Duality
In the new beginning, there was void filled with darkness. From the void emerged the first sparkle of light, a primordial force, known as The Architect. He created many worlds, each universe for itself, and filled them with stars, which formed galaxies. At first, his power was limited but after eons he spent on creation of worlds his power slowly became greater and greater. One day his power started to grow to such proportions, we could even call it limitless.
That wasn't enough for him, he always wanted more. Being almighty wasn't enough, he needed a real test of his power. He decided to create a star so bright, which will shine stronger than all the stars he created combined. During that process something went wrong and instead of making the brightest star in the universe, he created celestial being, known as Star Maker.
After that incident, The Architect lost all his power which was replaced by newly acquired dark power of the void. The power of light he once had was transferred to Star Maker. From the moment he was born, Star Maker was emotionally attached to The Architect and considered him as father. Unlike him, The Architect despised Star Maker because he was the reason he lost his power.
Ever since then, The Architect and Star Maker are in eternal struggle. Star Maker seeking for love and affection of his father, The Architect wanting to annihilate Star Maker thinking that if he kills him he will get his power back. Reason why that never happened lies in fact light power is a lot stronger than dark power that The Architect now possesses. Like every unwanted child, Star Maker came to conclusion that the reason why he is being rejected by his father lies in him.
Feeling shame because of his self imposed inadequacy, he started to flee from The Architect. Their fights always ended in the same way, The Architect trying to annihilate Star Maker who was fleeing from him. Every time dark energy came in contact with Star Maker, new stars and planets appeared. The Architect used his dark power in many ways, creating pockets of dark matter in the universe, trying to ensnare Star Maker. But that never happened, it just led to creation of new worlds.
After some time, Star Maker came to idea to try to hide on some of the worlds his power created. First he transformed those worlds to his liking, made them special gave them life. Star Maker populated those worlds with lower, mortal beings. Some of those beings evolved and formed civilizations. He helped in many ways, hoping that one day he'll please his father by showing him examples of perfection his worlds achieved.
Every being that he ever created was pure from birth, because force of light created it. With progression of time every being become corrupted with darkness that came from the void. Some less, some more but there wasn't mortal being unaffected by the power of the void. Void shaped perfectly good beings into more evil ones. Such turn of events never allowed Star Maker to create a perfect world, controlled by perfect civilization.
In his many attempts to stop that and try to reverse it, he disguised himself in many different forms. Some of them were those of prophets, some of natural events that shaped the worlds and civilizations on them. One of those forms included vision of dark being that mimicked his father, The Architect. He thought that if he show mortal beings end result of their conversion from light to dark, he could affect them in a way which could reserve the whole process and in the end, make his father proud. In one of his appearances he made as a prophet, he begged The Architect to forgive mortal beings, to relieve them of their fate, to lift the dark curse that has been cast upon them.
That never happened. Eternal struggle continues til eternity, between good-hearted being made of pure light, filled with love and affection, and force of void, filled with darkness, unable to love or care. Conflict of those two prime forces shaped the universe. What The Architect and Star Maker never realised is that they were complementary forces and that the only thing that kept the universe in one part was the delicate balance between them which never changed.
Since the time The Architect emerged from void and after he gave birth to first being which separated him from his original power, balance between the darkness of void and the primordial force of light wasn't short of perfect. That was the only reason why universe existed. But time, constant that existed even before universe was created and before the first sparkle, has been witness that nothing changed.
Balance was always there, since the beginning of time and never changed a bit. Space took different form, from endless void transformed into universe because of the original split of forces. And every further separation of true prime forces will led to new universe creation but nothing will change. Balance between forces will stay constant, their eternal struggle will stay constant as well, time was always constant.
