Many changes occurred over the years, but one caused the Guardians great concern. Some of the human beings had grown dissatisfied. They thought they were better than the other members of the Living Kingdom. They selfishly used the Kingdom's gifts in ways that hurt the earth. Worse yet, the more they took, the less connected they were with the life around them. Their senses dulled. They no longer lived to the rhythms of nature. They no longer spoke the language of life. Eventually, they even lost the ability to see the Guardians. In essence, they were no longer human beings, but human doings.
