"Long, long ago there once was an old man. This old man wrote the book of the five colors. This book was only given to those who needed it the most. Along with this book it told you how to create life. It also told you how to end life too. Although this book was once abused by the powers of evil. Havoc broke out upon the world until a hero arose from the darkness to save the world." Jason's mom read from a story book.
"Mom is this story real?" Jason asked.
"Well it's true. There was an old man who wrote a book on magic spells. But, this is only a wise-tail." She responded trying to get Jason to go sleep. "And upon the arrival of this hero, he had help from a noble army. So noble that even kings bowed down to them. When the darkness rose to take on these heroes there was a great war that only one side would win. Only faith and power could defeat the evil. Many people died in this war. Some more innocent than others. But, few deserved to die. In the end the powers of good arose over the darkness and suppressed into a point of vanishing. The heroes got honored and the world lived in peace. Now go to sleep."
"Okay mommy." Jason said as he pulled the covers over his head. He closed his eyes and fell asleep as his mother blew out the candles.
Jason woke up early that morning. Now he was older and in his mid-teens. He had to do a lot more work now that his father got wounded in a war. He took care of the farm with his father's supervision. He enjoyed the work. It kept the boredom away. Today he was really excited. It was the annual farmer's auction and he has the honor of selling his first cow. As Jason was getting dressed he had thoughts of how much money he could make. Of course they are selling their best cow and she gives three gallons a day so who would not pay a good price for a cow like her.
"I see you are awake" Robert, Jason's father said as he came into the room using his cane. "I am proud of your work this year."
"And it is an honor to sell your best cow today dad." Jason said as he put on his shoes. "Too bad mom isn't here to see me now."
"Yes your mom would be proud of you. Just remember she is looking at you from haven. She will always be proud of you." Robert said before blowing his nose. "Your aunt and cousins will be at the auction to see you."
"Sweet," Jason said as he stood up. "Would it be okay if I went to their house tonight?"
"I don't care as long as you can talk the boys down the street to do your chores for the day." He said as he picked up a book. "Ah this is the book that your mom used to read to you when you were younger."
"Yeah it was about the darkness and a hero that stopped the darkness. "Jason replied.
"Well let's go you need to get the cattle ready for the auction." Robert said as he walked out of the room.
