Tla dluu gaagwíi

Tla dluu gaagwíi
Ancient Times - before humans came into being. It was over the horizon.

When something took place before we Came-Into-Being we refer to it as Tla dluu gaagwii. We know about it because Raven told us. Anyway, Tla dluu gaagwii, Hlan Gwan (the Earth), was covered with mostly water then it shook real hard and dry land came up.

Gaagwíi is often translated as "long time ago", but what it really means, is that "it’s way over there," I can see it.
