Atlantis

The lost city of Atlantis has always intrigued me.  I'd like to believe that it was a real place.  A place filled with a rich history, kings and queens, tons of gold and jewels, and magic.  Magic of course.  I mean, what kind of a city disappears into the ocean without a bit of magic?

According to several paleontologists and archaeologists, it is merely a myth.  A legend concocted by Plato to warn future generations about greed and sin.  If they get greedy and live sinful lives, then they too will slide into the ocean.  Hmm.....  Maybe, but the creative side of me doesn't agree.  I think it's down there somewhere.  Sitting on the bottom of the Atlantic ocean.  It may not even be in ruins, it could have inhabitants.  Fish-people and Mermaids might have taken over the city.  Oh yes, the possibilities!

The people of Atlantis are so dramatic!  The romance!  The sex!  Oh, it's such an amazing world to see.
