The Plane Creator

Watching the sticky-ball monster he had spent years creating, a creature with only a simple structure, in this narrow place where silence reigned and life could never arise, Du felt that being a Plane Lord was not all it was cracked up to be.

The ragged rift between planes suddenly widened. It was a world belonging to insects, and there he glimpsed the possibility of intelligence.

The lonely creator cast his first pawn into it.

Over the endless ages, it would witness the birth, glory, and fall of countless civilizations.
