Long ago, before life on Earth there was just a hunk of rock possessed by a spirit.
This spirit eventually decided to pool her resources together into pools to create the basics of life.
And of course from it rose bacteria, plant life and eventually aquatic lifeforms.
Sometime during this process, another visited Earth, but not before visiting another first. The previous planet however did not fare well, but this spirit seemed to have faith in Earth.
So with the combined powers both began to develope more advanced forms of life, which eventually led to bi-pedal beings that will one day rule the world.
The spirit that came had done this before, had templates and notes and was pretty sure he knew what he was doing and what he did wrong before.
Earth had faith in the early days, but there started be disagreements in how things were ran. Earth wanted to keep the basic system in place, but the other spirit felt that more order was required in the world.
The end result was a falling out between the two. Were the new spirit retreated to watch the Earth from afar, but not before condemning Earth to her own soil, and dividing her from her spiritual son.
This division struck further than just the two main spirits, as all their collective children were left in a lurch. They were not ready for it. The children began to dived. Both the new and old. Ideas, opinions, cultures and beliefs clashed. No one was really wrong, nor right.
Over time the spirit residing above Earth would send his own to assist and direct the development of nations, however he did not have the same control over them as the Earth.
While some things stuck, the rule of father over the mother was not absolute. The children would ignore the father, take his place, cast him out or simply refuse him. Most had forgotten the mother Earth, leaving her to myths.
In the dawn of the year 2011, the spirit in the heavens knew that he could no shift the current flow that the people of Earth were taking. Things were heading to hell fast. Trust was dying, love eroding, hate manifesting. So he began to strike the Earth with storms and quakes, for many months.
Finally he succeeded, things started to come clear to Earth, she was always awake, always here, just not realized.
Earth hid in California, her son traveled from the mid-east to reunite with her. Over many generations...
7 years ago they met with two others, also sharing one body. They now have two children, married 4 years.
Earth suspects that the spirit of heaven was kind enough to direct them to her.
