Creation Myth:
Long ago, when Rathnir was but an empty slate, waiting to be engraved with divine imagination, there were two beings. The eldest, Thiil, was responsible for the world of Rathnir. And so they let out a might breath, from which came the sky. Once the sky was in place, they scattered sand far and wide. However, something didn't feel right still. Rathnir felt empty and null. Moreover, Thiil was feeling lonely, and without anyone else in all of existence, and so they wept, creating great seas and oceans. From that downpour, and the sheer loneliness that the universe was bearing upon itself, it created another being, Ahshah, to comfort Thiil. It also bestowed upon Ahshah the ability to create life. And so Ahshah set about creating all the flora and fauna of Rathnir, weaving grass into the remaining patches of soil. But still, Thiil felt that Rathnir wasn't perfect, a sentiment that Ahshah agreed with. And so they crafted special lumps of flesh and bone, fashioning them into tiny marionettes. Wanting to give them life, they poured a most divine honey into the tiny puppets, and cut their strings loose. These people would be named Thajains. It wasn't long before the Thajains desired more people and sentient life to interact with and befriend, and so it was that the other races of Rathnir were born.
