Across the traditions

Reverse entry

They are spread across 4 different families, from creatures outward, which is the mark of a sense so basic that almost every tradition needs a word for it. God carries the most, with 5 separate fragments for it — a tradition that needs this many words for one idea is telling you something about what it cares about.
