"In the beginning everyone was one, each fitting in perfect and harmonious unity. So remarkably as one, in fact, that upon inspection, it was indiscernable as to if they were all separate beings forming one or if they were one being altogether.
Time passed and things began to change. Disagreements arose and arguments took shape. These differences between them began to chafe and tear at the being as a whole. What was once a splendidly crafted shape of one was now pulling in various directions, ripping and tearing them apart from the core. This new hurt and pain of being torn in multiple directions transfomed them into a grotesquely hideous creature whose past unification was now but a distant memory. What once was one, whole and complete, was now separate conflicting beings all born of the chaos within."
Concept for the art is mostly taken from something in my dream last night and the idea behind the story is partially from the dream and partially from various other musings I've had recently.
Please do not use or reproduce the artwork or story without permission.
Excellent work! I love the sense of conflict you get just looking at it without reading your description. The concept is one I haven't seen before, and I doubt someone could do much better than this if they were to try
You have some deep and creative dreams and thoughts, don't you?

Memories... are nothing. They fade, until they vanish. Still... why do we want to have memories. Memories of a beloved person, memories of beautiful things. Beautiful, but awful at the same time. Memories are just there, to hold on something... - Nero
Thank you! And while I like to think of myself as "deep", I really don't have much control over where my dreams go. They just happen.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

As I was walking down the stairs
I saw a man who wasn't there
I saw the man again today
I wish, I wish, he'd go away
