  • The Star Seeker’s Quest

    The Star Seeker’s Quest

    Once upon a time, in a world far beyond our own, there lived a young girl named Maya. Maya was a dreamer, always gazing up at the night sky, fascinated by the stars that twinkled above. Her heart longed to explore the vast unknown, to discover the secrets that lay among the celestial wonders.

    One fateful night, as Maya lay beneath a blanket of stars, a shooting star streaked across the sky, illuminating her with its radiant light. Inspired by this cosmic spectacle, Maya made a solemn vow. She would become a Star Seeker, a brave adventurer who would journey through the cosmos to uncover its mysteries.

    Armed with her determination and an ancient star map, Maya embarked on her quest. Along her journey, she encountered an unexpected companion—a mischievous but lovable space creature named Nova. Together, they traversed galaxies, hopping from one sparkling star to another, their friendship growing with each cosmic leap.

    As they ventured deeper into the cosmos, Maya and Nova encountered celestial beings who possessed incredible powers. They met Lumina, the Guardian of Light, who shared her wisdom and taught them how to harness the energy of stars. They crossed paths with Orion, the Protector of Constellations, who guided them through treacherous asteroid fields.

    With each encounter, Maya’s understanding of the universe expanded, and she grew more adept at navigating the vastness of space. Along the way, she learned that true power lay not only in the celestial wonders but also within herself. She discovered her own inner light, a force that could illuminate the darkest corners of the cosmos.

    Finally, after countless adventures and trials, Maya and Nova reached the edge of the universe. They stood before a brilliant, shimmering cosmic gate—the threshold to the unknown. Maya’s heart swelled with a mixture of anticipation and awe as she took a step forward, ready to unveil the greatest secrets of the universe.

    As she crossed the threshold, Maya discovered that the ultimate secret was not a tangible revelation but the realization that the journey itself was the greatest reward. The stars had been her guides, teaching her about courage, friendship, and the boundless wonders of the universe.

    With newfound wisdom, Maya returned to her world, carrying the light of the stars within her. She shared her tales of adventure, inspiring others to embark on their own quests of self-discovery and to seek the magic that resides both within and beyond the night sky. And though Maya’s journey had come to an end, her spirit of adventure and her love for the stars would forever shine on.

    “Evermore’s Dreamweaver: Luna’s Tale of Courage and Wonder”

    “Once upon a time, in the bustling city of Arcadia, there lived a young girl named Luna. Luna was an ordinary girl with an extraordinary imagination. She had a deep love for books and would spend hours immersed in fantastical tales, dreaming of magical lands and daring adventures.

    One day, as Luna wandered through a dusty old bookstore, she stumbled upon a peculiar book tucked away on the highest shelf. The book had no title, but its pages shimmered with an ethereal glow. Curiosity tugging at her heart, Luna reached for it and began to read.

    To her astonishment, the words on the pages came to life before her eyes. The story whisked her away to a land called Evermore, where talking animals roamed lush forests and floating islands dotted the sky. Luna found herself at the center of an ancient prophecy, destined to save Evermore from a looming darkness.

    Guided by a wise owl named Oliver, Luna embarked on a quest to gather the lost fragments of the Celestial Key. This enchanted key held the power to seal away the darkness and restore balance to Evermore. Along her journey, Luna encountered whimsical creatures like mischievous pixies, gentle giants, and noble unicorns.

    As Luna faced trials and challenges, she discovered her own hidden strengths and bravery. She formed deep friendships with the inhabitants of Evermore, who taught her the value of loyalty, kindness, and believing in oneself.

    In her final test, Luna confronted the malevolent Shadow Sorcerer, the embodiment of the darkness that threatened Evermore. With her companions by her side and the Celestial Key in hand, Luna summoned the courage to face her fears.

    In a climactic battle, Luna’s unwavering belief in the power of love and hope unleashed a brilliant light that banished the darkness. Evermore was saved, and Luna returned to Arcadia, forever changed by her extraordinary adventure.

    Word of Luna’s incredible journey spread, and soon children from all around the world began to dream of their own magical quests. Luna became an inspiration, reminding everyone that the power to create magic and change the world lies within each and every one of us.

    And so, as Luna closed the book, she smiled, knowing that the magic of Evermore would forever live within her heart, ready to ignite the imaginations of those who dared to dream”.

  • Mauve

    There are three things you need to know before you read this. One, I kill people for a living. Two, magic is real. And three? This is the story of how I screwed up. Royally. Now, how does one tell a well-structured story when life is absolute chaos?

    Once upon a time, in a far, far away land hidden away from mortals, lived the communities of the magical. You had your usual- the werewolves, the vampires, the faeries, the merfolk and the witches (although really we prefer the term ‘wizards’.) The communities were all bound to the Alliance, a constitution of sorts to ensure peace among all and was treated with respect. It wasn’t unusual for these communities to fight, for peace can never be constant, but in the end the Alliance was always the end say. And so, all communities lived in harmony. Well. Until I made a teensy-weensy little mistake. Miniscule, really. My community- the magical aka the witches, wizards, sorcerers, casters, all synonymous, have a community not far off from Harry Potter. Our community was divided into territories and mine was Mauve. It was a beautiful place where every wizard or caster was trained in all- potions, healing, defense and basic magic. I happened to be part of the police. A task force which specialized in hunting down those who seeked to harm the Alliance or use magic to break the Code of The Casters. Not to brag or anything, but my team was the best.  Well known fact, actually. Well, only to those on a need to know basis, cause technically we don’t exist and all. Our last mission was simple enough. Hunt down the doofus trying to sell out sensitive wizarding information to other communities and stop end him. Pretty easy, right? And it so happened that this guy was supposed to be at the Annual Alliance Event where all the communities mingle once a year and make nice. So kill him and then party all night. Done. Except..not really.

    Now to the present. My team consisting of 4 other people – Nico, Para, Livia, Lydia and I arrived at our location, the hotel hosting the event this year- The Santosiran, located in neutral territory, and one of the places with the best security. We started to mingle, blending in with the crowd as normal guests when our target walks in. I cracked my neck and calmed my mind as I began to focus. The target was a man of Asian heritage around 5’8, with a slim build and dyed blond hair.  He headed up to the open bar and took a seat beside the other two occupants. I slowly started walking towards the target, headed to the bar to get a drink and sent a discreet nod to my second, Nico to be ready to get this guy out of here without causing a scene..until my magic pulled in my chest causing me to stop. All of a sudden, it seemed to swirl in front me, moving in a physical form like never before. My eyes narrowed. I’d seen those swirls somewhere, I just couldn’t seem to place where.  One of the other people at the bar, a man, sitting right next to my target snapped his head up and our eyes connected. Well damn. If it wasn’t the most attractive looking guy I’ve ever seen in my life. Dark hair, a perfectly shaped nose, a sharp jawline and beautiful, dark eyes…which were glowing. Wolf. My head tilted. I could see my magic swirling around him. It was like nothing I’d never seen before. It swirled around him in shimmers of gold, but before I could analyse why my magic seemed to be tugging itself towards this man, he shot out of his seat and walked towards me and said the words every single Wattpad book werewolf female lead was confused the shit out by- “Mate.” Shit. Now, now, I know what you’re thinking. So you’re mated to a hot guy. What’s the problem? The problem was that the second my “mate” touched me, my magic shot out towards him. Years of training made my body move on reflex, and I managed to shove myself away from hot werewolf mate boy, only for my magic to wrap around us both ,pulling us together like we were magnets. The force of the magic seemed to crash into the both of us, blasting us into a wall and bathing the room with a  bright light. Arms banded around me as the force of it caused us both to crash to the floor and I groaned at both the fall and the feeling of something pushing against my chest. Hard. I looked down just in time to see the golden magic disappear into me. The guy below me groaned and then suddenly the feeling of this man, his entire presence around me seemed to intensify, as if my soul, my magic itself seemed to personally connect me to him.  Mate boy pulled us up and I turned , ready to push him away before I combusted from the pull he was causing when I looked into his eyes. They were glowing golden, different from the usual werewolf silver, and then it clicked. The golden magic? That was the beginning of the creation of a soul bond.  Soul bonds were sacred and only ever done within the wizarding community. It was magic of the deepest kind and rarely practiced anymore. And me? I just broke about three different rules for sure. So not only was I mated to this guy but I was also soul bonded to him. Plus, my target with super sensitive information that is probably going to be sold tonight got away, and I had just caused a scene, making myself the center of attention, when I should barely be existing. Shit.

  • JAFRATUS AND ME

    JAFRATUS AND ME

    And all of a sudden, the room was filled with tiny droplets of water, only to realize that they were teardrops of actual humans. I looked at the ceiling and saw Jafratus sticking to the roof, crying silently. I couldn’t help but fly toward him, so I did and kept my hand on his head and asked what was wrong. The moment I touched Jafratus, he vanished away. I looked for him everywhere but couldn’t find him. Knowing he had gone forever was gut-wrenching, but I didn’t want to give up. I flew to Lady Orion Lake.

    It all started that day when I was chasing a kidnapper near Lady Orion Lake. He kidnapped my grandmother for powers since she was half-mortal and had the powers of a god, and sacrificing her to a deity would make the kidnapper receive all her powers as he who sacrifices her acquires all her might. I was seven back then and had no idea what was going on. I just saw someone maltreating my grandmother, and I got scared, so I screamed so loudly and fiercely that fire came out of my throat. I couldn’t comprehend that I could emit fire, but I seized that opportunity and burnt them. They were all perplexed about how a child could make fire, but they were so petrified to retaliate that they ran away. My grandmother came towards me and hugged me tightly and wept. She was crying not because she was being kidnapped but because the time had come when I was to be taught about the powers that I possess.

    While making supper, my grandmother told me that my father used to be a dragon slayer when he met my mother, who was half mortal and half dragon. She had a magical persona that bewitched my father, and that’s how I was born. I was astonished but also shocked to hear all of that. It was too much to gather. I composed myself and asked Grandma, “Granny, am I a dragon?”

    Grandma laughed and ruffled my hair. She said, “Son, you’re a beautiful human being who possesses powers that of a dragon, but you must know that great power comes with great responsibility, so you must never use these precious powers against the weak people or those who are harmless.”

    I nodded and smiled. I kept on looking at the bowl of soup. It looked tasty but I had no appetite. I had other plans. I took a spoonful of soup and put it in my mouth, and the moment I did that, I started floating in the air. I started panicking because I couldn’t understand what was happening, so I asked my grandmother if the soup was jinxed. She said, “The soup brings out your abilities and helps you understand them better for its magical potion base. You have the powers of a dragon that lets you emit fire and fly.”

    I sigh in relief and end up burning the wall because I’m partially a dragon after all, and that’s how I realized I’m a supernatural being.

    Jafratus was the person who kidnapped my grandmother because he knew the powers she had, and he also knew that kidnapping her would pave a path for him toward me so that he could capture me and take away all the powers that I had by sacrificing me. The plan didn’t work because it turned out that Jafratus was my long-lost brother who had always protected me. The sole reason why he wanted to sacrifice me was that he could see the future as he was also a fortune teller and knew that offering me would turn me into a complete mortal being, which would prevent me from getting into trouble because of my dragon senses. I couldn’t understand that, and I ended up hurting him. Now that I saw him in tears and was drenched in their wetness, I couldn’t help but feel remorse. Perhaps, that’s what happens when you achieve powers. In the guise of conquering the world, you sometimes forget the things that are essential for you, and the people who are dear to you often are the ones who are the reason for your downfall. If only I knew how bad of a person grandmother was that she wanted me to have all those powers to use me against the world, I would never have given myself to her. NEVER!!

  • The Enchanted Lighthouse

    The Enchanted Lighthouse

    Once upon a time, in a small coastal village, there stood a lighthouse known as the Enchanted Lighthouse. The villagers believed it held mystical powers and served as a guardian to their shores. Legends told of its ability to guide lost ships safely to harbor through stormy nights and treacherous waters. But what the villagers didn’t know was that the lighthouse was also home to a secret magical creature.

    The creature was a lonely, mischievous pixie named Elara. With shimmering wings and a mischievous smile, she spent her days hidden away in the lighthouse, casting enchantments on passing ships, and observing the lives of the villagers from afar. But despite her magical abilities, Elara longed for companionship.

    One stormy night, as the waves crashed violently against the shore, a ship found itself caught in the perilous grip of a tempest. The captain, fearing for the lives of his crew, looked to the Enchanted Lighthouse for guidance. As if hearing his plea, Elara sensed the ship’s distress and sprang into action.

    Using her magic, Elara illuminated the lighthouse’s beacon with an otherworldly brilliance, guiding the ship away from the treacherous rocks. The crew marveled at the miraculous intervention, unaware of the tiny pixie responsible for their salvation.

    Filled with gratitude, the captain returned the following day, determined to uncover the mystery behind the Enchanted Lighthouse’s powers. As he climbed the winding staircase, he discovered Elara, her wings fluttering with excitement.

    Intrigued by her presence, the captain struck up a conversation with Elara, and over time, they forged an unlikely friendship. Elara shared her tales of magical adventures, and the captain recounted his voyages across distant seas. They laughed, they cried, and they learned from each other’s experiences.

    News of the captain’s newfound friendship with Elara spread throughout the village, and soon the villagers embraced the idea of a magical creature in their lighthouse. The Enchanted Lighthouse became a symbol of hope, reminding everyone of the power of friendship and the magic that exists in even the most unexpected places.

    As the years passed, Elara’s bond with the captain grew stronger, and the Enchanted Lighthouse continued to protect the village with its guiding light. The villagers celebrated their connection to the magical world, and stories of their extraordinary friendship passed down through generations.

    The Enchanted Lighthouse became a beacon not only for lost ships but also for lost souls, reminding all who encountered it that friendship and kindness could bring light into the darkest of times.

  • June’s Magical Adventure

    June’s Magical Adventure

    Once upon a time in a small coastal village, there lived a young girl named June. She was known for her infectious laughter and kind heart. June’s village was famous for its mesmerizing sunsets that painted the sky with hues of orange and pink. The villagers believed that these sunsets held magical powers.

    One evening, as June gazed at the breathtaking sunset, she noticed something unusual—a sparkling light twinkling amidst the clouds. Intrigued, she followed the light until it led her to a hidden cave. June cautiously entered the cave, her heart pounding with excitement and a touch of fear.

    Inside, she discovered an ancient book with a worn-out cover. The pages were filled with stories of forgotten lands and mystical creatures. As she turned the pages, a gust of wind emerged, revealing a secret incantation.

    June, driven by curiosity, recited the incantation aloud. Instantly, the cave transformed into a gateway, transporting Junel to a world filled with enchantment. She found herself in a vibrant forest, where talking animals and fairies roamed freely.

    Eager to explore, June embarked on a magical adventure. She encountered a wise owl who guided her through the enchanted forest, a mischievous squirrel who taught her acrobatic tricks, and a kind-hearted fairy who granted her a pair of wings.

    As June continued her journey, she realized that the magical world was slowly losing its color and vibrancy. The creatures were becoming sad, and the once-magical forest was withering away. Determined to bring back the enchantment, June rallied the creatures and led them on a mission.

    Together, they discovered that the source of the fading magic was a powerful dark sorcerer who had cast a spell to drain the world of its enchantment. June bravely confronted the sorcerer, using her newfound powers of courage and kindness.

    With a burst of energy, June broke the sorcerer’s spell, restoring the world’s magic and color. The creatures rejoiced, and the forest bloomed once more. Grateful for June’s bravery, they crowned her as the protector of their enchanted realm.

    After bidding farewell to her newfound friends, June returned to her village. She carried with her the memories of her incredible adventure and a heart full of wonder. From that day on, June shared the stories of the magical world, spreading joy and inspiring others to believe in the power of magic and the beauty of kindness.

  • The Hero and his Dream

    Edward’s nose twitched with pleasure as the aroma of freshly baked bread and the provocative spices emanating, the rattling sounds of chariots pulled by horses and the knights in shinning armor in the magical city of Kamrup. His young eyes couldn’t believe what he was witnessing. 

    Edward who was born and bought up in a small village named Duni, where he lived with his parents and 3 siblings. In this world where magic is in every corner of life, Edward’s family and his fellow villagers are ordinary amongst extraordinary with low to no magical powers. But this is a boon in disguise for the villagers, because without any magical powers, the land is also devoid of any monsters and disasters caused by magic, which actually makes the village a safe heaven and a happy place for people to stay.

    Edward in the village was the Swan among Ducks, his talent for magic was top-notch as he could use magic even in the mana(the oxygen equivalent for people to use magic) forsaken land. As he grew up, he became more obsessed with learning magic and began to dream of a life full of satisfaction where he would learn magic and be in a big city respected by everyone.

    At the age of 17, Edward left his village on a awe-inspiring journey to the biggest magical city in the continent, Kamrup. As he reached the city he came to realize that his journey has just started and he has a lot to learn about magic and know of his true potential.

    After three long decades, Edward was finally returning to his birthplace. He could sense the feeling of home as he came closer to his village, the familiar sights, the fresh mana-less air and people in their fields gave him a different type of relief. Edward approached the village with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, as he reached his home, he cried out for his mother and father. His parents who were quite old now, came out as fast as they could and cried tears of joy while hugging Edward and exclaiming to everyone that their son is back. His siblings too rushed out and hugged their brother whom they haven’t seen for 30 whole years.

    After staying just one night in his home, Edward realized that what he had thrown away in search of something better is what he has been missing his whole life. The sense of happiness and satisfaction he felt was unlike anything he felt in Kamrup. Next morning he sent a magical pigeon to the Mage Headquarters in Kamrup with a letter that said,”I pen this letter to inform that I Edward Chapel am retiring from my adventurous life of being a mage. I have found true peace and happiness in my village amidst my family and the ever so nostalgic surroundings. I hope my decision of retiring from the mage corps is acknowledged. Thank you “. Edward finally understood his goal was just to be satisfied and happy and had nothing to do with money, fame and magic.

  • “The Storyweaver’s Legacy: A Tapestry of Adventures”

    Once upon a time, in the enchanting land of Eldoria, there existed a young orphan named Luna. Luna possessed an extraordinary gift: the ability to bring stories to life with a mere touch of her fingertips. Her magical gift was passed down through generations of her family, but sadly, she was the last of her kind.

    Luna lived in a small village where the art of storytelling was treasured. Her favorite place was the village library, where she spent hours immersed in books, her mind overflowing with adventures waiting to be unleashed. One fateful day, as she touched a particularly ancient tome, a portal materialized before her.

    Curiosity sparked within Luna, and she stepped into the portal, finding herself in the midst of a captivating storybook world. Here, every tale she had ever read came to life, and the characters yearned for her guidance. Luna realized she had been chosen to be the “Storyweaver,” the guardian of these worlds.

    With her newfound responsibility, Luna embarked on thrilling adventures alongside beloved characters. She helped a brave knight save a captured princess, used her wit to outsmart a mischievous genie, and aided a young explorer in discovering a hidden treasure. As Luna continued to weave tales, her confidence grew, and she discovered her own strength and resilience.

    However, not all was well in Eldoria. A dark sorceress, jealous of Luna’s power, sought to steal her gift and rule over the storybook realms. Luna’s final challenge awaited her as she faced the sorceress in an epic battle. Drawing upon the strength of the characters she had befriended, Luna fought valiantly, weaving a tapestry of bravery, love, and hope.

    In the end, Luna triumphed, banishing the sorceress from Eldoria forever. The land was filled with renewed magic, and Luna was hailed as a hero. Her story became a legend, passed down through generations as a testament to the power of imagination and the importance of preserving the art of storytelling.

    Luna’s tale reminds us that within each of us lies the ability to shape our own narratives and create magic in our lives. It teaches us that stories have the power to inspire, transform, and unite us, and that even the humblest among us can become heroes.

  • Loyality and sacrifice test

    Loyality and sacrifice test

    On a starry night, Isha woke up half dreaming and walked near the window. Something must have awaken her from her intense sleep. Her hands were cold and toes freezing as she stepped out of her comfortable blanket and walked towards the bright gleam of light just outside her home. Its was a fantastic event to observe but no one else was awaken from the hustle and bustle suddenly created in the lonely lane of Roosewington town somewhere located in America.

    As she peeped outside her window she saw a plathora of bright light in raindow colors, dancing at the tune of some kind of magical melodious tune. And one ray of violet light rose towards her and shape-shift into a dancind ballet girl. From behind it another ray in amber came glittering towards the window it shaped itself into a poodle and started dancing along with the violet light. It was a high quality magic only the best of best magicians could do, and that’s the reason why Isha knew who exactly had arrived for a summer vacation visit. She swiftly opened her window frame to let her sister in. And along with a brilliant display of light magic her sister bella glided in her room. Out of the cocoon made of pure light bella jumped out to hug her dister. “It was cold outside, thankfully you let me in before freezing to death”, she gratefully spoke, ” that’s why you are the best sister in the whole human world “. Isha nodded in agreement and took her littel sister into her arms… It was a sisterly long hug which ended after not less than seven hundred seconds. It was too late but excited about her sister’s arrival Isha rushed to wake her mom and dad and tell them the news. As she stepped on the very first stair her toes slipped, an accident was bound to take place but she froze in the mid air and was saved by Bella’s magical wand once again. It reminded her of the very first time they found out that Bella was a witch.. When she saved Isha during a fatal car crash from atleast 500 meter distance. Soon after that Their family was visited by magic creatures to convince her parents to send her to magical school and Bella was sent with them for a safe and protected future. Ofcourse she was happy to join her kind but sad about leaving Isha alone at home. So she often breaks away from school to visit her for hour or two once a week. This time she has come to spend the whole summer vacations so she requested Isha not to wake anyone else. Isha accepted on one condition, that bella has to tell everything to her about her school for the rest of the night. So they talked and talked till they both fell asleep in an hour or so.

    Next morning their mother coming in their room found them sleeping togather and covered them in a cozy blanket. She brought them warm milk and cookies and woke them up. All the four of them were happily togather and their days passed like that of any other happy family. A week later Bella came home from a neighborhood park in a puzzled manner and tried hiding herself from something. Her father couldn’t help but noticed her anxiety and asked her, ” Is there something bothering you Bella”, but she denied and passed a scared smile. Bella’s mother noticed scrates on her arm while she sat for dinner still half nervous. Realizing that bella hid the marks with magic. But when later Isha and Bella went to bed togather Isha to asked her about her peculiar behavior and this time Bella broke into tears saying, ” I did not came here on vacations but I came here because the magicians want us to kill our family members for the reason that they know about us. And today is my final day to accomplish my task if I have to pass my ‘loyalty and sacrifice exam’ .” she also told her in case she fails the exam she will be taken to be executed.

    Tears ran out of Isha’s deep blue eyes. She asked her sister to relax till the time she could come up with a plan to save both her sister and her parents. Next morning as the wizards come to escort Bella back to her execution. Both the girls came out to meet them. Neither them or the wizards told anything about the test to her mother and father. Bella never looked sad while leaving. She hugged everyone back home and waved a goodbye. On the other hand Isha was way more sad than usual this perticular time while waving back to her dear sister.

    After Bella left Isha soon retired to her bed and putting her face under her pillow cried for the rest of the time. But her tears had magic in them, where ever they fell Lillies bloomed on the spot. When her mother entered the room, she shrieked in fright to find bella crying in place of Isha. It turned out that Bella had shapeshifted into Isha and Isha had taken her place while being taken to execution. Bella told the complete truth to her parents filled with grief and guilt of accepting Isha’s plan to save her life. The joyful atmosphere of their home suddenly turned into dull and gloomy.

    Moments later their door was knocked. Struck with grief her father opened the door. He was awestruck to find Isha standing at the door withmany more wizards than normally would come to escort the witches and wizards. They were filled with praise and appreciation for Isha’s sense of love and sacrifice for her parents and sister. Making Bella the only girl to pass the test in the entire magic school that year. The head of the school also accompanied Isha home proudly said, ” while all the other students used their magic to save themselves and tried to hurt their family your daughters wittily showed loyality and sacrificed for their family”. He rewrote a few old codes and then with a swift motion of his wand he baptized Isha with the highest order of super magic powers.

    Both the sisters cherished their reunion once again and with both having obtained magical powers and admitted to the same trouble were nothing less than a double trouble. While the wizards were leaving out of curiosity Bella hasitantly inquired, “so what happened to the parents of other children, are they all dead?”

    At this all the wizards burst in laughter, then master wizard replied, ” since you are wizards your parents are protected by law with our special authority and hence they are wizard ensured. No super power can hurt them. So it was just a test and never meant to hurt anyone in the first place.”

    This knowledge relieved everyone present there. And as the fairytales end this story, of two beautiful sisters called Bella and Isha, too ended happily ever after.

  • Ruby and Aluka

    Ruby and Aluka

    To begin with, I want to assure you that angels don’t like earth. Infact earth is that darkest planet in the whole universe which fairies, angels, elfs and encantados etc. are all afraid of, because demons live on Earth. But one of the pretiest of their creed somehow stayed on earth. This is the tale of Ruby, the youngest angel of the fairyland and the only angel who made the other angels to tread on this much feared planet with a renewed perception about Earth and its people.

    This story is long forgotten by us, but the people of Sumadia speak about it quit often. In the ancient lands of diamond studded Sumadian kingdom, a young and handsome Sumadian king Aluka decided to build a moon tower. He was fascinated by tales of angels and always fancied what angels look like since his childhood. After he grew up to be an amazing king, he wanted to catch one for his future children, so that they could see in real, how angels look. He knew that the magical beings are almost always attracted by shining objects, so he prepared a grand plan. It was not an intangible idea, His highness was a famous architect himself, he single handedly started working on the moon tower project. The news spread like fire in the forest. On his call, tonnes and tonnes of men reached his kingdom, all were skilled craftsmen. Some came loaded in dinghies and others arrived to the shores in big ships. Many other kings also supported him and sent jewels and precious stones in return of the promise of acquiring an angel for themselves. Some of them only wanted to see angels in their lifetime, and some just presupposed to acquire the angels with force. But what ever were their thoughts, they all contributed with ample amout of dough and manpower for that masterpice of architecture.

    This is how with all the positive signs, the moon tower project got under way. King Aluka prepared such an amazing design that any angel which gets attracted towards it, will surely find a path inside but will never be able to get out again. No magic could break the trap as it was carved out of hardest and shiniest element on Earth. There were no loopholes in this perfect trap since the angel bait was good for magical beings but humans could easily walk in and out of the trap.

    Almost 20,000 men worked at one time to erect the tower in the middle of the castle. It was made with 24 carat gold and at the top was the stunning crescent moon full of bright shine reflecting from giant diamonds taking light from other heavenly bodies, which was made completely with layers and layers of precious gem stones. Although the moon tower mimicked the shine of moon, even then it shined brighter than all the celestial bodies seen in the vast sky. In two year time the whole tower was made and in the next two only the moon at the top of it, was built. Overall it was a success and turned out to be way better than expected.

    Many magical beings came attracted towards the newly built moon but as soon as they came to know that the light is coming from the dark realms of Earth, they would drift away instantly. News about this moon tower reached to the splended fairy kingdom as well, with warnings to avoid the moon at any cost. One day a band of angels passed from above the planet Earth. All were charmed by the cristal shine of the moon but minding the warnings associated with it they ignored the luring glitters of the moon and moved on, on thier path. But Rubi was so enthralled by the glitters and the luster that she hid herself behind a lily to keep looking into the moon. An hour passed gazing into the moon, then Ruby looked around, only to find out that her friends were nowhere near. She made a few calls to them but they were all gone far away. It was not that, she didn’t knew her way back home but she was deliberately looking to spend more time watching the magnificent moon.

    Then she thought for a minute, “it’s the right time to explore the moon, before others notice and comeback looking for me, I should go and take a closer look and nobody will ever know about it. “She flew near to the top, it was heavenly experience for her to be surrounded by such beautiful jewels of earth. Finding an opening she peeped in, there was a magnificent stairway adorned by roses made of precious gems. She then so badly wanted to walk on the steps that she ignored all the cautions and jumped inside the trap. Going down and down she realised, she was lost and no longer could find a way out. She became concious of her mistake and blamed herself for the miserable situation she was in. Her night passed crying and she fell asleep on the beautiful floor.

    Early morning king looked out of his window to observe the moon tower as his every day ritual. And he couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw one lovely angel caught within his moon trap. It was a victory for him and he was over joyed to finally achieved his dreams. He rushed towards the tower to have a closer look at the angel before anyone else finds out about her. Hastily climbing to the top he stopped just near the angel and watched her enchanting face in her sleep and instantly fell in love with her. At that moment Ruby was in her pretiest form, her deep scarlet wings were wide open, her body was glittering with the reflection of diamonds, she was tired and sitting on the diamond studded floor wearing the finest pink ombre fabric. Which was throughly a breathtaking experience for the king.

    Hearing some noices around her Ruby wakes up, seeing the king staring at her, the angel was as horified, as the kind was enamored by seeing her beauty. To ease her fear introduced himself and assured her that he would never harm her. He explained his purpose of constructing the tower to her and made an offer to the sweet creature to stay in his kingdom forever. But the angel felt threatened and started weeping. Seeing her pitiful condition king decided to free the angel.

    He gave her a blanket to hide herself through the day and promised to return during night and show her the way out. Ruby stopped crying but she was in a fix if she should trust a human or not. As night fell other angels located her but noone dared to step inside the moon to save Ruby, instead they belittled her for defying rules. They tried to use their magic from out side but nothing worked. In the end feeling sorry for her misfortune they left ruby on her fate and went back to fairyland. Ruby at last decided to trust the human, as she had no other choice left with her and also because she had a soft corner in her heart for the kind king. She waited for Aluka for till late, but he did not come. Ruby hopelessly slept on the floor again cursing her fate. When the clock striked 1, king finally reached to Ruby’s help. He entred the moon and walked near the devine being. Although he wanted to watch the beautiful angel sleep but he recalled his promise of freeing her that night. He woke her up and asked her to trust him. Ruby accepted and held the king’s hand which he offered to her. Being a human king Aluka could see the way out very clearly. He escorted the angel out of the moon climbing each stair with somewhat hasitation. He knew he was about to lose his angel still he succumbed for his feeling of pure love towards her. Reaching the last stair he offered the angel to stay with him, this time more assertively then before and with laying bare his heart in front of the pink winged angel. Ruby looked at his face, she knew his proposal was genuine and his heart was pure but she didn’t wanted to commit the same mistake twice. She only accepted the help gracefully and denied his proposal on the grounds that angels can not love humankind.

    She walked past the king to get out of the diamond moon first. Breathing the fresh air around her she fluttered her wings and rose above the surface of moon. Now that she knew it was just a trap she couldn’t feel attracted towards it anymore. Thanking king Aluka, she waved goodbye to him once again. Aluka too selflessly let the angel return to her home with a sad smile over his face. She thanked the king and flew away.

    Many days passed and other kings were disappointed at how the promising trap failed terribly, because no one else knew about the angel except the king. Aluka was strongly criticised by them for squandering all the money on a useless moon tower which caught nothing except dust. For many days, king couldn’t sleep and eat properly. He was in love with the angel and missed her absence in his life. One night he looked at the moon tower to observe his masterpiece in memory of that beautiful angel he lost. But his happiness knew no bounds when he saw Ruby sitting at the staircase of the moon. He secretly went to meet her without letting anyone know.

    The angel was back to Earth only for the king. She said to him not to grieve any longer as she had come to stay. The king proposed again on his knees with the last diamond left in his kingdom, It was an ancestral ring of the royal family, which the angel accepted happily. Then the only barrier was that angels cannot marry a human. Since the king could not be made an angel, Ruby transformed herself into a human by giving up on her magical powers forever. They planned their wedding by the end of one weeks time. And till then everyday they longed for eachother.

    This made the lovers realize that no trap in the entire universe is as strong as the bound of love and nothing could be a better craft than a sincere heart. Factually despite the cleaver craftsmanship ofthe moon tower, it couldn’t catch the angel but the selfless love and kindness, which king offered to the angel, sincerely caught her heart. In the end, Ruby, the angel of fierce pink wings, stayed on Earth with her own wishes and all the angels came to attend her marriage to the king. In a weeks time when the wedding ceremonies were going on, the visitors on the brides side, explored the amazing trenches and caverns of earth and fell in love with the place. Along with the mesmarising beauty of Earth beautiful heart of noble men like king Aluka made angels to change their assumptions about the ‘Blue planet’ … Since then magical creatures sometimes visit and even inhabit the deep beautiful forests and beaches of Earth. Since then sending gifts to Earthlings became a known practice in fairyland. And many angels visit our lands till date, to bring gifts to the bloodlines of angels who married on this planet afterall. This is why children all over the world are asked to be kind and sweethearted, so that angels could recognise their hereditary traits in them and give them presents every now and then. And this is the sole reason why Sumanian people recite the advantures of Ruby and King Aluka to their children as bed time stories. Afterall who could guess who are the real heirs of angels amoung all the cute little angels born in form of human babies.
