You see, this Promethius and Pandora didn’t find me by accident. I Named the event. I know I am not supposed to use the power of Naming for such purposes, and if all this point of view relinquished its hold on reality, voluntarily, we Namers are sworn to abide and must stand by while all, even ourselves, pass away. I cry foul at the notion, because there are rule breakers. So why should I not use my power to counter their misbehavior? Why should the righteous have their hands tied while the wicked take advantage of our scruples? But that argument would not win over any of the members of the Council. If I were confronted at the Great Council to answer for my behavior, of course I would have no defense. But there is little chance of that happening now. All the other Lesser Namers sleep or have passed from this world forever. No council may be called, even though the Earth’s tilt may approach the end of one and the beginning of another epoch. Even Borea, The Midnight Moose as he is known, first among us, the last chief of the Council, The Namer, perhaps waiting for the restoration of the world, and the banishment of the Great Imbalance, slumbers.
So, with all the Council of Namers asleep, but for I, Tether, who then could oppose my calling into being a new Starseed?
But where was I? Oh yes, the beginning. I think for our purposes, the beginningest beginning I should permit myself would be the Cretaceous period many eons before our story’s man and woman, and their very special offspring. Not that I would ordinarily choose such a name, ‘Cretaceous’ or even such a concept, for it is a truncated thing at best. Trying to understand the emergent phenomena of our particular Flower People our Starseeds, from theoretical, hypothetical, atomic Cretaceous beginnings might give us a context, but does it explain what happened?
Regardless, since I am trying to make this understandable to humans, as often as possible, I’ll try and use human ideas. And besides that, I have learned to enjoy my musings, my associations that have come to be attached to my formation of the word ‘Cretaceous’. During the time it is meant to describe, I was young, and the world suited my enjoyment of it much more than it does now. It was at that time that I became a lesser Namer and began to meet with the Council. So you understand, The Namers are the representatives of the many forms of life, the beings comprised of the meeting of the imminent and transcendent, manifested Starseeds all, where the poetry of the demi urge is canted in replicating cells -, truly self-aware life. Each of us is a representative of our kind endowed with the powers of our purposes. Those of us who enjoy this perspective have met since the beginning, regularly on the anniversary of the precessions of the equinoxes on the eve of the first day of the so called Great Platonic Year and at lesser intervals as dictated by urgent need, as you shall perceive.
