3 - The discovery of the secret

They started flying, Ana was following Tod because he knew the way to the Mountains of Aris, his home.
Ana was looking at the sunset, it was very beautiful, the ocean was moving a little because of the wind, some fish jumped off the water and came back inside it.
There were birds close to Ana and Tod, one bird looked at Tod with some curiosity, asking itself if Tod was a real bird or not.
After some time flying, Ana and Tod arrived at the Mountains of Aris, Sophia was there on the shore of the beach, looking at them.
They both landed at the sand and Sophia looked at Tod, smiling, happy to have her son back.
"Thank you so much, Ana, for bringing my son back, I was very worried," said Sophia, smiling while looking at Ana, she hugged Tod tight.
"I'm sorry for worrying you, mom," said Tod, looking sad at Sophia.
"It's okay my dear, let's eat, food is ready," said Sophia, starting to walk to the village of the Kódeks.
"Can Ana stay, mom?" asked Tod.
"Of course, son, she is welcome here," said Sophia, smiling at Ana.
"Come on," said Tod smiling lightly while looking at Ana.
The trio started walking to the village of the Kódeks.
Ana looked at the crystals and the Kódeks of the village, everyone walking around and doing stuff.
Sophia started walking to the canteen, Tod, and Ana following her.
They arrived at the canteen, Ana and Tod sat together at a table, Sophia brought some food for them, they started to eat together.
"Here is very good, at the Mountains of Aris, it is a good place to spend some time," said Tod, looking at Ana.
"Yeah, I agree, here is very good Tod, hehe," said Ana, smiling while looking at Tod.
"Hey, Ana, is there anything you're interested in? Like, learning something new..." asked Tod while eating sometimes.
"Yes, I wanted to discover the mystery of the crystals, I and my race doesn't know how they appeared on the ground or what is their origin," said Ana.
"Oh, we know the mystery of them, but people here don't care about it too much, it's too mundane for them.
We already use the crystals in a way, but I want you to discover by yourself, hehe.
Take a visit to our library, probably there's a book with the origin story of the crystals, but we have a lot of books, hehe," said Tod, smiling.
"Okay, thanks, Tod, I'll take a look later, thank you for receiving me here," said Ana.
"No problem, Ana, you're a friend to me, is always good to have you around," said Tod, smiling gently at Ana.
"Hehe, thanks," replied Ana, smiling too.
They both finished eating, Sophia said she was going to sleep a little at her hut, Ana thanked them for receiving her there and waved her hand.
Tod said that he was going to play some ball with the kids in the center of the village.
"Go there if you need anything, Ana," said Tod, smiling.
"Thanks, Tod," said Ana, smiling.


Then Ana started walking in the village, she asked a Kódek where the library was, he pointed her the way.
She started flying to the library, Ana arrived there and flew high in the library, she picked up four books to read.
The fairy sat at one table in the library and started reading, she was reading a book of the story of the Kódeks, maybe there was something about the crystals there.
She grabbed some fruits from the canteen some minutes ago, before she, Tod, and Sophia ate, she left those fruits close to her on the table in case she became hungry.
The book told the story of the Kódeks, their secrets, how they lived, how they arrived at the Mountains of Aris.
Ana looked to her right, there was a Soul Wasp there, reading a book, she had orange hair and an orange body, her body was shining.
(I imagine the Orange Soul Wasp being the Flame Princess from the cartoon Adventure Time, but with fairy wings and a shining body like a soul.)
Ana thought that she was so beautiful, so shiny, she liked how the Soul Wasps looked, they looked like angels.
Then Ana continued reading her book, the Soul Wasp flew close to her, she looked at the book that Ana was reading.
"Hey, what are you reading?" asked the Soul Wasp.
"Oh, hey," said Ana, getting a little surprised, she did not see the Soul Wasp coming close to her, "I'm reading the story of the Kódeks".
"Oh, that's interesting, they have a pretty great and rich story, I liked to read it," said the Soul Wasp.
"Hehe, yeah, I agree... Are you reading something?" asked Ana.
"Yes, I'm reading a book that tells about the Soul Wasps and the Fairies," replied the Soul Wasp.
"Oh, that sounds interesting, can I read it too?" asked Ana.
"Of course! You're a fairy right?" asked the Soul Wasp.
"Yes, I'm a fairy," replied Ana.
"Oh, I always thought Fairies were quite cute, their wings are so cute and beautiful, ehehe," said the Soul Wasp.
"Hehe, thanks, I always thought Soul Wasps were cute too, their body is really beautiful, their light.
The way they shine, it is marvelous, astounding to look at," said Ana, smiling to the Soul Wasp, a little flushed.
"Hehe, I'm happy that you think that, thanks," said the Soul Wasp, smiling while being a little flushed.
"Maybe we can switch books if you want, I would like to read the story of the Kódeks too, again, hehe," said the Soul Wasp.
"Okay, that sounds good, can I ask your name?" asked Ana.
"Yes, my name is Rose," replied the Soul Wasp.
"My name is Ana," said Ana.
"Okay... I'll continue reading my book, tell me when you wanna read it okay?" asked Rose.
"Okay, thanks, Rose," said Ana, smiling at her.
Rose walked back to her chair and continued reading the book that tells about the Soul Wasps and the Fairies.
Ana continued reading the book of the story of the Kódeks.


Ana looked at Rose and asked, "Hey, Rose, do you know anything about the crystals?"
"Yes, actually, I already read about them in here, it was the reason why I wanted to go here, it's because the Kódeks know the secret of the crystals," said Rose, getting up and walking close to Ana.
"The chapter where they tell about the crystals is the fourth chapter of the book, on page one hundred thirteen," said Rose, looking at the book of the story of the Kódeks.
Then Ana moved a few pages, trying to find the fourth chapter and page one hundred thirteen.
She found it and thanked Rose, then Rose walked back to her chair, sitting and continuing to read her book.
Ana started reading chapter four, which reads:
"At the beginning of the Kódek civilization, before the Big Curse of the Temacians, an evil race, the Kódeks have migrated to an island.
They found a lot of crystals on that island, coming from the ground, some small ones, still growing.
They were very beautiful, there were red, blue, cyan, pink, orange, yellow, white, black, and green crystals.
The Kódeks did not know where those crystals came from.
But after some Kódek Scientists and Researchers studied the crystals and the environment, they found out that a great entity planted those crystals there, with crystal seeds.
They do not have crystal seeds there and do not know how to obtain them, but they still grew in there and spread.
The Kódeks started building houses and huts on that island, making their home there, planting food and vegetables.
Some Kódeks were in charge of breaking and cleaning the crystals, for them to not invade and take over the island, they could break houses if they grow close to the walls.
One day, a Scientist got a pickax and mined one crystal, it was blue, he wanted to find out what the crystals were made from.
The Kódek scientist grabbed that small blue crystal and studied it, he discovered that it had Potassium (K) in it.
His name was Heckler, he started doing scientific research, giving the blue crystal to Kódeks and analyzing how their body changed, if they had more energy through the day.
He discovered that eating the blue crystals, which had the element Potassium in them, helped Kódeks become stronger and grow faster, it helped them have energy through the day to do stuff.
Heckler was a great Kódek Scientist, he discovered a lot of things.
He continued mining and testing the other crystals, each one of them had a different element and helped the body differently.
Every Kódek nowadays eats crystals just because of his discoveries, of how great those crystals were to the body.
Other races do not have the habit of eating crystals, they really should try if they have the chance."
"Wow, that is a lot to take in, that is so interesting! I have to tell mom and the other fairies about this, they're gonna be crazy!" Ana whispered.
Rose heard her whisper and looked at her, saying, "Yeah, the story is awesome right?
We Soul Wasps eat crystals every day, but we have some kind of medic prescription or some sort of balance.
You don't wanna eat too much of them, bad things could happen".
"Really? That's pretty cool Rose, I'm gonna tell the Fairies about this," said Ana.
"Yeah, hehe, it is really good, I think the Fairies have crystals in the Crystal Lands right?" asked Rose.
"Yes, we have, that will be easy for us, hehe.
We have to cut them every day because they grow fast, they could take over the island," replied Ana, smiling at Rose.
"Hey, can I read your book now please?" asked Rose.
"Of course, I already read the interesting part, hehe," said Ana.
Then Rose walked close to Ana with the book of the Soul Wasps and Fairies in her hand, they switched books.
Ana started reading the book of the Soul Wasps and the Fairies, and Rose started reading the book about the story of the Kódeks.


After some hours of reading, Ana was a little tired, she stretched and ate something, after that, she put the book back in its place on a bookshelf.
Ana started walking out of the library and waved goodbye to Rose, the Soul Wasp, wanting to meet with her again soon, Ana thought that she was interesting.
She walked to the center of the village and looked for Tod.
Ana found him and started walking close to him, "Hey, Tod, I'm gonna go back home, I need to tell the Fairies about the importance of the crystals," said Ana.
"Oh, okay, Ana, come with me, I'll show you where my hut is so you can say bye to my mother," said Tod.
"Okay," said Ana smiling.
They both started walking to the hut where Sophia, the mother of Tod, was sleeping.
They arrived there and Sophia woke up.
"Hey, Sophia, I'm gonna go back to the Crystal Lands to tell the Fairies about the importance of the crystals.
So I thought it would be good for me to say bye to you first," said Ana.
"Oh, okay my dear," said Sophia, getting up, then she turned into her human form and hugged Ana, smiling.
Ana hugged her back, "Thank you, Ana, for bringing my son back home, you're always welcome here okay?" asked Sophia.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Sophia, and thank you for receiving me here, you're so kind, hehe," said Ana, smiling, "It would be a pleasure to go back here for a visit".
"No problem my dear, see you soon, Ana!" said Sophia, smiling.
"See you soon, Sophia!" said Ana smiling.
Then Ana hugged Tod tight in his human form and smiled at him, "Good luck on your survival things, see you soon, Ana," said Tod smiling.
"Good luck for you too in your survival things Tod, see you soon!" said Ana, smiling.


Then Ana started flying back to the Crystal Lands.
She arrived there and all the Fairies greet her, smiling, saying they missed her and that she is an important part of the race of the Fairies.
Lindsay gave Ana a big and tight hug, Panda too, they smiled at Ana.
Ana started walking to the hut of her family with Panda and Lindsay.
Jena, Lindsay, and Panda started eating dinner on the table.
Ana smiled and sat with them to eat.
"How was it to be in the Mountains of Aris, where the Kódeks lives, Ana?" asked Jena.
"It was very good, mom, it was a pretty interesting place, I discovered the secrets of the crystals there, reading a book that they had in their library," said Ana while looking at Jena.
"The secret is that the crystals were discovered first by the Kódeks, a Kódek Scientist called Heckler discovered that the crystals had elements in them.
The elements that existed in the crystals gave great health benefits to the body, it helped it grow stronger and faster," said Ana.
"That is pretty interesting my dear, I will tell some fairies to mine the crystals and collect them so we can get the benefit of those elements.
We are gonna make some tests to see if that works, then, if the tests say that it works, we are going to start eating crystals too, along with food," said Jena smiling.
After that, Ana finished eating and walked to her bedroom to sleep a little, she slept, listening to an owl, the water of the ocean hitting the shore.
And the wind blowing on the trees of the island.
After sleeping a little, Ana wakes up and goes to the kitchen, drinking some water.
Then she starts flying to the beach, she sees Lindsay on the shore, looking at the ocean.
Ana flies close to her and sits beside her.
"Hey, Lindsay, what are you doing here?" asks Ana, curious.
"I'm just thinking, sis, it's that I feel stuck on this island... I'm always here, just doing the stuff that normal fairies do.
Just flying, collecting stuff, making magic and spells, playing ball..." said Lindsay, looking at the ground, a little sad.
"Oh... I understand... I felt that too some months ago, that's why I left... That's why I always leave, it's because I feel stuck in here, and I don't think that I'm meant to be here...
Of course, this is where I was born, and I should visit here, but I don't need to stay here... Do you understand?" asked Ana.
"Yes..." replied Lindsay, who hugged Ana tight and closed her eyes.
Ana embraced Lindsay and smiled a little, closing her eyes.
"So... What should I do, sis?" asked Lindsay, opening her eyes.
"Do you want to travel through islands with me when I go to them?
This way you can think a little and reflect, think about what you want to do.
And stay a little away from the opinions, thoughts, and expectations of others," asked Ana, breaking out from the hug and smiling at Lindsay.
"Of course I want sis! It would be awesome, thanks...
It would be good to take some time off to relax and think about life, reflect, hehe," replied Lindsay, hugging Ana again and smiling a lot.
"Hehe, okay, sis, it will be very good to have your company, do you want me to teach you survival skills?" asked Ana.
"Yes, I want to learn it with the best!" said Lindsay, smiling while looking at Ana.
"Hehe, I'm not too good at surviving, sis, but thank you.
Let's go to sleep?" asked Ana smiling.
"Yes, little sis," replied Lindsay.
They both started walking to the hut of their parents, Ana said goodnight to Lindsay, and Lindsay said goodnight back.
They walked to their bedrooms, laid on the bed, and slept.
