Before anything

There was nothing

Nothing at all

Then there was something

These things were elemental spirits of all kinds, there were beings of air, ice, fire, and even light, but there was one spirit that was unique, one of a kind. All this creature of darkness wanted was to be accepted, but it was only rejected and isolated. Slowly it began to lose its mind becoming just a wandering shadow of its past self, missing a part of itself. Eons passed, galaxies, solar systems, planets, and life on the planets began to form. Most of the beings were recognized as gods and given great names such as Poseidon, Loki, and Mother Earth, but the dark shadow was still alone, still just a mindless husk looking for something, still broken, unable to be fixed.
