Many moons ago, in a place where a war started, there lived a king and a queen. Their names were Andronicus and Arina. They had been forced to leave their home.
They had run away east into the wilderness. Many refuges joined Andronicus and Arina. Andronicus felt sorry for them so he gave them as much food as possible. All the refuges wanted Andronicus to be their new heir.
The people celebrated for everything that Andronicus has done for them. The people built magnificent places for Andronicus to thank him for everything that he had done to saved their lives.
One day, Arina went up to Andronicus and whispered, “Don’t go too far with your palace.”
“What do you mean?” replied Andronicus. Arina was now getting quiet annoyed but kept her irritation to herself. Andronicus was now puzzled but still determined about his city that it is going to grow and it is going to be the best palace that was ever made by people.
Over the months flew, the place was growing and the population was growing to help making the place. Arina came up to Andronicus again and asked, “Don’t you think our foreign city land is magnificent?”
“You mean good but not as magnificent as you think it is.” Andronicus said in a harsh voice. However, the two didn’t know that one of the gods was watching…
The next day, Andronicus woke up and saw his magnificent land. He went up to the window and said to himself, that this is really his land. The god that was looking from the sky and disguised herself invisible and entered in Andronicus’ room. She moved out the way and made Andronicus think that she wasn’t even there. When Andronicus went and went to bed, he had a dream about a god Athena, she will destroy the land. Also she will be next to him the next day but Andronicus didn’t believe her.
When Athena was next to him the next day sitting next to him the next day in the morning, he yelled “Get out of my way!”
“Why?” questioned Athena.
“This is my palace and by the way, get your rags off!” shouted Andronicus. Athena disappeared. He felt all the action and nasty things he had done and said.
Whilst Andronicus was thinking about his greediness, Athena went into the underworld and told Hades to flood the river Synx. Hades did as he was told. Athena made holes all over the ground and black bubbles came up until it flooded the whole land. This was the last time Andronicus saw his growing land.
