The Story of Beginning
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the beginning there was nothing. A god came across the nothingness and
|
||
|
laid down for they were tired. The body of the god started to be consumed
|
||
|
into the nothingness and they could not longer rise up again. The body of
|
||
|
this god, known as Lomoti Aran which means 'source of earth', became the
|
||
|
land that we live on.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A second god came across the body and was horrified to see what had
|
||
|
happened. They swore to unmake this emptiness, but Lomoti Aran spoke to
|
||
|
them and said:
|
||
|
> no-lay-forsake "Do not forsake what is left of me"
|
||
|
> no-lay-strong "This emptiness is stronger than either of us"
