Once upon a time, in a far, far away kingdom called Half Blood there lived a King and his Queen with five (5) sons namely; Prince Peter, Prince Leo, Prince Joseph, Prince Kevin and Prince Jason.
One day, the life of the King has come to an end, and there must be someone to replace him. And usually the one who will be the next king will be from the sons of the reigning King and Queen. The Sons of the King came to an argument.
“I am the oldest of you! So I must be the next to sit on the throne!” said Prince Peter.
“No! I am dad’s favourite! I should be the next to sit on dad's throne!” said Prince Kevin.
“Daddy told me I am the best! I should be the one sitting there!” said Prince Joseph.
“Dad promised me I would be someday sit on his throne! That means I'm the next King of this kingdom.” said Prince Leo.
“Then let’s settle this with a war!” said Prince Jason.
A servant knelt next to them, “My Kings, you should know that war is not the best answer to your problem”.
“Silence you fool!” they all replied.
The queen slept in misery as her sons are quarreling on who will be the next King. She didn’t know what to do. The battle raged as the forces of Prince Peter from the North stormed the fortress of Prince Leo in the east. While the forces of Prince Joseph in the West attacked the barricades of Prince Jason from the South, while the forces of Prince Kevin in the Southeast defends its territory from the armies of Prince Leo from the East.
The Queen was so full of sorrow and she doesn’t know what to do. The servant took care of the Queen and said, “My queen, why are they fighting? Don’t they know that they can kill themselves with war?”
“My servant, I wish we had a son like you”
When it’s night time, the queen went to a deep sleep. The King talked with her in her dream. “My wife, these night when the battle is still raging, light a torch at the top of the lighthouse at the center of the corners of the earth – north, south, east, west, and southeast, at night an aurora will appear at the sky. Burn red plastics and attach it to a rope, make 5 of this and put it together in each corners of the earth around the lighthouse when the aurora starts to shine, light these simultaneously. Go now my queen! You have a big task to make and the sun is rising, you must make it before the sun starts to shine”
When the queen starts to rise, a voice in his mind said “time is running out”. She suddenly set off for the lighthouse at the center of the 5 corners of the earth. With the servant in her side they burned red plastics and attached it to a rope and put 5 of these in each corners of the earth.
When the dawn came, an aurora shines brightly that made the queen and the servant lit the burnt plastics simultaneously and a red-bright coloured heart shone across the sky as the soldiers stopped what they are doing and there came a little silence. Then they stopped fighting and became sorry for each other.
The kingdom was once again silent and there was a little conversation of who will be the King.
“Do you know who will be the King?” Grandmother said. “Who is he? Who is he?” asked a kid. “Who? Who?” asked another kid. “It’s the servant” Grandmother said. “I want another story” a kid said. “Oh no you don’t, its late night already. It’s time for you sleep. We don’t let the bedbugs bite.”
