THE LONG JOURNEY TO YOU
THE VILLAGE, THREE DISCIPLES AND A GUARD
This is just the story of a small village at the foot of a mountain. About five hundred years ago there was a small village that was famous. The village was at the foot of the mountain and the beautiful ocean was on the other side of the mountain. The village lived peacefully for hundreds of years. In the village there is a legend about the founder of the village.
The founder of the village was a religious man. Before the man came, the village land was just a dark dense forest and could not be visited even by humans. From the story circulating forest at the foot of the mountain is famous haunted because it is inhabited by many supernatural creatures. The founder of the village accidentally arrived at the land after choosing to wander for many years. Interested in the lush soil of the forest, overnight the man banished all the supernatural creatures that lived in the forest for a long time and began to open the forest as a village.
For many years, the man lived alone in the village. Live quietly and peacefully. Until the war broke out and three men came to his village wounded. The village's opening man was also known for his healing abilities and with that ability, the man healed three foreign men who came to his village.
Not long after, the three men became disciples of the village opener and began their lives as adopted children of the village opener. The opening man of the village taught his three disciples many things from agriculture, water, and even medicine. Somehow the healing ability of the village opener reached the ears of the people, but clearly people began to arrive at the village. Initially people who came just because they wanted to seek treatment, but for a long time people began to arrive to stay and settle down.
Three male disciples of the village founder then fell in love and married the immigrant woman. All three had offspring and were allowed to continue living there. Unfortunately one of the three disciples apparently had bad intentions in his heart. He continued to live in the village to steal heirlooms belonging to the village opener who was none other than his teacher.
The evil student had devised his cunning plan and launched his action to steal the heirloom belongings of his teacher, unfortunately the plan failed because his teacher had already kissed the evil intentions of his student.
As a result of that evil intention, the evil disciple and his descendants were expelled from the village and just before leaving, the village opener erases the man's memory of the location and name of the village in the hope that his evil pupil and his descendants will not return to his village.
At over a hundred years old, the opening man of the village finally exhaled. He died leaving a will to two of his students. One of his most patient students was bestowed with a small part of his abilities, unfortunately his descendants would only have one each generation and were given the hard task of guarding his two heirlooms. While the other student will be awarded many offspring and is tasked to preserve the village and guard the village along with the descendants of other students. Disciples with one descendant per generation will be bound to the village and will never be able to get out of the village despite having many special abilities. While the disciple who had many descendants, despite living like other humans, he had the freedom to get out of the village.
For several years, the two disciples and their descendants lived peacefully there. The descendants of the two disciples carried out their duties well despite several near-failures. Unfortunately one time the descendants of the evil disciple managed to find the village, getting into it by deceiving the villagers and intending to steal the heirloom belongings of his former teacher. The guardian-designation for the descendants of the patient disciple who possessed some of the abilities belonged to the village opener, knowing the evil intent. Just before the relic was taken and taken out of the village, the guard destroyed the village and everyone in it. Somehow the tsunami came and penetrated the mountain which became the village boundary with the ocean behind it. But clearly the village was destroyed overnight.
It is known that the guard who destroyed the entire village was the only female in the lineage of guards that ever existed and the name of the female guard was Madaharsa.
Grrr. Deon's hand shook reading what Virzha got for her request regarding Madaharsa. Whatisthis?? Why is it finally like this?? Deon lowered his head remembering how the face of Madaharsa in his dream that looked happy would turn sad.
“Niel!!” Deon called Niel.
“Ya?”
“I'm asking for Virzha's number. I want to talk to him myself.”
“Sure.” Niel opens his phone, searches for Virzha's contact number and gives it to Deon. “This.”
Deon signed Virzha's contact number and soon contacted Virzha.
“Halo, Virzha. It's me, Deon.
“Ya?”
“I've read what you sent to Niel. I want to ask you for help again. What can??” ask Deon.
“Tell me. As much as I can.”
“It might be difficult considering that the village is just a word of mouth story. But I'll work on it as much as I can.”
“I don't care how long it takes, but please work on.”
“I understand, I'll work on it.”
Clik. Deon ended his call with Niel and rested again. Deon's mind is now completely out of whack. Why is it finally like this?? The Madaharsa I knew in a dream would not be able to destroy the village and kill everyone. But ... the task is indeed. Deon shook his head because of his racy feeling. Critte, critter. Deon bit his finger which had become a bad habit when frputating.
“Deon!!”
“Ehm??” Deon gasped at Niel's call in a high tone at her. “Why??”
“Why did you bite your finger again?? Didn't I tell you to stop doing that??”
“Ahh!” Deon, unaware of his habit, immediately pulled his hand away from his mouth. “Sorry, I didn't realize!!”
“Replace with this!!” Niel gave the chocolate bar to Deon in exchange for his habit of biting fingers.
“Trims, Niels. You are my best manager.”
“Oke, the set is ready!!”
The screams of the film crew to all the actors and actresses who had been resting, were heard. Niel hastily called makeup artist Deon and asked her to do her makeup before returning to filming.
Deon tried to focus on the script before him. Deon did manage to do it: act well in front of everyone. It's just that Deon's mind keeps spinning his dreams along with Madaharsa.
Why do I keep feeling if something's wrong at the end of the story?? The madaharsa I know would never be able to do that! But ... But what if the end is true??
