The History of the Valleys

Genesis 1: 1-25

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.
3 Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
4 God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.
5 God called the light day, and the darkness He called night And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
6 Then God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."
7 God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were below the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.
8 God called the expanse heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 Then God said, "Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so.
10 God called the dry land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, "Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind with seed in them"; and it was so.
12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.
13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14 Then God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years;
15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so.
16 God made the two great lights, the greater light to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night; He made the stars also.
17 God placed them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth,
18 and to govern the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good.
19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
20 Then God said, "Let the waters teem with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the heavens."
21God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."
23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and it was so.
25 God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.



From the time the Lord said, “Let their be light.”, there was life. As the Lord created the earth, the story begins. This is where the story of the valleys starts, in the beginning, as Genesis says. The valleys were created on the third day, after the seas, the sky, day and night. The valleys were before anything, before man and before the equines that roamed the land. On the third day, grass, trees and any-type of vegetation was made to feed the future equines and to make the valleys seem real, and full of life.

Then on the fifth day, the equines came into the picture, as well as every-other type of creature that the Lord created with His hands. The first equines were male, and female, like how they are now, but they were created from the hand of the Lord. They saw the Lord and how He was, and they knew they had to fill the earth for Him. So the two new equines bred and produced foal, after foal, after foal for their Creator.

Years past and the flood came, taking the many equines that were from the very first two equines of the world. There were two lucky equines that made it into the large ark that the Lord told an ordinary man named, Noah, to build. Noah took great care of the two equines that the Lord had chosen to be on the ark to repopulate the earth with. When the flood was over the two equines left the ark, and the man named Noah, to find their own home and their own life.

The two equines found a nice home near the landing of the ark and bred. The Lord blessed them with twins and then from their on the populating kept going. As time kept going and the Lord’s plain for the earth went on, two equines decided to find their own homes and travel far away from the home their how-ever many great-grandparent’s had found a long way back. The two equines were named, Wahine and Paniolo. Wahine was the female equine, and Paniolo was the male. They traveled together and fell in love, like the Lord had planned.

As Wahine and Paniolo traveled they met a few other equines that were searching for a new home and they all joined together. The other equines names were, Kumu, who was an older male, Honu, who was a young female and Kalo who was Honu’s mate. All five of the equines traveled well together and had a wonderful time. As they traveled though, they did face danger and loss.

The loss was when the five equines traveled up the mountain that shadowed over the two valleys that the equines would build herds in. When the five equines traveled the mountain it was winter time, and everything was covered with snow. Wahine and Paniolo were leading the small herd, like they had always done, and they were first to find danger. As they walked they could all hear the groaning sound of the mountain, and then the ledge where they were all walking, broke. Wahine and Paniolo fell from the ledge, to their deaths.

Kumu, Honu and Kalo were all safe on the other side of the pathway that they all had been walking on. The small, three equine herd, called for Wahine and Paniolo for two days before they realized that they would never hear their friends speak again. Sp Kalo, the younger male and mate of Honu, lead the small herd up the mountain and to the other side, where they found the two valleys. The small herd deiced to name the valleys after their past friends.

After a while of living in the middle of the two valleys, the small herd of three, became five once more. Honu had given birth to twins, one female and one male. The pair named their children after the valleys and after their friends. Kumu, the older male, watched for only a year as the twins grew before he died of an illness. The twins were very stricken when they knew they would no longer have their “grandfather” around.

A year after Kumu died a herd of six equines found the valleys and the small herd of four. The herds became one and joined forces. The years went by and the herd lived well between the valleys, but a sickness came through the small herd and killed the parents of Wahine and Paniolo. So the twins decide that they could no longer live between the valleys, but had to live in them. So Wahine took the valley she was named after, and Paniolo took the valley he was named after.

The years flew by after that and herd after herd of equines came to the valleys to fill them up and keep the blood-lines pure. The herds were aloud to chose which valley they preferred and their was no fighting between the two valleys, because the Lord wanted it that way, and because their was nothing to fight over. Now the valleys are ruled by new equines, but the leaders are decants of Wahine and Paniolo and are greatly proud of it.

Now as the years have pasted and all of the elders have died and gone on onto heaven, the Paniolo Valley has turned dark. There once was an evil leader of one of the herds, that only got the throne because of blood. This evil stallion band all of the herds together and made them evil. This has been going on for a hundred years. The herds have split up once again, but there is still evil in the Paniolo Valley.

Now You Just Have to Decide Which Side of the Lunakini Landstrip You Want to Be On……Wahine or Paniolo?
