He just watched the moon changing colors, he was just drawn to it. And after having a deep breath he got up , looked for someone to ask for what's happening there. He looked around and saw an old lady on the first floor's platform sitting there staring at the moon. She was making some movement from fingers towards the moon and it was changing the Colors. Mrinal was amazed by all of the people's capabilities and powers. He clapped once to grab her attention and to ask her how is that possible for her to do so?.
The lady looked at him. Mrinal " with due respect!!! I want to know!!!!! How can you do this!!!!" Shouted from top.
The lady looked at him and made her own color light and waved him to come down.
He just jumped from the top to the first floor and landed beside her with a wave of wind passing through, clearing the dried leaves around.
She was very nice and peaceful. And a gentle, wise look on her face was reflecting happy quietness. She had a saree on, decorated from traditional design and vibrant colors. Some simple jewelleries embracing her look. Her name was Chandrika, which means 'moonlight'. She can predict a person's future or related to the person. And she had the ability to change the color of any object.
She said "you seem to be one of the new visitors here.." nods slowly with a smile.
He said "yes yes I am. Pranam. I hope I didn't disturbed you ." Smiles
Chandrika said "I am the oldest mother here, my name is chandrika. And your name...."
Mrinal "oh . Yes.... My name is Mrinal, I'm a singer, pushti told me the story about how the forest became mysterious then she told me that I can ask you. But she said that you'll be back in one or two days and you are here already!"
Chandrika " yes of course. You must have got many questions about that. Don't worry, I'll tell you about that. First calm down." Smiles
Mrinal took a deep breath and stood silently.
Chandrika "Okay now you're ready to know what happened. When the light came here and the major part spreaded over the forest, the light got directly on me too. That's why I can change the color of objects. Everyone was inside sleeping and it's my habit to watch the moon till late night. So the light had some amount of zeon in it ( 'zeon' the magical compound which was in light and made the forest magical ) , zeon comes from the water in the waterfall inside the cave , but only the waterfall decides whether to give that zeon to anyone or not so that man got the zeon from the waterfall and got turned into light himself and bursted, so that's what happened." smiles
Mrinal "and,, why did she tell me that you will be back in one or two days ?"
Chandrika "she is overprotective of me so she lies to anybody but that's rare for her to lie .Maybe because you came and talked about your father to her so she lied. I apologize on behalf of her."
