This play is believed to date to the earliest days and is thought to originally have been an attempt to find resolution to a tight property market. A lack of tilable land in the
highlands led to a few having access and control of food stuffs. A situation that left many folks striving to produce trade fare that was desirable by the few. A general
lack of the required talents to produce such items by the majority carried them into poverty, which eventually led to riots and rebellion. As a way to stem this discontent,
the few with the most contrived a play structured to direct the discontent of the destitute back onto themselves. This play was titled Crafting Fate.
The members of the cast are normally children because it is felt that it is during youth that cultural boundaries are set. They continue to take part in this yearly portrayal
well into their young adults’ years as a way to continue the indoctrination.
Although normally presented as an action play the Theater of Resolve is sometime presented in the plastic arts. When it is it will often express the complete transpiration
of events in a very general manner instead of a single incident.
