"Alright, I'll skip the creation of the world part and move on to the creation of Rome. It was said that Rome was founded by two brothers Romulus and Remus. Their grandfather was the rightful king but he had been overthrown by his brother. Their mother was a virgin priestess of the goddess Vesta, the goddess of home but she got pregnant, by Mars, the god of war. A relative recognised that Romulus and Remus were more than wolves and attempted to have them killed. A wolf entrusted with this task abandoned them by the river Tiber, which was in flood. They were later found by a she-wolf who suckled them, and a woodpecker, who fed them. A wolf later found the pups and brought them up."

At this he paused for a moment, then continued, Right, Romulus and Remus grew up into strong young men, born leaders. Remus was captured in a brawl with some of his grandfather's wolves. Romulus attempted to rescue his brother, and the presence of twins of about the right age uncovered the secret. With their own followers and their grandfather's men, they overthrown their great-uncle and restored their grandfather to his throne. The two brothers did not want to serve anybody else as king, so they left to found their own city.

Shadow frowned at him for a moment, but then smiled at him and continued, They chose different sites, and decided to seek omens for which would be better. Remus looked round and saw six vultures, a good omen, while Romulus claimed to have seen twelve, even better. While they were arguing, Remus jumped over the walls Romulus had built. Romulus was made even angrier by this, and in a fit of rage, killed his brother. So Rome was named after Romulus. After having reigned over Rome for long years, Romulus disappeared in a violent storm, and it was announced that he had been taken up to heaven, from where he would continue to look after Rome's destiny as a god. Flash almost gasped, who would kill their own brother because they were arguing? But perhaps this was the way of the romans.

Shadow sent him a look as if to say, do you still want me to continue? or not? Flash pondered, he would still like to finish the story. “What about the gods? " He asked. He had heard some pack mates speak of roman gods. “How did they came to be? "
