A Chinese Myth (神话): Houyi and the Suns
Long, long ago, there were ten sun birds. Every morning, one of them would rise
from a resting place near the eastern sea and fly across the sky.
But one day they decided to fly at the same time. It was terrible. Lakes and rivers
dried up, and fires started. People and animals suffered a lot from the heat. The
emperor asked Dijun, father of the sun birds, for help. Dijun asked Houyi, the God of
Archery, to frighten his sons. Houyi tried to frighten the sun birds but they just
laughed at him. So he shot and killed nine of the birds.
Houyi became a hero, but he could not get back into heaven because of Dijun's
anger at him.
