Time: The Day the Gods Came
"Come! Come and partake of Creation!"
Her father had been angry. It was true, she disobeyed him. But to strike her loves down like that, to tear her from her children, to trap her here... the youngest of his daughters.
Climb up to the chimney and tell the Aerian Wind to gentle blow. I fear he will tip the mountain over. But do not stick your head out at the top.
And so she had climbed, and so had she said to the Aerian Wind. But then she remembered what father once said -
If you look over from the top of the mountain, you can see the ocean in all its vastness and wonder.
She had been a little girl, could one punish her for being curious? And she had raised her head to see. And she saw nothing but the ruffling of her long red hair as it whipped all about her and disappeared even beyond the four horizons. And the Aerian Wind caught her, and carried her oh so far away. And she dragged her hair in snow till the grizzly found her and took her with him home. And in the home of the grizzly bear, with his wife and all his children, the little red-haired girl grew, and in time she was no longer a little girl, but a woman full-formed and beautiful.
And she married and was happy, and her naked little children danced and played about her feet - funny little things, neither bear nor god. And they brought much joy to their mother, and they brought much joy to their fathers. And she dwelled in a small lodge near her father's mount, and was in all ways content.
And when the old grizzly approached death, and he feared ascending to see her father once his life was ended, he called upon all the grizzlies and sent one of her children up to call her father down, that his daughter may be returned at last. And her father had come as a whirlwind to the lodge where his daughter lived expecting the little girl. But he found only what angered him, and he struck the old grizzly down and cursed them forevermore to walk on four feet, their head cast low. And he scattered her children - his grandchildren! - across the earth. And he put out the mountain fire and took her back with him to the sky, from where she constantly launched her gaze earthward just as earnestly as her children looked heavenward. And her father caused nature itself to oppress them, and so she taught them - though her father knew it not - how to protect themselves.
And one day she was offered freedom, for a Door opened where there had been none, and it bid her enter and partake in creation anew. Freedom. She had not wanted to step in, only look through - she had only been curious, you see, for she thought she could smell the salt of the sea. And her crimson hair was swallowed in, and she fell in head-first. And she arose on a bare shore, the sea stretching out before her and her endless hair spearing every horizon. She stared wide-eyed, and she raised her hands to her face and wept - cried for beauty, and cried because she knew. She knew there was no going back. And her crimson hair wrapped itself around her naked form, and she looked tearfully from the one whose name was Promus to the one who was Kap Gam, to Kikoquatl, and then finally to the one who was Mater Lei. The one with the Doors. 'Wow.' She muttered, not truly of her own will. They reminded her of her siblings. Maybe they were her siblings. Not Mater Lei though. There was something off about that one. 'Hello!' She said to Kap Gam and Mater Lei, 'I want to bring my children through the Door. How do I do it?' She did not have to pause to reaffirm who she was. She knew who she was. She was Seihdhara. She was the Bear Mother.
A little back-story about Seihdhara in her old world. She appears to have been a god or demigod of some kind. She is carried off by the wind one day and lives amongst the grizzly bears. Once grown, she frolicks with them and produces humans. When her father eventually finds her, he is furious and curses bears and humans, and imprisons Seihdhara in the sky. From there she helps her children somewhat, but is ever sad. One day Mater Lei's door appears to her, and in she goes. She asks Kap Gam how she can bring her children through the Door.
You thought you could escape Seihdhara's eagle-eyed gaze! You were mistaken!
Oh yes! A god of life is definitely a good, strong choice. Our last goddess of life did an amazing job of populating Galbar with many strange and wonderful things
