Made this post so everyone could share different myth of their culture. Beside the famous greek, hindu, norse, chinese, bible mythology. I would like to see the myth of other country too.
Not stricly god, just some historic figgure with their story have a bit of magic in them, kinda like fate.
I'll go first( sorry if my story telling skill suck) the story take place during a invasion of Vietnam.
In a far away village, a lady was known for her kindness. One day when she was walking outside the village she found a giant footprint, she step her foot inside to measure the footprint and when returned to the village, she found out that she was pregnant somehow. 12 month later, she gave birth to a beautifull child she Named Gióng. But weirdly, for 3 year Gióng did not talk or walk.
During this time, Vietnam was being invaded. So the king sent out messengers to recruit talented people.
Hearing that the country was in danger, Gióng spoke for the first time. He wish to talk with the messenger, at first the messenger was very skeptical but Gióng convice that he could defeat the invading force provided he was given 3 things.
After telling the messenger, he chose to belive in this child and went back to tell the king. when the king heard that he order his best blacksmith to create the 3 things the boy asked for. With 50 pounds of iron, first was a metal staff , seccond was a metal armor and third was a 18 feet tall metal horse.
Back at the village, the boy was eating ton and tons of food brought by the villager. When the boy finish eating, he stand up and transformed form a boy to a giant muscular man.
The king and everyone else was stunded to see the boy grow so quick.
He put on his armor and hop on the metal horse with ease. As he get on the horse, it became alive. And with speed so fast he could get to where the the enemy was in a flash.
He stand tell on top of a hill, facing thousands of enemy. He quickly anoucing himself to the enemy then begin to charge at them.
His swung from the staff was so hard, it break the armor of his enemy, the horse that came to life started breathing fire at the enemy too.
But there was too many, at one point his metal staff was breaks. Looking around, Gióng found a bamboo tree and so he plucked them up and proced to beat all the invader to death with it.
Afterward, Gióng was victorious. He then go to the nearby mountain call Sóc Sơn, reaching the top of the mountain he take off his armor and ride his horse to the sky.
(This story is the version that knew growing up to, other region of Vietnam may have diffirent version.)
