The Thirsty Crow

So, there was once a crow, flying happily above the clouds. The crow was full of joy and it suddenly felt thirsty. It looked around and couldn't see any sign of water. The only thing it saw was a tall cylinder jar with a few drops of water in it.


It was tall, and narrow, a bit too tall, and narrow. It's beak wasn't long enough to reach the water.

The crow flew up again in search for a solution. It came by a river and decided to drink from it. But then, right next to him, sitting on a huge rock, it saw a huge lion. The lion was wise and knew what the crow was about to do and what it has been doing. The lion said: "Can't you find any other place to drink? Is this world not big enough for you? By the way, that river might have pulled you with it!"
"I have searched everywhere but I couldn't find a drop of water. I only managed to find a tall, cylinder jar with a few drops of water in it.", replied the crow.
"Ooh. I might have a solution for that.", said the lion. The lion gave the crow some pebbles and it also told the crow what it has to do with them.

When the crow came back to the jar, it placed the pebbles in the jar and soon, the water starts to rise. In the end, the crow wasn't thirsty anymore and it flew across the mountains, again.

The Lost City (Part 2)

I looked closely to the the statue and realised it pictured a king, on his throne, he had a staff in his hand and an orb floating on his left hand. The king pictured as a statue also wore an amulet, similar to the one the panther wore. He remembered that the amulet the panther wore missed a piece, but this amulet was mysteriously exactly the same, it wasn't the other piece, it was 100% identical. Then suddenly, the panther was a few meters behind him. From the panthers eyes, I knew the panther wanted me to follow it. The panther led me through some forgotten streets and finally, I saw where it was leading me, it was a castle, massive and full of broken bricks and stairs. There were lots of holes in the walls of the lost building and through the holes, I saw panthers walking in the castle, they didn't seem to see me until one of them turned around and saw me, it said something to it's fellow panthers and they all stared at me. Me and the panther walked through the castl...

Dr. Phobia grabbed his computer out of his mini baggage and he actually couldn't set up the PC himself, the PC was sitting on his table for years or even decades, he just can't remember how everything worked with the setting up of something that old. So Tosh helped him, Tosh actually had studied with computers, so it was not that surprising to Dr. Phobia, but he was okay with the result, the computer worked and it was faster than ever before, after Tosh deleted some duplicate files and managed the RAM. They quickly went on the internet and searched up for dozens of social medias and made accounts in them, they advertised in lots of different ways and Tosh was even forced to walk out of the door and hold a piece of cardboard saying: "Please subscribe, follow and read Dr. Phobia's social media." Sooner or later, Dr. Phobia's computer started getting insane, it just couldn't manage all the data that is being received, followers commenting on posts, some scien...

The Lost City (Part 3)

So the training started, we began by walking through a series of old hallways and that is when I actually realise how big the castle was, I couldn't even imagine how powerful of a kingdom all this was. It took ages until we reach what seems to be the backyard. The backyard was very swampy and unlucky for me, it started to rain, it had a stone wall around it, which surprisingly still stands, vines have grown everywhere, moss has covered, pretty much what was a stone pathway. A few feet ahead lay some sort of target for archery, it wasn't a full circle anymore, it was a semi archery target. I hoped to not do archery, I quite had enough experience that I wasn't good in it, and luckily, he grabbed an old wooden stick. He gave it to me and told me to throw the stick into the middle. The stick touched my fleshy hand and I felt power from my hands coming out. I aimed the stick at the centre point and threw. The stick missed completely, and it flew straight through the stone ...
