The Magic Manic

by Danylo

The magic manic is a story that many generations passed down now its came down to me! It all started when he was a small boy… He went with his parents to this magical beach, it was called Beaches of Abroc, and it was the beaches where he found the hidden scripture in the corner of the fence near the walkway. He lifted it up confused at what it might be. He then flipped the old page over, and to his amazement it was all potions and spells and nonsense like the spell for invisibility.

When they said «Time to go Manio» (the boy's name, Manio), he does not go, but instead… he summoned Uareniaqe, The god of Beaches.

«Thel be more of no dearicects, o' padner of beach» said Uareniaqe.

Then after he said that, the only thing left on the beach was Manio and himself.

There was only one thing that could have happened. They travelled to the past…

Then he sees Sqehqa, the person made out of only Dark Matter (who lurked the Beaches of Abroc from 1602-1845). He, felt scared. And that was right. Because if you got too close to her or her to you, she could suck your heart out of you.

There was a way to destroy her though, so the journey began. First, you would need to know how she sucks hearts. She uses the Balade ne Destrayanoľ. So if you take that and use it against her, boom. She's gone. But that isn't as easy as it seems in written form. Because its always in her hand… and its hard to get it out of her hand with your heart intact.

He finds a scroll on Beach Natalongía, The Beaches of Abroc, Israel.

The scroll says 'How to defeat Sqehqa, and the ingredients to do it.'

  1. Shine of Blue Matter, found when you see a white spark on the shallow waters of Dang heran bohvohbi negoľ ia Beach, The beaches of abroc.
  2. Heart of Sqehqa, found on the east coast of The island o' eg Nataloi, Beach Natalongía.

Sqehqa lives on The island o' eg nataloi though… but fortunately for him she is patrolling the other island for now.

The clock is ticking—he has a window of opportunity to sneak onto her island, find the heart, and get out before she finishes her patrol and returns home.

So Manio quickly assembles a wooden boat and sets off 5km to The island o' eg nataloi

Once he is there, Manio quickly heads to the east coast through the dense trees of the island's jungle.

After some time, he arrived at the East Coast, which is very dangerous, because her servant patrols the North Parts of the East Coast, but he does nothing. Just a ghost that patrols the Northeast Coast, where the heart is.

He grabs the heart, rows back to the main island, and meets Uareniaqe again.

Since she isn't patrolling Dang heran bohvohbi negol' ia Beach, he decides to go 134km south to arrive at Dang heran bohvohbi negol' ia Beach.

But… he runs into a problem. The God of Blue Matter, who protects The Shine of Blue Matter.

He says

«To get the shine, you must first pass this riddle test»
«Question 1: I am a shine, in the Blue Matter Sea, What am I?»
«You are The Shine Of Blue Matter»
«Correct»
«2: If you feed me, I grow. If you water me, I die. What am I?»
«You are fire»
«Correct.»
«You may now take the shine»

He then takes the shine, puts it into the middle of Tema Giri, a temple. Then he also puts in the heart, and he then gets infused with a power: the power to be immune to her.

He now heads to Sqehqa and takes the blade, and they have an epic battle.

Finally, Sqehqa is destroyed. They can now go back to the present. But… there is a problem. They can only time travel with Uareniaqe. And Uareniaqe is gone… Find out what happens next in book 2.
