“Yes I am, and I suppose you are here to free me?” “To do that you must find my tomb without
any help to get my approval.” said the East.
Tar-uka got a stick out and started taping the floor. It seems ridiculous because he is poking
the ground which is full of sand. Buy suddenly he stuck wood, and he started digging the sand,
he found a wood cover, it wouldn’t budge so he had to break it so he can proceed under it to the
East’s tomb.
Tar-uka created a sledge with a smooth oval rock and some planks stuck on the sand. He
banged the cover 3 times, and it popped open. In the hole there was a big smell of fresh wood and
wind blew hard. So hard you can float on top of the hole. So Tar-uka dived down, it took a while.
But he had a safe fall because there were winds to break his fall.
In the tomb he found many leaf and wood in the center there was a rove, a dragon themed
robe with scales of some beast which makes a sparkling effect. He wore the robe and suddenly the
white tigers coat forged with the rove. The green aura ball came in front of him and said
“The exit out of my prison can be found in nothing. You can get in but can’t get out in
another way.”
Then the aura disappeared. But Tar-uka knew exactly what he meant and took the dragon
amulet with him before looking a way to float back up.
Tar-uka used his robe to make himself get a pushed back up the hole.
Back up Tar-uka was gifted a wind ride back to the village from the east.
On the way during the wind ride, Tar-uka looked down. It’s like he was riding on an invisible
dragon of wind. Under him he was looking at a large scale of the Gobi dessert. He saw the ground
full of camels walking in a line there were also cactus in all shapes.
When Tar-uka arrived back to the village, he was worried how he can get off the wind dragon.
That’s when the invisible creature threw him up and ate him then crashed in the middle of the
village. A explosion of wind and then the sonic wave that went everywhere. The aftermath went
away quickly since it was all sand and gust of wind.
Tar-uka went in the hut to visit Otto-man to tell him that the east has been free. Tar-uka
showed him his fusion of west and east’s robe and the amulet, and then he told him that inside
the chamber of the east there was a lot of wood and some magical pots that have been sealed with
powerful explosions of winds.
“So when will you visit south?” said Otto-man, “You’ve been quite the treasure hero recently.”
“I will take a rest for now, the wind pipe in the east has pretty much shocked Me.” said Tar-uka.
Later the next day Tar-uka got ready to leave for the south on the way he noticed that the sun
was getting brighter. He ignored it and stopped for lunch. Just then he noticed the cactus around
him was burning because of the heat wave of the sun half of his lunch got ignited in flames once
he took it out. He was wondering why he wasn’t burning. Just then he saw a fire shaped as a bird
and it was spinning around him.
“So you’re the boy my siblings told me?” said the south.
“Yes, any hint on how to get in your tomb?” ask Tar-uka, “I see everything here is on fire.”
“Not quite, it’s just an illusion so as my resting place.” Then the fire disappeared. Tar-uka
was thinking and he noticed the cactus which was on fire. It wasn’t hot, but the flames were very
realistic. It was then he noticed the riddle, and he gathered a few and threw them at the rock
wall. The flames burned and a hole appeared but he couldn’t see anything in the hole. Tar-uka
jumped into the raging flames, in there it was filled with gasoline and in the middle was an upper
