These two stories each tell about a righteous hero who is told by the deities that a massive flood will overtake the earth.

1,136 words... ld explain everything to me - who I was; what was the purpose of life; what was the reality and what would be the reality; and where I came from - I realized that this was the true religion; religion not in the sense the West understands it, not the type for only your old age.
