Chapter 26

In search of the golden star

The children search all round the island for the star and also the adults also tried to find it, before the rains came. Then the group of villagers noticed that it was beginning to rain and needed to find it fast before the rain fell harder. Paima then saw a beam of light peeping through the clouds and she ran towards the beam. Then she noticed something shining in the sand and want to investigate to see what it was. What she saw in the long grass a golden point sticking out of the sand and the rest was buried. Paima dig into the sand and recovered the buried item and discovered it was the golden star, just in the nick of time when the rains started to fall heavy. Paima ran to tell the others excitedly telling them she had found the golden star that had been buried in the sand. Paima was jumping up and down with excitement, saying, ‘I found it, I found it, the golden star’ The golden star was much larger than the other stars,
Flower said, Well done Paima now we must work fast as we don’t have much time, come this way. Bring the bronze and the silver stars from the science hut and the two children ran to the hut Paima got the silver star and Bobo got the bronze star and followed Flower.
The small tribe with all the fairies followed Flower and she took them to a room they had never noticed before. Flower went over to a wall and took down a rainbow coloured type wand that had 3 slots that were star shaped. Flower asked the children to hand her the stars, first she took the bronze star from Bobo and put it in the left slot that was made special for it, and then she took the silver and put it in the right slot. Then she finely put the golden star in between the bronze and silver. At this point the stars give off a glittery light that sparkled in the light and it seemed to have a light of it’s own.
Flower said, ‘We must get to the most southern part of the island for it to work and we must do it before the rains stops come quickly, as they followed Flower, the rain seemed to be lessening and they had to hurry. Then Flower as she chanted the magic words in Latin (Lithuanian: Translated on google could not get Latin)as she pointed the wand at the centre of the wall:

I pieprasīt vētras par okeāna uzturēties bay kā es izmantotu šo rīku, lai saglabātu šo salu droša no kaitējuma

As soon as Flower said these words astonishing thing happened. First they felt the ground beneath their feet seemed to vibrate and move. Then as they watched the walls seemed to melt away and the land and the beach seemed to grow bigger as the tides moved out as if the land was reclaiming it’s land from the seas. The rains stopped and the sun came out. The land that was shrinking was once again whole. The tribe could see for miles and miles. Yet it was so vast could only see so far as it disappear into the horizon.
‘Wow’ said Kon, I did not realised your land was so vast’.
‘Yes’ said Flower. The seas have claimed our land for many years, now we have claimed it back, with your help and with out your help none of this would be possible. Flower added. It is your land as will as ours, you are welcome to live here and to bring up your children.
But where would we live as we cannot intrude on you any longer’. said Kai.
We will show you some parts of our land where you would like to live and stay’. Flower and Kamali took them on a tour of the land and the small tribe choose the southeast part of the land to live. They soon settled down. There were huts to build and they needed food which there was plenty of fruit trees and the farmers fished. Kai and Kali had many more children before they reach 50 They even had three set of triplets and two set of twins. When Paima turned 18 she married Bobo and had many children of her own. The population over many Isola years grew very large and soon many moved to other parts of the land that where given to them to live.
