The God of Peace was very busy. He had to blow his trumpet all day long and didn't have time to look into the mirror.
The God of Peace's trumpet brought happiness to everyone. He did not have any time to look into the mirror and poured amazing water to the land. The water created lush mountains, made farming land fertile and grew flowers in the process.
The God of Peace was very busy. He did not have time to look into the mirror and gave names to everyone.
"Your name is Otto. Your name is Hans. Your name is Tomas."
"And your name is Johan."
Johan gave his hat to the God of Peace as an expression of thanks for giving him a name.
The God of Peace was very happy and wanted to see how he looked with the hat. That was when he first looked at himself in the mirror.
However, the reflection in the mirror was that of the devil.
The devil said, "You are me. And I am you."
The God of Peace thought, "What should I do? If this devil exists, everyone will not be able to live happily. What should I do? What should I do?"
The troubled God of Peace decided to...(point the gun at his forehead and shoot.)

A Deal, lets make a deal...
said the Devil.
“No, absolutely not” said the man with the big eyes.
“Sure, let’s make a deal” said the man with the big mouth.
The man with big mouth’s yard suddenly grew into a beautiful flower garden before his eyes.
The man with big eyes was so, so poor, and so, so hungry.
The man with the big mouth had fun every day. He ate the fruit that his garden grew. And the man with the big mouth never noticed. That his flowers were withering away. Once he did notice, it was too late.
In his garden that would never bloom another flower again, the man with the big mouth opened it wide and wailed over and over again.
I shouldn’t have made a deal with the devil.
The man with the big eyes was so hungry he was about to die. As big tears fell out of his big eyes, he wailed.
I should have made a deal with the devil.
A Deal, lets make A Deal...said the devil.

Once upon a time, there lived a nameless monster.
The monster was dying to have a name so badly.
So the monster decided to set out on a journey to find itself a name.
But the world was such a large place.
So the monster split into two and went on to two seperate journeys.
One went to the East and the other went to the west.
The monster that went to the east found a village.
There was a blacksmith at the village entrance.
"Mr.Blacksmith, please give me your name" said the monster.
"I can't give you my name" replied the blacksmith.
"If you give me your name I will jump inside you and make you stronger in return." said the monster.
"Really? I'll give you my name if you can make me stronger.", the blacksmith told the monster.
The monster jumped inside the blacksmith.
The monster became Otto the blacksmith.
Otto the blacksmith was the strongest man in the village.
But one day he said:
"Look at me! Look at me!"
"The monster inside of me has grown this big!"
*Chomp, chomp, munch, munch, gobble, gobble, gulp*
The hungry monster ate Otto from the inside out.
The monster then went back to become a monster without a name.
Even though he jumped inside Hans the shoemaker...
*Chomp, chomp, munch, munch, gobble, gobble, gulp*
He went back to being a monster without a name again.
Even though he jumped inside Thomas the hunter...
*Chomp, chomp, munch, munch, gobble, gobble, gulp*
He still went back to being a monster without a name.
The monster then went to a castle to find a wonderful name.
Inside the castle, there was a very sick boy.
"I'll make you stronger if you give me your name" said the monster
In reply, the boy told him "I'll give you my name if you can cure my illness and make me stronger."
So the monster jumped inside the boy.
The boy became very healthy.
The King was delighted.
"The prince is well! The prince is well!" said the King.
The monster became fond of the boy's name.
He also grew fond of his life inside the castle.
That's why he endured even when he became hungry.
Every day, even when his stomach became very empty, he endured.
But then he became so hungry...
"Look at me! Look at me!" said the boy.
"The monster inside of me has grown this big!"
The boy then ate his father, servants, and everyone.
*Chomp, chomp, munch, munch, gobble, gobble, gulp*
Because everyone was gone...
The boy left on a journey
He walked and walked for days...
One day the boy met the monster that went west
"I have a name" said the boy.
"It's a wonderful name."
And then the monster that went west said...
"I don't need a name."
"I'm happy even if I don't have a name."
"Because we're monsters without names"
The boy ate the monster that went west.
Even though he now had a name....
There was no one left to call him by his name.
And Johan was such a wonderful name, too.
