about

I'd like to tell you a little story. It's about me and perhaps... about you?
My name is Yrrah. I live with the Fanlit tribe near the Blue Mountain. I am not allowed to go with the other hunters because of a nasty accident I had. I was chosen to turn the herd of twisted-horn gembrils to the trap canyon but they were not impressed. They ran straight at me and suddenly a mighty hand seized me and squeezed my arms against my sides. I could not move and the herd trampled me down. Above and below, all tumbled and everything went dark around me. They say I turned pale like the white mew in wintertime and slept dreamless for many days. The old Shaman healed me but despite his awesome powers it still took a long time before I could move around again. I never got bored though. Shaman is much funnier then I knew. He told me many stories then and I liked them although most of the time I did not understand fully. He also taught me to use my voice to hold Nature in my minds eye. It is a very powerful medicine and somehow it felt very familiar, like I had forgotten and now remembered?

Now I'm going to the Cave of the Blue Mountain. Shaman said my body is almost whole but I must heal my spirit as well before I can go hunting again. My head is too strong and Shaman cannot help me put my faith in the other one, who he says lives inside of me but does not have a name. I must find him myself and learn to trust him. Shaman did have advice though. He told me to go and sing in the belly of Mother Earth with the gut voice he taught me. I should not be afraid when many voices sing with me and I must keep on singing no matter what. When the Spirits tickle me, I am on the right track. What will happen?

Harry Lieben Assen, Netherlands

The first instrument of man is the voice. The first amplifier, a cave. For a caveman, there is no middle of the road.
