The Shaper, in wisdom, filtered the vast energy field, giving birth to matter, light, and heat—
Substance and radiance woven from the tapestry of tension, shaped into form and fire.

Yet the cosmos remained restless, for the Quickener stirred and tugged at the woven strands,
Unraveling and renewing, pulling at the fabric until time itself unraveled and flowed—
From this eternal motion came decay and growth, loss and rebirth, a cycle unbroken.

In this endless interplay, balance was found—a sacred harmony between stillness and motion.
For without the Quickener, the cosmos would remain fixed and unmoving,
And without the Shaper, the cosmos would remain formless and chaotic.

Amidst this eternal dance, the Three Mothers watched. Their silent nod, a subtle ripple across the void, affirmed the balance of creation, endorsing the perpetual cycle of formation and transformation.

Thus, the Mothers whisper: all things contain these twin forces. To create is divine, and to stir is divine. To build is sacred, and to change is sacred.

So began the world, and so it continues.

Explanation

The Shaper transformed the formless energy into matter, light, and heat. The Quickener continuously moved and changed this energy, creating time, decay, growth, and renewal. Neither could exist without the other. If the Quickener did not exist, everything would remain still. If the Shaper did not exist, everything would remain formless. Their interaction creates balance. The teaching is simple: to create is divine, and to change is divine. To build is sacred, and to stir is sacred. The world began in this way, and it continues in this way.
