They continue to explain that Mother nature were watching them argue as she was disappointed. She then made an idea that would help them balance each other out, which is to create two new Gods to give them a way to distract each other from fighting again. Also to keep them busy so they cannot take a break. Mother nature then created Thunder God and Lighting God. She decided that Thunder God would be working with Rain God since she based Thunder off of him. Also that Lighting would be assisting Sun since she was based off her. They were to be punishments to the Gurgulas if they had done very insightful bad things. Sun and Rain both looked at each as they had disappointed Mother nature. They forgave each other and realized they had probably scared the Gurgulas on earth. They both decided to visit then earth to introduce, the new Gods whom they would be worshipping too.

Gaea told her children, who ever chooses to kill there father get the title lord of the universe and also free his siblings. Cronus said he would, but his father fled before he got the chance.

Not only that but that when the chief’s daughter fell ill the Sky People dug up a tree and laid the girl next to the hole that remained. When they laid her next to the hole she fell through the hole where two swans caught her. Then they put her on The Great Turtle’s back and it counseled that she was a symbol of good fortune. The Great Turtle sent all the other animals to bring the Sky World tree back with earth covered roots. Many animals tried but failed, coming back to exhausted and died. Finally an elderly woman toad had just enough energy left to spit a mouthful of earth onto the back of The Great Turtle. The earth was magical therefore it grew and grew enough for the Sky woman to live on. The swans circled enough till it grew in to the land mass it is today. But it was dark so The Great Turtle called the animals to put a great light into the sky. A little turtle climbed into a black cloud collecting lightning as she went. She made a big bright ball called the sun and a smaller ball called the moon. Then The Great Turtle commanded the animals to make holes in the comers in the sky so the sun and moon could go down as one when up as they circled.

Both Kojiki and Greek mythologies describe common belief in the creation of the world, in which gods give birth to another to form the world. In Kojiki, two of the seven gods who came into existence, Izanagi and Izanami give birth to many nature deities, creating the world. But because Izanami gives birth to too many deities, she dies while giving birth to the fire deity. In result of her death, enraged Izanagi kills the fire deity. In contrast, Greek myth describes the creation of the world with the four gods who came to existences, Gaea (earth) Chaos, Tartarus (Hell), and then Eros. Gaea asexually gives birth to Uranus (Sky) and marries her son. She then bears three types of gods; the Titans, the Cyclopes, and the Hecathonchires. However, Uranus repels at the monstrous creatures and sends Cyclopes and Hecatonchires down to Tartarus (Hell). Frustrated by Uranus’s action, Gaea forges the first sickle, gives it to her youngest son Cronos, and have him punish his father, Uranus. Once Uranus returns to make love to Gaea, Cronos emasculates him. Here we see the similarities in the creation of the world by birth and death of God by the hands of another god with fury.

A muddy sea that covered the earth was created, and from the sea grew a single green shoot, growing until it reached the clouds and transformed into a god.

When he pulled it up, muddy clumps fell back into the ocean.

There was a point in time where no human or god had walked the surface of the earth. Until where the land met the sea, a mare was born. She was made of white sea-foam and her name was Eiocha. Somewhere nearby a oak tree grew tall and strong. The oak tree provided seeds and berries for Eiocha. Eiocha kept eating the seeds and berries until one day she gave birth to a god. The god's name was Cernunnos. When Eiocha gave birth to Cernunnos the pain was so great that she stripped the bark of the tree and threw it into the ocean. The bark was transformed by the sea and became the giants of the deep.
The traditional legend begins with Rangi (the sky father) and Papa (the earth mother) uniting to give birth to numerous offspring: gods of the sea, forest, wind, wild food, planted food, and mankind.5 Once born, the children constantly quarreled with one another in the darkness and finally decided to separate their parents to create light. The god of the wind, opposed to the idea, fled to the sky where his anger manifested into thunder and lightening. Disregarding his brother’s opinion, the god of the forest successfully separated his parents’ loving embrace. The disconnection enabled life to flourish and thrive throughout the land. Unfortunately, Rangi and Papa were forever separated. Rangi’s constant flow of tears filled the oceans and lakes. To this day, many Maori believe that Rangi and Papa’s infinite sorrow is responsible for the dew, mist and rain.5
