As I was scraping a stick across some rocks, I noticed it got sharper when I turned it. Pretty soon we had some good sharp sticks that we called spears.
Just before the sun set, we saw another transparent being. It wasn't Lucifer, we hadn't seen him since Father told him to leave. He waved to us and told us his name but it was really long and neither of us could remember it afterwards. He showed me that I could use some dried leaves and sticks to create a pile. He then said to look for two black rocks. He called them flint. Eve found some and he showed us that when hit together, it created what he called a spark. He said to make a few sparks near the dried leaves and sticks. Pretty soon the sparks got bigger. He called that fire. I touched it and immediately pulled my arm back because it HURT! He said fire will burn anything and be careful when using it.
He showed us that we could put some of wolf's meat on a stick and then hold it in the fire to cook it. He told us to blow on it after getting it out of the fire because it was hot. Fire makes things hot. He also says the big light in the sky during the day was a planet of fire and that's why it got warmer during the day. We tasted the cooked meat after it cooled and that was much better than the not cooked meat. He also said we could cook the potatoes too but to make sure the fire isn't so big so it would cook the potato slowly. He also showed us that we could put rocks around the fire and the rocks would absorb the heat and it would slowly let the heat out. So now we decided to have a fire every night to cook our dinner on and then it would keep us warm on cool nights too. He left as we started to fall asleep.
