The Birth of Balance
In the early days of the Divine Realm, after King Nhavah had manifested the Spirits of Creation and established the cosmic order, he turned his attention to a fundamental truth: where there is life, there must also be death. Not as an ending, but as a transition—a sacred passage from one state of existence to another.
Aurora Rimaea, the Spirit of Life, had already been created. She was a pure, cosmic, angel-like sylph dryad whose purpose was to give life to planets and create the abundance of living beings across the universe. But the King recognized that life alone was incomplete. There needed to be a counterbalance, a force of equal importance to ensure the natural cycle remained unbroken.
And so, King Nhavah manifested one more Ancient Spirit.
With his vine-like palms held out, a black-and-white light shone atop them, forming into what looked like a vulture with panda-like patterns. The creature had black spots that resembled a skull covering where its eyes should be—though it possessed no visible eyes, it could see through that black patch with perfect clarity.
─────⊰ The Naming and Purpose
The King looked upon this new spirit and spoke:
"Your name is now Morhv. You shall be the Spirit of Death, the one who protects the deceased, and also Rimaea's rivaling partner."
Morhv bowed before the King, his voice emerging for the first time—a beautiful, sweet tone like a cello being played elegantly. "Thank you, my King," he said, and then leaped from the King's palms down to the ground where he greeted the rest of his companions.
─────⊰ Partners in the Cycle
When Morhv met Aurora Rimaea for the first time, there was an immediate understanding between them. They were not enemies, despite being "rivals" in the cosmic sense. Rather, they were two halves of the same eternal truth: life and death, creation and transition, beginning and ending. You could say that Morhv and Rimaea are couples, (parents).
They became long-lasting friends, bound together not by opposition but by complementary purpose. Rimaea gives life to worlds; Morhv protects those lives when their time comes to an end. Together, they keep each other's sanity intact, reminding one another that both life and death are sacred, necessary, and beautiful in their own ways.
Morhv's panda-like patterns—black and white, perfectly balanced—symbolize this duality. They are almost like the Yin and Yang, representing the eternal dance between creation and conclusion, light and shadow, presence and absence.
─────⊰ The Protector of Souls
Morhv is the personification of death itself, but not in the way mortals fear. He is not a reaper who takes life cruelly or prematurely. Instead, he is a guardian, a protector, a gentle guide who appears when beings from different worlds—whether multiversal or not—pass away or their time is up.
