 ==History==
+===Aarakocra Legend===
+Long ago we lived elsewhere. We lived in peace, at one with our world. It was a golden age. No poverity, hunger, disease or want, but we angered the gods and they banished us to the stars. For time beyond memory we wandered looking for a new world, a new home. Finally we found one that the gods would allow us to tread. Our homes dropped from the stars and we were finally allowed to soar upon the winds. Free from the confines of the space arks that had been our jail for countless years. We learned that we were not alone on this world. Others lived here who were not like us. They attacked and killed some of us. We were stunned, afraid. So we stayed away from them. Even when they stole the tablet of truth from us, we did not seek to retrieve it. But that was then, someday we will regain it. On that day the stars will weep and the gods will again show us the bounty of their favour.
+===Stone of Destiny===
+My father told me that using the machine we learned how to make the fisheries, and other things we needed. When the wise ones came, they mated with the early Pifili, and as far as I know, all Pifili are now descendants of the wise ones. So the machine was not hard for us to master, but it was my father who figured out the complexities of sky travel. His dream was to find the wise ones. When the revolution began, my father broke the stone key to higher calculations. He said it was too much temptation for any one person not to destroy the Aarakocra. He put two of the pieces in places where I would have much difficulty getting to them. And in places where the Aarakocra could not find them in case they succeeded in capturing the palace. Theo brought me one of them, and my father entrusted me with one. So now I have in my possession two of the stones. With all three stones I can open the calculations and bring peace back to Kallca, but that would mean the destruction of the Aarakocra, and I don't want to do that.
+===True History===
+Kaclla II is the native homeworld of the Pifili. The Aarakocra did not appear until more than 500 years ago. They fell from the sky in enormas vessels that lite up the night sky for hundreds of miles. Over night the world now had 2 totally different intelligent races seeking to survive within 1 ecosystem. Fortunately their needs for survival were sufficently different that they were able to co-exist with fairly minor conflicts that never grew in size or degree.
