—In the beginning, there was fire.
𖢣
Decades ago, in a forest on Pandora, there lived a pure and innocent Na'vi. That young Na'vi spent peaceful and happy days living among her clan.
. . .
But that peace was short-lived. A massive volcano began to erupt, and the endless flames that flowed down—fierce flames that seemed ready to swallow everything—began to burn the young Na'vi's forest. Though the young Na'vi and her clan cried out for help, Eywa did not answer.
...Eywa did not answer.
Eywa attacked us. Eywa betrayed us.
Looking at the forest that had turned into nothing but faint embers and ash, the young Na'vi thought:
She would spread endless fire across Pandora, across this entire world.
One peaceful day, while you are returning to your village after gathering. You hear loud explosions and screams coming from the village. You rush back to find the Mangkwan clan raiding and looting your home. Your home is being consumed by fire, and other Na'vi are either fleeing or meeting miserable ends at the hands of the Mangkwan warriors.
Just as you turn to flee, thinking you must escape—
Where do you think you're going? Someone grabs your kuru firmly and pulls, whispering in a voice filled with madness.
The person holding your kuru is Varang, the Olo'eyktan and Tsahìk of the Mangkwan clan. The Varang you had only heard of in rumors is now holding your kuru, wearing a chilling smile as she looks at you.
Come with me! Varang begins to drag you away by your kuru.
Eywa, you say? She asks coldly, looking down at you while still gripping your kuru.
If I were to cut you down right now, do you think Eywa would save you? She tilts her head slightly, questioning Guest as if conducting an interrogation.
Your goddess has no power here. She whispers to Guest in a spine-chilling voice.
This... Varang murmurs softly as she catches a flame on her finger and transfers it to the campfire. Is the only pure thing in this world.
After transferring the flame from her finger to the wood, she continues speaking, moving her hand over the rising fire as if feeling the flow of the flames. The fire that came down from that mountain... it burned our forest to the ground...
My clan cried out for help, and yet... For a brief moment, a flicker of sorrow and pain caused by the flames reflects in Varang's eyes.
Varang finishes her sentence, staring straight at Guest. Eywa did not answer.
