After the time of the Great Flood there came a time when the  world was trying to recover itself with the aid of the Immortals and their advanced Atlantean technological skills.  The Earth Doctor escaped the Great Flood through the stargate he created when he destroyed the earth with the magic baby created by Elder Brother whose screams shook the earth creating the great flood when Atlantis sank.

Before the time of the Great Flood, Earth Doctor made images of clay, and told them to be people. After a while there were so many people that there was not food and water enough for all. They were never sick and none died. At last there grew to be so many they were obliged to eat each other. Since Scattach the Scottish Warrior, also known as the Shadow because she is a vampire, shapeshifts into a Salmon and survives the Great Flood carrying with her sacred knowledge into the next civilization that the Immortals work together to create.

What the Earth Doctor did not know was that a handful of people from the first world had already gone through the portal in in order to survive the earth changes and then they came back through the time travelling wormhole stargate when the earth was finally inhabitable again after the flood and destruction. Because of their ability to shapeshift into their bird forms he bird deities had the ability of swift travel and with the aid of a magical spell they eventually had the ability to time travel like the Earth Doctor.

The Norse Goddess Freya the Hawk and the Irish Goddess the Morrigan the Crow used their skills to help with creating new civilizations. The Immortals used some of the sacred geometry technology of the Earth Architects. This is what Geb the Egyptian God the Duck and the Father of the Snakes, had used when he had helped to create civilizations from Zep Tepi (the first time) to recreate much of what was needed to succeed in rebuilding the human race and earth in this time and space dimension. Thoth the Egyptian God the Ibis hid the knowledge and kept it under a magic spell that can only be found by the one with the pure of heart.

Geb  had appeared to be dead, but he was in transition of shedding his skin like a snake. Geb who is known to be the father of the Snakes used the information that is contained in the Emerald Tablets of Thoth. This is the knowledge of creation itself and the knowledge of immortality. Geb is the serpent who cannot be killed that guards this knowledge of the Emerald Tablets that many throughout time seek and only few will find. 

While Nathan was in the Vatican Library Melchizedek the Priest gave Nathan the directions to locate the spot where Nathan can find the Emerald Tablets of Thoth. Will Nathan find the sacred information in time and achieve initiation and ascend like a god into the next dimension?

Author's note: The original stories from this unit were from many different tribes but had more similarities than differences. In the Native American traditions, they used the symbols of animals to tell the stories of creation. In their holistic beliefs, we are all related to each other. So I chose to find the deities that are represented by the animals and gave them their human personas. In the original story of the Origin of the Sierra Nevadas and Coast Range,the three birds are creating the mountains of the earth. Sounds impossible unless you look at the symbolism of who they could represent. I chose some fun ones! The Hawk is represented by Freya the Norse Goddess, the Crow is represented by the Morrigan of the Irish myths and the duck is Geb the Egyptian father of the god Osiris. 

I got the idea of the stargate portal from the story The Creation of Mankind and the Flood, when the Earth Doctor creates a hole and walks through it. I have been looking for a way to use the stargate to tell a story for Nathan to time travel with.
