Qwerk, the god of stories, was birthed at the beginning of everything when our lord, Lord Joel, woke up to the universe and wished for a burek to eat. And once he was created and forgotten by the Lord, he roamed great and far to share his tells of wonder, or rather disgust and horror, to little children and grown adults alike.
