After Nv Wa created us, the water god and fire god got into a huge hissy fight. They fought from the sky to the ground, but the fire god won. The water god was such a sore loser that he hit his head on the mountain that kept the earth and sky apart. The mountain crumbled into itty bitty pieces and a chunk of the sky fell out. There was fire raging everywhere and flood water rushing out of the broken sky.

Now that may sound weird to you, but they would parch the land if the came out together. In fact, they even had restrictions for that. But nooo, they just had to make that decision, and the next morning they all went out to play baseball, just kidding, they went out and did things that suns do. This lasted for quite a while. Pretty soon our puny little lives got pretty sad and our numbers were dwindling. A "hero" Hou Yiwent to go and help us, then squinted through the blinding white light (when did they invent sunglasses?) aimed pretty well, and shot one of the suns. Boom! One Sun down. *8 booms later* Hou Yi's wife Chang E came to plead with him to not shoot th
Wait... so the tortoise is as big as a mountain???
