    Hide and Seek: A Creation Narrative

    In the beginning the world was without order or substance save for the primordial divine spirits. Thr first spirits floated in the void for timeless eons, and in their boredom contrived to play a game of hide and seek. Some of the spirits hid themselves in the fabric of the void, becoming time, space, and the laws that govern existence. Some of the spirits hid themselves within the new rules of existence, becoming the stars and the planets governed by them. Some of the spirits hid themselves in the stars and the planets, becoming the mortal races and their gods. Finally, some of the spirits hid themselves in the hearts and minds of the material creatures, becoming the gods, angels, and demons of the outer planes. Last of all, one remains, counting to Graham's Number. When it finishes it will seek out the other spirits and the world will become undone, returning to the void as it was before.

    EDIT:

    Fiberius The Creator-Destroyer: Another Creation Myth

    Fiberius the all-hungering is the creator and the destroyer. During each universe his hunger grows until finally he can bear it no longer and devours the world. The world then passes through him and emerges transformed, a new universe. Then Fiberius retreats from the universe for eons, until finally he gets so hungry he eats it, and the cycle begins anew.
