The sun and moon were sisters. They used to live in harmony and bliss, with Mother Universe. It was just the three of them, living happily in the heavens.

Sun and moon enjoyed each other's company. They would frolic and play for hours, dancing through the skies. Mother Universe smiled at her only children.

But one day, sun and moon got into an argument. They decided not o speak to each other again. Mother Universe was very saddened by this, but soon came up with an idea. Why not make more playmates for her children?

So she set to work. It took her hundreds of years, during which sun and moon still refused to speak to each other. Finally, Mother Universe completed her task, and sent out her new children, whom she called stars, to frolic and play with sun and moon. But still they refused to speak to each other.

It had gotten so bad, they had even decided that they would not move. The only time they would play with the stars was when the stars got close to them. They might smile a bit, but when the star got tired or bored and drifted away, both sun and moon slunk back into their dark abyss of quiet.

Mother Universe grieved for her children. She decided that it was not enough for her children to have playmates, they must have a place to play also. So in another hundred years, she completed the planets.

Hope rang through her. She knew that her children could not refuse a chance to explore something new. But alas, her children had been at it far to long.

Deciding to learn the truth, Mother Universe soon found out from the stars that the argument was started by moon. Infuriated that her normally good child was the start of the whole predicament, Mother Universe banished sun and moon both to a planet she called Earth.

They both left unwillingly. Because if her naughtiness, moon must always be in her sister's shadow.

Sun and moon were to orbit Earth, very rarely to cross paths, until the day that they could learn to get along.
