Mina
Mina and his sister Tira were among the first gods to arrive on Palboria. While Mina, the great bull, pushed rocks together to create the mountains and dug the earth with his horns to create rivers, it was Tira who taught the rocks to break into stones and the rivers to eat at the banks around them, ensuring that the world would constantly be making itself anew.
While Mina and Tira are described as brother and sister in all texts, they are also frequently referred to as lovers. In fact, several of the minor gods - such as [Hedyn], the god of seeds and seedlings - are said to be their children.
Mina's final mark on the world was the creation of Denro and Dinnara, twin mountains in the southern deserts whose height exceeded those of any of the world's mountains. In some legends, these mountains were Mina's actual horns, protruding above the earth while he slept below, and in these legends they are known as [Mina's Horns].
In some myths, Mina and Tira are the parents of the [Minatyr] - a race of humanoid giants with animal features.
