ECHO OF PARADISE:
THE LEGEND OF LOVE
AND EXILE
by Lutova Viktoria
Eve, in her love for the Lord God, desired to become Him when He entered into her. Because of this, God's soul was shattered, and He cast Eve out of paradise along with Adam, who could not protect her.
God loved Eve above all as His creation, for He had given her a part of Himself, created from Adam's rib, who had been made in His image. For Eve, part of God became paradise, while another part became hell. Adam sought her eternity and fought for her with God, while Eve fought for the chance to become God, because she loved Him so deeply that she wished to possess all of His being and be with Him.
As a human, Eve forgot her husband and all that had bound them together. But God continued to love Eve and to hate her, and thus the souls of Eve and Adam remembered paradise and longed to return home, to simply love each other again. Yet, they were tormented by the dark part of God's soul, and only a tiny spark of light remained burning in their hearts.

Prologue
In the beginning, there was light—and that light was God. He was everything: origin and end, breath and stillness, fire and water. Within Him, there was no division, no uncertainty, no pain. All was one, and this unity was called Love.
Yet, in being everything, God felt alone. In His perfection, there arose a longing—for something to reflect Him, to witness Him. And so, He created man. Adam came forth from the dust, shaped and given breath. He bore God's likeness, but not His essence. He was pure, but empty—like a vessel awaiting its meaning.
God looked upon Adam and said, “It is not good for man to be alone.” So He took a part of Adam—his rib, his heart, his essence—and formed Eve. But Eve was unlike Adam. She was not merely shaped; into her, God breathed something more—something of Himself. She carried His breath, His light and His shadow, His love and His yearning for the infinite.
When Eve opened her eyes, the world shifted. God beheld her with reverence; Adam, with wonder. She was beauty and completeness, yet in her gaze there stirred a spark even God had not foreseen. She was made for love, but her love carried hunger—a desire to know, to become, to transcend.
Paradise was still, but within Eve was a storm. She loved God not with the reverence of a creature, but with the longing of a soul reaching toward its source. Her love was not worship—it was a striving for unity, a desire to be not near Him, but one with Him. To be Him.
