colmbus in the search of Atlantis...

                                                    

                                                                       The preparations  

Everyone was preparing for the new journey.  Some of the Europeans didn’t want to leave the village. But the captain’s word was always respected. So they gathered their weapons  and their supplies.  The “White Wolf” was going to lead the Indians. His father wanted to stay back in the village. He needed to rest.  He didn’t want to send his son, to a land that he had never heard before. The “White Wolf” had made his decision. He and his companions were going to live their own legend.  Every great Indian had a legend. The Village had a magician. He would go with them and help them, in case they came across strange creatures.  

The Captain, the “White Wolf” and the magician would lead this campaign. So they sat together and tried to find the way to get to that mysterious place cold Atlantis.. The map showed that they had to travel by ship towards the southern part of the great sea. The Indians weren’t fond of the sea but if they wanted to have their legend they had to go..

The ship that they were going to sail with was ready. It was built from the best craftsmen. It was a great ship..  It’s name was Argo.  Again the captain was at the place where he felt home.  The sea was his land. His family. The place where all of his dreams were dreamt.  

They were sailing for a few days.   The compass that the captain had was working fine. But they couldn’t find the place or the land that the map showed that was the way to get to Atlantis. It’s like they were going round in circles. The crew of the ship was getting tired . Maybe the map was wrong.  Maybe Atlantis didn’t exist.  So Columbus spoke with the “White Wolf” and the Magician. What to do. The Magician went out on the deck of the ship and started to say a spell in his Indian language.  Abra  katampra …Abra katampra… And suddenly great winds started to blow.  Rain.. Thunder!!!!!!! What was happening.. The weather couldn’t  change like that… water was going on the ship.. everyone was afraid that the ship would sink…..but……………
