Discovering Angbotain The beginnings - book 1

CHAPTER XIX

Thirty-four years had passed since the crowning of the four siblings - Louie, Jillian, Angel, and Jacob. They had ruled the forest with wisdom and compassion, ensuring the harmony and well-being of its inhabitants. However, on this particular day, the kings and queens found themselves seated on their thrones, feeling a sense of restlessness and boredom.

Louie, always the adventurous one, broke the silence. "How about we go horse riding? It's been ages since we've had a thrilling adventure."

Jillian's eyes lit up with excitement. "That sounds like a fantastic idea! We could use a bit of excitement in our lives."

Angel nodded, her gentle smile reflecting her agreement. "I miss the feeling of the wind in my hair and the thrill of riding through the forest."

Jacob, the youngest of the siblings, chimed in, his voice filled with enthusiasm. "Count me in! It'll be a great way to reconnect with the forest and its creatures."

With their decision made, Louie called out to the soldiers, instructing them to prepare their horses for the ride. The soldiers swiftly carried out their orders, bringing forth the majestic steeds that had been a part of their lives for many years.

As they mounted their horses, a sense of anticipation filled the air. The four siblings exchanged excited glances, ready to embark on a new adventure together. They kicked their horses into a gentle gallop, the rhythmic sound of hooves echoing through the castle courtyard.

They rode through the forest, their laughter and friendly competition filling the air. The wind whispered through the trees, carrying with it the sweet scent of wildflowers and the songs of birds. The sunlight filtered through the canopy, casting a dappled glow on the forest floor.

Suddenly, Angel's horse came to an abrupt stop, causing her to jolt forward. Confused, she looked at her horse and asked, "What's wrong, my friend?"

To her surprise, the horse turned its head and spoke in a gentle, wise voice. "I'm afraid I'm not as young as I used to be, my dear. I need a moment to catch my breath."

Her siblings burst into laughter, unable to contain their amusement. "Even horses grow old, Angel!" Louie exclaimed, his laughter echoing through the forest.

After a few moments, they continued their ride, the path leading them deeper into the woods. The vibrant colors of the flora surrounded them, painting a picturesque scene. The sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a warm glow on their faces.

As they rode along a narrow bush path, they realized that there was no way for their horses to continue. Reluctantly, they dismounted and decided to continue on foot. The four siblings walked side by side, their footsteps crunching on the fallen leaves.

As they made their way through the dense undergrowth, their voices filled the air with playful banter and laughter. They reminisced about their past adventures and shared stories of their triumphs and challenges. The forest seemed to come alive around them, the animals and creatures of the woods observing their reunion with curious eyes.

However, As they walked, they bickered and argued, each one convinced that they knew the best way to get through the thicket. However, their arguing soon turned to laughter as they stumbled and fell, their clothes getting caught on the thorns and their feet sinking into the mud.

Finally, they emerged from the thicket, their clothes torn and their faces covered in scratches and dirt. They looked at each other and burst out laughing.

"That was ridiculous," Angel said, wiping the dirt from her face.

"I can't believe we argued so much over a stupid bush," Jacob said, shaking his head.

Louie grinned at them.
"Well, at least we had fun," he said.

As they continued walking down the bush path, the four siblings began to argue over who was to blame for getting them lost.

"I told you we should have gone left!" Angel exclaimed, pointing a finger at Jacob.

"No, you said we should have gone right!" Jacob shot back.

Jillian rolled her eyes and shook her head.

"Can we please just focus on finding our way out of here?" she said, exasperated.

But before they could continue their argument, they all suddenly stumbled and fell. When they opened their eyes, they found themselves back in the empty room where they had started their adventure. They looked at each other, confused and disoriented.
Only minutes had passed in the real world, and their grandfather, who had witnessed their fall, entered the room with a mix of concern and curiosity. "What are you all doing in this room? And why is the window broken?"

The siblings exchanged glances, realizing that they needed to explain the inexplicable. With a mixture of excitement and trepidation, they recounted the entire story to their grandfather, from their decision to go horse riding to their unexpected journey through the woods.

Their grandfather listened intently, his eyes filled with a mixture of wonder and understanding. When they finished their tale, he smiled warmly and said, "Sometimes, the most extraordinary adventures happen in the most unexpected ways. It seems that the forest wanted to remind you of the joy and innocence of your youth."
He turned his attention to the broken window, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "As for the window, I suppose we can fix it together. But remember, my dear grandchildren, the memories you've created today are far more valuable than any broken glass."
And with those words, the siblings felt a sense of peace and contentment. They knew that their journey as kings and queens had been a remarkable one, but they also realized the importance of embracing the childlike wonder and joy that had brought them together in the first place.
And so, the story of Louie, Jillian, Angel, and Jacob, their triumphs and struggles, their growth and resilience, would be passed down through generations. Their names would be forever etched in the annals of history, a reminder of the power that lies within each individual and the strength that comes from standing together.

So that is the very ending of the story of the four siblings adventure to angbotain they have challenged themselves to be brave, loyal, and stand for themselves and reminding them that this is not their final adventure but their adventure just begins now. THE END
