My grandma told me this once and I cannot stop thinking about it since. It has been over 25 years.
“We (Venumbris) used to walk on Earth like Gods and through the millennia we have mixed our blood with the Umanis and we have become nothing but mere mongrels.
We used to be proud, worshipped by them, living our lives freely and using our gifts and knowledge daily and without fear, but our foolishness and tendency to befriend them thinking that we could live in harmony lead us to decline, our numbers diminished and we've been hunted to near extinction.
Since then we've been made to masquerade and live in their shadows with the fear that they might discover we exist and hunt us again.
So here is my question! Why don't we take control? Why don't we come out of our hiding places and take over? Why do we only prepare defences in case we need to fight back, and we don't use what we have in order to tip the scales and live once again without fear? Walk the Earth like Gods once more.”
