"Hey, I feel there are people around here," Govind said to Ghosavasu. "There must be those tribal people moving around," Ghosvasu said. "Stay low and silent. Do not reveal your location." The two were heading towards the location they had heard the howling from. However, they knew they could not afford to be seen. "Hey, old man, how would we fight them?" Govind asked as he grabbed the arm of the old man in fear. "Have you thought of a way?" Ghosavasu side-eyed at him. "Why would we fight them? We just have to sneak in, save our companions, and escape." "Ah, right." "Our destination is not this island, but somewhere far beyond it," the old man added. "But how would we do that?" wondered Govind. "About that," Ghosavasu smirked. "I do not know." "What?" Govind raised a brow. "I thought you had already planned a way to get in." "Calm down, young lad. I have never been to their place before. How would I know its layout, the number of people there, and the positioning of guards? I
I had an idea that these savage tribes must drink blood of animals. I had heard some rumors about those tribes existing somewhere on the planet, but I did not know I would encounter them one day. My father used to tell me those stories of savage people who drink animal blood and eat human flesh. And also, they ate male organs as snacks. My father did not say it specifically, I just guessed from their behavior. "Aw, hell no. I am not going to drink this sh*t." "Hulle hula hulle hullu," the tribal man gestured me to drink the thing. I had no choice but to drink it. I wondered if they would give me water if I denied to drink it. "Fine." I took up the horn and gulped it all down in one go. "Wow." To my surprise, it did not turn out to be blood of some animal as I thought it to be. It had a bitter-sweet taste, just like some berries you find in my land. "What is it made of?" I wondered. "It is made of blood berries found on this island only," said the tribal old man, upon entering th
"Ahh, ahh, you are going too deep," She moaned, leaning by her chest on the wall. "I know, no one can resist my thing," Subham said, pushing it into her from behind. Subham, 22-year-old, was the son of a rich merchant. He did nothing but f*ck. A f*ckboy who only thought that women were only meant for sex. He had small black eyes, pale yellow skin, half bald head with short brown hair, thin body and a humongous d*ck. You think that how did I know all this? Well, I watched him doing all those things which I always wanted to do. "Ahh, deeper!" She said with her eyes rolled up, sticking her tongue out. Both reached their climax in a blink. "Ahh, I can't hold it in," She moaned. "Let's release it together," Subham said, and came inside her. He stood there, leaned his upper half body on her back and panted. And here I was, standing beside them while holding their clothes. He made me a hanger for his clothes whenever he made out with someone. I could not count how many girls
I and Subham were childhood friends. When we were young, we used to play together. His father didn't like it and always scolded my father for this. He always believed that the lower class were meant to serve the upper class. So, they could never be equal. My friends arrived at the doctor's place after hearing the news about Subham's condition. They also used to play with us. We lost touch somehow as we all went to our separate ways to fulfill our dreams. I never had one. Watching them together filled my eyes with tears. "Hey, is this true?" Rahul asked in a tensed voice. Rahul was a huge guy with a height over six feet. He was dark-skinned and had big bulky muscles. He worked as a cart puller in the Royal capital of Bambai. His short black hair, triangular face and small black eyes made him look quite dashing. Despite having all the features of a muscleman, he had a kind heart and never hurt a soul in his life. He was wearing a full-sleeved t-shirt like something which was lookin
Subham's condition was getting worse with each passing minute. We could hear his moans coming from the doctor's chamber, which indicated to his suffering. As his moans got louder and frequent, we got more and more worried. His father could not stop himself and tried to get inside. We tried our best to stop him but he still pushed the door and went in. We also ran into the room and were shocked to see that the doctor was shaking Subham's weewee!? Nope, he did nothing like that. At the moment we entered, we found Subham lying on the bed, unconscious, covered in sweat and moaning in pain. The doctor looked at us. His anger was clearly visible on his face. He was sitting beside Subham, placing a wet cloth on his forehead to control his fever. He wanted to vent his anger on us, but he chose not to. The reason was clear, there was a patient in the room. "Doctor, how is he?" Subham's father asked, almost whispering. Doctor looked at him. "Not good. If his condition gets worse, we might
I could not believe my ears. This old man slept with a fairy? Unbelievable. "What is 'Ichha Matsya'?" Surya asked. I too wanted to know what exactly that fairy wanted him to find. "If you translate the words, it will be 'The Wish Fish'. This word came from the foreigners," The doctor replied. I looked into his eyes. "One more thing, what was her name?" "Pallavitra," He said softly. How could mythical creatures be real? I could not believe his words. Everything he said, seemed like a made-up story. But his eyes... his eyes were not lying. "So, did you get your answers?" Ashok asked him. "No, I never set sail in the seas. After her death, I returned to my parents. They forgave me and took me in. I started working as a doctor in the village. And when they passed away, I came back to my sweet home. The bed you are sitting on is the one on which she took her last breath. This small shabby looking house was once a house of my dreams." I noticed he had a lot of wealth. He owned
Next day, we were standing in front of the king in the royal court. Subham's father used his influence and made us enter the court as early as possible. Of course, why wouldn't he? His son was dying. We were standing in a really large hall with huge pillars. Many soldiers were standing here and there guarding the royal court. The King's throne was higher than the ground. Almost ten to twelve feet higher. They studded it with gold and gems. The ministers stood on both the sides in queues. King Rajavarma was sitting on that throne. I was stunned after seeing the shine in his eyes. He was wearing a golden crown with gems studded in it. He had yellow skin, black eyes, dense moustache and beard. He must be in his forties. He was wearing a red surcoat, gold belt and tight stockings. I was sweating from my forehead and my palms. I had never met a king in my life. "Tell me your problem," He said, sitting proudly on his throne. I was looking at Bhaskar, hoping that he would be the one t
Next day, a wooden ship was prepared for us. We were ready to depart. Thousands of people came to see us off. I did not know that the word will be spread like a wildfire. How the hell they all came to know about our departure to the great black sea in just a day? Anyway, I felt overwhelmed. We were at the Bambai sea port. My friends were saying their last goodbyes to their families. I didn't know how they managed to convince them to go on a suicidal journey. Well, I don't care about that. The king was also present there with his minister Induvir and his bodyguards. I went to him, touched his feet, and asked for his blessings. They kept food and resources worth a month in the ship's storage. They gave us weapons like swords, bow and arrows and even spears to counter any kind of danger. They even gave us a sailor who was convicted of a crime few years ago. The king promised to set him free if we all return alive. He was an old man, must be in his sixties. He was wearing a green fur

"Hey, I feel there are people around here," Govind said to Ghosavasu. "There must be those tribal people moving around," Ghosvasu said. "Stay low and silent. Do not reveal your location." The two were heading towards the location they had heard the howling from. However, they knew they could not afford to be seen. "Hey, old man, how would we fight them?"

"Where are you taking me?" I shouted when they carried me somewhere. I looked at the masked old man. "What is going to happen to me?" He remained silent and just stood there with his hands behind his back. "Hey, do not stay shut. At least, tell me my fate so that I can be prepared for it." He still stood there silently and watched the gorilla carry me away on his shoulder. I only hoped for Govind and Ghosavasu to save me somehow. I did not know how they would do that, but I had trust in them. I knew they could find some way. Somewhere back in my mind, I worried about Govind. I wondered if he was alright. Last time I had seen him, he behaved strangely. The gorilla dropped me on an elevated wooden platform. "Owe, that hurts!" This son of a bi*ch. He threw me like a rice bag. I moved my head and saw the masked men had gathered around the platform. They again stomped their feet and howled. "Aauuu! Aaaauuu!" "What the hell is happening?" I said. "What are they trying to do with me?" The
"How do you know about that mythical creature?" Govind asked, walking deep into the woods. Ghosavasu answered, "I had heard it in mythical stories during my early days. I was once in a country of merchants, and this story of a traveller was particularly popular there." His eyes scanned for dangers lurking around. "What story?" wondered Govind. "I can not remember the details, but from what I can gather there was a traveller a long time ago who was robbed by pirates and was thrown off board into the sea. He ended up on an island and was bitten by a snake, unfortunately. He was on the verge of dying, but he ate a golden-striped pig he found there and miraculously recovered. He somehow built a boat and found a way to his home," Ghosavasu told. Govind was astonished by this story. "So, this story might be true." "It might be, but we do not know yet." "I wonder if we could steal one or two of them and sell them for fortunes," Govind muttered. "We should find your friends first," Ghos
Ghosavasu was in a dilemma whether he should take the boys with him and escape, but he was not in the condition to carry anyone. The masked tribal people were climbing the ship, so he had no choice but to flee. "I will come back for you, young men. Just hang in there, and do not give in," he said and jumped into the sea. "Hullu hulle hulle hulloo..." one of the tribal heard something drop into the sea when they climbed the deck. They checked and found no one. Just some minute disturbance in the water. "Hullee hullu hullee," one of them ordered the other to carry the tied sleeping men with them they found on the deck. They checked their breath and pulse to confirm if they were alive and then carried them with themselves. Ghosavasu swam to the other side of the island to not get spotted by those weird masked men. He panted while lying down on the sand. "What the hell just happened? How am I supposed to explain this to Arsh and Govind?" Something bolted his mind. "Wait, are they even
"Huh? Where am I?" It was an unusual place I found myself in. Not that the place I was earlier was my daily walk, but I found myself laying on top of an endless water surface. I observed the water was as clear as a crystal as I could see strange fishes underneath me. "What is this place?" I wondered. "You must think what this place is," I heard a voice behind his back. It was the same old man's voice I had heard multiple times earlier inside his head. I turned and discovered a silhouette at a distance. "This place is the mental realm. A different dimension," said the old man. "A different dimension? What am I doing here?" I could not understand how I reached this weird place. What more I could not understand was why this old dude was not showing me his face. "You are not physically present here. I just brought your consciousness in this realm," the old man paused as he realized he made a mistake. "Ah, no. I moved this realm into your head, basically." It was hard for me to unders
We walked around for a while and I began to notice something off about Govind. He seemed to be lost somewhere and stayed mute. "Hey." I touched his shoulder to wake him up from his reverie. "What happened? Is something bothering you?" I noticed his feet halted when I did that, but he still did not respond to me. He kept staring ahead in the jungle. "Govind? Stop scaring me." To be honest, I had felt something off about him on the ship only. Now that I think about it, he was always weird as a person, but not this weird. "Hey, bro... What are you staring at?" I followed his eyes and looked into the darkness. A sudden chill ran down my spine. I could not understand the reason for it, but it felt creepy as hell. "I think we should go back from here. We have explored enough," I suggested. "Govind?" I was now sure that something had happened to him. The baby piglet in my arms was snoozing while my heartbeat went faster. "This is bad." Suddenly, I heard a noise. It was similar to the
I and Govind landed on the island and straightened our backs before exploring the area. I looked forward to entering the deep woods which looked scary as well as amusing to me. I loved these kinds of places. They were away from the population and problems. I always to wanted to live in a place like this, so that I would be away from people. Now that I think about it, it was because I was so done with the exploits of Subham's father. "Would you come into the forest with me?" I asked Govind who seemed to stare into the woods with a frown. I noticed it and further asked, "What happened?" Without changing his expression, he just replied, "I do not know. I sense something strange from the woods. I do not think it is a great idea to enter just like that." He was right. I sensed it too. Something was off. I followed his eyes and looked into the woods among the dense trees. He continued, "Besides, we are in The Great Blac
About what Ghosavasu said, he saw something strange in his dream. Did he see the same stuff I did? Or was it something else? I had to know."What did you see?" The old man looked confused. He stayed silent for some time with a quizzical expression. Maybe he remembered his days when he was young. I wondered how he saved himself from that dangerous hot babe. Maybe he did not have sexual urges anymore, because of his age, of course. Cobras die after a certain age... "I saw my wife," Ghosavasu answered after thinking for a few seconds. Oh, so the dreams were not the same for everyone. It seems whatever it was; it attacked the weakest points of a person. "What did you actually see? Can you tell me?" I asked as I thought it might help me know more about these dreams... And of course, about this old man. He was still a mysterious figure among us. A convicted criminal who somehow ended up on o
