The instruments had begun to develop personalities. This would not have worried the humans much even if they had known, for they had personalities from birth. They would not realize the catastrophic effect it would have on the world.

The different instruments developed different personalities depending on their powers. The viola, for instance, developed a shy personality that hid latent rage, which would be unleashed upon the world if it had good reason. The cello developed a bold personality, while the double bass had a personality that varied a lot.

These personalities are mostly innocuous. However, the violin’s personality would lead to many terrible problems in the future. The violin began to crave power, its hunger growing with every single note it played in every single song of creation. It longed for the day when it could prove itself superior to the others and obtain a similar role.

These personalities certainly impacted the world, through the music of creation. The violin jumped for a chance to take control of the music. The viola began to play quieter, with short moments when it would play loudly. The cello began to play very loudly, more so than it was instructed to. The double bass was a mix of the cello and the viola, switching between playing quietly and playing at a deafening volume.

This new change in the music brought about the creation of the annoyances of the world. It created mosquitoes, which fed off of the life of others. It created disease, which ended the relative peace which had existed before. It created evil and authority, two powers that, sadly, seemed to go hand in hand. Authority had the potential to lead to prosperity and did so in some cases. In others, however, it was influenced by evil and injured many for the enjoyment of the few.

This is not where the problems end, sadly. The violin eventually decided to compose music in which violins had a dominant role, which was distributed to the unsuspecting public. The other instruments did not see much fault with this. They drew the line, however, when the violin attempted to emphasize its power by creating two violin parts in its music.
