The Little Boy & the Leprechaun

29 years ago

In the land of Ireland, locating the farthest, deepest garden of forest, there was a bright, rich, colorful, village full of houses, cottages, shops, schools, markets, treehouses, and many places. The village was lived by a countless horde of mythical, magical Irish, red-haired, bearded, green-eyed creatures called leprechauns but coexisted with elves, sprites, pixies, and fairies who lived in the woods aside as neighbors. Leprechauns are greedy and they cannot share, they always hide their pots of gold at the end of the rainbow but some had manual labor in economics and livelihoods. In the shoe shop where leprechauns worked as show cobblers who repaired and made shoes using some tools. In the cottage near the farmland, there is a family of farmers, the Saints working for food and their needs, they harvest vegetables including potatoes in every crop and water flows through them freely to grow them. There, was a farm boy named Leo, he had red short hair and green eyes, wearing a green shirt, pants, and a pair of brown leather boots, he always helped his family by doing his chores and caring for his animals.

"Leo, are you done doing chores." asked the mother, she had long, braided hair and green eyes, wearing a green dress and brown boots.

"Yes, mommy," responded Leo, having finished his chores and he went to his cottage with his family.

"Hey, kiddo, how is it going." chuckled the father, he had a bald head with a red sideburn and brown eyes, was wearing a green shirt, pants with a pair of suspenders with a pair of gold clips, and a pair of brown boots.

"Yeah," replied Leo, then his uncle and grandfather showed up to visit their family.

"Hey, Uncle Jasper is in the house." cheered Uncle Jasper, he was younger than Leo's father when he had short red hair, green eyes, and stubble, wearing a green-sleeved shirt, pants, and brown boots.

"Uncle Jasper!" exclaimed Leo, running to his uncle and hugging him.

"Hi, Grandpa Saint. How is it going." greeted the mother, waving her hand at her father-in-law.

"I know, Stella, my eldest son, Antonio ask you to show the true meaning of charity," said Grandpa Saint, he had gray hair, beard, and green eyes, wearing a green-sleeved shirt, dark green vest, lime pants, and brown boots.

"Right," said Antonio, he pulled out a treasure box filled with doubloons and jewelry inside.

"Dad, what's that..." impressed Leo.

"Our great-great-grandfather used to have this when he met a pirate captain who was charitable and kind to all of us rather than being greedy as the other pirates," said Antonio, giving the treasure box to his son.

"Wow." excited Leo.

"Leonardo, it was destined to find the true meaning of charity and you promise that things change better," said Stella, handing her son a wooden wand stick.

"What's this?" asked Leo.

"It was from your great-grandfather, a Nelwyn sorcerer Willow Ufgood, he was a farmer like us. He dedicated his duty to protect those he dearly cared for," explained Stella.

"Wow!" amazed Leo, taking the wooden wand stick from his mother, he waved cheerfully and laughed.

"Be careful, Leo," warned Stella cautiously.

"Why not?" thought Leo.

"Your great-grandfather had an evil counterpart, an evil homicidal leprechaun Lubdan Buttowski," explained Stella.

"Who is he?" questioned Leo skeptically.

"He is the greediest, richest, tyrant in Ireland and anyone in his path. He has been searching for a bride to be his wife," said Stella.
