Alright class, today we are going to touch onto how it all began. I know that you already cover the subject, but let me go over this one more time.
In the beginning there was nothing, nothing but emptyness. There was no beginning, no end. Only darkness, no life. But then our Lord and saviour was born in a flash of light. He saw this empty space, and felt the need to change it. So he started working.
On the first day he created the sun, the moon, the stars.
On the second day, he created the world we live on
On the third day, he created the mountains
On the fourth day, the seas
On the fifth day, he created the sky
On the sixth day, he filled it up with plants.
And can someone tell me what he did on the seventh day?
Tobias?
Tobias's reply
He did nothing, on the seventh day. This is also known as a day of rest and worship.
But after the day of rest, he created the animals and the humans out of clay into his own image. He gifted us the gift of thought, so that we can make our own decisions.
That is correct, well done. Sooo....
Tobias's interruption
But Sir, there is something bothering me. In one of the books that I read the other day said something about Old Gods, Zeus, Poseidon, Persephone, Hades. But if our is the one and only God, then why does that book say that there are other older Gods?
Where did you find that book?
Tobias's reply
One of the uncles gave it to me.
Tobias's reply
I do not remember his name, or how he looked like. I am sorry sir, did I say something wrong. I have the book right here.
Yes, Tobias, you said something wrong. Those stories are just myths and legends. Our God is the one and only. Give that book to me and I will burn it so that it doesn't confuse your brothers. And do not worry about that Uncle, I will find him, and he will pay for his sins.

So that is another one educated.
Eris
Educated, sorry cousin but you did my job instead of yours. You gave that kid a book with our history, you know that people get burned alive for being touched by us.
Athena
You might be right about that, but I needed to try.
Eris
I don't get me wrong, cousin. I love chaos, it is really my gem. And your method is less destructive as the flowers Aphrodite planted. You simply disguise yourself like a monk, give one of their precious students a book. A book of all things. But next time leave the chaos to me.
