Khaos

Khaos
The fae view Khaos as a semi-sentient force that balances and opposes Dôn. The more frequent terrestrial spelling of the word is Chaos. The Spring Court tell a story that when Dôn ripped herself into formation, there formed an abyss just outside of Her or surrounding her and this is Khaos. Khaos is often designated as a neuter or masculine and described as Dôn's lover, brother, and advesary. All forms of duality and complementary opposite have an origin in the interplay of Dôn and Khaos. The Fae claim that the humanist conception of yin-yang has its origin in Khaos and Dôn.

Most fae and their servants view Khaos as an extremely negative, nhilhistic and apocalyptic force that seeks to devour or destroy Don and creation. The Seely believe that the Unseely were corrupted by Khaos and driven to destructive and self-destructive impulses because of it. The primordials, unlike the celestrials, were formed of both Khaos and Dôn, causing them to be chaotic, savage, and nearly mindless. Because they were a threat to creation, Don formed the Celestials who in turn created the fae using the gitfts given to them by Don during the Cad Goddeu. But the primordials corrupted half of the fae, making them into their Unseely slaves. The war itself created the first underworlds and then Dôn intervened, creating the Wheel and the Irminsul and establishing the Mythic Age. However, Annwn was a poort prison and emanations from the fallen primordials continued to reach Terra where they infected humans and others, bringing about the events that started the Age of Man.
