Before the beginning of time as we know it, four perfect, heavenly goddesses fell from the Father Universe and were birthed from Mother Time. Their names were Zena, Coleistoe, Gabrielia, and Faroary. They travel through the Chaos that was their far-reaching expanse of a home, Space as it was called, with no purpose in life or landmark to guide them. During their wanderings, they fell to the spot in Space where they created their Daughter Earth. 

Zena with her strong, flaming ambition pulled meteor rocks together to form the stone that was the surface of Earth. To her Daughter she gifted her molten heart of passion to create gravity and magnet forces. Gabrielia, with her soul full of wisdom and knowledge created the laws of the land and sky for every creature to abide by. With this pure strength of mind the sky was created, a window of heaven that made it possible for her Daughter to be protected from the space surrounding her that was bleak and filled with Chaos. Faroary, with her rich and purest of hearts, developed the people, animals, and all the fauna to rule and uphold the laws set to maintain the simple balance of Earth. And lastly, Coleistoe, with her loving, knowing eyes of the future, gave the residents of her Daughter planet vegetation and the means to protect themselves from the chaotic storms of the space that breached the protection of the sky. 

With their powers almost completely exhausted, the four heavenly goddesses enclosed each of their powers into a separate, mystical Orb. The goddesses’ descendants looked after the Orbs, and each was used to help the magical people living off and protecting Daughter Earth. With each of the Orbs power in tow, the Land of Serene lived in peace and flourished for a great many years . . .
