The Origin and Etymology of the Name Campoon
Aunt Aelara, as Lex called her, was his personal Mother Goose. She told him one faerie tale after another, but with one important difference: her stories were true. This was one of his favorites.
A very long time ago, when the Island first encountered humans, its people had no writing and relied entirely on oral tradition. As the encounters became more frequent and language grew more complex, they heard murmurs drifting from the campfires and tents of hunter-scouts camped across the water from their shore. Then came chants of prayer or warding: “HA-OOOONNA, HA OOM!”
The chanting continued throughout the night. Here the story divides into two versions. In the first, one group grew tired of the noise and decided to raid the human camp. They crossed the stretch of water between the Island and the camp to frighten the humans away. According to this version, the people known as the “camp-enders” eventually became the Campoons.
In the second version, a less intimidating group also crossed over to scavenge from the human camp. The humans frightened them away by calling them goons, making them the “camp goons.” Either way, the name arose from the hunter-gatherer camps on the neighboring shore, where humans first encountered the Island’s original inhabitants—whether the humans realized it or not.
