Two Pigs in a Blanket

Somewhere near Nepal there were two pig spirits.
The female one was able to come and go on the wind and fog to travel near and far.
The male had 36 transformations and was able to see into the true soul of mortals and demons.
To earthly eyes, indeed both were good to look at.
The female one said, "Truly, if we had offspring, they would be a fine specimen of Pig"
So she took the male on the wind and fog into the mountains where they found the ice mountain snow flower in full bloom. They climbed between its petals whereupon it closed in on itself and hidden in the snow they stayed there for 200 years.
The male awoke one time and the cold snow had seeped ino his essence but warmed by the female he moved closer to her.
The female pig said to the male, "You have been away from the outside world for so long, and cannot travel on the wind and fog as I can. Your 36 Transformations may not be enough toprotect you as you have forgotten how to use them fluidly. You must look into yourself to find a way down the mountain, for once this flower opens I must travel a different road and have no time for you."
The male said, "Let us look into each other so that I may find the way to travel on the wind and fog as well."
"How?" said the female.
"Let me inside of you." said the male. and she obliged. But the Male pig was unable to see inside of her nor could he see inside of himself. So attempted to bring the female into on of his tranformation of flint and stone to turn her into a spark and open her up in a flame that he might catch a glimpse of her. But the many times he had done this his view was merely obscured by the fire. Now he was obscured by the fog.
So it was that he came to release himslef fully inside of her and they separated.
She became unable to travel on the wind and fog temporarily and he could not see within her nor within himself but felt only weaker. But with that he took his first step down the mountain into the snow to move closer to clarity.
