I've long thought or believed creation's stories were set into place by events special storytellers translated for children in future generations to understand. It felt like they were assembled to be told in the holiest of ways and within a physical space that resembled the origins of things, place and time. This story feels like that.- Gregory E.

The Tale of Seven Volcanoes
This is the story as it was seen by the eyes of the tellers. As I write this story for the children of times to come I must say I beheld these happenings with my very eyes. Some days ago, a set of notable folks gathered at the Bay of Hanalei. They gathered to celebrate the birthday of a child who bears the name of the land upon which they stood. You see this child was named for a special tree that grows on the cliffs northerly of this bay where the mermaid queen once called home and the peoples of today call the cave pool below the “Blue Room.” So, on this birth celebration day of Banyan Immanual, the peoples gathered and celebrated as they do on this island of Kauai, with fun, and surf, and food, and fire.
As the sun set, and the fire began to wane, several gathered near the glowing embers. To some it may have looked like a few unlikely children and two fathers curling up by the fire, but you see this evening it was a special group of people. Let me call them by name:
2 fathers John Andrew and Trinity along with 5 children.
Banyan Immanual son of John Andrew and Victoria Louise of Kentucky born and brother to Angelic Koa NaKai
Triton, son of Holy Trinity and Saint Mary Martha, brother to Rizon
Nene, son of Greek Niko of the Sea and Angelic Carla, brother to Anulea
Anulea, son of Greek Niko of the Sea and Angelic Carla, and sister to NeNe
Jonathon, son of Vanessa of Drum and Dance and Francis Primeaux Jr., brother to Wanbli, Grandson to Francis Primeaux Sr.
With these notable children of origin and power a special combination wove you see that gives rise to tell this tale onto thee. Each child began to shape the sand around the central fire, they shaped the sand to mountains of various size and in various direction. They shaped the sand with the seawater, they prepared the fire with the iron wood and java plum they worked the coals of the fire. Then they called forth to Pele. Then they called forth to Poseidon, to Hephaestus, to the Mermaid Queen, to Kama Pua’a, to Angel Carla, to Angel Koa. They said let us give life to mountains, let us fill them with fire. Let us show man creation, let us show the man the power of the Children of the Land.
So, each of the 7 sand mountains became sand volcanoes and the earth magic began. As each child took the glowing coals from the central fire to fill the core of each mountain the volcanoes sprang to life. Then each child fed the volcanoes with breath and fuel as flames erupted. A beautiful site it was to my eye to see 7 glowing volcanoes on the Bay of Hanalei.
7 days for earth and fire and sea works of such to take form, to manifest, and on the 7th day it came within hours of each other November 23, 2013.
1. In Japan, a volcano on Nishino-Shima Island erupted for the first time in 40 years. The eruption resulted in a new island in the Pacific.
2. Italy’s Mount Etna Erupts, Briefly Closes Sicily Skies.
3. Mexico's Colima Volcano created a steam and ash cloud that reached two miles into the sky.
4. In Guatemala, Fire Mountain lived up to its name and created a moderate ash could that blanketed the nearby towns with ash fall.
5. In Vanuatu in the Pacific, the Yasur Volcano had some weak explosions and the resultant ash fall is affecting farm lands.
6. in Indonesia, Mount Merapi on the island of Java exploded
7. In Indonesia, the country's Mount Sinabung spewed ash cloud four miles high
7 people, 7 days and 7 volcanoes, from a central fire, from the youthful medicine born to their blood. The earth magic is strong and creation is at foot. I tell this true tale to the children of times to come so we may not forget the power born within our being, the power begging to shine in your life, be it volcano or a song, each of you were born to this earth with medicine, and magic, with gifts and purpose. So we beg of you live your life full and express your genius in every corner of earth walk for we can see so clearly the future is in your hands so in this moment shine."
