Below their eyes

"Li...fe... Life? Life! Life..." was whispered around the Universe within their thoughts. They could not comprehend yet they knew that sometime, somewhere it would exist. Because they knew what was inside of Everything and Nothing. It must be the tip of the piramid they thought, the smallest part based on everything else. But they weren't so powerful. It wasn't threatening. The Angel, the Death and the Dragon ruled the entire Universe.

If he wished, the Angel could add some degrees to that planet's star and evaporate them, but he just wasn't made for destruction.

If he wished, the Dragon could just move the planet a bit so it would perfectly collide with another planet and smash everything inside, but he was too busy watching the weird random new movement they made, totally unpredictable and never seen. It was just too beautiful he could not stop staring.

If he wished, the Death just by wishing could make them all go back outside the flow of time and space, but that was senseless, not logical, so why doing it?


So with this perfect conditions, life continued. Naturally, the more evolved things were the faster they kept evolving. For some energy to become some matter it took time that even for those three was not worth waiting. The matter to fuse into something else took special conditions and time. Much less time than the energy. And as the matter fused and changed less time it took for it to take the next step. Thats why life just within a couple of measurable billion of years became something more than just some auto-assembling molecules they once saw.

They just could not keep track of the changes within this living planet because they were so fast that one blink meant encountering a complete changed planet with totally new colors and form.

All the three of them decided to take a more specific form inside this planet. So they could have a better view of all the changes that were so fast and amusing that they couldn't stop paying attention. Even though they continued to exist everywhere, they focused their existence inside this planet. They took a form. They incarnated.

At the beginning, when life was just cells moving and eating each other or processing light to keep them alive, the Angel took the form of a brilliant spark of white shiny light that wandered around the planet watching every detail, every texture, every component created. How one became two totally new and different things yet they seemed the same. He just couldn't do that. The creator wasn't able to create himself. Yet this things could create themselves. Just imposible.

The Dragon became as them, because he was more in touch with the Universe itself he could easily imitate their form. More than difficulty, he prefered it because it was more real. Not just a concept made of Nothing or a pure image of a body made of Everything. His form was always stronger and more intimidating that the ones living at that time. Even for a cell he already left clear that his body was of a inmortal almost omnipotent soul. He had their kind of body yet he wasn't able to multiply either. He was always him only. Besides his interest wasn't life creation at all, it was the movement, the changes, this creatures were able not only to change their structure but the structure of their surroundings. They created balance and chaos at the same time. With their own will, their own movement. So he lived among them. Watching and learning.

The Death was an untouchable shadow moving around the surfaces. A black spot moving around and stopping for a while just to watch with a grim curiosity how a living being consumed another. How one life lost his soul after a small time passed and it just ceased to exist, with no real reason but the flow of time. And the best of all, he didn't have to do anything for this to happen. It was like a movie of what he was made to do, he could see what he must usually do in front of his eyes yet he wasn't doing it. Unreal and amusing.


Time, slowed by smaller definitions and capabilities, passed slower making them able to watch and enjoy more carefully this last step of change taking even more steps forward at an unimaginable speed.

They shared time with this living world, and this representations of something greater became more and more attached to this living planet. Never bored. Living, you may, say among them, learning.

Time slowed down from billions to millions, from millions to thousands, and so on...

Within this time, events were many. But inside all this events there were some that were, at my point of view, the most relevant. That would explain the changes and nature of these three souls.

When the three souls incarnated they agreed without words in one thing. They came to watch. No decision shall be made by them. They should not interfere.

But the attachment had consequences. The limits, the rules of this living planets became part of their body and soul. They were made from themselves but they weren't themselves either.

This existing and changing rules in this living planet were the base of what became a complex and ever changing game. And what's a game with no players? What's a player that does not play? An observer.

What made this three powerful observers become players? Well, that was right after the end of the thought: "I see and know this is like this, but what happens if I...".

Yes. Existence confirmation. The ultimate goal of every conscious being. They knew. They knew their own existence. But now, they had the chance to confirm it. And, slowly, the shadow of their hands started covering the surface of the planet.
