This epic of Hillkind Origin has been passed down orally from generation to generation by the mountain ministers. This book was compiled and edited by an unknown author, written in Sindamm.
I sing the praises of that hero and his descendants, the family that suffered unjust treatment.
He was the first 山臣 to leave the plain and journey upstream, the 山臣 cursed for slaying a god.
Tormented between the plains and peaks, they would forever remember that night.
All things bear tears, the things of this mortal world touch the heart…
The poem records in detail how Gelolade, a warrior among the hill subjects, challenged Gedo, the god of fate at the time, and succeeded in slaying the god. However, the reward for the hill subjects' courage was an endless curse—the Gelolade clan suffered even harsher punishment for their transgression, and this is the origin of Hillax.
