The introductory sentences of Prometheus - "A legend is [...] to end in the inexplicable." - actually belong to the story's end[1]. Maybe that makes it a little more clear?
But TBH, I don't find the original easy to understand. I mean, I /understand/ the words and everything, but I couldn't say for sure if I really understood what Kafka wanted to say, hence it's probably pointless trying to explain it (maybe as pointless as an eternal punishment by gods long forgotten) ;-)
