The Questionable Context - Chapter 2

Then all of the Elements came together with Time watching patiently. They attempted something that had never happened before. They balanced the liquid crystal until it created containers for Water. They made some parts of the containers easy to move in specific ways. They put hard versions of the crystals in the middle to create a frame. They coated the whole thing in dead tissues to create a barrier of skin. Skin of dirt, rivers of blood...and something else that was missing. Then the Water and the Air tried something that they had not tried before.   

They began to dance like they had danced before the rest of the worlds were created. But this time they danced in the sky, becoming heavy with negative particles creating sparks and lightning in the air that would rush down to the Earth. The Air  around the lightning created loud bursts of sound always following a strike to the Earth. She struck this new thing and lines of energy came through all of the parts of the body. Creating and sustaining off of the same energy it has been struck with. The crystals holding it within the water surrounding it.   

Movement began in this new ones face. He opened his eyes and the world was around him. All things had colors and fragrances and purpose. They all had their voices too, and they invited this one into their reality with cheers and love. With time he heard all of the voices of each animal, each salmon, each hummingbird, each green child of Mother's womb. And he was their caretaker.  

After time he realized that the work he was to perform was more than he could bear alone. He saw how the animals had adapted a replication process to extend a species. He asked the Fire, Air, Water, Earth and Time to pray with him and help him create a form of replication for this face.   

From his balance did they create the daughter of the earth. Feeling from the souls of her feet, she reflects the heart of the emotion with her beauty and grace. The one made two came to sit quietly and live harmoniously with all others in the embryo of Air.
