[meteorite-list] Marquesas Islands Meteorite Mythos

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks]

"In the beginning, there was nothing. There arose a swelling, a
ferment, a black fire, a spinning of vortices, a bubbling, a
swallowing - there arose a whole series of pairs of props, posts or
piles, large and small, long and short, crooked and bent, decayed and
rotten. Similarly, there arose pairs of roots, large and small, long
and short, and so forth. There arose countless and infinitely many
supports. Above all, there now arose the ground, the foundation, the
hard rock, there arose the space for light, there arose ROCKS OF
DIFFERENT SORTS."
