Hippocoon land

“But, how Heracles?” asked Amelinda, staring at her friend. Heracles turned in silence he really doesn’t know how to know where the walkway leading to. Amelinda took her eyes from him. “There had one thing I know surely that some people are living in the other side of this forest.” said Amelinda, breaking the silence. “What we need is to go straight, we will come to the other side.” When she was talking, she looked at Gwen and then Heracles observing them. Both Heracles and Gwen didn’t talk in seconds. Amelinda still watched on them. “Okay,” Gwen spoke up, “will follow your words. We will go in tomorrow morning.” Heracles also agreed with them.  Dew appeared some drops of water dropped on their shoulders. It was very cold outside. The decided to go in their tent and rested. Another night was going to pass another night they were kept to stay in a strange place. *** Meanwhile, in a place far away Heracles and the others, everything seemed very chaotic. Hurried footsteps, the calls fille

Winds blew harder and turned cooler in afternoon. One cold wind swept on Heracles’s face and made him wake up. He opened his eyes, managed to sit up then turned the side to see his friend. His friend, Gwen that moment had slipped off the trunk and completely lied on ground. His body shrank because of the cold. Heracles raised his hand up, reached on Gwen’s shoulder. He shook it. “Gwen,” he called, “Wake up. Don’t sleep on ground.”  Gwen’s body moved. He woke up and realized that he was lying on ground. Immediately he sat up. “Why do I lie on ground Heracles?” he squealed.  “I don’t know. You must slip off the trunk when you sleep.” said Heracles. “It must…”said Gwen, nodding. He raised his head, looked far away and suddenly saw a familiar figure standing between standing stones. “Ahh! Is it Amelinda.” he spoke up.  “Yes, she is.” said Heracles. His eyes rested on Amelinda’s back. “What is she doing there?” Gwen squealed, “Go and see what she is doing.” he added and immediately stood up

“It’s too long. Where did you go?” squealed Amelinda. She was impatient. “You said that you only went in short time but it has been noon now.” she added. Her voice was still high. “It’s because of them.” said Gwen grinning. He moved toward her, put his bag down, opened it and showed her yellow oranges inside. “Where do you get them?” squealed Amelinda. “In forest.” Gwen answered, “We found many orange trees there and spend time to pick them. They are planted by someone. Oranges are sweet and succulent”  “It also didn’t take you much time like that.”  Amelinda spoke. “Yes, it’s not all.” said Heraccles calmly, “We found some paths there and decided to follow them and take a look. One of them is very long. I think it’s the path leading cross this forest.” “Are you sure that the path leading cross the forest.” said Amelinda quickly. “No, I’m not sure but I believe.” said Heracles. “I and Gwen did explore it about half an hour but we can’t ensure the thing.” he added. “Amelinda.” cried Gwe

“It’s sweet and succulent.” said Heracles, chewing. “Yes, it is.” said Gwen. He completely agreed with Heracles. “At least, they are the planted orange trees, not the wild orange trees we found yesterday.” he added, still focused his orange tree’s brand. With one hand pulling the branch down, he managed to pick as many as ripen oranges he could. Short time later, Heracles and Gwen picked about forty or fifty oranges. They put them into a bag then strode heading deeply into forest to explore and also find some water. Heracles and Gwen discovered a small walkway as they passed the orange trees. Though grasses did covered on the walkway, it’s still found out. They decided to follow the walkway. Stepping on grasses they went. Shrubs and sprigs growing outwards made the walkway turn narrow. They had to push shrubs and sprigs aside to go. They slowly went in deep forest and at last to be prevented. There had a stream at the end of the walkway; it’s wide and looked not too deep. They stopped
