After the Great Flood, a stranger from the east
landed on Mexico's shores riding on a boat with no paddles,
said to be carried by serpents. His name was Quetzalcoatl, meaning, "the feathered serpent." He and his followers taught the locals
how to grow crops and domesticate animals. He gave them laws and instructed them in the ways
of architecture, astronomy and the arts. They worshipped him as a deity. But after being violently ousted
by the followers of a Mexican war god, Quetzalcoatl sailed away towards the east,
promising one day to return
