| 1 | Upon our exile, Kingu and the the other One, divided the survivors into groups. |
| 2 | The lands were teeming with life of all kind- |
| 3 | many crowding to the warmth and away from the bleak conditions upon the Northern and Southern land. |
| 4 | Even as gods, our survival depended upon our ability to fight for food |
| 5 | when even the smallest animal would die trying to survive. |
| 6 | We cleared a camp and found safety in the volcanic rock and stone of the mountain. |
| 7 | Soon, we were feared by all animals, especially the hairy apes who kept their distance. |
| 8 | So we would not forget what we had learnt, we created glyphs with which we would write our knowledge and sign. |
| 9 | We communicated to one another comparing what we knew. |
| 10 | To stop ourselves becoming immortal savage beasts of ignorance, |
| 11 | Mama arranged that we catalogue all manner of life forms, |
| 12 | So we formed names for all types of life- the birds, the mammals, the reptiles our kin. |
| 13 | Although small in number, we embarked on great journeys |
| 14 | the length and breadth of the lands you now call Africa discovering great resources and all manner of wonder. |
| 15 | All the while our minds expanded and we developed our own ideas of civilization, |
| 16 | of law, of leadership so that we might continue to prosper. |
| 17 | As our knowledge increased, our pain seemed to ease. |
| 18 | As we came to find a way to live in harmony with the animals, our form continued to change. |
| 19 | Our hideous boils and scars continued to heal. |
| 20 | We became as Great Angels of white. |
| 21 | The greatest of all the EL-OH-IM. |
| 22 | But for AZAR, the other EL-OH-IM and DE-MAN kind, no word had come. |
