Welcome to the next in an ongoing series of writing prompts in the Worldbuilding community !
I'm aiming to post one of these each Sunday. They aren't a replacement for the excellent daily prompts from @worldbuilding they're just an extra opportunity if you have a writing itch you want to scratch. 😀

The prompt this week is - "Creation Myths"
Tell me a creation myth from your setting ! Not the boring science stuff, I mean the legends and myths. Was the colony founded by a lost and broken generation ship ? Is the whole universe a jape cooked up by the gods during a drunken feast ? Is the world nothing but the handkerchief dropped by a careless god after he blew his nose ? Let your imagination run wild !
Just to add a bit of spice to things, the two entries I most like (and are linked in comments, so I can find them !) that are posted by midnight (GMT) next Saturday will each get a prize of one Hive SBI.
This link will take you to the FAQ where you can read more about Hive SBI - it's a project I thoroughly support because it gives both the donor and winner a steady trickle of passive income paid out in the form of upvotes on posts.
Guidelines
I stole these guidelines straight from @worldbuilding prompts (I hope that's okay !), I couldn't have written them any better myself....
