11. (This is a bit long)
  The sun above is the only light in this barren desert. It remains up there for months, and I suspect it won't stay down for long either. It's the Sun spirit's fault. Out of jealousy, it stole the Moon artefact.
  I hate it, the never-ending day. My Royal Lotuses only grow at night, which only arrives for a few minutes a day if I'm lucky. The Lotuses are what I'm famous for amongst the desert folk, and the Sun spirits greed is what prevents me from saving my family.
  "How long will you believe your tales?" The King of the sun's land whispered into my ear.
   The King of the moon's land stated, "She has no reason to reject them after his choice". I sighed loudly. If they were willing to quarrel, then I should restore the Moon artefact alone.
