Creation Myth

Long, long ago, there was a time when the world was a bit of darker place, for the stars were not yet created.  During the daytime, the earth was illuminated with the light from the sun god.  The sunlight helped the people of the Earth, by brightening the world and allowing their crops to grow.  At nighttime, the moon goddess was responsible for providing light, which was especially helpful when people went on expeditions through the night.  However, every month when the new moon approached and the moon was hidden, the night was completely pitch black.  On this dark day of each month, the horned-monsters of the Earth emerged from their slumber to try to kill the humans who roamed the planet.

One day, a hero by the name of Lucia set out to kill one of the horned-monsters.  He was successful in slaughtering one of the ugly creatures.  The planet praised Lucia for being so brave by risking his life for the people of the Earth.  Lucia burned the creature's body, (everything but the horns) as a sacrifice to the moon goddess.  The moon goddess was very pleased with Lucia so she took the horns of the beast and punched holes in the canvas of the sky through which light magically poured out.  These holes in the sky became what are now the stars, a gift from the moon goddess to ensure that no night would ever be dark again, and so the horned-monsters would never return.
