The tales will follow an emotional theme, A = Able, B = Bold, C = Clever. A good story brings out this emotional premise. Remember, we connect to a story because of pity, identification, sentimentalism, suffering, struggle, or recovery. A story is a look at our self. A story is believed with all the enhancements, fabrication, embroidery, and re-imaging used by the storyteller. We connect to other countries, worlds, and realities in other times and places or now through FABLES, FOLKTALES, FAIRY TALES, LEGENDS, AND MYTHS about kings, queens, sorceresses, magicians, princesses, and princes, fairies, elves, trolls, giants, men, women, villains or monsters having MAGICAL creatures: frogs, birds, snakes, cats, dogs, lions, tigers, bears, dragons or mythical beasts in live faraway kingdoms or dynasties on farms, in towns, in palaces, and castles in deep forests, deserts, thick jungles, on high mountains or in busy cities by rushing rivers, the vast ocean and seas, in the expansive sky or the milky-way where heroes, heroines, gods, goddesses, or plain everyday folk and animals travel through and in other realms.
STORY resonated in our bones from the ancient past with time-honored plots.

Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
Ota's Tales
Fairy tales for all generations, who have lost none of their earlier traditions, but are also ready to face the modern world and protect it. They protect the constantly oppressed good, the much-needed hope, but also the endangered nature. They give testimony to animals, mountain massifs, but also planets that cannot speak in the normal world. They try to calm themselves and learn to love, as an exceptional cactus has learned to do. They give hope to become better individuals, which became the parents of pampered Brat or Mr. Novak, who has learned to appreciate old and (un)needed things. And last but not least, they show that happiness and love are always there, and there is no need to look for them in distant lands like. Where some see deep wisdom, others see simple lessons or fun.Complete
