Atabey is one of two supreme deities of the Taino people. She is the goddess of fresh water and fertility. She is also known as Caguana a spirit of Love and Guabancex the violent wild mother of storms, volcanoes and earthquakes. The Taino's used to worship her and hold her on high but she noticed as time went on her people worshiped her less and less as they became more consumed with modern advances. This caused Atabey's powers to diminish and she has become weak. It became difficult for her to watch over the Caribbean. Less and less people believed in her. She looked to the mortals and noticed that many of them have either became lazy, self absorbed, or both. Though there were many advances to modernize the people and make their work lives easier the enviorment around them has been neglected and abuse through the modern advancement. "These mortals have become so self absorbed and gluttonous that they don't realize the how their selfishness causes destruction around them. At this pace no one animal or human will have clean water and I will disappear. What could I do to get their attention to get them to make a change?"
