Creation Myth for RPG World-building Project

So as promised here is the myth that the people who populate the fictional realms of the Tribes that we are going to be building here believe in. Or at least the version of it that is believed by the as of yet unnamed example tribe that I'll put up soon. The tribe is a bit of a lore keeper type of tribe (spoiler alert LOL).

In the earliest of days the world was dark and empty,

The gods looked at this and it made them sad,

So they gathered together and spoke with each other,

“Let us make new friends for us to know and teach,”

“But where shall they live?” said the gods to each other,

“For they cannot live in the realms of the gods.”

“Then we will make a place for them to call their own,”

“Come let us make form from the emptiness, and light from the dark.”

So the gods shaped the world, building the world that would become home to the Tribes,

They formed a beautiful and perfect home for the First Tribe,

A wonderful Haven where they wanted for nothing and were always safe,

And the gods watched over the Tribe and taught them many things,

But soon the gods became disappointed with the Tribe,

For they became fat and lazy and did not listen to the gods’ teachings,

“Look at our friends;” said the gods, “they are foolish and lazy”

And the gods’ anger became great and they burned away the First Tribe,

The gods were then sad at the loss of their new friends,

And they decided that they should try again to make friends to teach,

“But how will we stop them from being fat and lazy like the last ones?”

Then the gods gathered together again and thought on these things,

After a time the gods decided on what they would do,

They shaped the world anew, creating the world that we know today,

Instead of a single perfect haven, they shaped many varied lands,

Instead of a soft place of safety, they shaped a crucible for the Tribes to test themselves upon,

The gods made many new friends to fill the new lands,

They said to each other, “As the lands shall harden and sharpen them,”

“So to shall they harden and sharpen each other,”

“In this way they shall never grow soft and foolish,”

Thus the Tribes were formed. They have endured many trials and hardships,

They have grown in power and knowledge, and always revered the gods’ commands,

Every year they gather at Haven, to greet the new friends that the gods send,

And each year those who come of age go on to be with the gods.

This is how it has been ever since, and how it shall always be.
