They used the other two coins for purchasing some raisin hot buns and two waterskins filled with refreshing brew (beverage, orange juice) from one of the food stalls, as breakfast to be consumed while on board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequently, as the boat negotiated the choppy waters, for it was rather overcast and windy that day, to lessen the impact, Brenda after momentary hesitation, choosing her words carefully, with apt sensitivity told Berdis (Longze) the regrettable, far graver consequence of her irresponsible act, that had unfortunately begotten (caused) the death of her husband Jedrik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mercifully, Brenda had forgotten her money purse and having returned abruptly, made that grim discovery. She (the fairy) had not disturbed anything, simply locked up the house, deposited few essential pieces of clothing just in case in a bundle (residence, abode) and before the residue trace went cold, had hastened out, eventually discovering Berdis in the depths of the huge cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though Brenda had done her best to console her elder sister, to her consternation Berdis had remained irresponsive and frozen; simply beyond reach, she\u2019d with a blank expression stared into the void from then on. Alarmingly, she had stayed that way, eerily silent, till she had reached home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grief-stricken and heart palpitating wildly, Berdis had then rushed back to her bedroom at once, and finding her husband\u2019s lifeless body covered by a cloth, slowly pealed the cover to kneel by his body, and cupping her face, only then, came the flood of tears. She\u2019d tragically wept and wept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"885\" height=\"679\" data-attachment-id=\"6098\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/02-jedrik-nenzo-93jp\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/02-jedrik-nenzo-93jp.jpg?fit=885%2C679&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"885,679\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"02-JEDRIK NENZO (93)JP\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/02-jedrik-nenzo-93jp.jpg?fit=885%2C679&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/02-jedrik-nenzo-93jp.jpg?resize=885%2C679&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6098\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">02-JEDRIK NENZO (93)JP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eventually setting aside her grief, Berdis (dragon Longze) and Brenda (Green Snake, the fairy), moved Jedrik\u2019s lifeless body onto the bed and set him up as though he was simply asleep; then seated by the hearth (fireplace), they wrecked their brains to find the means to reverse this tragedy. Berdis (Longze) you see, would not surrender to loss that easily. Berdis deciding on what course to take (process to utilize), she then locked herself into her bedroom leaving Brenda to stand guard at hallway, as it was essential, all during her trance state (meditation, s\u00e9ance) she was not disturbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Longze sat cross-legged on the floor; her eyes focused on the flickering flame of the tall candle before her, her breathing regulated, she then willed herself to enter a deeper meditative state. Her mind penetrating the deeper subconscious (subliminal, near unconscious) state next, the manifest vision showed her the interior of the, now all locked up and abandoned wooden cabin in the dense forest, where once Longze had happily dwelled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequently, Longze\u2019s ethereal (otherworldly, ghostly) form with her intact retentive memory, telepathically (clairvoyantly) transported to the very cabin, she figuratively speaking, began rampaging through the dust ridden, shelved books. Finding nothing useful there, she next sought to retrieve the more pertinent (relevant, apposite) ones stored in the cavity behind a false wall. Even Haskell did not know of this hiding place. The secret wall panel now pushed aside, Longze, reached in and withdrew (fetched) her old, personal diary carefully concealed at the very bottom of the stacked pile, untouched for many years. The lock now with a click opened, inside pages flipped by as she quickly perused the documented entries one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"688\" height=\"492\" data-attachment-id=\"6100\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/03-perusing-through-diary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/03-perusing-through-diary.jpg?fit=688%2C492&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"688,492\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"03- PERUSING THROUGH DIARY\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/03-perusing-through-diary.jpg?fit=688%2C492&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/03-perusing-through-diary.jpg?resize=688%2C492&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6100\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">03- PERUSING THROUGH DIARY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In those days, when the Immortal Haskell was often gone absent from the cabin, she had braved many a time and sneak peaked (sneakily gleaned) at the information from the pages of Immortal Haskell\u2019s closely guarded ancient book which he had hidden in his luggage. Longze\u2019s photographic, acute memory had permanently stored it all where it lay at the back of her mind; however, some of it had been carefully recorded (documented, registered) in her diary. She needed to ascertain (discover) that pertinent, forbidden knowledge, akin to one she now desperately sought, to reverse this tragedy.&nbsp; And then\u2026 there it was\u2026Lo and behold, she finally came across it, exactly the information she sought!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ~<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her first (previous night\u2019s) transformation into a dragon, after her drinking the realgar wine, had been a flux; however, she\u2019d also obtained the precise knowledge now from her entries in the journal; more importantly, that there was a sure reliable way to achieve this aim. Long forgotten memories rushed back to make her smile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her ability to transform into a dragon, had been, long ago gleaned (picked up, espied, learned) when once in her playful mood, she\u2019d quietly snuck close behind, and peered into the ancient book Immortal Haskell had intently been reading. Though, when questioned, fearing master Haskell\u2019s ire, she\u2019d vehemently denied seeing anything at all; nevertheless, she had a keen, retentive memory, which at present came very useful. An impish (naughty) smile for a fleeting moment lifted the corners of Longze\u2019s lips, as she, furthermore, recollected all her other mischievous ways in those days spent with Immortal Haskell; so much had changed since then\u2026 Berdis (Longze), abruptly dismayed, could not help but heave a deep sigh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ~<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"6101\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/04-immortal-haskell-34\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/04-immortal-haskell-34.png?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"04- IMMORTAL HASKELL (34)\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/04-immortal-haskell-34.png?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/04-immortal-haskell-34.png?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6101\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">04- IMMORTAL HASKELL (34)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the certain fact should be revealed at this point, that Immortal Haskell was far more than what he\u2019d led on. He was in fact, the fifth appointed secret ornery (willful, crabby) custodian (guardian) of Longze. His meeting, and thence subtle interference with Longze, was by no means coincidental; nor was his supposed careless conveying of immortal pills; or the accidental transmission of key (strategic) knowledge from that forbidden book, that proved invaluable to Longze- so that he could endure and eventually succeed his subsequent, various dire ordeals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ~<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the successful conclusion of her meditation, Berdis had succinctly appraised Brenda of her intent. Once more Brenda was left behind to care for her husband Jedrick\u2019s corpse and to keep him secure; Berdis (Longze), armed with the vital knowledge, in her dragon form thence, before she reached her full size flew (lunged, escaped) from the open window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"6103\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/05-berdis-longze-flies-out-the-window-at-night-7jp\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/05-berdis-longze-flies-out-the-window-at-night-7jp.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"05- BERDIS (lONGZE )FLIES OUT THE WINDOW  AT NIGHT (7)JP\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/05-berdis-longze-flies-out-the-window-at-night-7jp.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/05-berdis-longze-flies-out-the-window-at-night-7jp.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6103\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">05- BERDIS (lONGZE )FLIES OUT THE WINDOW AT NIGHT (7)JP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Berdis (Longze)speared through the clouds, and then in lightening speed sliced through the upper atmosphere; she arrived at the Islet magic mountain Mount Hellmar, permanently hidden (from all mortal eyes) by the miasmic (mephitic, vaporous) clouds, in midst of a vast ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"6160\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/06-the-magic-island-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/06-the-magic-island-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"06- THE MAGIC ISLAND\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/06-the-magic-island-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/06-the-magic-island-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6160\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">06- MAGIC ISLAND<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The instant Longze\u2019s feet, touched the soil, she reverted to human form then; by carefully (noting) observing the secret tracks, she soon reached the massive (colossal) obsidian rock of a steep incline (gradient). She patiently waited for the precise moment, when the light of the (eclipsed) second moon streaming down for a spell, two minutes to be exact, revealed the secret, celestial (consecrated, sacred) doorway on the obsidian boulder (rock, sarsen). &nbsp;Longze, standing before it, invoked the specific incantation she\u2019d long ago gleaned from the Immortal Haskell\u2019s book and then pressed her right palm over the configuration of the eye (outline, shape etched) on the surface of the rock. &nbsp;With an aery sound the jet-black obsidian door slid opened, though for only one second; she hastily entered it, therefore, trespassing into the hidden unworldly realm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In that pitched darkness, acting purely on instinct, Longze carefully advanced further into the interior, at times negotiating the perilously narrow, full of shard, ledges (projections). &nbsp;Suddenly a hairy claw gripped at her left leg, she yanked it free, then with the quick flip of the forefinger and thumb, which produced a flame, she found herself staring at the most hideous monster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"6107\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/07-the-monster-in-the-cave\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/07-the-monster-in-the-cave.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"07- THE MONSTER IN THE CAVE\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/07-the-monster-in-the-cave.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/07-the-monster-in-the-cave.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6107\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">07- THE MONSTER IN THE CAVE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The monster however was chained to the wall of the cave, and when she, getting a grip on her fear, moved away from his reach, he whimpered, showing fangs but desperately clawing the empty air. Longze\u2019s initial fears jettisoned (discarded, dumped), she studied the hideous creature more intently; there was no real malice but instead, an unmistakable pain and misery registered in those pupils. His chest heaved painfully each time he inhaled and there were obvious burn marks festering, some of it black, where the silver metal of the (links) chain touched his skin. How long had he been imprisoned there in the pitch, ranched, sulfurous, suffocating air, forced to endure such anguished existence, without end? Longze could not help pitying the poor creature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequently, she did something that might have seemed unwise, but she felt perfectly right about it in her heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m not going to hurt you&#8230; I simply wish to help.\u201d She approached him tentatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He stopped his low growl resonating in his throat and then, inclining his head, almost with aghast hope, he simply stared at her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Longze\u2019s razor sharp gaze, thoughtfully for a time perused (examined) the chains constraining the monster; then, she smiled at him placatingly and placed her free hand (palm) on the thickest part of the chain- which held a tiny almost indiscernible, strange (marking) engraving on it- binding (fastening) his chest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequently, in a clear voice which resonated in the air, she invoked the ancient spell (an incantation), one of the few ones she\u2019d learned from Immortal Haskell. For few seconds silence reigned, and then, with a ear-splitting crackling sound all the chains binding the monster, one after the other shattered into bits and cascaded onto the dirt floor that hungrily swallowed it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"6142\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/08-raven-prince-thorsten-jarl\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/08-raven-prince-thorsten-jarl.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"08- RAVEN PRINCE THORSTEN JARL\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/08-raven-prince-thorsten-jarl.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/08-raven-prince-thorsten-jarl.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6142\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">08- RAVEN PRINCE THORSTEN JARL<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More remarkable still, that very instant the hideous monster was no more; in its stead stood a handsome, vigorous, stout young man, with long straight black hair down to his shoulders, brilliant blue eyes, clad in black garments &nbsp;and was of about twenty years in age, who looked to be of royal descent (pedigree, lineage).

Nihasa then, while the Prince Thorsten was rendered helpless and in semi-conscious state, had uttered an antediluvian (ancient) incantation which had transformed the demon into the prince\u2019s exact replica (likeness, facsimile). Before the culprit Nihasa had left the island, however, he\u2019d additionally spun another two primordial spells, one which transformed Prince Thorsten\u2019 into a hideous monster, the other, that magically imprisoned (confined) him there, till he torturously perished. Thorsten Jarl had been nearing the end of his life, when Longze, his benevolent saviour, had provided him this rare chance of, return and retribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thorsten Jarl had naturally asked if at present he could be of any help, however, Longze had sweetly refused and urged him instead, to in haste return and re-claim his kingdom. &nbsp;And so, after his sincere declaration that he would thereon forever be in Longze\u2019s debt, and that one day he would fully repay her for her kindness, they had quickly parted ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ~<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Longze then going the opposite direction and, further inward of the pitch, abysmal cave, had encountered many more hazards; nonetheless, she traversed (crossed) the sometimes unstable, shifting, rock bridges, followed through several subterranean caves, and braved countless other reticent (taciturn) or hostile phantom beings (that flew, floated or slithered), to eventually, steal the magical, glowing purple mushroom, in the centre of an islet (island, isle), surrounded by fast flowing, swirling (whirlpooling, eddying) molten lave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"6157\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bosbedtimestories.com\/2026\/02\/07\/dragon-longze-falls-in-love-bost-original-story-2026-part-3\/09-magic-mushroom\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/09-magic-mushroom.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"09- MAGIC MUSHROOM\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/09-magic-mushroom.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bosbedtimestories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/09-magic-mushroom.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6157\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">10- MAGIC MUSHROOM<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Returning home, she at once set to work, to concoct (produce) the medicine (remedy, cure): she shielded her breath with a cloth, for the purple mushroom as it was being crushed let out toxic vapours; contents reduced to a pulp, it was then boiled, to make tea with it; when it cooled, the liquid was carefully poured (in trickles) down Jedrik\u2019s forced open mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once ingested (consumed, downed, drunk), the color gradually returned to Jedrik Nenzo\u2019s pallid face and so, he was swiftly restored back to life.

They actually were convinced of the fact Jedrik had been for some time now, without his knowing, been enslaved (his core life force and human soul was being slowly ingested, siphoned off, devoured) by the evil incarnate, the demon white serpent that was also the demon white dragon, one and the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ~<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Four days had passed and Jedrik had not returned from his short business trip to the border marketplace. An in dept inquiry revealed Jedrik\u2019s last known position and the specifics (particulars) of a companion he\u2019d been seen with. The details of that contact (acquaintance, fellow) left no room for doubt. By then Berdis was worried and anticipating the grievous outcome, she shared her intentions with her sister Brenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;On the following night Berdis, intent on breaking her oath (of never transforming into a dragon) to Jedrik, she stood in a small clearing (a field) with her sister Brenda beside her. Subsequently, under the canopy of stars, a gentle breeze caressing her cheeks, she gazed briefly at the crescent moon, then invoked the ancient spell which summoned her inner force and instantly transformed her into her innate (inborn) self, which was the white dragon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brenda alighted (perched) on her back, the two set off on the projected (expected) rescue mission.
