The owl of wisdom

The owl of wisdom which was mentioned in Heracles first book: Heracles and the lion from Nemea - Hippocoon land. It was white statue standing on a pole in the hall of castle Methonia. It was the thing all newbies who came to Hippocoon land had to face. At the time, they came there, a ceremony would be held by professors to wake up the owl of the wisdom. When the owl of wisdom woke up, its appearence would change that entire of its body turned in gold. Each newbie would come in front of it then it would look through his or her soul to find out the abilities gods and goddesses did give the person. When the abilities were found out, the person would know the place he or she belong to, Zeusa, Aresan, Athenena or Herathyia. Honestly, the owl of wisdom was talkative creature. It talked many things, sneered and even thrightened the newbies it met by it saying. It even stared at them by the enormous eyes. However, it had never harmed anyone a little. Sometime, it also gave some newbies praises as it saw great abilities the people get and turned proud to say something about their future.
The other ability of the owl of wisdom was to create a light shield surround castle Methonia. When professor Finn himself woke it up, it would ask him that whether he was sure and not to use the shield. As professor Finn said yes, it would few upon castle Methonia, kept fluttering at their for long time until waves of light spreading out from it covered entire the place. Later, it turned freeze in the midair and became a part of the light shield after that. The shield was the ultimate protection for people in castle Methonia front of intruders.

Chapter 3: The owl of wisdom (part 2)

“A proud boy.” said the owl of wisdom, “Let me see you.” It flew slowly around Hank, “Your god Ares seem to favor you. A vulture symbol under was your ear and a spear symbol was on your arm. You are wise boy who know to come after fight and get the spoils. However, you are also great in combat if you need to do it. You are a good boy will sever your god well in future.” said the owl of wisdom. “Please go to the table closest to your left. It’s the place for Aresians.” Hank made his way to his family where many people had stayed there. “Bravo!”, “Great boy!” said others there. They shook Hank’s hand, greeted with high five. The place turned crowded in minutes and made Heracles not happy much.  Next after Hank was Morela who was also sat on the same boat with Heracles. Morela came from Delphi the city was protected by god Apollo, the sun god. Of course, she was blessed by her god, a symbol of the sun appeared brilliantly at the middle of her head in golden light.

The first time Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda met Ham, the scepter maker

Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda had come to the first floor. They was staying outsider a closed wooden door. It made them a little hesitant as they stood there. Then Heracles walked ahead, knocked on the door. “Come in.” a tired voice spread out. Heracles pulled the door. He, Gwen and Amelinda walked in. There was a rather dark room lit by some oil lamps spread out gentle blue light. The room was narrow, made of wooden and filled full by a lot of stuff and most of them were scepters. “What do you want?” said a man sitting on an elbow chair standing between scepters by the walkway along the room.

Chapter 1: Roger left Hippocoon (next 2)

 “Of course, I have to grow up and get stronger.” yelled Dai. He puffed out his chest proudly. Heracles and Gwen almost burst in laugh but they could stop it.   “I feel good to hear you say that. I was afraid that you could not get used to living here.” said Amelinda ahead. “Don’t worry. I’m okay, just can’t appear in front of strangers.” said Lily. “I think it’s good for you and including others this moment.” Heracles spoke up. “Of course, I know it.” said Lily at one, “Honestly, I also don’t like to meet strangers.” She smiled. There had a simple wooden table with some chair inside the nursery. They were set under the foliage of an old tree. “Sit down.” said Lily. “So what bring you to here?” she added, looked over them. Heracles, Gwen and Lily took chairs and sat down. Dai promptly left Gwen’s hand, leapt on the table and hurriedly went to his seat. There had a set of table and chair small and lovely on that table. He stayed neatly on there. Some white bright spots gli...
