‘We need a people who are of us, who are of the gods themselves,’ Tesetra declared. ‘A people who have the potential within them to be as the gods!’
And she cried once more.
The Tears of the Moon.
Yet these were in many ways different tears to the earlier ones of bitterness and fury that had wracked destruction upon the earth.
These were far more joyous tears, for Tesetra had at last recognised who she really was.
And she had the power to readdress all wrongs.
She had within her all that was needed to create a new people.
The Tears of the Moon fell like the silvery white spume of waves, snaking through the air, falling everywhere around the Earth. An Earth bathed entirely in Tesetra’s silvery sheen, a covering of her mystical of waters.
And wherever her tears struck and touched these waters, the tears became children, boys and girls, the beginnings of a new people.
‘Our children,’ Tesetra announced proudly.
And as the children swiftly grew, walking off hand in hand, Tlaloca arched across the sky, her colours those of the most beautiful rainbow.
