Morpheus (The son of Hypnos) was wondering what these bright pictures were when we go to sleep. So he wanted to make a flower that could make him go to sleep, so he made one that was purple and black. But later on, he wanted one that made him go to sleep and that makes dreams. So he made one that was purple, black, and red. So he decided to name it lotus. And so he planted the flower in Libya. And the so many flowers grew in the land. And the people slept all the time there except when they were picking the flowers. When Ulysses and his men were sleeping, some of the men had nightmares so Ulysses had to put all the men from the beach back to the ship so that they don’t get anymore nightmares
