Raven Tales - Creation of World

Creation of World

Initially there was no world, Raven was bored that he was all alone, then Raven's father Kit-ka'ositiyi-qa, told him that one day he would be bigger, older and stronger enough that he could create the world. Raven liked the idea of being the Creator of the World. When he grew older and stronger, he started thinking of the different ideas to create the world, but none seemed to work.

Finally, he gave up the idea and went flying in the wind. Suddenly he saw some dirts and rocks, thereby the idea struck in his mind, that these things could be the foundation of the world, but he could not make it stick together. Over the time he became frustrated and thirsty, thereby he gave up again and went flying in search of the drink. When he saw water, the inspiration struck him again. He brought some water and mix it to make it all stick together.

After working on it for a long time, he wanted to make it smooth and perfectly round, but he failed again, thereby out of frustration he kicked it as hard as he could. Later after coming out of his frustration, he wanted to work on it bit more, but when he picked it up again, it already hardened and world was already created.
