[1:1] For many centuries Yìnjindó̱ lived in greatest peace and harmony, [1:2] guided by the wisdom of the Council of the Tri Temples.
[1:3] The Elves of Yìnjindó̱ prospered in their shared civilization with the Beast Folk, [1:4] and there they made many great cities, [1:5] and in those cities they erected many great monuments to their peoples and their collective ancient legacy.
[1:6] Than came the day when Avmojo returned to the lands of Yìnjindó̱, [1:7] with him came a great host of Ooramerians, [1:8] who came on great fleets of cities of the heavens known as Asódos, [1:9] the great fortress cities of the skies, [1:10] that the beast folk called Pǒnjo, The Great Prisons in the Skies.
[1:11] The Ooramerians landed in the North and West of Yìnjindó̱, [1:12] and when they came to the lands they were dumbfounded it was cultivated and inhabited.
[1:13] None more was dumbfounded than Avmojo, [1:14] as he made great strides and looked upon the land, [1:15] and seeing all his sister's creations of Beast Folk, [1:16] and the Elves who came and colonized the land with their great cities and magnificent architecture.
[1:17] Soon news spread throughout the land that Avmojo had returned, [1:18] and many flocked to his gentle shadow, [1:19] bringing gifts and offerings to the returning God.
[1:20] Anjono emerged from her Cave of Gúpra'kasutna, [1:21] and she ventured towards her brother.
[1:22] At the giants feet was a grand parade of many peoples both Beast and Elf, [1:23] bringing wheeled floats filled with food and wine, [1:24] and they gave offerings to the returning Avmojo.
[1:25] Many voices sang and chanted in a choirs of hymns in many tongues both Elvish, [1:26] and the many dialects of the Beast Folk.
[1:27] That night Anjono hosted her brother Avmojo, [1:28] they had a shared feast of his return, [1:29] that many shared in the food, [1:30] and the wines flowed like rivers from the tables it was served.
[1:31] The Envoy of the Ooramerians came to the Feast of the Returned God, [1:32] and there sat Prince Romó, Son of King Mavorlós, [1:33] whose blood flows with the God King Löxémero God Slayer.
[1:34] The Envoy of the Ooramerians sat at their station, [1:35] and they spoke in hush tones within their tongue, [1:36] as their eyes look in suspicion towards the Elves, [1:37] and in disappointment to Avmojo who promised this continent to be their new home, [1:38] that they were to name Néo-Shóngrolá.
[1:39] For the better part of the feast Prince Romó seethed in anger, [1:40] and he would not partake in the food and wines offered to him.
[1:41] A young Gátomorian Wine Boy named Sherrvann, [1:42] came to Prince Romó and asked if he would like a chalice of wine.
[1:43] Prince Romó lashed out to the Wine Boy, [1:44] and thusly said, "How am thy too drink and eat? [1:45] When none offered to wash thine hands before the feast? [1:46] Thou art a savage of the lowest order! [1:47] All of thou kin art mongrels!" the Offense of Romó.
[1:48] Romó stormed out of the feast, [1:49] he was quickly followed by the Ooramerian Envoy, [1:50] who abandoned their food and drink, [1:51] that Sherrvann was in tears and he wept out of grief.
[1:52] The cheerfulness of the feast was gone, [1:53] and all spoke in soft and worried murmurs, [1:54] as a few other wine boys and girls came to comfort Sherrvann.
[1:55] Prince Romó returned to his city and fortress of Oolyriauim, [1:56] he gathered his generals, advisors, wise sages and scholars, [1:57] and the prince consulted them on how to proceed within Yìnjindó̱.
