They were so proud of their feats, and built a stunning tower in celebration. This was the Tower of Babel, and was subsequently destroyed by cause of their own ego. After the Tower came crumbling down, so did the status of the world and the relationships of the ones in it … and a new era of miscommunications came forth.
