Ancient Merindorans believed that before the world was created there was a place called Ganindara. Ganindara was a cold and dark place void of stars and sun. Rivers flowed from mountians and formed great oceans. The waves from the oceans beat against the mountains until three giant statues were formed. A being from the heavens, Merindora, happened upon Ganidara and saw these statues. Merindora was cast from his own world and was given the power to cast one spell. Once he used that power he would soon cease to exist. Merindora was lonely from travelling throught the heavens for unknown millenia and wanted friendship. When he saw the statues he used his power to give them life. The statues came alive and [[File: | Ancient Merindorans believed that before the world was created there was a place called Ganindara.

When Merindora died they buried him in the center of the triangle where the lifeless statues once stood. The earth growled and moaned for seventy three days and soon a huge land mass was born. The gods named this Merindora. | ||
Soon the gods grew weary of Merindora and they too wanted to travel the heavens. Before they departed they wanted Merindora to be bathing in light and be lush with vegetation and creatures so their fathers soul will not be lonely. Millan went to the frozen waste land and heaved a giant glacier into the air. It burst into many shiny pieces of crystal which became the stars. He heaved a second slab into the air and it burst with light to become the sun. Ouduna traveled to the volcanoes and reached his hand inside extracting the lava. Slowly he molded the semi-molten rock into the form of creatures which would roam and master the land and oceans of Merindora. He called these creatures Kerelians. Ouduna continued to shape the lava into lesser creatures which became the animals. Rysuan crushed a mountain into ashes and sent them flying with the wind. The ashes fell on the land and oceans of Merindora and soon plants of every imaginable kind were flourishing. Satisfied they carved 3 statues with likenesses of themselves. One of ice, one of wood, one of stone. They then left Merindora to explore the heavens never to return. | Soon the gods grew weary of Merindora and they too wanted to travel the heavens.
