A page straight from the upcoming Advanced Bestiary:
The Creation (according to the Elves)
Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit, Thuelia the Lifetree, floated in silence.
Time passed.
Three seeds grew from one of the branches and Jafnhárr, the siblings, were born.
Time passed.
Dókkálfar, Kidjálfar and Ljósálfar sat in Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit squabbling between each other as siblings do.
Time passed.
Dókkálfar grew gloomy of Kidjálfar and Ljósálfar and sought solitude in the root system, Hvergelmë, of Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit. Kidjálfar watched and just smiled.
Time passed.
Ljósálfar turned towards the green leaves, Fremgitër, of Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit and felt at ease to see the leaves slowly move gracefully in the wind. Kidjálfar watched and just smiled.
Time passed.
A sudden flash of light created a sphere around Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit. Dókkálfar felt tranquill with the sphere enfolding him. Ljósálfar grew angry since the wind could not reach the leaves of Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit. Over eons of time mountains, valleys, oceans and lakes were formed by Ljósálfar striking and tearing the sphere until she broke free and once again the wind could move the leaves of Simdlaëitr’ee Gesserit. Kidjálfar watched and just smiled.
Slowly the offspring of Ljósálfar roamed the surface of the sphere and the offspring of Dókkálfar moved around in its core. Kidjálfar watched and just smiled.
