The Eye of the Sleeping One is the sun , the Light. According to the Burun, The Sleeping One created, after several unsuccessful tries, the world of Bur and its first living beings. Both the Burun and the Fiazhat, the intelligent races of the world of Bur, can be seen as its children. It created the world and its inhabitants because it felt lonely. It placed in the mucor the memories of this time, this creation; the time before all there was. It felt the weight of its efforts and closed its eye. Across the sky its brothers and sisters shown upon Bur and the scattered remnants of its first attempts spun about as a reminder of its failure to the growing brothers of Bur.

abstract	The Eye of the Sleeping One is the sun , the Light. According to the Burun, The Sleeping One created, after several unsuccessful tries, the world of Bur and its first living beings. Both the Burun and the Fiazhat, the intelligent races of the world of Bur, can be seen as its children. It created the world and its inhabitants because it felt lonely. It placed in the mucor the memories of this time, this creation; the time before all there was. It felt the weight of its efforts and closed its eye. Across the sky its brothers and sisters shown upon Bur and the scattered remnants of its first attempts spun about as a reminder of its failure to the growing brothers of Bur. The Sleeping One is known for not always being attentive, when it had closed its eyes, sometimes with disastrous consequences, such as twice breaking the world of Bur, and the mingling of the Falatacot with the Fiazhat and the Moar. The Falatacot also succeeded in blotting it from the sky. When The Sleeping One saw the world again, it wept and some of the mire returned. But five thousand years of reverence had been stolen from The Sleeping One and its power was diminished. After the Falatacot left and the disasters drove a part of the Burun underneath the earth, two different views on The Sleeping One came into being. The surviving Burun locked beneath the surface of Bur, having no access to the Light of the Sleeping one in the Sky, enact the great rites of The Sleeping One and continue to preach his praise. They consume the mucor and know much of what transpires across the world. They come to think of The Sleeping One as the underground swamp in which they live. Dark, potent and pock marked with pustules of filth. They herald a time when it will crack the world and a flood will carry them to the surface to bring vengeance to their enemies. The Burun in the great swamps continue to preach the tales of The Sleeping One, but lack of mucor and poisoning from various molds, fungus and algae that are now used to enact rites drive many of the surface dwelling Burun mad. They envision their god as an amorphous pustule of slick muck covered in pustules that vomit putrescence onto the world. The madness is spared of a small contingent of Burun that have access to the mucor. This group of Burun adhere to The Sleeping One's true form as the watcher in the sky. Browerk issues the prophecy of Revenge: The prophecy spells out a vision that the mucor granted of The Sleeping One opening his eye after a time of great sadness and allowing the Burun to visit death and humiliation upon the Fiazhat's gods. This proclamation instills the strength of the hierarchy and reinforces belief in the Kukuur as the true leaders of the Burun. After Tkrowerk's (Browerk's rebellious offspring]] death, The Sleeping One's eye closes and the rains begin anew.
