A long time ago, the moon and stars did not exist. There was no night. There was a man, who lived on the sun. He searched throughout the universe for his soul mate because he wanted to settle down with his one true love.
He decided that he would stop lighting the Earth below him. The man wanted to take a trip down to Earth and see if he could find a potential wife. When he took his first step onto the Earth, his home that was bright and lit up the entire sky died down. The fierce orange that blazed so bright had faded, and now there was nothing but a black, empty sky.
Since this was his first time away from his home, he had no idea what was happening. He was astonished at what had happened.
The man went across the world, looking and looking for the woman of his dreams. Many women had come up to him and offered themselves to him but none of them seemed right. He didn't feel that special connection with any of them.
He checked in every nook and cranny possible with no luck. Just as he was about to go home and give up, he looked up into the sky and saw a white glowing circle. He had never seen such a thing in the sky, there had never been anything but the sun and this new light.
The man immediately went back to the sky to see who had taken over his job to cast light over the world. He was outraged that someone would dare disrespect him like that and try to take over his important role.
When he arrived at the floating white object he noticed its unsmooth surface. It was nothing like his sun. Here, it was cold and darker than he was used to. The ground looked to have big holes; some so deep there seemed to be no end to it, but others were no more than a foot deep.
While looking around to find who was to blame for his sky glowing with another source of light, he saw the most stunning woman. He blinked a few times to make sure he was not seeing things.
The woman was beautiful. She had soft, pale skin. Her hair was silver, almost white. Her dress reached her feet, and clung onto her emphasizing her silhouette.
She smiled when she saw the man.
"I have been waiting for you for a long time now", she spoke to the man.
"Who are you?" he asked, in awe of the perfect woman standing before him.
"I am the moon, your true love. You have never seen me, because you have never stepped down from your sun. You have never given me the chance to show myself."
The man had finally found his match. He found the woman he had been searching for all of his life.
The sun and the moon quickly got married and had many kids. Their kids were the stars that littered the night sky. Every night, the sun god would step down from his sun and allow his wife and kids to take over his job of lighting up the sky.
That is how the sun, stars, and moon came to be.
