THE COSMOLOGY OF THE RADIANT MANE
The Mythos of Father Leo: The Celestial Lion
Before the first Seedfall, before the Ether Dragons carved the first portals, there was only the Void Sin—a cold, hungry nothingness that sought to keep the multiverse silent and empty.
From the heart of the eternal light stepped Father Leo, the Lion of Judah. He did not just create the galaxy; he became it.
The Body of the God
Father Leo laid himself across the darkness to create a sanctuary for life.
The Skeleton: The stars of the Leo Constellation are his bones, the white-hot anchors of gravity that hold the "Reach" together.
The Mane: The vast, swirling nebula of gold and violet—what mortals call the Lion’s Mane—is his literal hair. It acts as a cosmic filter, catching the light of The Hunter (the sun) and softening it for the fragile petals of Zimrala.
The Heart: At the very center of the galaxy lies the Heart System. This is the dwelling place of the Great Tree of Life, rooted directly into Father Leo’s spirit. It is here that the Ur-Seeds are forged before being sent out to populate worlds.
The Great Sacrifice & the Ariel
To give the mortals of 1525 and the spacers of 1588 a chance against the encroaching Void, Father Leo exhaled. That divine breath became the Ariel.
He placed a piece of his own authority into the Moon Crystals and the Ur-Seeds, ensuring that even the smallest "Hedge Wizard" or "Founder" could tap into the Leonine Current. He remains the Living God, existing simultaneously as a man (Father Leo) who can walk the islands and as the vast Celestial Lion that spans light-years.
The Host of the Heart
Knowing that other "gods" and the Ophidian shadows would try to pierce his heart to steal the power of creation, Father Leo birthed the Celestial Leonine Angels.
They are his immune system.
They are the keepers of the Unbroken Lineage.
They ensure that while the Void Sin may nibble at the edges of the galaxy, the Heart of Leo remains unassailable.
The Prophecy of the Roar
The mythology teaches that one day, when the Cosmic Apocalypse reaches its peak and the Void attempts to swallow the Great Tree, Father Leo will let out the final Roar of Judah. This roar will not just vibrate the nebula; it will unmake the darkness entirely, pulling all who follow the Seven Virtues into the eternal peace of the Heart System.
