flood

At the end of the bronze age, the human world became very cruel.

People become hungry, rude and ungodly. Rights and laws are no longer respected, and the principle of hospitality no longer exists. Zeus incarnated as a human being and came to Acadia and Sally. He didn't like the fatal mistakes made by human beings. He decided to wipe them all out of the earth. He released the south wind of Sailani without hesitation, and called on the ruthless Poseidon to help. Soon, the whole world sank into a piece of Wang Yang, and all mankind disappeared in this unheard-of flood, except the poor Thessaly.

This is an old couple without children, kind, loyal and satisfied with life. This man's name is Du Kallion, and his wife's name is Pilar. Ducalion is the son of Prometheus. His father warned him in advance that the flood was coming, so he became a giant. When the roaring flood came, the couple hid in it and floated for nine days until the flood reached the land of Mount Panacas again.

The once active world presents a frightening scene. This is death and destruction. The old couple felt lonely and unsafe. They prayed to the gods for help. A saint instructed them to throw their mother's bones around. The son of the wise Titan realized the true meaning of the mysterious command and began to throw stones behind him. A miracle happened. The stone cast by man became man; The stone that the woman threw turned into a woman. Since then, humans have once again appeared in this land. The heroic age has begun.
