The Arbitrator momentarily brings his attention to the realm of knowledge. It was brimming with power, flowing under each rune. It was highly intelligent, and had many spectral abilities. He was impressed, and a little bit intimidated. The Truth embedded in the universe was a powerful one, alright. He felt that he should have a small portion of it. Thus, he decided to create an emissary of sorts. Then, his eyes glowed gold. Within a nondescript hall in the Realm, golden particles came into being, then collided into a single point, amassing into a single blob. This blob began to coalescence into a single organism, which appeared to be a many-armed robotic spheroid, rolling along on a single wheel. It was entirely made of gold, of course. Then, The Arbitrator's eyes glowed gold again. The gold was emulated by this spheroid's eyes, located vaguely on the top of its head. It had been embedded with high intelligence and rudimentary sapience. Thus, it would not be smarter than the maze itself, but it could act as an organizer. Of consciousness, perhaps. Of thoughts, maybe. Of knowledge, almost certainly. Thus, it would be The Librarian. A technically-immortal being with no real power, other than collecting information and composing tomes of knowledge, all autonomously.

Then, his attention was brought back to his own planet, Arby's Progenitor. From his vision, he comprehended that the planet was around 30% water. Enough for the Snakeweeds to flourish, certainly, but much of the planet remained sparse. Now that Mi'Grata's Rain of Life had dissipated into a stable water cycle, there was still not much that was remarkable about it. Certainly, it had been gifted once more with a new plant, to aid Sizzurp, but not much else. This would not do. This should be a Progenitor to his legacy. He bestowed a new species, originating deep within the tunnels and canyons that the Rain of Life have not reached yet. Rumblings shook the tunnels, as cracks formed into the ground, walls, and ceiling of each. Molten rock poured out of them, and congealed into rather ugly four-legged lumps of rock, closely resembling bears. They would be called Saxa (singular is Saxum), and they would be able to mine within the tunnels. They were dull-witted, but diligent, as they had also been bestowed with an appreciation for jewelry formed from the depths of Progenitor.

Then, he had an idea. He descended upon Sizzurp, and saw the Screws. He looked again, and saw the Screws. Then, what was unexpected to us, but inevitable to him, happened. He bestowed the Screws with 1 act of Sapience, and 1 of Intelligence. They would not be simple beasts. Rather, as Sizzurp and Arby's Progenitor collided twice every year, there would be a great cultural exchange between the briefly-spacefaring Screws, and the sealocked Snakeweeds and the landlocked Saxa. Then, feeling pity for the Screws, who had to deal with a possibly-insane god, he gave them a toy, which came in the form of Aurigni, plant-like creatures that floated throughout Sizzurp. These Aurigni were normally dormant in seed form, but when touched, they would bloom explosively into a burst of color, then go through a rapid growth cycle, where the bio-luminescent stems and leaves would vary wildly in color. They would then spread their seeds and die, the colors fading away.
