I also wrote a short story.
"Between the Hammer and the Anvil"
There is a legend of a primordial blacksmith who forged our universe and others. Sparks flew from the strikes of his hammer upon the anvil, shining so brightly that reaching the skies they turned into the stars. After billions of years, our planet emerged near one of those stars. Creatures that appeared later, started gazing at the night sky and when witnessed a falling star, believed it to be another spark from under the creator's hammer.
They began to worship him, which inevitably made ancient beings envy him fiercely. Weaving intrigues like nets, they deceitfully decided to ensnare the blacksmith who had given the birth to countless galaxies. They asked him to forge a chain so strong that would surpass any other in strength.
When the chain was nearly completed, he discovered the betrayal. In a fit of anger and rage, the blacksmith shattered the anvil with a single powerful strike, releasing the energy that had been kept inside, enduring countless strikes from its creator. It was dark energy. Realizing what he had done, he tried to chain himself, but it was too late. Thus, creation turned into destruction...
A video of the creation process can be viewed on my YouTube channel.
