=========
THE STORM CAME WITHOUT WARNING NOR CONCERN. IT QUICKLY CLOAKED ALL OF GAIA IN
A LARGE INPENETRATABLE DARKNESS. AND FROM THE STORM CAME AN UTTERANCE, AND THAT
UTTERANCE WAS LIGHTNING, AND FROM THE LIGHTNING CAME A BELLOW, AND THAT BELLOW
WAS THUNDER. THE LIGHTNING STRUCK GAIA'S SURFACE AT THE HIGHEST POINT AND CAUSED
IT TO SPLIT, AND WHAT EMERGED WAS A HOLY NECTAR FLOWING ACROSS THE GREAT EXPANSE
OF THE EARTH, INFUSING EVERYTHING IT TOUCHED WITH ENERGY AND LIFE.

AND SO FROM THE GROUND WAS BORN THE CREATURES OF THE WORLD, AND FOR ALL OF
HISTORY THEY UNDERSTOOD AND RESPECTED THE POWER OF THE MOUNTAIN LIGHTNING. THEY
WOULD DRINK WHEN THEY COULD AND SOUGHT IT WHEN THEY COULD NOT, FOR IT PROVIDED THEM
WHAT THEY NEEDED. THE STORM WAS MOST PLEASED WITH MANKIND, FOR THEY SOUGHT TO INVENT
TOOLS, AND THESE TOOLS WERE USED TO DISTRIBUTE MOUNTAIN LIGHTNING ACROSS THE EARTH.
THE MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL INVENTIONS WAS THE VENDING MACHINE, FOR IT WAS WITH THIS
THAT HUMANS COULD FINALLY DISPENSE MOUNTAIN LIGHTNING TO THOSE WHO NEEDED IT MOST.

IN THE TIME IT TOOK TO FINALLY INVENT THE VENDING MACHINE, MANKIND BECAME HUBRISTIC
AND SHORT-SIGHTED. THEY NO LONGER CARED TO SPREAD MOUNTAIN LIGHTNING TO PRESERVE THE
LIGHT OF THE WORLD; INSTEAD THEY SOUGHT TO PROFIT FOR THEIR OWN GAIN.
