Eliza: The determinant

Beauty with courage

By AsmaPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Once upon a time, there was a village nestled in the heart of a vast and enchanted forest. The villagers lived in peace and harmony with the creatures of the forest, and they were happy.

One day, a powerful sorcerer appeared, claiming that the villagers had trespassed into his domain. The sorcerer put a wicked spell upon the village, cursing the land and its inhabitants. The once-beautiful village was now shrouded in darkness and despair, and the once-happy villagers became sad and sickly.

They were in desperate need of a hero, someone brave enough to face the sorcerer and break the curse. And so, the villagers put out a call for a champion, someone who would be willing to risk everything to save their home.

Many brave souls answered the call, but they all failed to break the curse. The sorcerer was too powerful, and his spells were too strong.

One day, a young girl named Eliza came to the village. She was small, but her eyes shone with a bright light, and the villagers saw something special in her. They told her about the curse and the sorcerer, and they begged her to help them.

Eliza was hesitant at first, but she saw the villagers' sadness and knew she couldn't ignore their plight. She promised to do everything in her power to save the village and its people.

The villagers were hesitant, doubting Eliza's abilities, but she was determined. The young girl set out to find the sorcerer in the heart of the enchanted forest.

The journey was long and treacherous. Eliza had to avoid traps and navigate through dangerous terrains. But her determination and perseverance kept her going. She didn't stop, not even when she was exhausted and afraid.

Finally, Eliza reached the sorcerer's castle, a dark and imposing structure with dark magic emanating from its walls. She approached the castle's gates, but they were locked. Eliza took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and focused all her energy on the lock. She whispered a spell and the gates opened.

Inside the castle, Eliza found the sorcerer. He was a tall, dark figure with a menacing presence. The young girl was filled with fear, but she steeled herself and stepped forward.

The sorcerer laughed and sneered at the young girl, telling her that she would be just like the others that she would fail to break the curse. But Eliza was determined. She stood up to the sorcerer, refusing to back down.

The sorcerer cast spells at her, but Eliza dodged them. She concentrated, drawing upon everything she had learned about magic in her journey. And then, she chanted a spell, the most powerful she knew. The magic glowed within her, revealing Eliza's true potential. She broke the curse, and the village was bathed in light once again.

The villagers rejoiced, and they thanked Eliza for saving them. She became their hero, admired for her courage and strength.

And so, Eliza's journey came to an end. She had journeyed into the unknown, faced her fears, and emerged victorious. The young girl proved that even the smallest person can accomplish the greatest things that true strength comes from within. She showed that magic is not just something that is given to us; it is within us, waiting to be used.

From that day on, the enchanted forest was no longer a place of fear or danger. It was a magical place, full of life and wonder, and the villagers lived in peace and harmony with nature.

And whenever there were challenges that they couldn't overcome, they looked to Eliza, their hero, and reminded themselves that if they have courage and determination, anything is possible.
