Yurilendrith'vor

== Introduction ==
Yurilendrith'vor, also referred to as the Religion of Yurilisim, is a religion in Kylorne, that is centered around the core ideals of Nature, Life, and Harmony. These three vital ideals manifest themselves in the shape of the leading deity of this religion, Kaelivarastra’Kara, the deity of nature, life, and harmony. The main form of worship in the Yurilendrith'vor religion is through contributing service, aid, assistance, and tribute towards Kaelivarastra’Kara/Kaelerni'kara. Worshiping Kaelivarastra’Kara/Kaelerni'kara is not a requirement to be apart of the Yurilendrith'vor religion. To be a part of the Yurilendrith'vor religion, you must spend your time protecting, spreading, and fighting for nature, life and harmony. Many do this by worshiping Kaelivarastra’Kara, as she is the deity of nature, life, and harmony, however it is not necessarily a requirement to be part of the Yurilendrith'vor religion, and by directly protecting, spreading, and fighting for nature, life and harmony, you are still doing the work and teachings of the Yurilendrith'vor religion.
== Creation Story ==
Life before the universe is unimaginable, unthinkable, inconceivable, unbelievable, unspeakable and  incomprehensible to the mind of a sentient organism. It was a desolate, barren, despondent wasteland, unhostiple and dismal to any living organism, to any object or item, to any thought, action, or mental and physical capability. A universe, or maybe, a anti universe one might say, that was completely and utterly bleak, stark, and grim, a lonely, depressing, isolate, and miserable state of infinitely eternal melancholy, were the maid was forced to loop forever in a constant repetitive state of mind numbing insanity inducing being breaking state of a passive pensiveness and contemplativeness. However, what was just described, the same thing that comes straight into your mind when your ears transfer the interpreted sounds of a sentient individual saying “life before the universe”, is completely and utterly incorrect. Life before the universe was not “desololet” nor “barren” nor “despondent” nor “inhospitable” nor “blank start or grim”, since before the universe, none of those ideas, those concepts, those realities of life, existed. The “life before the universe” was neither a dark void, because darkness did not exist and voids did not exist. The “life before the universe” was never or would ever be a “blank eternal infinet pit” because the color “black” did not exist and neither did “eternalness” “infiniteness” or “pits". Absolutely, thoroughly, completely, clearly, entirely, eternally, infinitely, definitely, and certainly, beyond what a mere mortal of the status of a reality locked unseeing sentient organism could ever understand, nothing existed, weather that be abstract, physical, mental, emotional, chronological, spiritual, conceptual, psychological, conceptual, hypothetical, intellectual, speculative, theoretical, or metaphysical. Try and imagine a world, a universe, or whatever an individual may refer to it as, where absolutely nothing existed, ever, in the past present future, jt nothing. There is no time, there is no space, there is no “you” or “i” or anyone else. 
There.
Is.
Nothing.
You can't imagine it, can you? Like I stated before, to a mere mortal sentient organism like you, the idea is in all ways  unimaginable, unthinkable, inconceivable, unbelievable, unspeakable and  incomprehensible. Even if you tried your hardest, you could not, as the mind of a sentient organism, for now, is not powerful or knowing or even imaginative or creative or resourceful enough to understand such a concept, and most likely, never will be. Even if you were, somehow, unthinkably, impossibly, and incomprehensibly able to imagine such a mind bending conscious shattering scenario, your depiction of the “life before the universe” still would not be 100% accurate as, your consciousness is still present, as it is depicting this unimaginably impossible visual for you, and for you to imagine nothingness in its true form, you must also, have no conscience. This, as the more intelligent or witfull readers may have understood or atleast puzzled out by this point into our, “life before the universe”, description is, in fact, an impossible thought question, a question so mind bending, bearing breaking,universe shattering, brain bursting, and unsolvable, that, for all we know, it will remained unsolvable and unthinkable for, i the most likely scenario, until the universe suffers from heat death, and life after the universe begins, and it probably won't be solved for an infinite eternity from there on. This may seem irrelevant to talk about, useless to discuss, unreasonable to think about, yet it is where our story begins. 
You see, The “life before the universe” was never truly empty to begin with, as you see, in this anti universe of sorts lies a semi-existent abstract lifeform, made from no skin, no fur, no scales, no cellular structure, and, in fact, no physical body at all. Yet, this semi-existent abstract lifeform was made from no spiritual, nor ghostly, nor angelic, nor metaphysical, nor immaterial, nor, in fact, any non physical body at all. This semi-physical abstract lifeform, instead, is made up of the remnants of specific ideas that never came to be, coming together to manifest as spirits, that represent what never came to exist. These are Myslenka Stann, the remnants of empty concepts of specific ideas that never came to be, manifesting together into a spirit that represents the empty concept of a specific idea that never came to be. 
Here is an example of a Myslenkas'tann:
In the “life before the universe” fire never existed, leaving the concept of fire empty, as the idea of fire does not exist, and since a concept can only be filled if an idea inhabits it, the concept of fire will remain empty without the fulfilled idea of fire present to fill it. This empty concept of fire then manifests in the “life before the universe” as a spirit, that should represent fire ( the fulfilled concept of fire) but without the idea of fire ever existing, the spirit instead represents what could of been fire, acting as a representation of an idea that would never come into existence, being a empty concept spirit. There are empty concept sports for every idea in the universe that never came to exist, and for the infinet eternity the Myslenkas'tann would spend in the “life before the universe” you would live in constant pain, suffering, torcher, torment, trauma, dread, misery, horror, abuse, maltreatment, and living experiances of what seems like a state of living that is worse than hell. The Myslenkas'tann’s life could be summarized as an infinitely eternal existence of agony worse than the deepest pits of hell and suffering. The “life before the universe”, for the Myslenkas'tann, was a fate worse than death, a life worse then the sufferings of the entire universe, after the “life before the universe’, combined. They could not perform any form of action, speech, interaction, or expression, as only the empty concepts of those desires existed, as the ideas of those concepts could never come into existence naturally in the “life before the universe”. So for the Myslenkas'tann in the “life before the universe” all seemed hopeless and lost, destined and lunchable, until one fateful Myslenkas'tann manifested into existence within the “life before the universe. This Myslenkas'tann was the Myslenkas'tann of nature, life, and harmony, however, unlike the other Myslenkas'tann, the Myslenkas'tann of nature, life and harmony had a fulfilled concept. Life did exist in the “life before the universe”, in the shape of the Myslenkas'tann. This meant that the idea of life also existed in the “life before the universe” since life existed in the “life before the universe”, meaning the idea had to exist as well. With the idea of life existing in the “life before the universe”, however, that meant the concept of life within the “life before the universe” was also fulfilled as well, since if an idea came into existence, that means the concept of the idea if fulfilled, since the concept of the idea, is the idea itself, which now exists. With the concept of life fulfilled, however, that meant the Myslenkas'tann of life, nature, and harmony was now a fully existent Myslenkas'tann, since they were the manifestation of the concept of life, which now existed due to the idea of life existing. Since the Myslenkas'tann  of nature, life, and harmony now had a fulfilled concept, they could now perform actions relating to that concept, as the concept now existed, meaning ideas related to the concept now existed as well. Seeing her fellow Myslenkas'tann in agony, the Myslenkas'tann  of nature, life, and harmony would use her fulfilled concept and the actions relating to it to fulfill the concepts of other Myslenkas'tann. Here is an example of how she did that:
Let's say the Myslenkas'tann of nature, life, and harmony created a rabbit.  Myslenkas'tann of nature, life, and harmony could do that since rabbits were a form of life, and since the concept of life now existed, that means any concept related to life can now be fulfilled, if the idea that corresponds to the concept is created. So the  Myslenkas'tann of nature, life, and harmony creates a rabbit, that means that the idea of rabbits now exists. And since the idea of rabbits now exists, that means the concept of rabbits now exists as well. And since the concept of rabbits now exists, that means the  Myslenkas'tann taht had the empty concept of rabbits, is now a fulfilled  Myslenkas'tann, since they now have a fulfilled concept. This would continue on, with fulfilled  Myslenkas'tanns using actions that corresponded with these concepts to fulfill the concepts of other Myslenkas'tanns. Some Myslenkas'tanns would even combine actions from each of their corresponding concepts to fulfill another Myslenkas'tanns concept, if they could not do it by themselves. Soon enough, every Myslenkas'tann had had an idea created for them, and had been given a fulfilled concept. The influx of concepts and ideas now everywhere within the “life “life before the universe has disappeared, creating a universe in its stay. After the universe came into existence and being, the Myslenkas'tann would continue existing, however, due to the sheer influx of ideas, concepts, and creativity across the universe, the concepts and ideas of each Myslenkas'tann would grow stronger and more powerful, causing the Myslenkas'tann to grow more powerful as well. Each Myslenkas'tann would take up a new name, to symbolize what ideas and concepts they represented, and what part of the universe they would be in control of. The Myslenkas'tann of nature, life, and harmony would take up the name Kaelivarastra’Kara, and would, in the next few centuries, become the deity of the Yurilendrith'vor religion
== Mythological History ==
=== Ancient History ===
Hundreds upon thousands of years ago, during the some of the earliest points of time in Kylornes ever expanding history, the religion of Yurilendrith'vor, a translation of the ancient name of the religion, which was written by the first worshippers of Kaelivarastra’Kara in the religions holy language, Yuril, used to be commonplace in the northeast continent of Kyloren, back then known as Kaelerni'kara, But nowadays known as the continent of Kavernis. The Religion Of Yurilendrith'vor in the northeast continent of Kavernis, mostly, was only present in Yurilic tribes, with these tribes not being very spread out, and instead all centralized in the lower, warmer, regions of Kavernis, as that was were the most nature was, meaning that was were Kaelerni'kara was the most present. The Yurilic natives of Kavernis put Kaelivarastra’Kara above their friends, family, partners, rulers, governments, and even themselves. The natives of Kavernis believed that without Kaelivarastra’Kara, the world would still be stuck the same way it was, during life before the universe. Their livelihoods, their friends, their families, their partners, their rules, their governments, and even themselves, only existed because of Kaelivarastra’Kara, and what she did to free all other Myslenkas'tann, and help create the universe itself. The Yurilik natives believed as if their entire lives, their entire world, the happiness and joy they felt throughout their lives, was all in debt to Kaelivarastra’Kara, and what she had done to save all future generations of the world. The Yurilik Natives Of Kavernis spent their entire lives devoting their entire existence and being for their entire lives, towards Kaelivarastra’Kara. She was the center of their economy, society, government, and their daily lives. Yurilendrith'vor was Truly at the center of everything, as it had become everything to the Yurilik Natives Of Kavernis. However, as time went on, things changed. New people groups migrated, colonized, and settled the northeast continent of Kyloren, and those very same people brought along with them there religions, there cultures, there traditions, there beliefs, there society, economy, and government, and as all that started flooding into Kavernis, causing for Yurilendrith'vor, over time, to start fading away into obscurity and forgottenness. Over the next few centuries, the religion of Yurilendrith'vor broke apart, with more and more natives who were once part of the great religion either being slaughtered due to ethnic, cultural, and religious differences, converting to avoid death or out of their own will, losing belief in the religion, or just forgetting about it as time went on. Whatever the reason was, by the end of the next few centuries, the once great religion of Yurilendrith'vor had died out, broken apart and absolutely decimated. 
=== Foundation of Goodimpig ===
The religion of Yurilendrith'vor would stay dead for the next few centuries, that was until one fateful day, when her holiness, Kaelivarastra’Kara, after what seemed like millions of searching, had finally found a mortal who appreciated nature as much as he did. He was an ally, who was fleeing the wrathful hate of the pillagers who enslaved his kind in a far away land. He had found refuge on Kyloren, and was looking for a place to settle down. This name was Innihilus, Innihilus the Allay. Kaelivarastra’Kara, would stalk Innihilus for the next couple days, observing every action he made, every word he said, every thought that went through his mind, until one day everything changed. Innihilus had been seeking asylum in lush hills of grass of stone when, in a fit of starvation, he had almost killed an innocent pig for food, breaking his oath to never hurt the nature which he swore to protect. However, right before he could kill the pig, lightning shot down from the sky, and he would become injured after suffering a direct hit from that very same lightning. The pig had been struck by the lightning as well, however the pig had suffered a different fate from what Innihilus had. The pig had turned into a humanoid figure after being struck by the lightning and would manifest a golden sword within its hands. Kaelivarastra’Kara had been the one to summon this lightning, not only to stop Innihilus from killing the pig, but also to possess the pig, to guide Innihilus personally, through the path he was destined to walk. Innihilus believed the gods had struck him down for defaulting on his oath, and they had converted the pig into a holy messenger so they could personally guide Innihilus in defending Kylorne's nature, and all that inhabited it. The holy messenger pig would guide Innihilus to a nearby coast and would tell him to create a boat so they could set sail to a holy uncolonized land. Innihilus obliged, and would start his voyage into the sea, accompanied by the holy messenger pig. The gods would send dolphins to guide Innihilus to the holy land. These dolphins held pie in their mouth, to ensure Innihilus knew he was following the right dolphins. Soon Innihilus and the holy messenger pig would reach the holy lands, and Innihilus would build the holy messenger pig a dedicated underground temple, to show his appreciation to the gods. Innihilus would set up camp in this uncolonized province for several days, however, soon after settling down, Innihilus would see the dolphins once again. The dolphins had come to tell him that he had not reached the holy lands, and this was just but a rest stop in his journey. Innihilus would oblige to set out once again, and he and the holy messenger pig would follow the dolphins into the ocean for a second time. There journey would have travel halfway across the world of Kylorne, from sea to shining sea, and from island to island. Soon, Innihilus would reach the last pitstop on his journey to the holy land, signaling his voyage would soon come to an end. However, he would find something quite strange at this last pit-stop, as hidden within the bushes of a nearby path, was a chest. When Innihilus open this chest, he would be greeted by 2 glittering diamonds, and even more strangely, a glowing cookie. The strange cookie emanated a unmistakably powerful sensation, that could be nothing else short from the work of gods. Innihilus believed the strange items where artifacts were sent down by God, as a reward, for Innihilus sheer dedication to him. Innihilus, now with a new sense of fulfillment would plow on through the night, and the next morning, he would reach the holy land. He would decide to name this new land "Goodimpig", the "G" standing for God, the "oo" standing for cookie, the "dim" standing for diamonds and dolphins simultaneously, and the "pig" standing for the holy messenger pig. Innihilus and the holy messenger pig would camp out on the shore that night, and the next morning, the first thing Innihilus did was begin construction on a church for the god. Kaelerni'kara, satisfied with what she did, would oversee Innihilus's construction on the new holy town of goodempig, in the exact spot where the old Yurilendrith'vor civilizations used to reside, as the holy land she had led innihilus into, was the same land were the old Yurilendrith'vor people lived, in Kavernis.
== Death And Rebirth ==
* Deep within the annals of our cultural beliefs lies a profound understanding of existence that states before the universe came into being, there was absolute nothingness. It is not a void, for void and emptiness did not exist. It is not darkness, as darkness itself had no existence. It is a state where neither life nor death, place nor thing, existed. It is the absence of everything, a primordial state of non-existence. According to this belief system, when we pass from this world, our essence returns to that state of nothingness. It is a transition where our individual consciousness merges with the vast expanse of emptiness that predates creation. However, in this vast void, oen of the Meslenkas'tann, the all-mighty spirit deities, await to receive us as one of the ideas, concepts, objects, persons, places, things, or abstractions they control. The belief further states that we have the power to choose the abstraction with which we become entwined upon our departure from the mortal realm. By intentionally dying in the presence of and focusing solely on that particular abstraction, we align our consciousness with its essence. Rituals are performed to bind our physical remains with the chosen abstraction, burning them to pure nothingness, so they may be sent to the void alongside the departing soul. Through this process, our being becomes intricately linked to the chosen abstraction. It is a transformation where our individuality dissolves, and we become one with the fundamental nature of the chosen aspect of existence. In this state, we exist as pure energy within the realm of the Meslenkas'tann, forever intertwined with the idea, concept, object, person, place, thing, or abstraction we embraced in our transition. This belief system imparts a profound understanding of the ephemeral nature of individual existence and the cyclical interconnectedness of all things. It emphasizes the power of choice, allowing us to shape our eternal connection to the fabric of reality. By consciously aligning ourselves with a specific abstraction, we recognize and honor the unique qualities it represents, allowing us to contribute to the ongoing balance and harmony of the universe. While this belief acknowledges the inevitability of the return to nothingness, it also highlights the transformative potential inherent in our journey beyond life. It encourages intentional living, aligning our actions, thoughts, and intentions with the chosen abstraction we seek to embody, both in life and in death. By embracing this belief, we embrace the notion that our existence is part of a greater tapestry, forever linked to the divine forces that govern the universe. However, your reincarnation is also decided on how you have acted throughout your life. The Meslenkas'tann of moral judjment, Jmauxikauni, constantly, is in every single organisms mind at all times. Jmauxikauni is contsnatly looking through everybodies eyes, seeing there every action, reading there every throught, judging all esances of tehre very existence throughout all lifetime. They will then telokenticly send thai information to the Meslenkas'tann of eternal judjement, Extinite, who decides what you become rencaranted as, depending on how you acted in your lifetime, or if you get rencaranted at all, or if you stay in nothingness for an extended period of time, to ame up for your sins, or if you escape nothingness at all.
== Kaelerni'kara/Kaelivarastra’Kara ==
=== Appearance ===
Kaelerni'kara has a translucent, almost clear, lime green skin that has lighter, lime green swirls moving and changing shape all across her body, like money universe swirling and scattering around, or like seeds, blowing across vast plains of green. The inner workings of Kaelerni'kara can be seen, due to her semi translucent skin, however, there are no organs, veins, brains, muscles, or even fluid like substances within the body of Kaelerni'kara. Instead, a mini ecosystem grows within the body of Kaelerni'kara, with mini trees, flowers, clouds, rocks, dirt, ponds, lakes, mountains, and even miniature tiny little critters running around. In fact, inside of the head of Kaelerni'kara, lies a minute sun that lights up the entire ecosystem. This miniature sun turns into a miniature moon after some time, and back into a miniature sun after even more time, as a night and day cycle continues within the body of Kaelerni'kara. It is assumed that each part of the mini ecosystem within Kaelerni'karas body, represents a portion of her inner workings. For example, the miniature sun and moon within her head may act as her mind, the thick clumps of vines growing all across her inner body may act as her muscles, and the miniature organisms running all around inside of her body, may act as neutrons. Kaelerni'karas hair is made out of moss and vines, growing down from her head like actual hair dose. Flowers, plants, seeds, leaves, and even food items such as berries grow from her hair of moss and vines, with little critters that make a living inside of ehr hair cutting them off, whenever they get too bothersome. Kaelerni'kara wears clothes made up of millions upon trillions of vibrant and unique petals which were harvested from varying different varieties and species of flowers and plants. These petal made clothes are styled as a fusion between a robe and a skirt, with the entirety of the robe and the ending ips of the skirty constantly moving, as if they were eternity flowing gently in the slight breeze of the wind, even if there was no wind. 
=== Personality ===
Kaelerni'kara is not only kind, but caring and loving as well. She watches over and takes care of all living organisms as if they were her children, and because of that, whenever a living organism dies under her watch and care, she becomes greatly devastated, as if one of her own children had just lost their life in her hands. Kaelerni'kara is aware that death, though inevitable, is a natural part and segment of life and nature in general, however, she still can't help but feel devastated, saddened, and depressed whenever a living organism, metaphorically one of her children, dies, right in front of her. On the opposite spectrum, Kaelerni'kara greatly values life, meaning she is greatly joyed and delighted by the prospect of life coming into this world, meaning that Kaelerni'kara greatly values having new living organisms born into the universe. Kaelerni'kara is especially gentle with lifeforms who have just been birthed into the universe, or who are new or completely foreign to the universe itself. This is because Kaelerni'kara sees the new generation as the same generation that is burdened by the responsibility of fixing all of the mistakes that were made by the generations before them, and if this new generation wants to do that properly and efficiently, every sentient organism counts, meaning that keeping the new generation in a good physical and mental state is vital to ensuring that the new generation has greater chances of solving mistakes made by the generations before them.Kaelerni'kara may be a gentle, kind, and loving spirit for most of her conscious eternal life, however, whenever Kaelerni'kara even glimpses someone or something causing harm to the nature, life, and harmony of the universe or to her children, she will enter a furious, blindsighted, violent rage, which often, by the end of it, has resulted in large quantities of mass destruction and rampage, sometimes even destroying entire segments of the universe itself. Kaelerni'kara often feels horrible, terrible, dreadful, depressed, and sometimes even suicidal after these incidents. Kaelerni'kara will often lock herself up in the deepest, darkest, loneliest corners of the universe after these incidents, feeling as if she doesn't deserve happiness for the rest of the entirety. Oftentimes, other Myslenkas'tann would have to spend hundreds upon thousands of years searching, scourging, and exploring the vast reaches of the universe, to bring Kaelerni'kara out of her self isolation. In fact, Kaelerni'kara most of the time would fiercely refuse to come out of her self isolation, and the other Myslenkas'tann would sometimes even have to initiate an all out fight against her to drag her out of her self isolation. These violent outbursts have become less likely to occur in the past few centuries, as Kaelerni'kara learns how to manage her temper and how to work on maintaining a good mental state. Kaelerni'kara dose, still, in fact, have violent outbursts every few centuries, yes, however these violent outbursts have become much less violent with less bloodshed occurring, furthermore, Kaelerni'kara does not isolate herself for as long anymore, and sometimes comes out of her own self isolation herself.
=== Death ===
Among the Myslenkas'tann, there exists a particular group known as the Nylkhandate. Led by Thembrekharnate, their purpose is to return to the state of absolute nothingness that existed before the universe's creation. In the pre-universe era, Thembrekharnate embodied the concept of absolute nothingness and reveled in the absence of all things. However, with the emergence of the universe and the influx of ideas and concepts, Thembrekharnate's fulfilled existence dissipated, leaving them as an empty Myslenkas'tann longing for the return of absolute nothingness. For centuries, the Nylkhandate has been diligently working to weaken the protective fog enveloping the isolated world of Kylrone. They recognized that by diminishing the fog, they could bring about the impending Armageddon of Kylrone. Their patient and subtle actions have gradually chipped away at the fog shield, remaining undetected even by the all-knowing and all-powerful Meslenkas'tann. The Nylkhandate understood that once the protective wall of fog dissipates, external forces would swiftly invade Kylrone. Countless variables would come into play as different individuals, groups, and entities driven by greed, power, and malevolence pour into the continent. Barbarians, doppelgangers, natural disasters, ideological and political factions, malevolent company-owned entities, armies, fleets, soldiers, holy orders from different religions, cults, extremists, criminal organizations, magic-wielding beings, warriors from other realms, and numerous other influences would be among the invaders. The magnitude of these threats would overwhelm Kylrone, leading to chaos, turmoil, violence, and conflict. The land would become a battleground, with battles, invasions, sieges, and wars raging throughout. The Armageddon would reduce Kylrone to a weakened, desolate, and pitiful version of its former self. The continent would be left vulnerable and devoid of life, a shattered remnant that could easily be eradicated into absolute nothingness by the Nylkhandate. As Thembrekharnate descended upon the world of Kylorne, devastation and chaos followed in his wake. The holy ziggurat, a sacred sanctuary dedicated to the revered messenger pig, Kaelivarastra’Kara, and the holy city of Goodimpig, constructed by the esteemed prophet Innihilus, were both situated atop the sacred land of Yurilendrith'vor. This land was not only the native home of the Yuril people but also the dwelling place of other devotees of the Meslenkas'tann and a specially adapted ecosystem teeming with unique Yuril animals and plants. Thembrekharnate unleashed his malevolent power, reducing the surrounding land of the ziggurat to an endless void of absolute nothingness. Despair permeated the atmosphere as the once thriving area was reduced to nothingness. With a savage brutality that mirrored his malevolence, Thembrekharnate seized the holy messenger pig, tearing it apart with his teeth. Kaelivarastra’Kara's spirit was forcibly torn from its vessel, initiating a monumental battle between the Meslenkas'tann of life, nature, and love against the Meslenkas'tann of death. This clash between Kaelivarastra’Kara and Thembrekharnate echoed throughout the cosmos, shaking the very foundations of the vast universe. It was an epic battle, a struggle between opposing forces that embodied the very essence of existence. Each strike between the forces of life and death caused celestial upheaval, shattering the fabric of reality itself. However, despite Kaelivarastra’Kara's valiant efforts, she proved unable to withstand the overwhelming darkness emanating from Thembrekharnate. With a devastating bite, he injected her with his essence of absolute nothingness, obliterating her presence and erasing her from existence. Kaelivarastra’Kara, the greatest Meslenkas'tann of all, was consumed by the void, forever lost and forgotten.

=== The Creation Of Trees ===
Long ago, when the universe was still young, Kaelerni'kara roamed the cosmos, admiring the beauty and wonder of creation. She watched as stars were born and died, as planets formed and evolved, and as life sprang up in all its diversity. One day, as Kaelerni'kara was exploring a remote corner of the universe, she encountered a Myslenkas'tann who was unlike any she had ever met before. This Myslenkas'tann was named Jamularta'kit , and he was a master of structure and architecture. Jamularta'kit had a deep understanding of how to design and build structures that were not only functional but also beautiful. He showed Kaelerni'kara how to create buildings that blended seamlessly with their surroundings, using natural materials and incorporating elements of the environment into their design. Kaelerni'kara was fascinated by Jamularta'kit's work and spent many years learning from him. She helped him design and build structures on planets all across the universe, and together they created some of the most beautiful and functional buildings ever seen. As they worked together, Kaelerni'kara and Jamularta'kit  grew closer and closer, until they fell deeply in love. They spent many happy years exploring the universe together, designing buildings and structures that harmonized perfectly with their surroundings. But Kaelerni'kara was always looking for new ways to express her creativity and bring beauty to the universe. One day, as she was admiring the towering palaces of the Myslenkas'tann  Hub, where all the Myslenkas'tann’s lived and socialized. Each Myslenkas'tann to ever exist had a place, built especially for them, by Jamularta'kit . She suddenly saw a massively tall castle, building a spiral form, with a large canopy of what seemed to be galaxies laying on top of it. The spiral has hieroglyphes of the stories of the Myslenkas'tann’s carved on its surface. There were so many stories engraved onto the palace, that the entire spiral was covered in them. Suddenly, while observing the odd yet beautiful castle, Kaelerni'kara had an idea. She approached Jamularta'kit  and explained her vision to him. She wanted to create something that was both beautiful and functional, something that would provide shelter and nourishment to living creatures while also enhancing the natural beauty of the world. Together, Kaelerni'kara and Jamularta'kit  began to design the first trees. They worked tirelessly, carefully considering every aspect of the trees' structure and function. They designed roots that would anchor the trees firmly in the ground, branches that would reach towards the sky, and leaves that would capture sunlight and convert it into energy.  As they worked, Kaelerni'kara infused the trees with her own special magic, imbuing them with the ability to grow and change with the passing of time. She created different species of trees, each with its own unique form and function, from the towering redwoods to the delicate cherry blossoms. The trees were a great success. They provided shelter and nourishment to countless living creatures, from the smallest insects to the largest mammals. They also enhanced the natural beauty of the world, creating stunning vistas and serene landscapes. As the centuries passed, Kaelerni'kara and Jamularta'kit’s love only grew stronger. They continued to explore the universe together, creating beautiful structures and bringing harmony to the world.
