From about 11,600 years ago when they first learned to write and were experiencing their first love of all the arts comes a wide range of poems, stories and plays that discuss the arrival of a number of young woman, beings that traveled from world to world teaching those they met about the various different arts. There are between a dozen and 2 dozen of these young women whose voices were the pure embodiment of musical sound, who could create impossible sounds of such harmonious beauty from various different devices, things that were musical instruments. They taught the people how to carve, sculpt, paint, design, weave, compose and make music. Life became a continuous search for artistic perfection. Everyone strove to create bigger and better works of art in order to please these young women. | |||
Then one day the man arrived, tall, slim, athletic, with eyes of purest blue and short curly black hair. The young women from the stars bowed down to him, served him and did his bidding. They called him Apollo and he called them the Muses. He was seemed to command fear in them and take great delight in ordering them around. He told them his brothers and sisters were displeased that the girls had wandered and he was here to bring them home. Then suddenly one day they were gone. | |||
While the young women introduced them to the beauty and glory of all the various different types of arts they were never one of them. They observed, instructed and while never cruel, they were always definitely superior. When the man came things changed, the young women who had laughed, sang and been filled with love for all the arts became sad. The man was cruel, indifferent, demanding, forcing the people and the young women to do his bidding or else. | |||
They are to be feared and avoided. | |||
