The Word

In the beginning was the word and the word was YUM.

But the scholars and philosophers could not make sense of the ‘word’ so they crafted a new word with a meaning they understood. And the word was GOOD.

However, even amongst the ranks of scholars and philosophers there was malcontent and unease. So some, who believed that all must be in balance crafted the word BAD.

For a while there was harmony and GOOD and BAD were in balance. The word was used freely and the world turned.

It came to pass that among the guilds and artisans, there was the belief that their skills and art had been ignored. So together, with the aid of alchemists and technologists they developed and prepared a new word. And the word was EVIL.

And so it was that before long BAD was replaced by EVIL and the balance was disturbed.

Armies of great strength and size took to war and the streets ran with blood. Many died.

The priests called for calm and gathered the people to prayer. They asked the almighty for guidance and leadership in their time of need.

And the almighty heard their prayers and sent forth a messenger in the form of an angel.

And the messenger carried a scroll and upon the scroll in gold script was the word.

And the word was YUM.
