Long ago, in a deep, forgotten forest in the Ajako kingdom, there lay a mystic hidden treasure beyond the imagination of man. The tale of this hidden mystic treasure has been passed down from generation to generation by those who still believe in its magic.
Thousands of years ago, there lived a great wizard named Takakuta, who was the guardian of the forest and its inhabitants. He had a beautiful gold sparkly ring on his left middle finger; on it there was an inscription written in Greek translated as peace, love, and humanity that radiates a beautiful shinning light that shines far beyond the forest to the neighboring communities, creating peace, love, harmony, and security.
When Takakuta was about to die, he kept his most treasured ring hidden somewhere in the forest.
As time went on, the legend of wizard Takakuta faded into a myth, and the mystic treasure he left behind became a desire for everyone. Everyone wanted to get hold of whatever treasure he had because they thought it would make them rich and powerful. There were tales that no one could ever find where his hidden treasure was, except those with a pure heart.
One faithful evening, a young, poor girl named Kakuma overheard some hunters whispering about the treasure and its worth. Tired of all the negative happenings in the community, like famine, sickness, poor harvest, unfavorable economic conditions, hunger, death, etc. and with nothing but hope in her heart, she embarked on this heroic journey into the deep, enchanted forest. Initially, as she set out on her journey, her plans were to get into the forest, find the treasure (whatever that was; it's not like she knew what she was looking for, as no one had ever described it for her or has she overheard it being described to someone else), successfully take the treasure out of the forest, get someone who could estimate its value or current market price, find a rich suitable buyer who was ready, willing and able to buy it, sell it, and live happily ever after on the proceeds of the sales of the treasure with her family and some friends. If not for anything, she was sure; at least from the tales she had heard over the years; that the treasure was very valuable and it was worth the risk of her life in getting it out of that forest. With all these in mind, she set out on her journey, more determined to see it through to the end, at whatever cost. Her resolute willpower made her hell bent on accomplishing the task before, and with her eyes set as a flint, she headed for the forest. Though the challenge ahead was filled with numerous uncertainties, she was confident it would end her successful return from the forest with the treasure in her hand.
On her way, she ran into a number of challenges. She encountered bandits and kidnappers, but narrowly escaped and also helped some people that were kidnapped too. She met beggars that were hungry and shared the little she had with them. She came across animals and birds that were wounded by hunters, and she took care of them. All this was a test of her character.
Kakuma's kind heart and good deeds were spread through the forest by the birds, insects, and animals. The trees were excited to see her such that they had created a walkway for her, and the animals and wind led her to the hidden treasure location with singing and dancing. The forest that had been calm and quiet for centuries was brought back to life by the presence of pure and innocent Kakuma.
After several weeks of walking tiredlessly, Kakuma found herself standing in front of a beautiful tree. She had never seen anything as magnificent as that in her entire life; the leaves seemed to be filled with different colors like a rainbow, and the branches were brimming with dazzling fruits of different kinds. The atmosphere surrounding the tree was magical; she felt peace within her. She thought to herself that she had never felt this kind of warmth and peace before. At the foot of the tree lay this small, sophisticated, and exquisite box.
The moment Kakuma opened the box, different rays of light with different colors embraced her, and she could see what wizard Takakuta looked like, and it felt like he was inside her, as she could remember what his life felt like. She had all his memories, and it was at that moment that she realized that his mystic treasured ring was not about wealth and riches like the tales going about in the community but rather the ability to keep every living creature, both humans and animals, to live in peace, love, and harmony together.
The moment Kakuma wore the mystic ring on her finger, the great wizard's power was reignited, and its light shone through the forest to the neighboring kingdoms, restoring peace, humanity, and love.
The legend of the wizard Takakuta lived on, but not as a tale for riches and wealth, but rather as proof that humans and animals can coexist and actually live in love and peace.
