Primeval Mind

The "Primeval Mind" is supposedly the first sapient thing to ever exist.

Only the greatest and oldest of minds could possibly know anything for certain, but it is said that the Primeval Mind spontaneously occurred at the beginning of all Totality, triggering the passage of time with its occurrence.

The Primeval Mind was the embodiment of all matter, all space, and all time, across all possible realms, conglomerated into one being. Yet this form was apparently unsustainable, for the Primeval Mind tore itself into shreds at the very instant that time began. As the Primeval Mind destroyed itself, it, too, destroyed the singular, whole totality, ripping it into countless separate realms.

It is believed that all souls are descended from the Primeval Mind - that is to say, each soul is an unfathomably tiny shard of its original being. Only the oldest minds, such as Dar-Mecc, possessed any significant fragment of the Primeval Mind's soul, and at this point, even these most powerful of beings have passed. It is probably for the best, however - if all souls were to reunite like Dar-Mecc once dreamed, this simple, exotic, ever-changing and ever-evolving totality would come to a definite, and final, end.
