Alshshams and Alqamar

Before all of the gods of the animals had been created, there was a single entity, Alnnihaya. Alnnihaya had lived far longer than anyone could comprehend and had grown lonely in their time alone, so with their mighty power Alnnihaya toke nothing and made into something. This something was the universe. While they enjoyed all of the planets that they had created, Alnnihaya found one in particular to their interest. This planet was Earth. But as much as they enjoyed simply looking at their little planet, they wished for companionship and thus created the first two gods. The Alshshams and the Alqamar, they were each represented with a jackal with Alshshams being a side striped jackal and Alqamar a black backed jackal. The two kept Alnnihaya company, but soon they grew tired of simply talking and asked Alnnihaya to make more companions.

Alnnihaya then created, with the help of Alshshams and Alqamar, all the other creatures' gods from the bugs to the birds to the elephants to the whales. But aside from companionship the gods had no other duties, so Alnnihaya decided to give them each a little bit of their power so that they could make their own companions. These companions were not able to be gods because they did not come from Alnnihaya, however they were able to roam the Earth.

Soon conflicts arose as the gods' creations fought for food, they might have wiped each other out if it hadn't been decided that some would eat plants while others meat. In the case of Alshshams and Alqamar, both. At first everything was swell, the gods would meet together in counsel to tell Alnnihaya of their progress and enjoy each others company. But that's when conflict arose. Some say that it was Thueban's fault -whispering ideas into the others' ears-, others claim is was Alshshaytan Alttismani -always looking for a fight- and some even claim that it was all started by Alnnihaya them self. Whatever the case may be, war broke out amongst the gods, alliances were formed and broken, enemies were made and then turned into friends. It was a time of turmoil and chaos for all, but at the end of the war the hierarchy of the animals was established and hasn't been upset yet.

The once close Alshshams and Alqamar had forever been torn apart as Alshshams had sided with Aldhdhib and Alqamar with Zabi. Sensing the divide between their gods, the black backed and side striped turned against each other. But it made no sense to just kill each other off so they split apart with black backed taking to the open savannah and side striped moving into the dense forest. The two sides have respected the boundaries for millions of years with anyone foolish enough to try and cross from one side to the other having been immediately exiled or worse... But what happens when a disaster so great occurs, that the two sides are forced together once again?
