4. ,, THE COROLLA ofthe valley below the Great Mountain, the people ofthe Village are bustling with excitenient. lt is time for the Festival of Aims, on annual celebration during which each craftsmah presents his work as a gift to the Village and the general well-being of its population. From the Forest came the hunters, who bear , which will someday be marvelled and' studied as baroque architecture. Fromthe Garden come the intoxicated artistslwith paintings, statues, and songs that i brighten the world of ia blind beggar.'The, doctors come with :heir potions,the' gi X. ' i Magician with His blessing. it is a of t consonant reiaicing, and no aneleaves unrequited. But beneath the alacrity lies a cryptic message which is relayed from one game that shall feed the children and allow them to grow strong. Close behind them are the carpenters, who drag lags generation of villagers to the next: there is no foe that unity cannot subdue. 3' t V V 5' 'Q .

N .fi iff t l rf' HERE JUTS FORTH from the face of an otherwise undisturbed horizon an immense mountain, the peak of which is attainable only to those with the strength and endurance to conquer it. The air atop the Mountain is thick and penetrates all but the armor adorned by its inhabitants. From here we can rocket through the turgid arms of Zeus, who hurls thunderbolts with the same precision and velocity that mortal men hurl mere words. Through the fleetness of Mercury, the finesse of Apollo, the scorn of Medea. Strength. Might. Power. Men have worked for it, played for it, gambled for it, and even died for it. But only those who possess the courage to try, the will to overcome obstacles and seek the truth know strength in its most impermeable form. True strength is not absolute freedom from defeat but lies rather in rising above each defeat with new understanding and insight into the recondite life and regimen high above the innocent clouds -- the zenith of the Great Mountain. www W M if ., ll E gd I 'lr sf' pn' ' Il I --t K, M 3 he-' gvgks- rv , ..- l ff 'M 7 'WH ' f 4. ,K ,genial .
