Download or read book The Shadow Sphinx's Riddle written by AQEEL AHMED and published by AQEEL AHMED. This book was released on 2024-02-08 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shadow Sphinx's Riddle Solving the riddles of a shadow sphinx to stop it from casting the land into darkness. This story tells of an amazing journey full of mystery, hardship, and the strength of community. It's a touching story that kids will love and learn from, showing how important bravery, friendship, and knowledge are in getting through hard times. Summary: The land of Sunbeam used to be bright, but it became dark when a shadow sphinx cast a terrible spell that made the whole world dark forever. The only way to get out of this sadness was to figure out a set of difficult problems that the Sphinx had put together. During this very important time, three brave friends—Leo, Mia, and Toby—stepped up because they were determined to bring light back to their home country. Their plan to face the Sphinx and break its spell would test their bravery, social skills, and intellectual abilities. The three travelers ran into a number of problems along the way that pushed them to their limits. The Mystic Mountains gave them hard problems to solve, the River of Reflections showed them what they were really thinking, and the Whispering Woods let the wind whisper secrets to them. Every job was like a puzzle that had to be solved. Leo, Mia, and Toby learned the value of working together, the courage to face uncertainty, and the ability to see past what seems to be true. Their journey brought out hidden traits in each other and helped them understand each other and themselves better. It had elements of both inside and outside. The Labyrinth of Shadows, the Cave of Echoes, and the Garden of Whispers all served as reminders of how hard their job was and how mysterious their surroundings were. In the Valley of Mists and the Library of Lost Books, they learned from old stories that had been lost. This meant that they broke through the fog. At the Sphinx's Lair, where the adventure came to an end, Sunbeam's fate relied on how she solved the last puzzle. The sphinxes' job was complete when they finished their last task. The sun came up, marking the start of a new day for Sunbeam and its people. The story of Leo, Mia, and Toby's triumphant return was a beacon of hope and a reminder that good will always win over evil, that working together can get things done, and that real strength comes from having the guts to ask hard questions, the smarts to answer them, and the friendship to get you through the worst times. The people of Sunbeam are still moved by their story, which is about bravery, determination, and the strength of the human spirit. People have learned a lot from it and made a lot of friends. Chapter 1: The Spell of Darkness. In the lovely world of Sunbeam, where the sun's warm rays lit up everything with happiness and brightness, sudden change rushed across the sky. It wasn't like the calm night that comes after every day; this change was more like a thick, never-ending shadow that fell over the sky and covered the morning. It never got to the sky's orange and pink colors, which used to wake the birds up in the morning. Instead, a cold gloom remained, turning day into night so that not a single star could be seen. People from Sunbeam were used to living in a world full of light. All of a sudden, they were surrounded by a strange, cold darkness. People in the area talked about a mysterious being called the "shadow sphinx." This being was said to have such powerful skills that it could throw a dark shadow over the sun. This thing, which was hiding in a dark cave, had used magic so strong that light couldn't get through. It made Leo, Mia, and Toby feel excited. They were three friends who were both brave and interested. They knew that waiting for the sun to come out again wasn't going to be enough. People were set on being the ones to act because something had to be done. They got together and talked about the shadow sphinx and its mysteries. The soft light from a candle left a shadow on their cheeks. It was said that the sphinx liked puzzles and problems, and the only way to bring back Sunbeam's light was to break its spell. The friends knew that their journey would be full of secrets and problems, but the thought of their house staying dark was too much for them to bear. Leo, Mia, and Toby set out to find the shadow sphinx and face it with bravery and knowledge. They were determined to do this. They knew that the journey ahead would be hard and that the puzzles would test their minds and souls. But they also knew that the darkness would end eventually. They thought that if they worked together, the light would come back on. Their trip showed that friendship, hope, and the desire to learn could light up the world, even in the darkest times. It was more than just a quest to save Sunbeam. With the legend map in hand and the resolve to face whatever lay ahead, the three set out into the unknown, ready to face the darkness and show the light that lies beyond fear and doubt.

Book excerpt: Persephonice is given the mission of distracting the shadow elves who are bound to learn what is blocking their water source before they discover a space ship is sitting in the middle of their river. That's how all the trouble begins. Persephonice is an overseer--an observer and recorder of information about inhabitants of civilized worlds. Only she's lost her lifemate and cannot be an overseer without one. She's given a second chance if she can prove she's worthy if she can survive an inhospitable planet inhabited by elves and other mythical creatures she's only read about, very little of which is known of them except that they constantly battle amongst themselves and are not civilized enough to safely observe. The shadow elf, Dracolin, a warrior given the task of learning what is blocking their water source, doesn't expect to find the most unusual creature he's ever encountered--a red-haired, green-eyed land-bound mermaid. That's only the beginning. She understands and can speak his language, falls off cliffs without injuring herself, and swims like a mermaid--without the fishtail. Everyone is intrigued with her--except some fear her uniqueness and want to destroy her. That is the problem with observing uncivilized worlds.

Everyone who has come to see the tapestry take shape has marvelled at the young woman's skill.

At one end of the tapestry rise the dark clouds, like billowing towers of shadow, whence the hosts of the enemy first marched, spreading fear and death across the land. From there the images sweep across the weave like a rushing tide of story, a story of blood and battle, of bravery and death, of hope lost and found again. And at the end of th.
