Magikore
I want my first story to be something unusual, something people will have a hard time copying. To this end, I created Magikore (not magic-whore, not magic-corn, magikore. As in Magic-Lore.) Magikore isn't only one story, it's a web of stories that all blend into one working world. It's how I percieve the world during meditation, this is the first time I put words to it.

The first thing I'd like to write is the frame of Magikore. Imagine a panticle (a star with a circle around it.)

At the top of the panticle, on the top point, sits Galaxan-The essence of space.

The point to the right of that is Morbis-the essence of death.

To the right again, now at the bottom right point of the panticle, sits Chronos (or father time)-the essence of time.

On the bottom left sits Gaea (mother earth)-the essence of nature. These two were given the bottom two points on purpose, as they are commonly referred to as the parents of life.

On the top left corner sits Soula- the essence of spirit.

These elements are all equally important-none of them could stand alone, nor could any of them stand without all of them together. Spirit, the life force of the universe couldn't stand alone, for there would be nothing to give life to, or any time to do it in, or any space in which to do it. So it goes with time, space, death, and nature.

That's the most general view. Now, we go to the valleys in between the points which get a little more specific.

Between the points of Galexan(space) and Morbis(death) Lies dormancy. Dormancy is more important than what most people will credit it to. If nothing could lay dormant, there would be now way of telling the active from the inactive, the living from the inanimate. Peace of mind, identity, they would mean little if things couldn't lay dormant.

Where Morbis (death) and Chronos(time) meet, lies mortality, for given time, all things must die. If everybody were immortal, then only that around us would die, and we would exist in a barren wasteland for all of eternity, overpopulating the earth, floating through space, ect.

Where Chronos(time) and Gaea(nature) meet, sits Growth. Given time, all plants and animals will grow. If not, then we would all have the capacity of newborns, and squirm around until we die.

Where Gaea(nature) and Soula(spirit) meet, sits life. Spirit gives life to the vessles nature has created. I think we all understand the importance of life.

Finally, where Soula(spirit) and Galexan(space) meet, sits the multiverse(or universe, depending on what you believe.) I like to think of planets as goblets of life, the keepers of spirit. When nature produces a vessel, a little of that spirit is given to that vessel to make it live. In this way we are all connected. But without nature in the mix, the planets will drift timelessly through space.

At the very center of the framework sits existance, around which all these elements revolve.

That's the basic framework. There's a lot more, including the family the framework makes, the childeren of the Frame, and how this ties into us. What do you think so far?
