Hmelu-Hmelu


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.

    1. Sounds tasty, I agree. If you Google Hmelu and Tekumel, you will find several references to Hmelu recipes. :)

  2. Oh, for some mint sauce! :)

    Have I showed you the bunny rabbit that Alan Carlson's responsible for, by the way?

    1. Not yet. I promise not to eat the rabbit if you show it to me.

  3. Strangely 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.

  4. My personal hypothesis is that the Ancients of Tekumel were particularly fond of drumsticks.
