Listen! Listen, and I'll tell you a story!

Far far back, farther back than one, two, three, a hundred generations can remember, Pokemon had no powers. They were feeble and mortal, and they cowered before the great Esteemed beings that were their gods, unable to do anything but bend before the mighty World as it was, which was tumultous.

Imagine!

One of the Esteemed, who was mother to all of the mortals, hid herself among them. She came back and said that they needed help, that something should be done to bring their hearts closer to the Truth of the World. She said that maybe the Esteemed, who were part of the World and could shift it as they liked, should give a bit of their knowledge to the lesser creatures, so that they too could have their hearts and bodies filled with the power of the World.

Imagine!

So the Esteemed of the World by Day came up with a plan, and made three treasures. These treasures played a song night and day, and anyone who heard the song was blessed with knowledge of the World and its powers. The three of the World by Day took the treasures to the hearts of their kingdoms, where the songs rang out through all the World - the land, and the sea, and the sky all shook with the songs, and earth and water and wind danced about the mortals.

Imagine!

There were four more Esteemed who decided that they, too, had something to give. And so Progenitor and Earthcarver and Worldheart and Melodious all went out to play their songs - but there was no more room in the space of the World to hold the songs. So they went out amongst the mortals to teach the songs and put them there in the hearts of Pokemon, where even the singing all through the land and sea and sky of the World could not drown them out.

And what of the humans? Ah, they were Pokemon once, too - but they were the only ones who never heard a song, and so they were Pokemon no more!

Mountain high, mountain grand, tell me your secrets - and I will tell you mine.

Melodious, Melodious, sing to us! We are your children dear, born of the ice and bound to your heart, which beats out the rhythm of our lives - let us melt into the blizzard wind. Will it carry us away? Will your wings take us into the cold bright sky, ride upon the frozen air and send us up to the ice-burning sun? Melodious our mother, tell us a story!

Bow once to the north - there is the pillar of stone which holds up the sky.

Bow again to the south - there is the edge of the world.

Stand tall, and breathe - praise be to the Esteemed!

Now my tale can begin.

Telling Song
Verse 1

Three steps forward, out from the clouds, and there will be a multitude - she will be infinite, in the time beyond knowing, and the sky will be her embrace! This she has told us, Melodious in her song of songs...

In ages past, she made her nest upon this mountain, and from it watched the world. We came to love, and be loved - and that was the first word we knew, which Melodious gave into our souls - and that is the word at the core of ourselves, our rule and law - and with it we were saved, beneath her wings, in the years of little hope! She watched, and breathed that word into the ice air, and our duty was to reciprocate.

So we grew, and she was our Guardian.

This was how her greatest Song began.
