Chapter IV - Novel at the hanging chair

 

Jay sat in the hanging chair next to the sea. His mind drifting off as he grabbed his pen and paper, starting to draw and the Book of Mandala came to life....

 

(click through the floating papers, start with paper 1....)

Paper 1:

The little boys name was Ping Pong. He already had four teeth, could walk, and knew how to express himself correctly and selectively. The little boy was only 368 days old! Jay was incredibly surprised about that little boy. ´How can you speak already? ´, he asked. Ping pong posed: ´Even the tiniest children in Mandala can do that. They can read and write by the age of two at the latest and math by three. ´ Jay blinked, nodded, and wanted to know more about the people in Mandala, who suddenly disappeared and what happened to them.

Paper 2:

This island was once filled with laugher and voices by the Mandalans, who were peaceful people, living their life until....

The boy sniffed again, swallowed, and continued. Ping Pong was the 32nd child of Mr. Schu Fu Lu Pi Plu, chief cook of the Emperor of Mandala. A lot has changed in the realm of the centre since the days of the precocious guy. The emperor had not existed since .... The temple tower was locked and empty. Ivy and grass heaved up the tower. The happy sounds from the temple have disappeared. There were only disturbing looking dolls to be found there. Ping Pong stuttered and then softly whispered: ´Some Mandalans became small, scary dolls. ´ ´But what happened? ´, Jay asked little Ping Pong. ´You must go to the temple and see it for yourself, ´ says the little guy. 'Will you help us? Will you save the Empress so that everything will be the way it was? ´, the little boy asked Jay with begging eyes.

Paper 3:

The artist was very taken with the history of the Mandalans and secretly he was also curious who the Empress of Mandala was and whether she could tell him more about Sakura Tales. So, he agreeed to help Ping Pong and his own. Ping Pong jumped up and cheered. Then suddenly he stopped dead in place. 'Oh, what a bad Mandalan I am. I have completely forgotten how hospitable we are. Let me take you out to dinner. I learned from my father and will serve you the most culinary dishes of Mandala. And so, he inviteed Jay to have dinner with him in the celestial cafe.
