At the beginning of time, the Sky Father and the Earth Mother were locked in a tight embrace that bound the Earth and Sky together, leaving no space in between. Sky was not separate from Earth or Sea. Rangi, the Sky Father, held his beloved, Papa, and together they bore many sons who were not human, but rather elements of nature. These sons loved their parents, but Rangi and Papa’s embrace was so tight that they had no space to move or to lead their lives. They lay in the darkness, constricted and unhappy.
