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
