Ahe wandered, seeking out distraction. He had a place to retain and train the clarity of his mind, yet he was putting off that great task. Its greatness and finality was intimidating. If he were to rest in place and commence with his task now, he would likely never finish. So he would start it later.

While observing the seas beyond his dry lands from atop a red mountain at the eastern end of the great red range, Ahe thought of organizing his thoughts about why he was pushing the task into the future. For his first thought, he thought that the concept of “tomorrow” was rather amusing and decided to abandon organizing his thoughts any further. He got up and flattened the tip of the mountain he sat on. Into this plateau he carved a massive glyph - the memory of Tomorrow.

Ahe left the memory of his thought and began to track Tomorrow, heading across the sea. Tomorrow would hold his thoughts, organized and complete. As he traversed land and sea again and again however, he couldn’t find Tomorrow. It remained a day ahead. This was a curious experience. Ahe wanted someone else to track Tomorrow and wonder about it. He descended on a coast across the sea from his land and gathered thoughts about a new creature.

As Ahe thought, a form of dense light would appear in front of him, immaterial and shifting. He thought of a resilient communal creature who could pass on knowledge. He thought of a creature who could traverse distances and overcome a challenge. But he also thought of a creature unready to face many challenges - challenges to both the body and the mind. He thought of a creature who could and would learn and improve, a creature who would attempt to master matters. He thought of a form - standing high on two limbs, with another number of limbs left free.

Still the form was incomplete, ever shifting. It would have one upper limb, then five. Its head was shaped as a star, then ballooned, then became smaller once more. Its legs were straight, but then they were not. Ahe was unsure.

He pondered for quite some time, his creation shimmering and shifting. One day, the light attracted the attention of another - Chepra. The curious Elder Being descended beside Ahe, observing the uncertain figure before Ahe.

“Is it made to attract visitors?” Chepra asked. “You’ll have plenty of friends in no time. I’m Chepra.”

“One is perhaps enough. Ahe.” Though not particularly enthused about the idea of friends, Ahe thought Chepra looked quite intriguing. And so, the image of the Being on his mind, he conferred a similar image onto the new creature. He was content with it, so he made more and brought into life the Hadradi - they who would know Tomorrow.
