Hairfolk
-------------------------------------------------------
Now in the days of SCIENCE, food grew scarce amongst the Hairfolk; though the Triplets Three searched long in the deep woodlands of their god, they knew not how to gather the high fruits of the manikub tree, nor knew they the secret hiding places of the eating grub, and so the Triplets Three returned forlornly home with meager haul and empty belly.
Yet the Triplets were not so easily confounded! Again they set forth into the wood of their god, to try their luck as they may.

Father-Elder Varchik feared for his people, in those dire times, in those first of days. Father-Elder feared, lest the Triplets again set forth into the wood-of-the-doctor, and again find nothing. The Good Doctor was surely powerful, but where now were his wonders? Where now was his hand? Driven by fear, driven by the coming hunger, Father-Elder called his son Borchik unto him, and together father and son set forth to seek eating-things in the land they knew so well.

Now Ammak was a great lover of the works of Tarchik the Tinkerer, and understood them well. Quickly she learned the wild logicks that Tarchik devised, and with wonder she beheld the cunning cogs and torsion-cords that Tarchik wrought. Soon Ammak herself came to take up the tinker's mantle, with a fervour-- a madness-- that Tarchik had not dreamed. Thus was Ammak called the Mad.
When the creeping hunger came, and the wilds grew harsh and barren, Ammak saw that the labor of the Triplets Three must one day come to nothing, and to death. Knowing this, Ammak turned her eyes to the mighty Wilderbeasts that roamed the grass, and saw that their flesh was rich and abundant. So she had words with Tarchik the Tinkerer, and the two sought with demented contraptions to capture and to tame the Wilderbeast.
