This is a short piece of ogre folklore that's been translated from their simplistic gestures and grunts to Common tongue. This particular superstition has to do with a creationist theory held dear by a particular Trugg living in the Tribelands of High Trollar.
The Great Being
Long ago, a Great Being lived deep underground. It breathed in dust and breathed out stone, and the stone was gradually ground to dust that the Being inhaled. Then one day, the ground begun to shake up the earth, and while half the rocks formed together into larger stones, the other half cracked open and turned into seeds.
The seeds grew into plants that begun to stretch between the large rocks, and soon the hearts of the stones met the hearts of the plants and beat in unison. Then, these creatures breathed in the dust and breathed out air, and ate stones beneath their feet, and the Great Being underground begun to grow small and suffocate. As it shriveled up, its blood was shed in the soil and stones, which the creatures unknowingly ate.
The blood pumped through their systems. With this new life, their hearts beat and they started breathing in air and eating plants. But the Great Being was unhappy, and its blood was bitter and boiling. The stone creatures suffered when the Great Being tried to take its blood back, and the land rose up to claim the creatures that could walk away from it.
These beasts of stone and seed turned into the great ogres of today, and in fear of the Great Being's revenge, they spill blood on the stones to feed the Great Being once more and spare their own lives. They limit plantlife in the area in fear of the seeds combining with stone, and they fear natural disasters, as this suggests that someone has done something to anger the Great Being.
