MYTHS


Once there was a land full of nothing but sky and water. In the sky was a man who could walk on clouds. He was the protector of his creation the birds and there was another creature the fish created by a mermaid who was the healer of the fish. One day the protector found that he had a new power by getting angry at the birds for cutting through his clouds. He got so mad his arm swelled up and a yellow substance came out his hand. The substance made a chirping noise and when he threw it, it made an even bigger noise like a whale splashing in the water which it was called “dead light” when you hear the boom you know someone died. The mermaid told him not to use that power any more because it disturbs the fish and kills birds he said “I don’t care about your fish but about my birds they need to learn a lesson.” The mermaid saw that the birds were dying from drowning in the ocean as well. So since she couldn't convince him to stop the “dead light”, she put the ground from the water up to the surface and caught the birds. The man said "if you want to protect them so bad then they should be your problem not mine." He created one more bird that was very obedient towards anyone, but it looked kind of stupid so he gave him a stupid name "dodo bird". the mermaid also created birds for the new land so they couldn't fly but they could adapt to their surroundings unlike the others.The mermaid gave up her fins for legs to nurture the birds like a mother which is what they called her "mother nurture" before she died she made creatures to take care of the other animals which were called humans. They mispronounced her name and called her "mother nature". The man in the sky lived on and kept striking the dodo birds until there were none left. Then he learned how dangerous he really was, so he decided to only use that power when the rain pored, in memory of the mermaid, and turned a dangerous tool into a vision and sound of art. later because of the beautiful light the humans called it lightning and because of it's thunderous sound they called it thunder. The humans lived on and the rest is history.
