In the beginning, when the lands and the water and animals were new and pure, the Gods of old divided the lands so that each may have their own. Poseidon, God of the seas, waters, and of earthquakes, protector of seafarers, was given his own island. Bigger then most, consisting of many mountains and waters. Poseidon fell in love with a mortal woman, Cleito, and created a dwelling at the top of a hill near the middle of the island, surrounded by rings of water and land to protect her. Cleito gave birth to the first rulers of the island and the island was then divided between them. The eldest, Atlas, became King. The people lived in great wealth and were a noble and powerful race and for generations they lived in peace, with simple and virtuous lives. But slowly they began to change. Greed and hunger for power began to corrupt them, they begged the Gods for more. When Zeus, Poseidon's brother, saw the immorality of the Atlantean's he gathered the other Gods to determine punishment. Soon, in one violent surge... It was gone. The Island of Atlantis, its people, its memory were gone, never to be found or discovered, completely swallowed by the sea. But is that the real story?All Rights Reserved
