Pride & Prejudice
The proud mountain enthroned in majesty challenged the ocean to scale his height His titanic peaks are the gateway to heaven through them he shows his might. The ocean enraged by this audacity proclaimed "I can drown you to my depths" "If I unleash my true form" "Nothing in this world would be left." "My landslides can cause unfathomable destruction If once I show my fury." "Yet, my beauty shines through my glorious peaks when the sun comes out with glory." The ocean answered in strong rebuke "I can engulf the earth as a whole." "Yet, my vastness undefined by the horizon can touch every living soul." The sun was smiling all the while to see both of them swell in pride In quiet retort, the sun replied "Without me you both would have died." All of your beauty and might would disappear if I choose to play the mounts would be bare and the ocean bland If I refuse to shine in the day. ...and so the undeclared war escalated nature reluctantly chose their sides but humans waited to keep out of harm's way forcing their real intention to hide. the war ended in absolute stalemate the mount was reduced to a rubble the ocean was forced a quiet retreat and the sun was nobody's trouble. but from the carnage emerged the age of man whose empire was built in the heart of mount the ocean was tattered to pieces in islands too numerous to count. ........... Thus great nations carve their history through countless fights and wars only to be conquered by smaller rogue-nations who feeds viciously on their scars. eons passes,but history remains the same as rogue-nations open their hungry jaws for it is their considered opinion that the conflict is good for their cause.
