The sun and the moon
There is a story about the sun and the moon. They were once lovers who became cursed.
Sole and Luna loved each other deeply. They spent every moment they could together.
One day a witch who was jealous of their love put a terrible curse on them. This curse would keep them apart forever.
Sole became the sun and Luna became the moon. One would live by day the other by night.
Luna the girl wanders the Earth during the day. Sole's rays keep her warm and to show his love for her he spreads beautiful colors of red and purple across the sky.
Sole the man wanders the Earth at night. Luna shows her love for him by giving him many twinkling lights that fill the sky so he can always find his way to her.
Only when one sets while the other rises are they together almost touching each other.
Once in a while they are aligned with each other and are together for a short while.
So this the way it has been for all time. You need not be sad for them though for they will always be linked together this way. Something the witch never counted on.
The little girl looked up at him then up at the star filled sky and thought for a moment. "So that's where they came from," she said with a smile completely satisfied with his answer.
"Aye granddaughter that's where they came from."
Gibbs put the flask up to his eye and peered in. Buggers the thing was empty again.
"Now then let's go back to house and git ye olde grandfather more drink shall we?"
The little girl giggled and took his hand. "Grandfather now tell me the story about the Captain again," she pleased with him as they headed for the house. "That one is my favorite."
