Before Aethelgard existed, the world was a silent, unshaped void of raw stone and chaotic storms. According to myth, the chief deities—the Wind Mothers and Sky Lords—sang the First Chord into the emptiness.
The Shattering: The power of this divine melody tore the flat earth apart, thrusting massive spires, jagged plateaus, and mountains high into the heavens to catch the divine breath.
The Gift of Voice: The gods breathed this music into the first Sirin, granting them wings and the ability to channel the wind's power through song. To the Sirin, music is not just entertainment; it is the literal source code of gravity, weather, and life.
