EINGANA

Also known as EINGANU

EINGANA: Snake Goddess of primordial DREAMTIME, and the mother of humanity and all water animals.

Initially she had a lot of trouble giving birth, not having the relevant aperture. This was rectified by another deity, who obliged with a spear in the appropriate place.

Since then, creatures and humanity both great and small have issued forth. But EINGANA keeps hold of the mystical umbilical cord, attached to every living thing. If she cuts the cord, the creature dies.

And if she herself should die, everything would cease to exist. This worries us. Who's holding her umbilical cord then?
