Chapter 25 - Shaping Mín Heimr

Chibi Alex stood before the massive black hole, its gravitational pull warping the space around it. He floated at a safe distance, where the gravitational pull was 1.5 times that of Earth's. With a focused gesture, a crystalline structure began to form, rapidly expanding into a circle that completely encased the black hole.

The structure was the same crystal that had been used to craft the Silmarils, and Alex patted it, feeling satisfaction with his work.

"Lily," Alex asked, "why does the core of the universe need to collect energy through a black hole?"

Lily hovered around Alex as she responded "The black hole, in a way, absorbs and disintegrates matter, then recycles the energy back into the core, allowing it to regenerate and maintain balance."

"As I thought," Alex responded.

Turning his attention to the planets behind him, Alex extended a hand. With a gesture, the planets shattered, breaking into molten chunks. The fragments surged toward the crystal-encased black hole, spreading across it.

As they collided with the crystalline surface, the molten metal began to solidify into veins of ore. Magma cooled into rock, forming ridges and mountains that rose like giant spires from the surface.

The surface of the new land became a disc-shaped world, with gigantic multicolored crystals growing downward in reverse where the encased black hole was held, providing gravity to the land above. The landscape took shape with towering mountains, deep valleys, and vast plains.

Craters, some large enough to form lakes, dotted the surface, while other valleys filled with rich minerals. Alex named the land 'Pediás', the plain.

Next, Alex turned his focus to the suns he had chosen. With a thought, the suns fused together, stabilized by his energy, forming a massive ball of light that hovered above the newly formed world. It orbits in a rotating elliptical path above and below the flat world, creating distinct day-night cycles.

A golden, warm light bathes the surface during the day phase. During the night phase, the sun heats the underworld, glowing faintly as it casts refracted rainbow light back to the surface edge.

Two planets the size of Earth became the moons, one glowing with a white brilliance. He called it 'Leukós', meaning 'white', and the other with a soft blue hue, which he named 'Kyanós', meaning 'blue'. Farther away, a third planet, the size of Neptune, remained dim and lifeless.

Chibi Lily then approached the third planet and looked at Alex. "Can I color it now?" she asked.

Alex smiled and gave her a nod.

The figure of Lily, a golden Chibi Angel, glowed, and then the planet transformed, turning into a ball of light casting a soft glow of varying colors like a rainbow.

"Are you happy with it now?" Alex asked with amusement.

Lily patted her chest, "Yes, it will be so pretty at night, unlike those boring moons you created," Lily smugly stated.

"So, what are you going to name it?" Alex asked curiously.

"I will name it 'Irissel', based on Ancient Greek, which means rainbow moon."

"Nice name. It's the same for the other two," Alex chuckled and continued his work.

He gestured towards the three celestial bodies, and they orbited the surface. All three moons follow a complex, infinity-loop orbit, harmoniously synchronized to never collide, casting their glow on the land below.

The two sister moons orbit next to each other, while the larger rainbow moon follows further.

With the sun and moons now in place, Alex knew the world was still incomplete. It needed an atmosphere, water cycle, and a breath of air.

Approaching the massive, flat world, Alex raised a hand and cast a shimmering barrier around it, enclosing it like a protective shell. He flew over the land, watching the landscape.

Then, with a surge of his will, massive amounts of water began to pour, synthesized directly from his power.

The water spread across the land, cooling the surface. Vast expanses turned into seas, and rivers connected the craters, forming lakes.

At the cold less sunlit edges, towering ice walls dominate. These glisten with frozen beauty, reflecting light like crystal prisms.

On the sunlit edges, water spills downward into an endless abyss, forming roaring waterfalls that vanish into misty depths.

The water flowed freely from the upper layer of the world into the lower layer, or the underworld, where it was heated by the light of the suns during the night phase. The evaporating water turned into steam, rising and forming clouds that gathered above, accumulating as the day cycle began again.

Using his control, Alex created seasons, breathable air, and the first gust of wind. The clouds released their moisture, and rain poured back onto the land, replenishing the water below.

The atmosphere features dynamic weather system, with gentle breezes and violent storms. The shifting position of the sun ensures clear seasonal changes, from verdant springs to serene, snowy winters.

 With the perfect cycle in place, Alex's next task was to breathe life into the land. The water, now flowing through the valleys and hills, would eventually nourish the plants. Alex envisioned forests, fields, and grasslands, places where plants could take root and thrive. The landscape, once barren, would soon be teeming with life.

The creatures that would roam it were still uncertain, as Alex continued to visit other worlds, gaining inspiration and knowledge. Alex stood still, gazing at the world he had shaped, feeling the pulse of energy that flowed through every part of it. It was his Genesis.
