"The History of the World," as described by Ezarh'had Daan Jhae'œn Amarazae, is a telling of the creation story among the Aman'haddi, or marsh Giants that inhabit the Great Dismal Moor along the southeastern borders of Cadraswé. According to the Ezarh'had Daan, he first encountered the Aman'haddi only a few days after beginning his Walk in 795, C.R. While the telling varies from speaker to speaker, the Ezarh'had Daan found this version by a warrior-griot named Ngaj'in to be the most compelling. Ngaj'in, one of the Assi-Wer rangers from the Agwó-Zos "dry-home," sang the version transcribed here as she, a young nameless Jhae'œn, and their companions, recuperated from battle in the ruins of the Aman'haddi's ancestral city. Many regale the tale of that epic battle as the more significant element of his time in the swamps, but in the years since his return to claim the Amarazae seat and face the ensuing catastrophes that befell Agwe, the Ezarh'had Daan insisted that this simple campfire song gave him the insight to survive his walk, and the strength to face what was to come. Here, the Chaugwé Theater is proud to present the first installment of "The History of the World" as originally performed by the late Ngaj'in of Agwó-Zos.
