Nice layout and sounds like an interesting amalgam as the driving force behind the creation myth.
This entry is based on the creation myth of the world I'm currently building (and mapping!). It is heavily influenced by both the Tower of Babel, and Yggdrasil (the Tree of Life). The final map will consist of an old book detailing the creation myth, the birth of the gods and the role of the tower of heaven, there will be a very ancient scroll below that with a map of the Tower, annotated in an ancient language, and there will be a parchment with notes being written by a 19th century historian with his beliefs of what the scroll is representing and his translations.
Starting off with just a sketch of the whole thing:

Darn. looks like this is goin to be some tough competition
I might still be in over my head here, I'm figuring this all out as I go, with help from many many different tutorials I might still muck it all up

Nice story, I mean it. I have one criticism regarding the fonts you use: Why are you using the fraktur long s? It's the only letter you are using fraktur for.
Thanks!
The long s is actually just a baskerville f with the bar removed, I don't have any fraktur fonts installed But as for the usage, English used the long s as a standard part of their printed material. I used this book from google books as a reference as to what a 17th century book looks like. The c with a hook confused me a bit at first, since I couldn't find anything that really told me anything about it, so I only used it for the c's that precede a t. I'm not really sure what the actual rules for the c with a hook were.
