---(🌕)---

Once there were two Almighty beings

Y'ncha i'da and E'njin i'da

Our generous providers

Faithful protectors, and at many times merciful punishers

When the harvest is aplenty and the animals are well

We give thanks to great Y'ncha i'da

When our mothers and fathers peacefully age together

We give thanks to glorious E'njin i'da

When our brothers and sisters return safely from a bountiful hunt

Praise be to our ever gallant Gods.


But then one day

A great plague descended on our lands

An unHoly war had begun

Our mothers and fathers were stricken with the illness

Our elders, unsettled, began plotting and thinking

Our brothers and sisters were sent farther away

While we slept fitfully in our homes

Y'ncha i'da bore down on their backs and struck them down

E'njin i'da destroyed our temples and chased us out of our homes

The war raged on without respite or reason.


What had they done wrong?

What could we do to right the wrong?

We prayed for the kindness of Y'ncha i'da and the mercy of E'njin i'da

But while they spared us

We did not know what ruin it would bring

After the unHoly war

Our elders will boast of how our once fearless God had deserted battle

How the other was shamefully toppled from grace

We, the children, who did not understand

Could only follow the world into eternal ruin.
