Creative Contest of the Week: Two Words, One Story: Tortoise and Power by @vanessageorge

In an ordinary land, there’s an ordinary place, with an ordinary house, and an ordinary gate. If you dare to cross the gate, no that’s there something to worry, you will find a rocky path that you should walk in a hurry.

At the end of the named path, is a porter at the door, with a silly big smile, and a large coyote fur. He is trying to disguise, as he’s only a little fox, that was left alone to guard what is right behind the door.

He will ask you for the reason, why you want to cross the door, and you better have a good one, if you want to go and explore. I once had the opportunity to come across the same porter, and my travel was in vain, my reasons had little order.

I was told by a dear friend that if I could go inside, I will find a simple place with an orchard very wide. In the middle of the orchard, on the left side of the willow, there's an Elongated Tortoise, sitting down on a red pillow.

Don’t be fooled by his long neck, or his feet that are enormous, that one sitting down in peace is no ordinary tortoise. This tortoise has a big power, that is hidden in his shell, if you give him a pink carrot he will conjure any spell.

The spell will be your desire, for example, to be famous, or be rich, or to be loved by someone of a higher status. You can even ask the tortoise to grant you eternal life, or to live for a short period but with the most beautiful wife.

If you ever find this place in the ordinary land, have in mind a precise reason and a pink carrot in hand.
