"It is along the banks of the Indus river that my tale begins. As a child I played and worked along its banks, as my father before me, and his father before him. I knew the river well, we all did, it was our source of life. I had many friends, as there were many of us.
"In those days my people were scattered. Dozens of small tribes co-existed along the banks of the mighty Indus. Sometimes peacefully, sometimes not. All dependent on the river for its life giving water, and so too, fearful of its terrible wrath. Despite the occasional calamity, we were prosperous, and happy.
"Things have changed greatly since those early days, and I am now an old man. Change has been great for my people, the people of the river. My generation lived change. The great food surplus and subsequent population explosion led to rapid change among our people. No longer tied to the land, there was enough surplus food for other great tasks to be undertaken. The construction of entire cities, full of commerce and artisans.
"I was one of the first to see the promise and potental for this great change and development. People came from all over to this place, this city on the delta to make a new life. These new, independent men of my generation had hearts for change and were inspired by my call. A promise of a new way life, a new system, a new...civilzation.
"In this great city of Dehli, my followers and I established a government and raised an army. Many more flocked to our borders to seek protection and share in our prosperty. Our city grew and grew, and surrounding tribes pledged fealty to us, the Indus civilzation.
"My works have been great, and my people mighty. But my time in this world is soon over. My generation has dared many things and oversaw much change. It is now time to pass off this grand civilization to the next generation of rulers.
"I have made my decision, it is you, Rehman who shall rule over Delhi in my stead. Remember all that I have taught you. Remember the history of our people, and remember always....your....father......"
With that, Dheri the First, his name now lost to history slipped into the silken shroud of a sleep he would never awaken from. His son, Rehman I, held a grand celebration for the life and acheviements of his father and buried him in spectacular fashion in the center of Dehli. In his honor, Rehman sent many men east to begin construction of a great road to connect Dehli to many of the small villiages throughout the land easy of the Indus.
