One day, he was so curious as to how the Sun managed to have so much bright light that he made an effort to waylay him. Unfortunately, when the Sun's light passed him by, he was blinded by it and he hurtled across the Sun's path. Like a comet, Asturiel traveled across the sky like a top out of control. "It is bad enough that sometimes Moon goes out of her way to block my path and obscure me, but to have this runt came tumbling down, that I cannot tolerate anymore!" complained the Sun to the Imperial Court of the Heavenly Bodies.
