Through a God's Eyes

Book

Hello there pony. If you are actually reading this then I applaud you. I mean Celestia has probably hid this thing in the deepest darkest place she could find. So you are either really curious or just plane lucky. Of course this is assuming you are a pony. If not then I formally greet you new dominent species that is reading this.

In any case thats not why you are reading this, no, no, no, you want to see what is in it. With a title and description I can't blame you for being curious; it is in your nature.

So lets start at the begining, with the creator and her gods. "But wait," you say there are no gods in Equestria. Well thats just what Celestia wants you to think; those were the terms of our agreement. Don't worry I will get to that though, I promise.

Originally there was but an idea, a seed if you want a metaphor, something that had the potential to grow into something beautiful. There are several versions of this part, as old as I am I wasn't born yet, some say the creator was alone in making it all; while, others say she managed to gather a team that became one to perfect our world. In any case our world was born.

If you are wondering our creator's name well you are out of luck. You see no one knows not even us gods, although I once swore I heard a bit of it something along the lines of, "...ren Fau..."

What is for sure is that the world was born. The only problem? No one was in it! This new utopia needed some creatures to spearhead its development, but inhabitants could not all be made by one. So using her omnipotent abilities the creator gave birth to the gods of equestria.

Each of us unique in our own ways. Only three of us actually looked similar to the creator, but it was as if she was devided among us. One recieved the wings, another her horn, and finally her strength. The rest of the immortals were in various shapes and sizes. Many looked like the combination of wild animals, I like to think these guys were what happened when the creator just fused the first two things she saw. I mean a lion and an eagle really?

Of course all these new beings had one desire to know why we exist and what we are to do. The first thing the creator asked of us was to find what abilities nature had given us. We could see how leaving it up to chance bothered the creator, I found it strangely satisfying. She said, "Harmoney can only be achieved through your natural progression."

Centuries passed, like hours to us, we slowly discovered our own talents not knowing this would serve as what we were to rule as gods. I noted that once we discovered our place our coats, or feathers and scales respectively, changed into a very holy or blinding white.

Then the creator asked something strange of us; she wanted us to fill her world. We did not understand, but she explained it as creating living beings in our own images and giving them talents based on our own.

I found this rather simple. I flew into the clouds, where I called home, and worked on my creation. Much trial and error led to the most majestically powerful creator in the world. The gifts I granted them was to control the weather and live in the clouds, this being my own power and kingdom. They were born with flight to be free and advanced vision to allow what they do to be possible.

Wait before I continue this would be a good time to introduce myself. I mean where are my manners. Hello there reader,  I am the king of the sky, the lord of pegasi, the god of chance, none other than the one and only Black Phoenix, but please just call me BP.
