flower god in greek mythology

He knew that his name was Manzhushahua, he knew that he was the incarnation of this fiery red flower, and he knew that he was an elf.He knew it from birth, but such information was pitifully rare for him. He didn't know why he was here, nor did he know what this place was, why was he here?He couldn't remember which guy brought him here, time really didn't matter to him.However, he knew that there was a thing called a 'river' not far away, and the things flowing in the river were very scary, because he had seen that the river swelled and drowned many things, and those things never came back.He didn't know where the things in the river came from and where they went.But he vaguely remembered that there was an old man who walked from that river to wake him up.

The old man said that he was called "Manjushahua" and that he was unique in the world.The old man called himself "Chaos", and he said he could call him "Father God".He said that he has five children, and now his own strength is not enough, so he can only borrow his original body, which is this fiery red flower, to conceive a beautiful nymph. However, he did not expect that because his youngest His son Eros died because of the collapse of the power of the newly born world. Eros affected the power of flowers and bred himself as a "male". Therefore, Manjushahua is a "spirit".

At that time, Manzhushahua couldn't understand these words. He only remembered that the father God Chaos was a very serious and kind elder. However, Manzhushahua had a very natural closeness to him. He remembered that he didn't know how , took off the most beautiful flower among the blooming flowers, and offered it to God the Father.

"Oh, this is the first time I have received a gift." The Father God was obviously surprised. At that time, Manzhushahua remembered that he felt the joy of the Father God. Then, the Father God took out a very special thing , hesitated for a long time, and continued as if talking to himself, "Forget it, it's wrong to put this here. It can be seen that Gaia is not concerned with the overall situation. Okay, my child, leave this to me. You, remember, don't tell anyone...don't swallow this unless you're in serious trouble. My boy, this thing will protect you."

Manzhushahua remembered that he fell asleep soon afterwards, and when he woke up again, the father god had disappeared, leaving only a prismatic dark gold pendant on his neck.He didn't know what it was, he knew it was very important, but he couldn't take it off, so he took a petal from the fiery red flower and turned it into a long scarf to cover his neck.Manzhushahua has stayed here for many years. He has seen a woman pulling a strong man flying through the air. He knows that it is the night goddess Nyx and the dark god Erebus that the Father God said. , he could feel their strength, so whenever they flew over the flower field, he restrained his aura, trying not to attract their attention.However, it seems that they only have each other in their eyes, so they never found him.

As time goes by, the children of Nyx and Erebus are born one after another, and they often come here, some will admire it here, and some will come here to fold flowers if they are naughty, but even if there are people Folding flowers, Manzhushahua will not appear.He will hide deeply, of course, he has heard a lot of rumors in this way.Most of them are the discussions of the children of Nyx and Erebus, and what they say often makes Manzhushahua curious about the outside world. However, he also knows that he is not suitable to go out.Occasionally, he would see Nyx and Erebus going on a date in the flower field, after all, this is the only "stunning beauty" beside the dark river Styx.Whenever Nyx and Erebus came here, Manzhushahua would not dare to show one.However, through the dialogues of these gods, he knew everything in the world.

He knew that the end of the river Styx was where the Father was; He was born to be a companion; he knew that the Hemera he liked very much was the daughter of Nyx and Erebus...Of course, the one who appeared most often in the mouths of Nyx and Erebus was the god of the abyss, Tarta. Lowe's gone.Manjushahua knows this name, Father God mentioned it, saying that this God is His most perfect split creation.He is the world's first male deity other than God the Father.However, in the same world, Manjushahua has never seen him.

They say that Tartarus is the strongest among the "founding gods" conceived by the father; they say that Tartarus is the most indifferent among the founding gods; they say that Tartarus doesn't like anything...these The legend makes Manzhushahua both curious and afraid of Tartarus.He felt that he and Tartarus should have known each other for a long time, but he also knew that he had never seen this powerful male god.

He also knew Gaia, the goddess of the earth, from whom Uranus, Pontus, and Uriah sprang.Manzhushahua is not curious about Gaia, and he has never seen this powerful goddess, but he once heard Erebus tell Nyx that Gaia was related to the death of Eros, but , neither of them had evidence.And these gods didn't come every day, and he gradually figured out the regularity of Nyx, Erebus and their children coming to play.Therefore, Manzhushahua often sat on the top of the flower field when there were no gods visiting, looking at this empty place. Except for Chaos, he had never had contact with any gods.

"What's your name?" One day, Manzhushahua was sitting on the top of the flower field, bored, thinking whether he should try to leave the flower field to see this place called the Nether Realm, when he suddenly heard a cold and hoarse voice from a man. sound.

Manzhushahua turned his head away, he was a little stiff, had he been found after hiding for so long?He thought he would see one or a few of the gods who often visited the flower field, but what he saw was a stranger, a man in black robes, who was more beautiful than the ones he often saw. Nyx is even more beautiful.Manzhushahua felt very strange, because the first time he saw this person, he felt that the world seemed to light up.So, for the first time in his life, he had the urge to speak, but he didn't know what kind of voice he was speaking. He was afraid that he would scare this young-looking man, so he looked hesitantly at the man who appeared suddenly.

"Can't talk? I remember, you have been born for a long time?" The man actually flew up and sat on the top of the flower field.

"You..." Manzhushahua uttered a single tone, and then he found that speaking was not too difficult, so he asked, "How do you know?"

"You are the wisdom bred by this flower field, aren't you? I know you, this flower field was planted by Eros back then. Eros brought this plant back from the earth, saying that this plant is not suitable The earth. Eros is such a gentle child, it's a pity you haven't seen him before." The man in black said flatly.

"Are you an elf too?" Manzhushahua asked, he felt that this man had never been seen before, so it should not be a god.

"Elf? Is that what you call yourself? Then what should I call you?" The man asked a little curiously. He felt that he could smell a familiar breath on this strange creature.

"Manjushahua, you can call me Manjushahua. What about you?" Manjushahua asked the man curiously.

"Just call me 'Tal'." The man thought for a while and said.

The two "elves" who had just exchanged names stopped talking, and just looked at each other. For some reason, maybe it was too long alone, but Manzhushahua actually felt that it was good to have such a kind by his side.Of course, this is also because he is not deeply involved in the world, otherwise, he will know that this "elf" who calls himself "Tal" is not a creature like him at all, but a god like the god he often sees. characters.

Tal sat in the air for a long time, and the gorgeous blood-red flower sea below made him feel a little bit of interest, even from a distance, it was a bright color in this dark hell.That's why he was attracted and came over.He hasn't come out for a long time, and he has been shutting down in the Abyss Temple since Eros' death.I just came out today because I suddenly remembered something and wanted to tell Nix.But he never thought that he would meet such an interesting guy.That's right, Tal is the incarnation of the abyssal underworld - Tartarus.

He thought this strange male nymph, well, it was an elf.However, he looks really outstanding.And he is naturally suitable for red, Tartarus felt that he was a very special creature the moment he turned his head.Because he felt the breath of the Father God, but maybe he was thinking too much, the Father God has already slept forever at the end of the Styx, so how could he wake up?On the contrary, Tartarus felt that this flower field was too close to the river Styx, so it was accidentally infected with a little breath?It's not impossible either.

Many years later, when the two gods recalled the first time they met, they would always say that we were all so stupid back then.

However, at this time, the two of them sat quietly for a day until Tartarus was about to leave.He heard Manzhushahua's voice again——

"Are you going?"

"Yes, there are still some things to do. I will come to you next time, okay? You will be here, right?" Tartarus said.

"As long as there are no gods around, if there are, don't look for me..." Manjushahua said cautiously with a little fear.

When Tartarus heard this, he couldn't help being taken aback, and asked, "Are you afraid of them?"

"Yes," Manzhushahua said, "after all, they are gods. I can't resist their tearing and picking of me. Every flower is a part of me."

Tartarus was silent for a while, and said nothing more.

"This is for you." A beautiful bright red flower appeared in Manzhushahua's hand. He thought, the move that the Father God likes, I believe this elf also likes it.

Tartarus was very surprised, thinking, this is really a strange creature...

Seeing that the elf in black didn't respond, Manzhushahua pinned the red flower on his chest. He remembered secretly seeing Nyx, Erebus and their children often doing this, but never Pick his flowers with his permission to make your own decorations.

"It's really good." Manzhushahua said, he thought, this flower is different on this creature.

"Didn't you say that these flowers are part of you?" Tartarus looked at the color on his chest, and felt an unknown feeling in his heart.

"You are my friend, we are all elves, aren't we?" Manzhushahua said with a slight smile, "What I gave you is the only one I have."

Although Tartarus felt that he seemed to have misunderstood, the word "friend" made him keep silent about the misunderstanding, thinking that it was harmless.But he thought about it and said, "I like it very much."

Manjushahua nodded, but didn't ask him to return the gift.He just smiled more happily, and said: "I knew you would like it." Then he imitated the etiquette that Chaos gave him before leaving, waved to Tartarus, said: "Goodbye." Then he turned and disappeared Into the flower field.

Tartarus looked at the beautiful flower fields beside the Styx, and felt something was different.Little did he know, there was a happy smile on his lips when he turned around.Rubbing the bright red flowers on his chest with his fingers, he thought, maybe, when he visited Nyx and Erebus this time, he could tell them that he liked this flower field very much, so he decided to keep it as his own.In this case, I believe that the second-generation gods from Nyx and Erebus would not dare to pick it again, after all, the underworld under his feet is part of him.Therefore, everything that grows on the Netherland should be protected by oneself.

Being able to easily please a god is indeed a very difficult skill, isn't it?
