He was a man out of the 23rd century, who had been traveling only thirty seconds or so in his time. As he arrived, he later told us, he saw from above the energy cones, those flourescing, sensual forms we all later learned to see, dance through the Southern skies of winter. Like gentle, cocooned tornados of light, they hovered over all the places on the planet where the conflicts between humans were strong. Even with our "new" eyes, we found that we felt, more than saw them, slowly spinning and bumping over the face of the earth. He told us that first and most unique vision of earth would hold an honored place in his memory.
We learned from him that our physical ability of sight had not been fully realized. We learned ways to see things in the physical world which we never before had seen or imagined. We were amazed and delighted. That was the beginning.
He stayed a hundred years, and then he left. We know now he seeded 7017 other planets in his lifetime.
His departure brought conflict. But a leader arose who was wise, war was averted, and an agreement was reached.
We all found that we could agree that what we had been given was worth more than any war. For the seeder had shown us not only how to see, but how to remember the limited sight we had once thought to be unlimited.
Knowing this, we agreed to work together. We work together still.
We're interested in new ways by which we could better retain that by which we are already blessed.
We believe that creativity is important.
