Little Tim Adventures-XXV
Tim said ‘What did he say? Tell me!’’ Lucas said ‘‘Will you be frightened?’’ Tim said ‘‘No I won’t! Now tell me!’’Lucas said ‘‘Okay then, if you agree. Here’s the story, he told ‘‘ I am an adult though I be careful whether the doors and windows are shut tightly. I lock em and put em in my pocket. As he continued, he asked me ‘‘Can you see those misty woods over there?’’ I shook my head, he continued
‘‘It's called the Woods Of Atlantes’’
then Tim interrupted ‘‘ WHAT THE BLOODY HELL? THE WOODS OF WHAT!!’’ Lucas said’’ Let me tell you, I too asked Who is Atlantes? And why it is called in such a peculiar name.’’ He said
‘‘ Dear, he is a powerful wizard. He is the one who owns those woods after he defeated the witch Midrel but unfortunately he lost his power halfway in the fierce battle. To rule once again he needs back his power. Anyone goes over there, never returns back. It is an ancient belief that he grabs all the people and mix them in his portion which will once make him powerful enough for his sovereignty." I said ‘‘Uncle David, how do you know? They can be false news or rumors. I don’t believe it.’’ Uncle David said ‘‘These stories were told by my grandma. I too was a young boy like you and I didn’t believe them until..’’ I asked ‘‘Until what?’’ Uncle David said ‘‘Until she told me a story of a ten year old girl called Luna Grace.’’ I once again asked him ‘‘What happened to her? What did your grandma tell?’’ Uncle David continued ‘‘Luna Grace has gone with her family to the woods but after several days, they did not return back.’ That’s all he told me’’ said Lucas. Tim said
‘‘Interesting tales.’’ Lucas said ‘‘What do you mean interesting? Aren’t you scared?’’ Tim smiled and said ‘‘Ah please!Old people are such blabber mouths. You know something,my grandma,she used to tell me nerve racking stories. Honestly I was like you, I believed them at first but later on when I was about 7 years old I understood that she was lying and was trying to mess up with me. You don’t believe them,do you?’’ Lucas said ‘‘Well I am not quite sure. What about the story of that ten year old girl? You can believe that and he also said before he moved, his grandma was the one who lived here and at that time there were few people living around.’ Tim grinned and said ‘‘Please I have heard everything, I am too excited to hold on. Ring the bell’’

What lucas uncle said is true or is it all a hoax?
