The Fon creationmyth is the traditional creationmythcreation story of the Fon people s of West Africa . Various versions of the creation story are told. In most the creator is either Mawu , the moon being and mother of all the gods and humanity, or Mawu Mawu Lisa , the sun moon being who is both male and female. In others, Nana Buluku is the ultimate creator, an androgyny androgynous deity who gave birth to the female Mawu and the male Lisa and passed the power over creation to them. Many of the creation accounts tell of Mawu creating everything as she was carried from place to place on the back or in the mouth of Ayida Weddo Aido Hwedo , the rainbow serpent. The earth was created first, its curves, slopes and rises shaped by the winding, snaking motions of Aido Hwedo. Mountains formed from Aido Hwedo s excrement wherever they stopped to rest, leaving precious minerals inside. When Mawu finished, all of the mountains, trees, elephants and other creations left world too heavy, so she asked Aido Hwedo to coil, to encircle the earth and rest underneath to support its weight. Aido Hwedo holds his own tail in his mouth to hold fast to the earth, and rests in the cool of the seas which Mawu made for him to protect him from the heat. Mawu s son, Agbe, now commands them. Whenever Aido Hwedo shifts or readjusts his position, he causes an earthquake or tidal wave. ref harvnb Leeming Leeming 1994 page 97 ref ref harvnb Courlander 2002 ref Notes reflist References cite book first Harold last Courlander title A Treasury of African Folklore The Oral Literature, Traditions, Myths, Legends, Epics, Tales, Recollections, Wisdom, Sayings, and Humor of Africa publisher Marlowe & Company year 2002 isbn 9781569245361 ref harv cite book title A Dictionary of Creation Myths first David Adams ... ref harv Category Creator gods Category Creation myths Category African mythology africa myth stub fa ... more details

Myth Drannor , formerly known as Cormanthor , the City of Song , is a fictional Elf Dungeons & Dragons elven city in the Forgotten Realms world. It is located in the area called Cormanthyr . Fictional history Myth Drannor, also called The City Of Song , was once considered to be the most beautiful and peaceful of any of the cities in Faer n . At its peak, no city could compare to the glory of Myth Drannor. All races lived in complete harmony for the first time in memory, without fear or corruption. However, the city has been in ruins for many years. The city was once protected by a device called a mythal which is one of the greatest spells in perhaps all of the Realms. The mythal is a protective spell which shields Myth Drannor from outside forces and from general harm. Cormanthor became known as Myth Drannor after the mythal was raised. It was during this time that Elminster visited the legendary elven city and became an armathor. He also helped create the mythal, alongside the most powerful mages in Myth Drannor and normal citizens giving their strength to the newfound mythal. Coronal Eltargrim, the elected ruler of Cormanthor at the time, decided to open the elven realm to non elven races in order to halt the slow decay of his civilization and prevent human armies from forcefully entering the city in the future. Myth Drannor was tragically overrun by the armies of three Yugoloth nycaloths after the nycaloths were inadvertently freed from their prisons in Myth Drannor by a Red ...

That specific result gives events and actions, even retrospectively, an inherent purpose. When applied to the historical process, an historical teleological argument posits the result as the inevitable trajectory of a specific set of events. These events lead inevitably, as Karl Marx or Friedrich Engels proposed, to a specific set of conditions or situations the resolution of those lead to another, and so on.
