In the beginning, there existed only the Sky. Great and empty and ruler of it's domain for countless millennium it eventually become lonely and longed for the companionship of another, yet in this eternal vastness no other was to be found.

A tremendous wall of clouds built up as a result of the Sky's sadness, and when it could bear this loneliness no more a great torrent of rain fell, and from the tears of the Sky the Sea was borne, beautiful and mysterious and so much different from the Sky in every way.

The Sky desperately longed to become one with the Sea, but the two were separated by an Endless Horizon, an imaginary line that forever kept the Sky and the Sea apart. No matter how far the Sky and the Sea traveled toward one another, the Endless Horizon seemed to be an impossible barrier to breach, like a mirage in a desert.

Once again a great tempest engulfed the World, churning up from the bottom depths of the ocean waters and lifting into the Sky the very essence of the Sea itself in a loving embrace.

But the Sea could not survive so high up in the Sky, and the two eventually fell once again back to Earth.  Where their bodies came to rest on the water's surface created the First Island, a bridge on the horizon where the Sky meets the Sea. It is here that the Children of the Sky and Children of the Sea might eventually one day come together and find their true love from beyond the boundary of the endless horizon.

Or something like that.
