Madness Fell

They reached the highest peaks of the highest mountains, seeing marvels of no measure in gods' abodes, that drifted above the clouds! "We are now like you," "We don't need you" they scorned the gods. We don't need to look above, and kneel before you any more... The gods were angry for being demeaned by their children - their own creations. Madness fell down upon the mortals on the highest peaks of the highest mountains, making them to return at the mountains' feet, and hide in the forest and holes... The gods could not be reached anymore...they were far beyond the stars!
