' The creation myth recounted in the prologue to volume 1, episode 1 clearly states that the Grimm arose after the appearance of man. No cause is stated other than it was "an inevitable darkness" which can be taken as referring to their being either created, vivified or at least attracted by the negative emotions to which humans are sadly prone. I got the opposite vibe. It sounded to me that the 'darkness' or whatever existed before man, hence the 'unforgiving world'. That said, perhaps the negative emotions caused the darkness to assume the forms of the creatures of grim.
