The Balance of Existence
In the beginning, before the universe was born, there existed three gods: Phanes, the God of Creation, who brought life and light into the void; Shiva, the God of Destruction, who ensured balance through necessary endings; and Hades, the God of the Underworld, who governed what lay beyond death. Together, they maintained an eternal equilibrium.
However, everything changes when Phanes, inspired by a vision, creates the universe—a vast expanse of stars, planets, and life. While Phanes marvels at the beauty of his creation, Shiva and Hades begin to fear that this unchecked expansion threatens the cosmic balance. Shiva believes that without destruction, life loses its meaning, and Hades fears the endless creation will leave no room for death, thus disturbing the natural cycle.
