It was a pleasant evening, with the bright red sun shining over the Riz river. One could easily say that it was spring , by looking at the beautiful flowers blooming. Zennian (people of Zennia) have strong French accent.
"Bonjour monsieur "
"Bonjour mademoiselle "
"Au revoir madame "
It was a busy market Street, people greeting each other, the vendors selling their products and many buyers purchasing them.
"Hey , Stella! What a lovely day" said a voice with great excitement. It was Ria, her friend , who was dressed in a beautiful floor length pink gown.
Stella, was a simple , yet attractive girl , who was dressed in blue netted gown, her hair tied up in a high bun.
"Salute Ria " she said in a strong French accent. "Yes, the day is wonderful".
Ria, Stella and James were friends and also neighbours. The story of their friendship was very popular.
Once, it was a pleasant evening and Ria and Stella were playing in their garden. It was a time when they were kids , about the age of six years. Suddenly, there was a disaster, the devil of Zennia, Wermin's guards had arrived in the town. Everyone sprinted towards their houses and slammed the doors. Even Ria and Stella ran towards their own homes, but Ria triped over and couldn't reach her house. At that time, James helped her to get to her house safely. From that time they're friends. They are kind and helpful, but at the same time, they are also very naughty. Plucking fruits from others gardens and many more such things make them the most popular trio of their town.
"Stella, where is James? "asked Ria. "Well, he was saying that he would be going to go to the next town for finding a job. May be he left " she replied.
Afternoon, around two past quater, James returned back. Stella and Ria were surprised to find that James did not find any job. James was an intelligent and a capable person. He was responsible and honest.
When asked what had happened he replied sadly "they don't want any persons from our town because they are afraid of Wermin. They think that I am a spy and would help Wermin to take over their town."
They were shocked to hear the news. "If that is the case, Zennia would not develop. No one will trust us."said Stella.
"We must do something. We should explain them that we are not spy, even we are not happy to be ruled by him" Ria said.
"Its not about developing trust amoung others, its about fighting against Wermin " said a voice."Sorry I overheard your conversation mademoiselle, but how long we will be under Wermin. We should not only be proud of THE GUARDIANS OF ZENNIA, but help them fight against Wermin".
They saw a man, in his early 40s, sitting next to them on a bench. He was wearing a brown coloured, traditional suit with a hat on his head and was holding a dark brown wooden stick.
"Don't take his name, sir. You are not afraid of him?asked Ria in great astonishment.
"Yes monsieur, you know that 'where there is the name of the devil, there is his presence' so please do not take his name" Stella said.
"I am not afraid of his name. Being afraid of name, makes him more dreadful" said the man with confidence.
"You are right sir, but how can we fight against HIIIII Wermin?asked James.
"Well, first let me introduce myself. I am Steve Sebastian and I was a musketeer in the castle of Arthur Augustus the IV, the king of Dinzzar" introduced the man.
He was interrupted by Ria, when she asked "you was a musketeer? What does that mean? "
