This may be confusing at first But there’s a place called Byootia floating in the sky Byootia has many different locations Each location holds its own unique qualities and features There are four valleys of mountains in Byootia The valley of life The valley of love The valley of hope And the valley of dreams Maisilianndro is a home of vast fungal networks called Mycelium It is located just outside of the valley of life Yaiyanna is a small village that resides in the tallest mountain of the valley of dreams Ałoo is a village on the shore of the ocean of Harmony Dałanna is a village located on the outskirts of Byootia that overlooks the entire land Baylorn is a place best known for its taller than normal trees, trees that can reach mountain tops It is located between the valley of life and the valley of hope The ocean of Harmony is the largest body of water on Byootia in fact all the rivers on Byootia run from this ocean Ooday is a large underwater village of coral reef networks deep inside of the ocean of harmony Milandro is a place on the land where the ocean disperses into rivers And Ededenda is a village beneath the ground located on the outskirts of the valley of Hope Byootia is primarily looked after by five overseers Each overseer possesses its own responsibilities and characteristics K'ałday is a colossal giant that roams the valley of life Maiyoo is a massive gorilla that lives in Maisilianndro Koomo is a huge polar bear that lives in Yaiyanna Koay is a large Raven that lives in Ałoo Looklai is an orca whale that lives in Ooday What we are looking at here is a vast land of mutualism Where every living organism is benefited by one another and they are all conscious of it Where respect is eagerly given to nature And where generosity is essential in the survival of communities I was so occupied Trying to belong But I didn’t realize This whole time I was already home Home could be a landscape Home could be inside a soft voice Home could be right here in Byootia Stay awhile…

Meet K'ałday A Byootian being with trees Growing from its body A skin of ecosystems A walking landscape When the evil comes the Byootians stay prepared Through all the wear and tear They’re not the type to hide They’ll bring darkness in light Brush strokes of tree sap on K'ałday’s chest As a first line of defense to serve and protect A being that can be seen from miles away The Giant is known as K'ałday From soil to sky Take death make life Beyond these bones Nature controls A landscape to explore Part of Byootia, Beauty galore Plants do magic they’ll even glow Fungi do magic they’ll talk to your soul Nature has new senses and exists in four dimensions Orbiting a planet on an axis that is spinning Every kind act creating ripples in the water If mother natures a mother then Byootia is the daughter Plants and Fungi can communicate with you And influence their surroundings Beautiful mountains and trees alongside a river channel from the ocean Remember to be grateful Because there is nothing that you have That cannot be taken away

Beneath our feet All you need is empathy Empathy for what lies beneath Mycelium it made a city Maisilianndro Wise as the wise goes Maisilianndro Wise as the wise goes A gorilla known as Maiyoo was born here Maiyoo is as tall as a tree Everybody looking at Maiyoo smiling Born with love and sensitivity Interconnected networks without the use of technology Generosity and communication between fungi and plants Baylorn in the distance And Maiyoo here to hold you high So you can see So you can see Beneath our feet All you need is empathy Empathy for what lies beneath Mycelium it made a city Maisilianndro Wise as the wise goes Maisilianndro Wise as the wise goes

Koomo on the side of a mountain In the valley of dreams Snow speaks to Koomo and the wind it screams It’s howling like the wolves Persevere Because that’s all Koomo really knows Climbing mountains with frozen toes Holding hope and never letting go Never letting go Never forgetting the purpose Don’t have time to be nervous Up at the top there’s a village Yaiyanna Yaiyanna Where the people don’t have heroes Where the animals need saving The plants need Koomo because they don’t grow here Giving the power to a big white bear Yaiyanna Yaiyanna

A waterside village The liquid harbored us all A devotion worth rejoicing And destined for all Koay the Raven was born in this place With an intimidating wingspan meant for a leader Flying at speeds no other bird could chase Overseeing the waters and protecting the youth in Aloo If life ended today It was so beautiful If life ended today I cried it’s beautiful A waterside village The liquid harbored us all A devotion worth rejoicing And destined for all

Deep in the ocean of Harmony Looklai the orca whale was born in Ooday Under a purple ocean Ooday has found new ways Within a coral reef village An orca whale was born Roaming through the ocean of Harmony Looklai Looklai Looklai helps the other fish get food When no one does Looklai watches over Aloo when Koays gone The krill on the floor eating the algae The people at the top collecting ocean debris Everything should be maintained and cleaned Even the parts nobody sees Healthy and unhindered organisms Thriving underwater ecosystems Coral reef cities they are massive Everybody look it’s so captivating Biodiversity at its finest This place controls the climate Koay above the water flying Looklai inside the water swimming Ooday Ooday Ooday Ooday

Everything is connected through the cycle of life Evolution and adaptation through the cycle of time Rich and colorful coral reefs The source of all Byootian life Micro-algae that contributes to communities of fish Purple water that contributes to the weather of Byootia Eternally preserving biodiversity In my own land My own land Symbiosis Symbiosis Mutual relationships in harmony

I wanna go to the mountains Where the clouds lay beneath my body The thing about this place of ours The sun shines eternally in the valley of Hope You can become one with nature When you feel the scenery inside of your veins Life is a balanced system Because, with us, Mother Nature does the same I wanna go to the mountains Where the clouds lay beneath my body The thing about this place of ours The sun shines eternally in the valley of Hope If you only knew the good of this world You wouldn’t be so bent out of shape And I’m and I’m proud to see you today Hope you make it to the next one I’ll be waiting for you here Rise above that storm and you will find the sunshine Dont stress Simply take the necessary action to make things happen It’s not about control it’s about flow Everything that is lost will be regained once again I wanna go to the mountains Where the clouds lay beneath my body The thing about this place of ours The sun shines eternally in the valley of Hope

So, you’ve made it a long way You’ve met K’ałday the Giant Maiyo the gorilla Koomo the white bear Koay the Raven And Looklai the orca whale You’ve experienced adventures in the valleys of love, hope, dreams, and life Through the deep purple waters of the ocean of Harmony you found a coral reef city known as Ooday Through the vast city of mycelial networks and mushrooms in Maisilianndro The beautiful landscapes of Dałanna and Ałoo You traveled into the ground, the deep soil in Ededenda The cold peaks of Yaiyanna And you also walked through the tall tall trees of Baylorn And what’ve you learned from this journey? Where all kingdoms of organisms speak the same language Where every being has an ecosystem living on them and in them Where nature is simply always and forever going to be the higher power You can look to the skies, to the trees, to the soil, to the water And no matter where you look You see Byootia And that’s a beautiful thing We can sequester darkness like the trees sequester carbon In this world the sweetest fruits come from the harshest winters Where the unknown is welcomed with open arms Wherever the wind blows Wherever the seas change tide Nature always love you Until the end of time.
