We'll have something more profound to share tomorrow. For now, the lovely image of a Hmelu stuffed animal. Tekumel's six-legged sheep are indeed six-legged.
As you can clearly see from the second picture, this Hmelu has two eyes. Not three. I am sure there are other Hmelu on Tekumel who have three eyes.
Variations almost certainly exist.
I have it on good authority that those raised on Ito lands are particularly to be avoided.
hmmm, six legs ... hmelu shank curry would be nice :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds tasty, I agree. If you Google Hmelu and Tekumel, you will find several references to Hmelu recipes. :)
DeleteOh, for some mint sauce! :)
ReplyDeleteHave I showed you the bunny rabbit that Alan Carlson's responsible for, by the way?
Not yet. I promise not to eat the rabbit if you show it to me.
DeleteIs that like a 3-breasted fryer?
ReplyDeleteStrangely enough, today's scripture was the parable of the lost sheep, in which a shepherd leaves behind 99 sheep to look for the lost 100th.
ReplyDeleteMy personal hypothesis is that the Ancients of Tekumel were particularly fond of drumsticks.
