Answer: Centaurs

Explanation:

Kinnaras, another half-man, half-horse mythical creature from Indian mythology, appeared in various ancient texts, arts, and sculptures from all around India. It is shown as a horse with the torso of a man where the horse's head would be, and is similar to a Greek centaur.

It comes from the ancient Greek word kentauros, which is sometimes considered to literally mean ‘bull-killer.’ According to the Greek mythology, there was a whole race of them, usually described as ferocious and with somewhat beastly and uncivilized appetites. Chiron was unique case: he was Cronus’ son, wise and just, and had taught a lot of Greek heroes like Achilles and Jason.

You woke up at night and saw a house in fire describe what happened next.
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

You woke up at night and saw a house on fire....:

One day I had decided to take off from school to prepare for my Board examination. My mother went out as I was there to take care of my little sister. I was studying and my sister was sleeping. Suddenly I noticed it was past eight in the night and my mom was not back home. It was raining very heavily. My mom rang up to say that she was in her friends’ house as the roads were flooded and she would return as soon as the rain stopped.  

I told her to be safe and I would take care of my sister and she could come the next day morning. Giving assurance I gave dinner to my sister and after locking the house both of us went to sleep. Suddenly, I heard a terrible noise outside. I was scared but nonetheless I opened the window and saw that there was a fire in the opposite building. There was chaos all around.  

The rain had stopped but there was heavy wind blowing. Due to the rains, the transformer which was in front of the building had caught fire and because of the wind, it spread quickly to the trees beside and into the building wires. The transformer burst and the people of the building were stranded. We called the fire service. We started pouring water and as there was a construction site besides, we tried to take sand and pour it but due to rain, the sand was all wet and so it was of no use.  

Luckily, we had a big hose and we tried to blow out the fire with the help of water through the hose. It was a good try but not enough for the huge fire. The fire service people came and started their work and it took about one hour to put off the fire completely. They were able to escort the residents safely outside the building as the fire had started in the terrace area. So, the residents were taken out safely and we let them stay at our houses for the night as some damages had taken place.
