The Seed clans arrived, and strove to cross the waters, but as it had
chanced to the others so befel it all dismally with them, until loud
became the commotion and multitudes of those behind, nearing--even many
of the Midmost clans--turned and fled afar southward along the bank,
seeking a better crossing; fled so far that they were lost to sight
speedily and strayed never to return!
Nay, they became the fathers and mothers of our Lost Others--lost ever
since that time.
