+# kalama pali pi kulupu Kala
+
+I've wanted to write a novel for a while, and I think I've finally got a solid
+idea for it. I want to write about the good guys winning against an oppressive
+system. I've been letting the ideas and thoughts marinate in my heart for a long
+time; these short stories are how I am exploring the world and other related
+concepts. I want to use language as a tool in this world. So here is my take on
+a creation myth for the main species of this world, the Kala (the title of this
+post roughly translates to "creation story of the Kala").
+
+This is day 2 of my 100 days to offload.

+
+In the beginning, the gods roamed the skies. Pali, Sona and Soweli talked and
+talked about their plans.
+
+tenpo wan la sewi li lon e sewi. sewi Pali en sewi Sona en sewi Soweli li toki.
+
+Soweli went down to the world Pali had created. Animals of all kinds followed
+them as Soweli moved about the earth.
+
+sewi Soweli li tawa e sike. soweli li kama e sike.
+
+Sona followed and went towards the whales. Sona took a liking to how graceful
+they were in the water, and decided to have them be the arbiters of knowledge.
+Sona also reshaped them to look like the gods did. The Kala people resulted.
+
+sewi Sona li tawa e soweli sike. sewi Sona li tawa e kala suli. sewi Sona li
+lukin li pona e kala suli. sewi Sona li pana e sona e kon tawa kala suli. sewi
+Sona li pali e jan kama kala suli. kulupu Kala li lon.
+
+Pali had created the entire world, so Pali fell into a deep slumber in the
+ocean.
+
+tenpo pini la sewi Pali li pali e sike. sewi Pali li lape lon telo suli.
+
+Soweli had created all of the animals on the whole world, so Soweli fell asleep
+in Soweli mountain.
+
+tenpo pini la sewi Soweli li pali e soweli ale. sewi Soweli li lape e nena Soweli.
+
+Sona lifted themselves into the skies to watch the Kala from above. Sona keeps
+an eye on us to make sure we are using their gift responsibly.
+
+sewi Sona li tawa e sewi. sewi Sona li lukin e kulupu Kala. kulupu Kala li jo
+sona li jo toki. kulupu Kala li pona e sewi Sona.
