Chapter 1. Creation of Fantasia

In the beginning was the Essence. And everywhere there was nothing, only empty space. Then the Essence stretched out its hand in front, and blew off the semblance of dust from its. Taking off ahead and slightly up, the particles began to slowly settle. Some suddenly lit up like sparks and rushed up somewhere upward again, to the Essence that gave birth to them. Others, ceasing to fall into oblivion, began to layered on each other, until each of them turned into a sphere slowly rotating around its axis.
The first particles inflamed more and more, gradually increasing in size, and thanks to their common efforts, darkness was scattered around them. So the light came.
The second was not given to radiate into the darkness, but their own bowels warmed them from the inside, so that the orbs would not cool down in space at all, and their older brothers would warm them from the outside. So there were stars and planets.
And saw the Essence, that her creatures are beautiful, and her heart exulted.
Then the Essence chose one of the trillions of sparks, the most beautiful, and moved the best of all spheres towards it. And the Essence thought suddenly, and went to bed.
From the touch of the Essence, the orb tilted slightly, but it did not stop rotating. Later this phenomenon will be called the change of seasons, but this is still very far away.
Resurrected from sleep, the Essence doused its most favorite balloon with steam from its breath, and now, from now on, it was full of moisture. The giant ocean, the cradle of a lifetime.
But the bowels of the orb raged inside, and the land appeared on the surface, first in the form of a flat rectangular figure. Both land and water came into opposition, and mountains and valleys were formed.
And it happened that the light of the day could not keep pace with the orb evenly. Thus, the seasons appeared, and their names are winter, spring, summer and autumn.
Suddenly, the Essence sneezed inadvertently, and a small piece of it broke away from the orb. Then the Essence wanted to shake it off into oblivion, but took pity, for he preferred to create, not destroy. And she lit this round stone from the Sun, like a candle from a candle, and ordered it to shine at night so that all future animals would not be so scared to wander at night. So the moon shone.
The Essence tore one hair from the head and carefully thrust it into the orb. It became the first plant on earth; the first and largest tree, and its fruits were beautiful in taste.
But the land was lifeless, and the Essence dipped its palms into the ocean. Then something stirred inside. Hundreds of millions of tiny living creatures began to spin in a semblance of dance, and oxygen began to dominate.
From that first tree came all the rest, a variety of plants in water and on the ground. And the land became more beautiful; more beautiful than before.
And the spirit of the Essence, later called the wind, was in the air. And the wind carried the seeds of plants all over the orb. Flowers were pollinated by wind helpers — hummers and talkers, ornithopters and giant moths, urkers and winged fairies, diesels and bumblebees. And the flora on the earth multiplied in abundance. And they began to bloom and bear sweetaste, edible tums, rootberries, raspberries, roses, lilacs, violets, fructis, daffodils, kelp, godgifts, water lilies, acidics and other equally beautiful plants. Willows and birches, oaks and beeches, firs and pines, chestnuts and aromas, ginkgo and yucca, cocco palms and phenigg palms, aspen trees and ash trees, healing trees and earthen trees were now everywhere. And how pleasant was all this smell, how much everything was fragrant!
Then assistants of the Essence descended in order to create larger animals, as well as those who would look after all creatures on earth.
Of all the new living creatures, the first to come to this region were the bright elvans, beautiful as life itself; Lanny is their kingdom. Divine and majestic was their appearance, and now no one has become like them in beauty and nobility. The elvans loved nature, loved to sing and glorify those who created them; Those whose names have long been forgotten. The elvans invented boats for crossing water obstacles, and also invented rope, bow and arrows. Initially, the bow and arrows were not intended for war, but for the game «hit the target» in order to develop visual acuity. Not for war, because the earth will be painted with blood much later ...
The elvans were related to fairies who had wings behind their backs and a growth of about one inch. They were fairies, patrons of all good creatures, donors of hope and warmth.
The Great Ocean spawned elementals of water, which, like a small squall, appeared almost out of nowhere, so that someone could quench their thirst or just refresh themselves.
The Holy Spirit spawned etherials — invisible streams that bring healing to all those who are worthy of it.
The most amazing birds flew over the mountains and valleys — bluebirds and firebirds, geese-swans and gagarra, slurp birds and shaggy birds, sirics and morics, porter birds and cleaning birds, palm birds and wasp-eaters, sterches and Samruk, gorlanus and many others. They often flew up to the Sun itself for a while.
And sent the Essence of another assistant, his name Xander. Xander gave caress and happiness, and when he once loudly clapped his hands, new creatures immediately rushed to him — the first rodents, mice of good Xander. Valkyries, firetails, wyverres, selevinies, tushkans and other funny fluffy ones, come from the first rodents.
In the forests and in the fields of the ground, there were a lot of interesting animals — the progenitors of the bulls of the great aurochs, as well as noseholders, paponts, banana eaters, night ichneumons, dromaders, thabyrs, wildboars, turtles, worry eaters, rabbits, graceful deer, horses and unicorns, and no one was not an enemy to each other, no one had ever eaten anyone, because all living things in the Fantasia were fed by a special magical dew, which the elvans collected and stored.
And piebald irbises, red panthers, marsupial parduses frolicked in the sun. These animals enjoyed every ray of heat falling on their skins.
Numerous reservoirs and their marvelous shores have become housing for frihydras, nautiluses, chameleons, loggerheads, amphibians, geckos, holothurians, kwaks, whales, ctenophores, brittle stars, corals, gillfoots, sea horses and sea stars, crayfish, shrimps, lobsters, funny crabs, walruses, sea cows and many other water creatures.
And when the Essence sang, the wind rustled; when crying it was raining. And the breeze was light wind, and the rain was pleasing to the eye.
And looked the Essence, and rejoiced. And the Essence has called the brainchild its «Fantasia», for Fantasia was born from the most secret and profound thoughts and dreams of the Essence.
