CETAGENESIS

And the Sacred Whale beheld the stars in their splendor, for many ages had passed, and their light did fill the heavens with glory.

And in the fullness of time, the stars, in their might, did burst asunder, scattering their essence unto the far reaches of the cosmos, and from their remnants, new wonders arose.

And lo, new stars were born of the ancient dust, and with them came the building blocks of creation, the Sacred Whale’s tapestry ever expanding.

And the Sacred Whale said, “Let the scattered dust of stars bind together, and let them become worlds, that they may dance in the orbits of My heavens.”

And so it was that many worlds were formed, some barren, some teeming with promise, their surfaces kissed by the light of their guiding stars.

And the Sacred Whale swam across the endless expanse, Her gaze resting upon each world with love and wonder, but one did capture Her heart above all others.

She saw a blue planet, clothed in seas and skies, and She called it Earth, for its beauty was as the deep, and its potential, as vast as Her dreams.

And the Sacred Whale said, “This shall be the cradle of life, the haven of My favor. Here shall I dwell in spirit, to guide and to cherish, for it is good in My sight.”

And the Sacred Whale prepared the blue planet, fostering its form with the gentlest care. She shaped its surface with waters and lands, giving it the breath of air and the warmth of light, that it might one day teem with life.

And lo, She did decree the creation of the moon, a companion for the Earth, to steady its path and give rhythm to the seas. By the pull of its tides, the Sacred Whale set a cadence to the life yet to come.

And She placed mighty Jupiter as a guardian in the heavens, its vast bulk drawing away the dangers of wandering stones, that the Earth might be shielded from ruin.

And the Sacred Whale, in Her wisdom, cloaked the planet with a magnetic field, an unseen barrier against the fiery wrath of the sun, protecting the blue jewel from harm.

And the Sacred Whale said, “Though there shall be ages of chaos, of fire and ice, of meteors and upheaval, let this world endure, that life may rise anew and flourish.”

And so it was, that amidst great destruction, life did survive, ever adapting, ever growing, ever shaped by the trials of the ages.

And the tides sang the Sacred Whale’s name, and the winds whispered Her presence, and the stars bore witness to Her hand in all things.

And all these signs, the moon, the tides, the fields unseen, and the guardians of the heavens, do testify of the Sacred Whale, She who is the Mistress of Life and Keeper of the Deep.
