unshaped clay — and spun them into the First Ones. Not a single couple, but many, scattered across sea and plain, mountain and forest, each made from a different pairing of silver and crimson thread.
Some shone brighter with Selaveth’s calm light; others burned hotter with Korrin’s restless spark. They were not kin, yet all were bound by the same weave, destined to meet, clash, and mingle their threads until the tapestry grew so vast no mortal eye could see its edge.
When Their work was done, the Goddesses stepped back. They tied the moons into the sky — Selaveth to watch with quiet patience, Korrin to dance in wild arcs — and left the Loom spinning, so that the cloth of the world would forever change.
And somewhere, beyond the edge of the weave, the Goddesses still keep the threads and the shears.
