STACH Short Story Contest #18: 199 words, 5 winners, 15SBD prize pool!

No one had ever seen the great King so worried until now, his only daughter, the beautiful princess of ‘’TALAMA’’ kingdom had been struck by a deadly illness for days now, and no one, not even the great wizard ’’KIZOMA’’ of “TALAMA’’ could find a cure. As the days passed, the sick princess looked more fragile and helpless. Rumors have it that she was cursed by an evil witched who envied her special powers.
Sophia had a special gift, such that had not been seen in the whole of history. Sophia was born with a flute in her hands and whenever she played this flute, it had the powers to heal all manner of illness known to man. But, there she was, lying ill, unable to heal herself. For the one possessing the flute, another must play it, for the illness to be gone.
Words were sent out and a heavy bounty was placed on anyone who could unravel the mystery of the flute. Several people, men, women and even their children alike, from different cultures, tribes, races, trooped into the King’s palace, but all to no avail.
Now the big question wavering is; who can play SOPHIA'S FLUTE?flute.jpg
