  • THE Mythical beast OF THE NORTH

    For quite a while in the past, as elderly individuals have told me, there was a horrendous beast who emerged from the North and devastated entire lots of nations, eating up the two men and monsters; and this beast was disastrous to such an extent that it was expected that except if help came, no living animal would be left on the essence of the earth. It had a body like a bull and legs like a frog, with two short front legs and two long ones behind; furthermore, it had a tail like a snake, ten spans long. At the point when it moved, it bounced like a frog, and with each spring, it covered a portion of a mile of ground. Luckily, its propensity was to stay for quite a long time in a similar spot and not to continue on till the entire area was eaten up. Nothing could chase it, on the grounds that its entire body was covered with scales, which were more enthusiastic than stone or metal; its two extraordinary eyes sparkled around evening time and even by day, similar to the most splendid lights, and any individual who had the evil karma to investigate those eyes became, in a manner of speaking, entranced and was obliged to surge voluntarily into the beast's jaws. In this manner, the Mythical serpent had the option to take care of the two men and monsters without minimal difficulty to itself, as it did not have to move from where it was lying. Every one of the adjoining lords had offered rich awards to anybody who ought to have the option to obliterate the beast, either forcibly or by charm, and many had taken a stab, yet entirely completely pitiably fizzled. When an extraordinary timberland wherein the Mythical serpent lay was set ablaze, the backwoods were burned to the ground; however, the fire didn't cause the beast the least damage. Nonetheless, there was a practice among the insightful men of the country that the Winged serpent might be overwhelmed by one who had Lord Solomon's seal ring, whereupon a mystery was engraved. This engraving would empower anybody who was savvy enough to interpret it to figure out how the Winged serpent could be annihilated. Nobody knew where the ring was covered up, nor was there any magician or learned man to be found who might have the option to make sense of the engraving.
