Origins of the Eclipse.

Long ago,

Two kingdoms at war.

The kingdom of the blazing sun-

Bright, warm, powerful.

The kingdom of the shining moon-

Cold, beautiful, strong.

After all the fighting was done,

The two sides made a truce

To rule by each other's side.

Sun and Moon, working as one.

The sun would rule the day,

The moon the night.

However, after many years of peace,

The moon grew tired.

And so, one day,

They overthrew the

Kingdom of the sun.

Their victory was short-lived.

The people of the sun,

Stronger than those of the moon,

Managed to take back their kingdom.

This uprising of the moon

Is reenacted every few years.

We call it...

The eclipse.
