The Tale of The Three Prisms🔊

Once upon a time, in a realm where magic thrived, nestled among the verdant valleys and towering mountains, the mystical Kingdom of Lyrrintus existed. Lyrrintus was a land known for its magical treasures, and its most esteemed was the triumvirate of prisms called the Tri-Prisma. Each prism had unique powers: one could manipulate time, the other space, and the third held sway over nature.

Lithian, the benevolent king of Lyrrintus, was the guardian of these precious gems. He was laden with wisdom, for he bore the distinction of being the oldest living soul. With the power over space, he could connect to far off realms. The prism controlling time allowed him to witness vital historical events and prevent impending calamities. With the prism over nature, he kept the balance of the ecosystem in check. The prosperity and peace of Lyrrintus relied much on the balanced use of these prisms.

Yet, as the decades rolled by, Lithian grew weary of his reign and his burden. 'Who will protect the Tri-Prisma after me?' he often pondered. The king had three daughters- Aria, Bella, and Callia. Aria, the eldest, was compassionate, Bella, the middle child, had an intellect which surpassed all, and Callia, the youngest, was brave and passionate about nature. Lithian pondered over each of their qualities and thought that each daughter perfectly embodied the spirit of each prism. So, he decided to entrust each daughter with one of the prisms.

However, he didn't want to sow the seeds of unrest among his daughters, so he conceived a challenge. He called forth his daughters, presenting them with a quest: 'Preserve a living rose in a glass case until the next full moon night. The rose that remains vibrant till the end will have proven your ability to take care of delicate yet powerful forces. Each of you will then be the caretaker of a prism.'

Aria, Bella, and Callia accepted the challenge, each taking care of the rose in their way. Aria tended to the rose with loving care, watering it every day and singing to it every night. Bella, with her sharp mind, created an automated system for the rose's hydration and sunlight needs. Callia built a miniature greenhouse around her glass case, believing nature itself will do the best job.

Weeks passed, and the full moon dawned. The king went to inspect the roses. Aria's rose was wilting. Bella's rose was also fading, while Callia's rose was vibrant and full of life.

'Why has this happened?' Lithian questioned his daughters. Aria, with sadness in her eyes, replied, 'I did everything in my capability to take care of the rose, but I fell ill for three days and couldn't attend to it.' Bella chimed in, 'My automated system took care of all the rose's needs but nature is unpredictable, a pest infestation occurred, and I couldn't prevent it.' Callia, holding her thriving rose, said, 'My rose was taken care of by nature itself.'

Listening to his daughters, King Lithian smiled. He had found the perfect guardians for the prisms. Aria's compassion equated to the prism of space, connecting with others, helping and caring; Bella's intellect suited the prism of time, understanding historical patterns and utilizing it for the future; and Callia's boldness and love for nature were ideal for the prism of nature.

Lithian entrusted the prisms to his daughters who, in later years, used the powers for the prosperity of Lyrrintus. Through decisive yet compassionate rule, they evenly divided their responsibilities and worked together, further strengthening the unity and prosperity of the kingdom.

And so, the tale of the prisms continues as their caretakers change and the wonderous kingdom of Lyrrintus flourishes under the protection of the magical Tri-Prisma.
