| − | '''Fidi's Kosmologi''' <br/>
| |
| − | "Three generations ago, Photos was First among Equals in a maritime alliance, the Photoan League. Though they strove at times with powers from the mainland, they were wealthy and strong. Then one day a star appeared in the sky. Some astrologers said it was a comet. But that something was wrong-it had no tail. And this because it approached the Kosmos directly and would soon destroy it. The star grew larger and larger until it was visible by day. <br/>

| − | In the very moment that the comet arrived, enveloping the sky in orange fire, the earth shook. It seemed to tilt, and the sky turned black. Buildings tumbled, great waves moved in the sea. Many died in the tumult. But when the horrific movement ceased the world was still. The comet had passed and the world had survived. <br/>

| − | But something had changed. The stars were different. And ships discovered that while some islands and headlands outside the Circle of islands had disappeared, new ones had appeared in their stead. The world beyond the League had changed its geography. <br/>

| |
| − | Then, the Age of Monsters began. Harpies flapped in the skies, kraken waded up from the depths to destroy cities. The dead walked, beasts grew monstrous in size. Cults appeared worshiping Typhon, to whom they attributed these manifestations. In Photos a tyrant appeared who imposed martial law to preserve what was left of the Photoan civilization, withdrawing from the outer islands.<br/>

| |
| − | We believe that all these wonders and terrors were the Punishments of Typhon. Typhon was angry that men had forgotten to worship him, so he visited the world with many frights. But he has grown weary of killing. The Age of Monsters has passed. Creatures such as this great insect have become rare. Perhaps this one is old. The last of its kind. Typhon watches the world now in peace, asking to be invited and worshipped as he once was. He is only another god, does he not deserve temples to be made to him?"<br/>
