They sat in a circle, the two of them. Theirs was a shared awareness of no thing. Infinite possibility, a vision of lords, dansed between them, will of Creator, wisp of eessence. Incapable of boredom, with some sense of humor, a combined energy, was given birth the moment.
Having no sense of entitlement, not only did they not name the Child... Time, it was loosed, allowed a will of its own. These of the circle yawned as their Child adopted a spirical tone, wrapped itself in Universe, mad inventions of its own. These made a terrible howling and the parents, annoyed by the Child's noisome toys, allowed the two-sided circle to close. Thus were erected the heir apparent and errant parent.

This spoiled Child, angry and alone, playing in the blood of its mud, began to manufacture discontent and a creature whose image mirrored what it imagined it might be, given mortality and physical form. These chose to idolize themselves and porcelain Gods in their image.
The Child, Time, swore a fury of vengeance upon these it had made, that they would wither away, face all ways a declining and decrepit flesh, hunger ever more for youth as Time itself devoured all before and about them.

Finally each moment was named for this merciless master. The hollow spheres of its kingdom were erected temples owned in the name given the master and that name was GOD.
