Lydia and the breathtaking quest
In Roman times when gods ruled Rome, this is a tale about a sweet, young girl called Lydia who was as beautiful as princess .You are about to go on a breath taking quest with her.
Lydia was working in the orchard picking apples from the apple trees happily. Then a man was peeking behind a tree looking at Lydia who was singing .He was thinking it was coming from a goddess but it was coming from Lydia. And then she skipped, away to her parents house very happily. Then, Remus, the man who was following her, followed her home.
When Remus was following her she asked him what he was doing and Remus said “I am going to ask you if you want to ask if you want to go on a quest to the under world? “ She said she would do it tomorrow.
So the next day she set of on the quest.
The next day was very cold and bitter; Lydia was at the nasty, old bridge and she was just about to go on it. But the goddess of Orchards stopped her. (Diana) the goddess of Orchards, took her to the under world.
When Lydia was at the under world she was shocked because when she arrived at the house there was a three headed monster at the door. The monster looked very blood thirsty and terrifying ,so she put the package down and ran away then the monster chased her all around. It bit her.
When Lydia got bit, she had her hair around her so she was fine. After that, Lydia got to the house in the under world and then the monster wasn’t there. So she left the package, at the door and ran away to get the coins.
After that ,Remus was waiting for her at her house. When she got home she saw Remus there and he gave Lydia the Gold coins. They got married and got an animal that was as big as a house.
