We are left with ancient fames
No longer knowing who they are -
No-more will we hear the names
Antilla! Atlantis! Lemuria!
Author's Notes: This was going to be for my HSC, stuff happened, now I'm doing it next year. But - I have to use totally new ideas, so I figured i'd stick them online.
This one is to represent the variety of the beliefs and cultures that make up so many faiths. So many Gods, and Goddesses and heroes, all reflections of the mindset of our ancestors, all pieces of their life, and in many cases, the last vestiges of once proud civilisations, centres of spiritual and intellectual enlightenment and even militaristic or economical powerhouses.
