In The Beginning
The God of the
Burning Orb,
Eloweigh and his
wife Phay of the
Night Glow ruled
over the empty
heavens.
Eloweigh
Phay
Ba’het
Out of Boredom Eloweigh and Phay began to stamp their heavy feet and dance, stirring up a great chaos of dust and ice. Out of this chaos a world was formed. They saw that it was beautiful and called it Ba’het.
Even with their swirling world, they felt
incomplete and lonely so they pulled a great boulder from Ba’het. They wrapped their mighty trunks around and around it. When the boulder
cracked a beautiful she-phant emerged. She had long, beautiful brown fur and eyes that
shone like crystals. Eloweigh and Phay wept at her beauty and their tears became the stars.
They called her Astrid.
A Daughter
Astrid made many dolls and played with them everyday on Ba’het. She filled their world with majestic mountains, tall trees, sparkling rivers, and deep oceans. She made Ba’het a paradise
for her playthings.
Paradise
Astrid loved her dolls so very much and Eloweigh, wanting to please his lovely daughter, breathed
life from his great trunk into all of the dolls.
They became all of the creatures that roamed Ba’het.
For the ones who shared the likeness of the Gods, Phay sang the song of culture into their ears.
They became the race of the great Mamai.
The Mamai lived in the paradise Astrid had made
for them and were the ruler of all creatures. They
multiplied and soon all of Ba’het was populated with this Majestic culture, but Astrid could not keep up with the actions of all.
