on womens' power

"for, as a woman shall sow, so shall she reap,

not as she wishes or would order that seed,

but as the sun and rain see fit, or as the water

and nourishment! she may bring unto her crops

with her own hands.

Unto each generation shall the tales be passed,

of how order and chaos once served, and how tools

enhanced that service, and how in the end, order and chaos

grew to such might as threaten the heavens, and were cast down.

and, in the fullness of time, it shall come that the children

of the angels will fail to heed those words, and come to

believe that as one sows, so shall one reap, forgetting that

once it was not thus.

yet neither order nor chaos shall be vanquished, but each shall

sleep unto the generations, gathering power until, near the

end of time, each shall awaken."
