The Emergence

The Emergence

“The Emergence” used grouping of four a lot, which represent north, south, east, and west.  There were four worlds in the myth, the first, second, third, and fourth world. The bugs first started without wings but when they need to get into the second world they tied wings to their backs and fly threw a crack into the second world (499). Each world got better, with more food, sunshine, people, and land (499-501). Four colors, black, yellow, blue, and white, were also repeated throughout the story but stood for something different each time. For example, the first world was the black world, the second world was the blue world, the third world was the yellow world, and lastly the fourth world was white (499-500). Each world improved because the growth of the insects increased as they stayed in each world for a period of time. Black, blue, yellow, and white also stood for birds and bodies (499).
