LEGENDS OF THE FALL
2: One legend says that the Greek gods gave this woman a box containing all of the evils of the world as punishment for Prometheus giving mankind fire.
4: In the Chi-King, an ancient volume from this country, man was undone by a thirst for knowledge and the seduction of a woman.
6: This book differs from Genesis in that Iblis, also known as Shaitan, deceives Adam into eating the forbidden fruit.
8: In this religion named for a Persian philosopher, Ahriman – the destructive spirit – gave the first humans fruit of a tree which imparted both immortality and evil thoughts.
10: On this day, Yggdrasil will fall and everything – gods, men, animals, and giants – will be destroyed.
MOONS
3: Color of the title dolphins in the children's novel by Scott O'Dell.
6: Animal name which, along with the number 359, is given to a red giant star near Earth in the constellation Leo.
9: Native to the Caspian and Black Seas, the beluga is one of the largest types of this fish.
12: Seven-letter word for the farming activity performed by a combine.
