Thetant’iti       God of the frozen underworld village of Aner’dul

Gurn’iti           God of male protection and eldest son of Petatoo and Berant’iti.  Protects all males from birth until death.  All males have an eye tattooed on each hand so that Gurn’iti will always witness what a man is doing and what he has done.

Metalatoo        Goddess of Winter – Slowly works her charms over Berant’iti the Sun God over the year.  Her spells put his rowers to sleep and cover his boat in a heavy frost that slowly sinks it in the sky.  This causes the heat of the Sun to diminish allowing Metalatoo to bring frost and snow to the world.  After many moons her power begins to diminish and Memer’iti, the God of Summer’s, power begins to take over.  Slowly his power allows Berant’iti to rise into the sky again bringing Memer’iti’s summer with it.

 Events

Panek’dul        Berant’iti, the god of the Sun, chases his wife, Petatoo, goddess of the Moon,  across the sky endlessly through time but he never seems to catch her.  Far, far in the future at a time called Panek’dul, Berant’iti catches Petatoo and they begin a fight that is the cause of the destruction of the world.  All the stars are knocked from the sky and the mountains are smashed flat.  Soon they become tired and after a short rest begin to make love.  Petatoo becomes pregnant and soon, sooner than humans, Petatoo gives birth to a new world.  Once she has rested for a while she jumps upon her silver horse, Hormotoo and begins to race across the sky.  Berant’iti, inflamed with desire for her, begins to chase her and so begins again the whole cycle of days and seasons.
