In cha not-Macha-hole was fiiah undef.
Fiiah bahn baht could not bahn Macha. Baht. Macha not fiite fiiah. Not niid.
Cha Thundah-wahn came to thinking, lookinged on fiiah and was not happi.
Cha Thundah-wahn left Macha-hole to fiiting fiiah.
Can be written as—
"As Writing-One wrote, the many came to think
In the not-Much-Hole, was fire under
Fire burns, but could not burn Macha. But. Macha don't fight the fire. No need.
The Thunder-One came to think, looked at fire and is not happy.
The Thunder-One left Much-Hole to fight fire."
всегда веренOKAY SO BASICALLY
I gotta go soon so I'll simplify it a bit
The Tsuuk-Hri cosmogony:
In the beginning there was a Primordial Being who gave birth to the gods that the Tssuk acknowledge, or the progenitors of said gods.
Due to this action of giving birth, they think of it as female, and call it Great Mother.
Firstborn amongst the gods was a Triune. The two members of this Triune that I'm really solid on are the Thunderer and the Scholar. The third I mentioned was something conceptualised as space itself, but I'm really not solid on that tbh. It's something I need to work on.
Triunes are big in the Tssuk-Hri pantheon.
Outside the Mother's Cave, fire rages imperishable. It is another being that simply Is, Primordial, though it is not remotely as important or as powerful as the Great Mother in Tssuk belief.
The third primordial being, incidentally, I think is Void. But it's possible the Tssuk might believe that to be an aspect of the Mother.
The Scholar began to write, and this produced causality. Now the story of time is outlined, and there is before and after. This also produced thought, and the gods, who had previously simply existed, came to conscious thought. The Scholar is included in this awakening, for prior to it, she was simply enacting her primordial, designated role.
Now the Mother wants for nothing, and so the fire rages imperishable across the Earth. Noxious fumes fill the sky and nothing can breathe. The Scholar sees all and is content writing. Though she does not like the fire, she is content to wait.
The Thunderer looked upon the fire and was not pleased by it. She left the cave. Fire met water and a great steam rose above the Earth. Great holes were carved out in the land, but the two beings were evenly matched. However, as the steam rose above the Earth, it formed clouds, and the rain inside fell to the Earth, so that the Thunderer was replenished even as the fire lost fuel to consume. Thus it is, and the fire cannot defeat the Thunderer when she comes in might.
The Thunderer's waters rushed to fill the chasms of their battle, and these are the oceans.
The fire fled to dwell in the darkness of the Void. Then the Earth, which had previously been dead (both consumed by fire and without thought) came to be. He asked where the fire had gone, and who the Thunderer was. The Thunderer told of her battle with the flame, and how it had fled her. The Earth saw that this was good, but he looked to the void and said that surely the fire would return, as it wished to consume. After all, the fire is imperishable, and cannot be killed.
So the Earth suggested, as written by the Scholar, to build a dome from his solidness with which to bound the heavens. This was done, and this is the Firmament, and the fire was bound beyond the Earth where it dwells in the void. The Scholar did not protest, although the heavens are her domain, for it was as she had seen it written.
This was good, but the Thunderer saw that it was incomplete. It is good, but the fire shall rise again in power and consume the Firmament and grow. So she suggested that she pour out her waters to fill the heavens and guard the Earth, and that she can wage war eternal against the fire. This was to be called sky. This was done, and again the Scholar did not object, though the heavens were her domain.
The Land saw this and said it was good. Then the Thunderer and he produced many offspring. These were both gods and new creatures that were not gods. They were without thought, and the Thunderer created them to serve her and the Land.
Many eons passed and Kihwa skipped over a lot of god shit here.
The Scholar looked at the animals and saw that it was time. She chose three, one from the land, one from the sea, and one from the sky, to give them thought and ensoul them. This was written, and it was.
The Thunderer raged then, asking her sister why she interfered with her work. The Scholar responded that this is what was written, and it was good that they should think, and their life should come to be, though the fire burned with desire to destroy it.
The Thunderer tried to fight her sister, but the Scholar is she who writes all and though she could not match the Thunderer in might, the Thunderer could not hold her.
The Thunderer then raged with desire to destroy these new creatures, but the Scholar held her tight and stayed her hand. She again spoke, and this time persuaded her sister, who was ashamed of her desire to destroy these new creatures. For the Scholar fights her battles with Words of Truth and the True Writing, and there are none that can withstand her in that way.
The people of the sea were the Myr. The Hri are the people of the Land/Sky (I haven't decided on this yet). The Hri know the third exists, but they do not know what they are. They only know from their scriptures, and tales of the Myr.
And then Kihwa stopped.
whoops I guess I didn't simplify after all
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
that is okay I have to go too

it even seemed to be sung by JYB actor which makes it all the more puzzling that that was the only video with it ever in it
this is why copyright law must be updated for modern times
Incidentally, regarding the FG
Because the language barrier is Quite Hard about this and I want to ramble/elaborate because Kihwa's not going to acquire the vocab any time soon, I'll explain the Cosmogony here after she's done explaining
I'll honestly be really impressed if you manage to actually understand much
