Third persons pov

It's been two weeks, two long weeks of moving and shifting, and three weeks of grandma passing away. On Taehyung's request they are all down in the store room tidying up the place that holds grandma's treasure.

The old library, was tucked away in a different section of house altogether almost as if it wasn't part of the house.

behind a heavy wooden door with an iron handle that required a firm tug to open. Inside,
The air was heavy with the scent of aged paper, a fragrance that hinted at centuries of wisdom and stories waiting to be uncovered.( I love smelling old books 😍)

Wow looks like a sorcerer's room."Jimin exclaimed as soon as the doors were pushed open.

"You have a great art of offending people Jim, be polite with your words." Jin went push passed him.

Yeah I'm sorry. Jimin sulked.

"Hey jimin it's fine I know you're trying to lighten up the situation, but please shut up ."
Hobi scoffed following Jin towards the opening of the room.

"So much for being funny."he sulked again.

Except you're not. Now focus." Taehyung  let go of the latch of the door entering the  room.

Towering shelves after shelves lined with books, the wooden planks sagging slightly under the volumes they cradled.
The books themselves were treasures covered in leather with intricate designs and gilded lettering. Some volumes appeared as if they had not been touched in generations, their pages were yellowed and fragile.

"These are all my grandmothers story books , she would read them to me". Taehyung said with a hint of happiness, this was his grandmothers treasure that she had left for them.

It was hard to make out the titles for the books
decades of neglect that had cloaked the shelves.
The room was dimly lit, the sunlight being the only source, which entered through the creeks of the dilapidated walls and ceiling.

"Looks like her grandmother read them to her aswell cause these are old- okay I'm sorry"
Jimin remarked, feeling a tinge of embarrassment at his previous comment.

Jimin paused for a moment before continuing, "I mean, seriously, how old are these books?"

His friend, puzzled by the mysterious books, replied, "I'm not sure, but these are some rare books , because i once wanted the continuation for one of the books but they claimed the book never existed".

"Which book was it ?" Namjoon chimed in , intrigued by the fact that the books were a scarce collection, he was always a sucker for books.

"El' drithoria" taehyung whispered.

"Do you think it's still there ?" Jimin dusted his hands from all the books he had touched, boy they were dusty.

Taehyung pushed aside the books he had examined, stating, "It must still be here." He was resolute in his quest to rediscover his long-forgotten favorite fairy tale.

five determined boys huddled together, their faces etched with determination and curiosity. The air was heavy with the scent of ancient paper, and cobwebs adorned forgotten corners.

their hands carefully sifted through the forgotten tomes, searching for that elusive book.
Hours passed by when the search party was broken by a triumph cry.

"I found it, I found it!" Jimin's cry echoed through the silent chambers.

a collective gasp escaped the other's lips,a book rested in Jimin's hands The cover, a testament to its regal lineage, screamed of royalty with its golden, intricate borders meticulously etched onto a velvet skin cover.

"It's , it's beautiful!" Namjoon exclaimed.

a strange aura enveloped the book, an enchanting energy that seemed to hum with forgotten spells and untold tales. It beckoned, a silent invitation to explore the mysteries concealed within its time-worn pages.

With a sense of validation, Jimin pointed to the faded title on the book's cover, triumphantly declaring, "See, it reads 'El dri oria.'"

Hoseok  leaned in, gently correcting him with a grin, "You mean 'El drithoria.' Didn't see the 'th' right there, did you?" Their laughter filled the ancient library, a testament to their shared adventure and the joy of finally uncovering the book.

The five friends huddled together, their fingers trembling with anticipation, as they cracked open the long-sought-after book.

This is it! This is the book. "El'drithoria".

"I don't understand why your grandmother wanted you to find this book." As confused as Jin was and so we're the others they noticed a strange, ethereal light began to emanate from the book's ancient pages.

The room seemed to hold its breath as they turned the pages of the book , the light grew brighter, their surroundings blurred, and a swirling wind enveloped them. Panic and excitement warred within them as they found themselves lifted from the ground, suspended in the air like leaves in a tempest. The world around them twisted and spiraled, and the sensation of being caught in a tornado engulfed them.

"Wh-what is happening? I'm scared." Hobi held  the hands of the one in his reach.

"Well she clearly wanted all of us dead." Jimin screamed.

Their screams were lost in the howling wind, and moments later, they were unceremoniously expelled into a new, unknown world. They lay unconscious in a disheveled heap, dazed and disoriented, surrounded by a landscape that bore no resemblance to their own.

The adventure they had embarked upon had taken an unexpected turn, plunging them headfirst into an uncharted realm filled with mysteries yet to be unraveled.

<The other side>

"Nana if I may ask, what are you planning to do.".

"My Kookie it is high time, the kingdom needs him presently."

"Is it safe ? What if the walkers are concious of his arrival."

"They are not yet."

"Where are they now"?

"They have reached. I entrust you with the duty to seek them and bring them back to their rightful place.  They need to be where they belong."
