In the beginning. There was only sky and water. One day Hercules was sitting around and was so bored. That day he said there must be something missing on this planet.
“But what is missing?” he said to himself. So he sat down and thought of what is missing. Maybe it’s something that is hard for even me, the strongest god in the sky. What is that thing that is hard for me to lift? Land, people, and plants.
So Hercules goes and asks his friend Samuel, the wisest god in the sky. They went to see the ruler of the universe, Pueblo. Hercules asked, “Will you grant my only wish that I have,? It is to have humans, plants, and land. Is that all right with you, Pueblo the ruler of the sky?”
“Well, will you come back tomorrow, and I will tell you. I have to ask Imaccola, the ruler of the sea, for her permission because I too would like to see land as you so call it.
So Pueblo went down to see if it was ok if Hercules and Samuel would be able to build land, plants and people and animals.
Well I appreciate you asking me, Pueblo, but they can only have about half of the sea. Is that ok with you, Pueblo?
Well that's good enough. I think we can make this land and all the stuff I told you about. Don't let those two mess around. I don't want them to mess this up. Ok, Imaccola, I wont let them mess it up.
So it became to be that Pueblo watched them work so those two idiots didn’t mess it up. The next day Pueblo told Samuel and Hercules. They were so happy that they were able to build the land and the living things that would be on the land.
So the two went down to the ocean and they put the magic ingredients that were a dragons scale and a dragons tooth.
So they dumped those two things in the water and Samuel takes his wand, and then he stirred the water. Samuel said to Hercules, “Run Hercules or we will get hit by the explosion.” So they flew up to the sky.
When they came back the next day they saw that there were trees, people, plants and animals. When the gods saw the land and what they saw on it they were amazed that two of the gods had created such astounding things as being a god. Then about two weeks later the gods came to live with the people.
