Big-brain shamans make tiny-world. Time no need sun or moon, just things change. Very strange magic!
Listen close, tribe! Big-brain shamans far away, from place called 'Bright-Speck-Place', they make magic! They gather many-many (24,000) tiny-cold-specks and make small-small world, like tiny cave. Inside this magic-box, they see time born! Not by sun-move, not by moon-glow, but time just *starts* when things *change* inside their tiny-world. Like magic-spirit, time just *is*.
This news shake our earth! If time only come when things change, then maybe our 'sun-up' and 'sun-down' is not true time-keeper. Maybe time is when mammoth falls, or when berry-bush grows tall. Does this mean we no wait for big-star-move to hunt? Maybe just *do* the hunt, and time will follow? This could mean more warm fur, more meat for tribe, if we understand time-magic.
### Local Commentary
Oog, local berry picker: "Ugh, so when my basket gets full of red-berries, that means time has passed? Not just sun moving? My back still hurts same! This new time-magic not help aching bones!"
Klarg, mammoth hunter: "Me thought time was when mammoth run fast or big spear flies. Now big-brain says time is when mammoth *changes* direction? Makes no sense! Still need big spear, still need strong arm!"
Chief Grok, Tribal Chief: "Ugg, the Great Shamans speak deep truths. Time is in the *doing*, not just the *waiting*. We must learn to *do* more, to *change* our ways, for the tribe's strength and for more meat!"
