THE POTION of TRANSFORMATION

Once upon a time, there was a young man, called Arthur.

Arthur was a villain.

He travelled far and wide, robbing the poor and stealing treasures to make money. Succeeded he did too.

To add to it, he craved eternal life. Eternal life to continue his villainous ways.

One day, Arthur came upon a cave opening in a forest. He went through the opening, to see if there was any treasure stashed inside the cave.

There was no treasure.

Instead, there was a thousand-year-old wizard, stirring a purple potion in a large, golden cauldron.

Arthur introduced himself to the wizard. He then said that he was travelling far and wide, seeking riches to give to the poor.

The wizard saw right through Arthur’s lies.

He scooped out a goblet full of potion and handed it to him.

Arthur eyed the liquid suspiciously before drinking it.

Then something happened.

He transformed into an aged man with wrinkled skin, a hunched back, frail limbs and poor eye sight.

Arthur was furious.

He demanded to be turned back into his normal self, but the wizard said that the potion could not be used to retransform.

The wizard then told Arthur, that he was going to pay the price for his treacherous ways. That he was going to travel far and wide as an aged man forever. That he was going to suffer the same way his victims had suffered.

So it was to be.

Eternal life, as a poorly-treated aged man with wrinkled skin, a hunched back, frail limbs and poor eye sight.

Unhappily ever after.
