It so happened that a poor penniless shepherd wandered the desert, and he came across the now beautiful clearing.

Gasping with wonder at such a wonderous site, he also stared at the beautiful blind girl, who was pitifully crying.
'What are you? and how did you come here?'

'I am an unhappy deserted maiden, left to die by those I should have been able to trust.'

Moved by her, the shepherd got her to sit amongst the flowers and gave her some of the food he carried. He then put up his tent and stood guard while she slept.

The next morning, the Princess said' I wish to thank you, Sir.
Take a sack and gather up all the pearls you want, then bring me a bucket of water. From this day forward you shall no longer be poor.'

When he returned, dipped her head in the bucket of water, turning the liquid into gold. Smiling, she gave the man the roses that appeared, saying:

'Please take these to the city ahead, and seek outthe palace. Offer them to the guard on the gate, instructing him to show them to my aunt. Accept no money for them, only the snuff box containing the two eyes which she keeps.'

The man did as she bade him.

When she saw the amazing red roses, the deceptive aunt immediately gave in to the shepherd's request, for she was anxious to have the blooms to show to her daughter's husband.

On his return to his tent, the shepherd gave the eyes to the Princess, one at a time, who placed them back into their sockets. Her sight restored, she asked her young friend to lead her to the city and leave her outside the palace.

Nirvana: And so the shepherd and the princess began their journey to the royal palace.

After walking for 3 miles, they arrived in the city. They visited the market, and bought food for dinner. Then, as they were both tired of walking, they hired a chariot, in order to get to the palace. They paid for both the dinner and the chariot ride with pearls.

When they were at the palace, the princess got out of the chariot, and the shepherd returned to his flock of sheep.

Once outside the Palace, the young Princess smiled at the guards, who, on seeing such a beautiful girl immediately opened the huge gates so that they might talk with her.

Each one asked to be given one of the lovely unfading roses and when they went back to the Palace showed off their prized gifts. The Princess found lodgings nearby and waited.

Upon hearing of the wonderful roses, the plain Princess's mother immediately insisted that they all be given to her, and gave two to her daughter, telling her to offer them to her husband. He took them but refused to believe they came from such swarthy cheeks.

The King, his father, was mortally wounded in a battle, and so the Prince took his place as the rightful heir.


Meanwhile, the beautiful Princess became friendly with the woman who ran the rooms where she lodged, and who also happened to be married to one of the palace guards. The couple's children were saddened because their much-loved pet mule was sick and looked likely to die.

Taking pity on the poor children, the Princess lead the mule around the lodgings grounds and let him feed on the healthy plants and flowers that grew whereever she trod. Soon the mule grew sleek and strong, and was once again the healthy animal the children adored.

The guard (her husband) boasted cheerfully about the maginficent creature his family now owned and soon his bragging reached the ears of the newly crowned King, who demanded to be taken to the place where such a miracle had happened.

'My Lady,' he said to the guard's wife, 'how did you manage to restore this lame beast to such good health?'
The woman told him about the beautiful girl lodging with her family.
'It is my intended and no other!' cried the King.
'lead me to her'

On seeing his lost love walking in the grounds, he hastened to her and took her hand. 'My Princess ~ I had given up all hope of ever seeing you again.' His heart bursting with happiness, he lead the girl away to his Palace, where he gave her the talisman that he had confiscated from his imposter wife.

With the guards standing watch, he sent for the two evil women.

'Let it be known throughout every land that these women are banished from here forever and that should either attempt to return, will incur the death penalty' he proclaimed. ' Let is also be known that this lovely lady is to be my lawful wife and so my Queen.'

Celebrations were hastily arranged, and for forty days and forty nights, the wedding parties were enjoyed by all the people and the King and his Queen lived happily ever after.

The End.

A flash in the midnight sky was all that was seen on earth as the spaceship hurtled towards a field of haricot beans growing in peacefullly and crashed into the middle of them. Smoke poured from the shattered vessel as one hundred tiny creatures climbed out and ran away from it as fast as their legs could carry them. With one mighty explosion, followed by several smaller ones, the spacecraft blew into a million pieces, the force of the blast scattering white hot pieces in various directions.

The tiny creatures cowered between the to them huge plants. Smoke and flames were all around them for some distance as their spaceship burned. What were they to do now?

'Quickly men, 'said one. 'pass this along to the others. Each of you climb up a stem and hang on.'
As the order was passed along, each creature did as he or she was told. Struggling to just below the beans, they each managed to settle amongst the leaves and waited. It was dark apart from the light from the flames and the moon and stars in the night sky.

Gradually the flames subsided and the exhausted creatures settled in amongts the walls of beans for the remainder of the night. Only the insects and a few animals knew they were there as they drifted off into a nervous sleep.

Came the dawn, and with it warm sunshine. A helicopter hovered overhead, it's pilot appearing to be searching for something. The aliens hiding amongst the beans kept absolutely still, not wanting to give themselves away. As the helicopter circled the area, two army trucks and a range rover car drove up the wide path way that divided the beans. They stopped and men got out and wandered amongst the beans. As they did so, they picked up little bits of debris from the spaceship, numbering each one as they went along. After an hour or two, they had collected up all the pieces and gathered by the vehicles to discuss what the had so far.

A week later, the harvesters began their task of picking all the bean. Thousands upon thousands of haricot beens. All were picked and the farmer began selling them in his farm shop as well as distributing them to other outlets.

A few days later, a pile of beens stored in a vegetable rack began to move a little. Cautiously one hndred tiny antlike creatures emerged from their hiding places and climbed down onto the kitchen floor. Stretching their legs and arms after being still for so long, the assembled in a line by a door way.

'OK Men,' said one ' listen up. Surround any life forms and attack.'

Walking down the hall towards a large lounge, they could hear voices and music coming from it. Unnoticed, they entered the room and climbed up the backs of the comfortable chairs. Jumping on the necks of the humans sitting on the chairs, they injected each victim with the poisonous venom as they bit into flesh. Then they sat stared in wonder at the noisy box in the corner of the room. Newver having seen TV before, they were baffled by it. Unsure whether or not to attack the humans they saw inside it, the aliens looked at their leader for instructions.

'Good job, Men' he said.

Just then, the humans in the box were replaced by lines of letters and music.

'These humans do not appear to be a threat to us,'he said. 'Rest now'

Assisted by his two most trusted men, the Commander climbed out of the window and up the wall towards a conveniently plced TV ariel. Reaching in his pocket, he pulled out a small device which he fixed to the ariel. 'To guide our commrades,' he said to the others, before returning to the lounge once more.

Attracted by the homing device, two nights later, several small shapes hovered in the sky above the farmhouse.

As each came into land in the surrounding gronds, groups of the ant-like aliens began to emerge and they all assembled in the yard outside the backdoor.

Blinking a bit at the brightness of the security light that shone upon them, they listened as the Commander began to talk.

'So far so good, Men,' he said. 'Now we must go forth and begin to take control of the entire area. Let us be on our way.' with that, he lead the way down the main pathway and out of the farm.

Nirvana:The scouts of the ant-like aliens soon after leaving the farm yard started to detect messages by their antenae.
This in turn was reported to the commander who was unsure as to how to proceed.

This came about because the messages received were both distress and victory messages.

Unbeknown to the Ant-like aliens they were receiving messages from a war between brown and black ants at the bottom of the garden.

Whislt considering what to do next, the comander is informed by one of his aides the possibility that the instigator of the messages could be the higher life form on the planet and they could be the reason the party hasn't returned.

The situation of the messages just ceasing when they did, has created a lot of discussion amongst the commanders group.
The major theory is that one group has finally overthrown the other. Therefore the messages stopped as the victorious group has moved away, out of range or theis receivers.

This is all causing a lot of concern for the commander as he isn't normally in a situation where he doesn't know all the facts.

There is a lot of commotion on the fringes of the group the second recon party is returning.......
