I'm so sorry the quality sucks. :/ Once I uploaded it on DeviantArt it just started to look like crap.


The text is from Edith Hamilton's Mythology.
It is from the myth of Phaethon.
From the Book:

This is one of Ovid's best stories, vividly told, details used not for mere decoration, but to heighten the effect.

"The palace of the Sun was a radiant place. It shone with gold and gleamed with ivory and sparkled with jewels. Everything without and within flashed and glowed and glittered. It was always high noon there. Shadowy twilight never dimmed the brightness. Darkness and night were unknown. Few among mortals could have long endured that unchanging brilliancy of light, but few had ever found their way thither."



Okay, a few things on this one.
Did it late at night, so there might be some spelling mistakes. D:
My photoshop also decided to give me some issues, so I had to screen shot each frame. Therefor, the image is uneven and tends to 'dance' around. Sorry. D;
