Nova who the fuck is nova
Isn’t there only a sun and moon goddess?
Even then, most people don’t even know enough about those to 2 besides….
Someone I probably shouldn’t mention it if I don’t want you attacking earth-
Did you get a third partner?
....Storytime.
I'm a particularly religious gem of sorts, and moreover I'm also a scientist at heart. That means I like research and my beliefs are subject to the same passionate research elsewise would be...
and I found nothing.
It was early in our relationship with homeworld, only afew thousand years in and I'd grown a bit quiet. I pray at regular intervals at the respective altars of the sun and moon goddesses but... I had started to feel out of place. White, yellow, blue, pink, Iridescence, all their gems and most of our own...
I sat outside one of the sun altars, a small statue in the palace courtyard while I fought with thoughts of self worth while I asked
"...Why am I a man? Everyone I know and look up to is feminine, Why... Why do I have to be different.."
mother knew i was supposed to be mid-prayer and the only thing I was in the middle of was quietly sobbing. Do you know what that's like? To look into the cosmos and see constant suggestions that your very code is wrong in some fundamental way? I was convinced I was a galactic-grade mistake.
I... I felt her. my intuition powers and her natural aura make it easy to tell when shes around- at least when she isnt trying to hide it for some reason. I got told a great big story that left me a bit more centered in the world
"White hid what didn't suit her empire, so I think you might not have seen this before..I might've needed to give it too you sooner but i'd hoped your heart would'nt suffer such burden"
"in the universe's creation, there were two gods in existence. A man, and a woman. Nova, the man, Has two epithets- forms he takes when dealing in the universe. Nova Aether, guardian of space, and Nova Chronos, overseer of time. (he's also the reason i love my beard more than ever, he's got STYLE)
"Nova was there before the universe, but inthe universe's creation had come with a goddess, a woman named Metia who oversaw purity and mixture.
"Metia spent billions of years working with and growing to love Nova. Nova created planets and stars, but as a testament to their love, Metia asked if she could bare children unto him. He declared her his chosen and She in return chose him. Together they created the Sun Goddess Solara and Moon Goddess Salina, twins born of the extremes like fire and ice found in the new grand universe.
"These twins had decided after billions more years, they wanted to partake in creation too. They asked for help creating something new, Something they called a Diamond.
Nova placed and augmented 650 planets and placed two red giants at the center, letting Solara and Salina seed a Diamond, a god made of stone rather than energy... but the seed split, and that split diamond formed into you and I."
"...He looks like me, momma."
"So I've noticed, Starling. It's why I knew I'd have to show you him someday
"...So, I'm not wrong?"
"Sweet boy Don't ever say or think that, You're Perfect"
...I needed that experience more than anything. I just wanted to know i wasnt some fluke that propagated.
I was on purpose. And thats the most comforting thought in the cosmos sometimes. that Im not a byproduct, but an achieved goal.
