Got bored ages and decided to write a short story. Can’t remember the last time I sat down and wrote a story. May come back to it at later date and improve on it.
Winter night within the desert could hear the wind blowing slowly moving the desert sand dunes. Tonight, desert dunes would bear witness something else returning from the deep hopes of the desert. Small torch light could be seen coming from three figures riding camels moving across the sand. Figures moved across the winter desert during the dark night moving closer to the fort near the dunes. Within the middle of the desert was old ancient fort which housed various travellers for generations. Ancient fort was meant to be ruins however was repaired well light with various figures moving. Figures moving towards the fort stopped in the middle of the desert, hidden behind the dunes set up for the night. Three got off the camels started to set up camp for the night. Story starts with the three figures starting camp for the night. Three figures wearing hooded began jumping off the camels. Two of the figures clearly smaller in height looking like young adults over adults. Third tallest figure took off his hood grey hair male clearly 60 years old to 70. Tall older male began to pull out something from his pocket throwing it on the ground couple metres to the right of the camels. Turned out to be golden small pocket watch began to start into white tent. Old male decided to attach the camels to the tent pole which was just created. Pulling aside the tent figures moved inside, old male moved inside holding his torch. Inside four chairs at the bottom of the beds, beds located at the top end of the tent. Two small figures sat down next to each other on the chairs pulled off the hoods hiding their faces. Old man sealed the tent shut and sat down on the chair, floor was carpet white. Sitting on the chair old man looked towards the two young adults sat next to him to the right. Empty chair next to him young adults started to wonder why in the middle of the night they was here. Old man pointed to the floor began to speak saying the following the words “Old dog still has tricks now let me tell you a story”. Young adults one male and female listened to him. Old man spoke again low friendly tone “Everything you been told even fairy tales have degree of truth behind them. Kingdom once had two princes both which are brothers, one went missing some say he was imprisoned within the fort near us for over 100 years. Brothers used to fight kingdom was split into two before one went missing. After going missing kingdom was united things looked better until youngest brother became a ruthless ruler. Older brother used to rule the kingdom with fair but firm hand however youngest wanted to become a god. However tonight we see the return of the fair king”
Tent began to open with figure entering young adults stared in shock towards this figure. Old man spoke “Hello King sorry it took so long to escape the children here been looking after your kingdom”
