On a planet way out there was a being named Zulu. Her people were not as advanced as first world countries on Earth2022. Think garden of Eden, living in harmony with nature. Her days mostly filled with upkeep of the land, meditation, yoga, going to market, and spending time with family and friends.
When she turned 30 years old a friend gifted her a long silk ribbon that looked like the aurora borealis streaming behind you while running. She tried to use the ribbon in any way possible. Hanging it from trees, using it help with yoga poses, making it a hammock for afternoon naps, really it became her favorite possession. Soon all her free time was dedicated to spending time with this ribbon and using it as a way to express herself through movement of the body. She eventually found flow.
One night everyone in the tribe got together for the annual music festival with a large bonfire where they would celebrate life and honor those who have passed. As the ceremonial beverage started kicking in she got up and began twirling her Aurora ribbon, synchronizing with droning of drums. People of the tribe had never seen such a thing, it was astonishing to all who witnessed. As she got deeper into her flow she started spinning the ribbon so fast her feet started lifting off the ground. She realized what was happening and almost fell, but pushed her mind back and let the flow take over. As she started flying around all she could hear was everyone questioning how this is happening? Is this really happening? Then Zulu completely let go of any attachments she had and emptied her mind giving everything she had into flow. At this moment, she turned into a white flame and ascended into the cosmos to join the stars.
Zulu then woke up in a different place she had never been, a different dimension with a new body. A mind without limitations or doubts, capable of connecting with anyone who calls out to her across the universe.
Ever since then, her home planet always has bands of the aurora borealis effect in the night sky and they know Zulu is out there, always listening to the prayers of her people. Watching over them and protecting their way of life.
