According to the Lore Book "[[Lore:Unveiling|Unveiling]]", in the state before time and the universe began, the [[Light]] and [[Darkness]] engaged each other in a "game", analogous to a massively more complex version of the "Game of Life" invented by Earth mathematician John Conway; in the Book, this game is described allegorically as being played using flowers in a garden. This game would always end in one outcome: a self-perpetuating pattern which subsumed all others in the game. While this pleased the Darkness, the Light became "vexed" by this result. | According to the Lore Book "[[Lore:Unveiling|Unveiling]]", in the state before time and the universe began, the [[Light]] and [[Darkness]] engaged each other in a "game", analogous to a massively more complex version of the "Game of Life" invented by Earth mathematician John Conway; in the Book, this game is described allegorically as being played using flowers in a garden.
