AJ Lore: The Birth of Jamaa

''Making a series called "AJ Lore". Suggestions for stories based on unexplainable things in AJ would be greatly appreciated.''

Before anything in the world was made, a great god named Zios was there. He was born from the Earth and turned himself into a man. Many years passed and Zios was lonely. Zios cried many tears, and before you knew it the Ocean was born.

"Why do you weep, my King?" asked the Ocean.

"I am mourning because I haven't anyone to love," Zios replied.

The Ocean loved Zios and used his waves to create a bird of great size. Because the bird was so wonderful, Zios named her "Mira."

Every day, Mira would go out and create the wonders of the world. She, with the help of the Ocean, created waterfalls, beasts, birds, fish. However, Mira and the Ocean grew angry at one another, for each believed that Zios loved them more.

"Zios loves me because I created you," the Ocean growled.

"Zios loves me because I was created!" Mira snapped back.

Mira grew very angry with the Ocean, and spit into his waves. The Ocean quickly broke away from his waves before a great danger was born. A terrible creature emerged from the water, and grew a horrendous eye and long, dark tentacles. It split into many pieces, and these pieces were called "Phantoms".

Zios was very enraged with Mira and the Ocean, but his love for them was too great. He carefully placed Mira in the sky, and the Ocean beneath the ground. He could not get rid of the phantoms, for their hatred and power was too great. Zios turned himself into the Land and the trees, so that the phantoms were blocked off from the small world known as Jamaa.

To this day, the phantoms are still blocked off from the land.
