The correct answer is: ***Another magic cane brought them to a higher plane, with more light and vegetation, and here was the creation of the animal kingdom.***

Indeed, Pueblo Indians believed that in the center of the Earth was Myuingwa, the Creator God of the Interior and that during creation he allowed the first men to move up through Earth’s crust all the way to the surface in order to be part of his Creation. The line mentions light (the sun), vegetation (the flora), and the literal creation of the animals (the fauna). In Pueblo religion, the earth was divided into several levels, each one containing a part of the Creation. The first lower levels were occupied by the god and the humans, the upper levels contained the light, the air, the wind and the final levels contained the plants and the animals.
