Tale of Dracaena

Once upon a time, that was a man who was butcher. He lived in a house which was by pagoda. Everyday, a young monk was responsible for ringing the bell to hint monks got up and prayed. That time was also the time when the butcher got up, killed a pig. Day by day, the butcher accustomed to the bell then whenever the bell rang, he always got up to do his work.
One night, while an old monk was sleeping, a poor woman and five children appeared in his dream. They came front his face and knelt down.
“Please, save our lives! Save our lives”, said the woman.
The monk didn’t know what happened. He said:
“How can I save your lives.”
“Tomorrow, you only need ring the bell lately that will save our lives”, said the woman
The monk didn’t understand but he had no chance to ask the woman. The woman disappeared after saying. Although he didn’t understand he followed the woman’s works he didn’t request the young monk to ring the bell.
About the butcher, he didn’t listen the ring so he had slept until the sun rose so hight. That was too late to butcher a pig. He was so angry that he sprinted to the pagoda, blamed for monks. Then the old monk said him about his strange dream.
The butcher didn’t believe his story but when he had landed his feet the pigsty he saw the pig he had bought to butcher had born five piglets.
Yes, the butcher now understood what the monk had said. He saw his hands the hands had killed so many lives. He felt so sorry that made him bring his knife, sprinted to the pagoda to apologize. He punctured his knife down the front yard of agoda and promised that he would never kill another pig.
Nobody knew what happened with the butcher after that but his knife transformed into a tree with red leaves. People now day call Dracaena.
The end.🎭🎭🎭

Gorgon

In Greek mythology, a Gorgon  is a mythical creature portrayed in ancient Greek literature. While descriptions of Gorgons vary across Greek literature and occur in the earliest examples of Greek literature, the term commonly refers to any of three sisters who had hair made of living, venomous snakes, as well as a horrifying visage that turned those who beheld her to stone. Traditionally, while two of the Gorgons were immortal, Stheno and Euryale, their sister Medusa was not and she was slain by the demigod and hero Perseus. The large Gorgon eyes, as well as Athena 's "flashing" eyes, are symbols termed "the divine eyes" by Gimbutas (who did not originate the perception); they appear also in Athena's sacred bird, the owl. They may be represented by spirals, wheels, concentric circles, swastikas, firewheels, and other images. Anyone who would gaze into their eyes would be turned to stone instantly.

Scylla And Nisus

MINOS was the first king to control the Mediterranean Sea, which he cleared of pirates, and in Crete ruled over ninety cities. When the Athenians had murdered his son Androgeus, he decided to take vengeance on them, and sailed around the Aegean collecting ships and armed levies. Some islanders agreed to help him, some refused. Siphnos yielded to him by the Princess Arne, whom he bribed with gold; the gods changed her into a jackdaw which loves gold and all things that glitter. He made an alliance with the people of Anaphe, but rebuffed by King Aeacus of Aegina and departed, swearing revenge. Aeacus then answered an appeal from Cephalus to join the Athenians against Minos . b. Meanwhile, Minos was partying the Isthmus of Corinth. He laid siege to Nisa, ruled by Nisus the Egyptian, who had a daughter name Scylla. A tower stood in the city, built by Apollo [and Poseidon ?], an at its foot lay a musical stone which, if pebbles were dropped upon from above, rang like a lyre-because Ap...

Sisyphus

SISYPHUS, son of Aeolus, married Atlas ’s daughter Merope, the Pleiad, who bore him Glaucus , Ornytion , and Sinon, and owned a fine herd of cattle on the Isthmus of Corinth. b. Near him lived Autolycus , son of Chione , whose twin-brother Philammon was begotten by Apollo , though Autolycus himself claimed Hermes as his father. c. Now, Autolycus was a past master in theft, Hermes having given him the power of metamorphosing whatever beasts he stole, from horned to unhorned, or from black to white, and contrariwise. Thus although Sisyphus noticed that his own herds grew steadily smaller while those of Autolycus increased, he was unable at first to accuse him of theft; and therefore, one day, engraved the inside of all his cattle’s hooves with the monogram SS or, some say, with the words ‘Stolen by Autolycus’. That night Autolycus helped himself as usually and at dawn hoof-prints along the road provided Sisyphus with sufficient evidence to summon neighbours in witness of the th...
