The Creation Story of the Decreator

A tale passed down through the ranks of the Cult of the Unwritten Book, the story was about a being formed by the shadows of the First Light that would one day summon their deity to bring about the end of existence. 

The Patterson family - the keepers of the Unwritten Book, which took the form of their son - taught Elliot the words of the legend, which they would all recite before he blew out the candles on his birthday cake each year. 

In the beginning, there was the light.

And the light created a shadow.

And the shadow was good.
