Before empires, before prayers, before the world had names—there were two boys and a tree that never stopped growing.

This is the origin of Naaru and Muro, the Twin Aspects of the World Tree. One chose to climb forever, chasing the branches into the stars. The other chose to stay, to tend the fire and gather others close. Together, they became gods—and opposites.
