So, have you ever thought about why the stars are in the sky, why they are so bright? Or where the constellations came from? Well I am going to tell you. A long long time ago, back when the gods still visited earth, there was a Woman. A Woman named Zudiakus.
Zudiakus (zoo-dee-ahk-us) was beautiful she had beautiful dark brown skin, she had hair like locks. She was kind to all. She knew that their was good in all people and that everyone should get a second chance. Now don't go thinking that she was weak, oh no she could fight, very well I might add. Her kind but strong spirit caught the attention of a sun god. Apollo the god of the sun. He fell in love with Zudiakus and left olympus to meet her.
When the two met they fell in love and they had twelve girls you can call them the original sun children. The first girl Mellisa the daughter of darkness, next Yahme and Mairah the daughters of power and dance, next Emyah the daughter of color, next Gemini and Sarah the daughters of happiness and light, next Iemanja (ee-may-geeyah) the protector of the children and daughter of water, next Toni the daughter of fire, Terra the daughter of the earth, next Nzingha the daughter of fighting, next Sogolon the daughter of sisterhood, then last but not least Airana (air-ee-na) the youngest and the daughter of the wind. All their girls had their mothers beauty and strong spirit plus gifts from all the gods and goddesses. So when the time came of them to fight for their home they could.
But then the titans and the nirads came. Side by side the daughters,their mother Zudiakus and their father Apollo went to fight for there home. Now let me tell you the strong family of 14 fought well, I mean they were counting how many titans and nirads they took down.( titans = 10 points nirads = 5 points) They had made it a game because the girls were getting bored.It was looking like they were going to win. But then the titans started to use their powers and the girls and Zudiakus fought as hard as they could but they were out numbered and sadly they were... were... they were killed, the strongest fighters the world has ever known died a fighter's death. Dieing in battle.
Apollo tried to bring them back. But zeus could not make them human again. So Apollo told Zeus to " Make them the stars that light up the night sky so there sacrifice is never forgotten and remembered by man(and woman)." And that is what he did he made them the stars you see when you look at the night sky, And if you you don't see them that means they are fighting with their father to protect there home and the people they love and care about.
"So what did you think? Do you remember your teachers telling you this story in school? Well thats because most people forgot their story. So I reminded you. We don't want to face the wrath of Apollo now do we."
