How to write a "Hello World" for N64 purely from pure scratch?

As an experiment I want to code a "Hello World" program for N64 using only assembly code, and using no headers, tools, helper files, etc.

I just want to write the assembly code bare bones from absolute scratch, assemble it, and have it run through a demanding emulator that can show me the output.

I can't find enough info on how to send the correct data to the RSP for video output though. Can anyone offer me a handshand here? Not on helping me program, but on infowith information regarding N64's RSP and how to program it to display text, etc.
