At the heart of all the communication lies the story -- the holder of hopes and dreams, fears and hatreds, passion and myster. What we are, what we will be and what we want to be comes to us to us in this form. But it is not enought to just create a tale.

Images must flash past the shocked faces of those around. Pulsing noises have to fill their world, allowing them little respite. Scents swirl around, and even the feel and taste of existence should flow through their bodies. Here exists the essence of the story: here it has life meaning and beyond the voice of the Story-teller.

The story can be no greater than its creator; the Storyteller, little better than her creation. But together they forge new ground, becoming far more than either alone.
