Dust

"Dust" is the name commonly given to the elusive entity that created the Twelve gods, in reference to one of the chapters from The Dances of the Mindful One.

Very little is known about Dust, as it rarely interacts with anything but the Twelve themselves, and the Twelve refuse to speak of Dust to anyone but each other. Most information about Dust is either extrapolated from the creation of each of the Twelve or merely speculation.
