Rise of The Element This Universe began in pain; an endless soup of Chaos Explosion after explosion, It screamed for its salvation. One by one, The Elements were forged, and into this world of fire and darkness, I was born. Entropy, Chaos as she is fondly called, rules our Universe, spreading her roots of disorder. Chaos gave rise to Order, in a ploy to create even more Chaos. Through galaxies and supernovae, matter condensed into stars. The Elements scattered throughout, scrambling to escape the great Void. To escape from Chaos, I ran and hid.
For aeons, I watched. As the smouldering Earth simmered down, As the confusion that reigned died, As the rivers of time changed from lava to water, As the red skies, painted black, with ash and smoke Gave way to clouds and fervent storms and blue was the new trope, As the Elements fought, each trying to establish dominion, I waited. They say heroes have humble beginnings. 0.01% of Earth's crust. How humbler could I be? Battles are won through tact, not might. I mobilised my strengths, alliances made with chemical bonds. As the rains torrented above, the Elements washed into the primordial soup. To survive, they had no choice. One by one, they entered my folds. That was the rise of the Organic Kingdom. A new age heralded across the planet, The elements had a new ruler, one very stable. I was special, I formed links with myself, the power of catenation. I made long-chained compounds, Chaos became my ladder A weapon so unique, I became the envy of every Element! With evolution, came a new power: Self-replication. RNA and DNA, the harbingers of Life.
