The Arguing
The Lezbeens went to the east. But they discovered that the season was always spring. The hour was always dawn. It was as if time had stopped. The Gaes went to the south. There it was always midday. In the south the season was always summer. The Pansexuals went to the west. In the west it was always autumn. There it was always evening. The Transgender people went to the north. In the north it was always winter. The hour was always midnight.
The Gaes found plenty to eat. But the sun shone down on them with great fierceness. They could go out of doors for only short periods of time. Water was hard to find and their throats were parched.
The Pansexuals found enough to eat and they could move about comfortably but they were always sleepy. All they wanted to do was lay about and tell stories. Because amongst them there were both men and women, they were able to reproduce. Their numbers continued to grow. The Lezbeens in the east and the Gaes in the south were not able to reproduce. As the years passed and some of them began to die, their numbers were diminished. They were threatened with extinction.
The Transgender people in the north lived in a grove of oaks. They found almost nothing to eat. The north was a gloomy place, and there was a continuous new moon. They had to melt snow for drinking water. They spent almost all of their time sleeping and dreaming.
The Transgender people were forced to be creative. They were the first to practice magic, healing, and the hidden arts. They would eventually become the All-Chemists. They tried to reproduce themselves but there were problems. Some of the people had penises but many had no vaginas. Some had breasts with which to feed newborn babies but no wombs in which to grow them. Some of them had all of the sexual parts of both sexes but no desire to mate with anyone. When some of the transgender mothers succeeded in giving birth, the babies were usually stillborn.
The Transgender people were starving, and some of them froze to death. Whenever someone died the others immediately ate them. They had to do something or they would all die out. They cried out to Vulture to save them from that frozen wasteland.
