Ancient Tales; Second Edition, Volume 1
Preface
It's always difficult to know where to start when compiling a document like this. I am certainly not the first, and I will hopefully not be the last. Several ancient stories from “The Myths and Legends Project” by Alatharyael Nirees-Singreen and “Fables for Our Time” by Sudden Vertigo are included, as well as many others recently incorporated from the growing galactic community. Where possible, translations have been made to preserve the original meaning of the text, although footnotes are included otherwise.
It is not always clear what creates a tale. An event, taken and morphed, intentionally or unintentionally over time. Maybe more of them are true than we would think, although that truth is distorted as the story makes its way across this expansive galaxy. With so many points of origin and intersection, it is difficult to trace the narrative back to any one specific place or individual. But nevertheless, their story lives on, told in the words of those who are alive today.
