Long ago there was an Island called Atlantis where every people lives in harmony, peace and prosperity blessed by the God of the seas, Poseidon.
Time after time the villagers would offer him a sacrifice in order to please him and satisfy his leisure and because of this practice the Island became more wealthy and successful.
A beautiful maiden was born, Cleito. Everywhere she goes men would flock to her and admire her angelic face. No one can resist the beauty of Cleito that is why all the ladies in the Island were eager to make her disappear.
Due to the raging jealousy they planned to throw Cleito into the ocean for the maiden is bad in swimming, Cleito's friend Dalela heard their plan. She was terrified to tell the lady so she asked Poseidon for help, She kneeled and beg him to rescue her best friend, later on the unfortunate Cleito was nowhere to be found.
The villagers who planned to eliminate her was shocked, No actually they were amazed of what happened. They spread a rumor saying that the God was not pleased with her so it decided to take the maiden's life.
The village went rampage, Cleito's sisters were sold and became prosititutes while here brothers became slaves. They treated her family like a trash, they killed her parents and the child for they believed that the mighty Poseidon will be pleased with them.
Meanwhile the Lovely Cleito was kept by Poseidon in his cave, He can't help but admire the enchanting beauty of the lady. He decided that she will become his and they will live in his kingdom. He did everything he could just to have Cleito. As he ask her for marriage, Cleito hesitantly opposed the idea of marriage for she do not really know who this man and She is worried about her family, she beg for him to return her home.
Poseidon was dismayed and sadden so he ask Apollo for advice. He began he's journey to the sun without consenting Cleito. It took him Three days to see Apollo and by the time he got there Apollo immediately told him to let the woman go, for what intends to happen, will happen.
Cleito was waiting for Poseidon, she was worried. She realized that Poseidon was slowly creeping into her heart, She missed him and wished to Athena. The goddess spoke and said, Be true Cleito for everything will be in place. she was puzzled but as Athena disappears Poseidon entered the cave.
She was about to give him a hug when cold, dark eyes met her and Poseidon said, "You can go to the Island now, I no longer need you here." she was stung by the words of Poseidon. He pulled her out and throw her into the ball made of water, It was spacious inside. She screamed as the ball starts moving, She was afraid of the water but She's more afraid to see Poseidon's hurting face.
She found herself inside their house, She looked for her Parents but all she found was her sisters who were happy to let those man touch them. She immediately ran away from there and cried, What happened? She asked herself.
Dalela was walking in the street when she noticed a familiar figure. She walked closer to see if the conclusion playing in her mind is true and it is, she saw her friend Cleito crying. She immediately pulled her out in the crowd and in to the bushes. She apologized and cried in front of Cleito, she told her everything including her begging the God of the Seas, Poseidon.
Anger burned inside her, she can never forget what the villagers did to her family. She promised to avenge her family and make them suffer. During the day of the sacrifice, she walked in to the large crowd wearing a hood and cape covering her whole body.
By the time they offer their sacrifices, Cleito grabbed the offerings and throw it away. They were shocked and furious, They attacked her and took of every clothing she's wearing. they tied her in front of the altar exposing her naked body and throwing rocks to her.
Big wave of water covered the body of Cleito, she was half dead and her eyes were half closed but she manage to say the words, " You've saved me again." Poseidon's rage grew big and decided to wash out every villager living in the Island.
Not long after Cleito bore an offspring from Poseidon and was named Atlas and Altis which is why the village was called Atlantis.
In the early age the Village grew more prosperous than before and more lively than before the decendance of the two offspring multiplied as to why it became the most populated village in the world.As years passed Cleito gained eternal life and lived peacefully with Poseidon blissful years came their way as the twin offspring passed the generation continued to multiply and because Cleito obtained a heavenly body in exchange of her healthy womb keeping the mistress from creating offsprings.
As the society grew bigger the greed within started burning as to how the people began creating crimes and murder. This began to worry Cleito and kept it out of Poseidon's wide ears.
The crimes became more serious than ever that even the mighty Zeus heard it directly from Apollo and because Athena had something in mind she played her cards right and turned the tables.
She tricked the whole council into casting away Poseidon's maiden and convince him to banish the sins that he made in order to claim Cleito's healthy womb. Athena got her eyes on it she want it so bad she never cared how ruthless her decision would be.
Jealous of how the other Goddess aclaimed their wombs from their husband's Mistresses since she is the the Goddess of Intelligence then why won't she use it for her own.
The council believed what Athena proposed and sent titans to eliminate the problem. Zeus sent Hermes to Poseidon and the latter told him the reason. Poseidon was furious and was out of control to him Cleito did not just became his Mistress but she gave him something to hope but never did he thought that this would be the outcome.
For a half decade he became more and more devastated as he heard how the people of his blood acted on land he became more wasted. He decided to banish everything once and for all.
He ordered the waves to crash the land called 'Atlantis' the land where he decided to settle down with Cleito. He watched how the waves mudered each and every memory that his beloved left, a single tear escaped his left eye.
He motioned his hand in completely terminating the land but something stopped him. "You saved me again!" an image of Cleito plastered to his mind as he stared at the land He stopped himself and thought how could he destroy Cleito's remaining memory.
He wiped his tears and decided to tucked it away for the council to believe he indeed did destroy it. hidden deep in to the water where sunlight can no longer reach the depths of the ocean lay a magnificent barrier crafted from Poseidon's power.
By the looks of it no one will recognize the atlantis that was banished from a long time ago, it held dear to the God's heart so how could he destroy the remaining treasure Cleito left. The memory of having an offspring, how could one can compare to the experience it brought a lifetime would never be enough.
