Atlantis (in Greek, Ἀτλαντὶς νῆσος, "island of Atlas") is a legendary island first mentioned in Plato's dialogues Timaeus and Critias, written about 360 BC.
According to Plato, Atlantis was a naval power lying "in front of the Pillars of Hercules" that conquered many parts of Western Europe and Africa 9,000 years before the time of Solon, or approximately 9600 BC. After a failed attempt to invade Athens, Atlantis sank into the ocean "in a single day and night of misfortune".
Scholars dispute whether and how much Plato's story or account was inspired by older traditions. In Critias, Plato claims that his accounts of ancient Athens and Atlantis stem from a visit to Egypt by the legendary Athenian lawgiver Solon in the 6th century BC. In Egypt, Solon met a priest of Sais, who translated the history of ancient Athens and Atlantis, recorded on papyri in Egyptian hieroglyphs, into Greek. Some scholars argue Plato drew upon memories of past events such as the Thera eruption or the Trojan War, while others insist that he took inspiration from contemporary events like the destruction of Helike in 373 BC or the failed Athenian invasion of Sicily in 415–413 BC.

Genres: Drama,Do you see what i see?
The fire's announcing a wicked prophecy
Something we cannot hide
Something we cannot escape to...
...see what the god's doom brings
A new reality
A way to show us their anger
About all our greed
Keeper of the sacred script
Brought us some strange feelings
Something wicked, wicked this way comes
Do you feel what i feel?
I'm sure there will be no tomorrow
A punishment for our land
Nothing but an harvest of...
...sorrow with no regrets
For the lives of those who'll be taken
But we all shall rise again
Our believes will be not forsaken
