Water For Elephants Novels & Stories

"Cheer up, Hans. There are still lots of things a water elemer can do." Hans, who knew Mac is a water elemer, looked up at him with a small hope in his eyes. "Really?" the boy asked. Mac nodded. The orange head then turned a bit smug. "Of course. Do you know a water elemer can make water from thin air with his magic?" Hans blinked. "Yes. Father Granger taught me that, but I can only make a tiny bubble..." Mac nodded with a him. "Water is very important to us you know. If we missed a day without drinking water, we would be very, very sick two days later."

"Why was it so hard for you to lift the rocks?" "It's hard," he replied. "It was like something was pulling it down." "Right," Elena affirmed. "How about water?" "It's too little of it," Rony said. "It's deep below the ground and it's drying up." "That was the river of time," Elena said. "It's polluted." "Princess, you need to explain what you mean of that," an elderly said. "We found a well here. Next to the giant oak tree. It was where we get our clean water. So far, no one died here in dehydration."

'But it’s still there. --- It had rained recently and the buckets, all sixteen of them, were full to the brim. The water was somewhat cloudy and speckled with the debris gained on the way down, as well as the mildew that broke loose from the pails. They refilled on their own accord if rain held off too long and the supply became low. No one ever saw it though; the old watched kettle never boils. Consequently, the crew avoided the room when they were low, fearing infernal repercussion should they something at work.

There in front of them was an abyss, which glittered with black water. The golden mare put its mouth near the water to have a sniff, perhaps due to thirst, but Nimuel pulled it back. "Don't, Nexus. It might be poisonous," she whispered urgently. "Very wise, Nimuel Saelther, wise indeed. Be known, though, that the water here is perfectly safe for consumption. It is not, however, plausible, to move forward this point without solving the next puzzle in your paths," the voice whispered. As the stallions got busy quenching their thirst on the edge of the river, Nimuel walked upto Aelanor, who was pondering at it.

Before that, she made a big conch with a leaf that could carry a fair amount of water. "Drink it." Elsa also helped her to drink water. The girl drank the water like she had been thirsty for many days, and even started licking the conch. "You don't have to lick it. There's a little water falling from a small tap. You can drink from there, but now if you drink more water, you'll feel restless, so sit down and rest, then drink more." Elsa was also sad to see how the people here are kept like animals, not even given enough water.

He patiently explained. "But things are different now," I insisted. "What if we find an alternative to support our daily living?" I advised. "That is impossible," General Amber rebuked. "Say, for example, our main source of water is the great Bhura River in Aqua Edis. If they close their border then all the other lands will suffer." "How are we going suffer? The Aquans may be water people, but they can't stop the water from flowing. It will continue to flow down to our streams, then we can make reservoirs."

"This is Ellie. This is Peanut. This is Big Boy. This is Tiny. This is Ella. And this is Jumbo!" "That's a lot of elephants." "I love elephants. They remember. Mama says elephants never forget." Margaret's eyes fill with tears again. "That's true. Elephants remember everything. Just like people." The visit lasts an hour. Then Ethan gets tired. Cranky. Ready for lunch and a nap. "I should go," Margaret says. "Thank you for letting me meet him. For giving me this." "He's a good kid. Despite everything. Despite his genetics. Despite his history. He's just a good kid."

I said. Chuckling softly, he handed me a bottle of water and leaned forward to turn the rabbit once more. " You didn't feel this from that steam you spent so long playing in did you?" I asked as I uncapped the bottle and held it to my lips taking quite a large sip, I hadn't had anything to drink all day and was more dehydrated than I realized. " At least it would be better than the river we had to bathe in last time we were here, the animals used it as a birthing pool if I remember correctly."

She said with pride on her face for her son, it was a good day for her and the smile on her face showed how glad she was. “It’s a usual tradition for other tribes to partake in this ceremony, more are coming and it would be a great event” she added as they walked towards a big sinkhole in the ground. The massive size of the sinkhole was enough to trap three elephants, it was also too deep for any human to survive a fall in it. Blue looked around and found a big cave and in front of that cave was Mbaru, the first son of Miriam. The eighteen year old boy was unfazed by the next thing that could happen.

"Your pack's Fire elementals demand conquest. Your pack's hunger demands our water." "My pack's elemental core is stability, Chief," I returned, speaking aloud for the human observers but projecting my thought clearly to him. "The Alliance is a guarantee of non-interference. We seek to protect your water, not claim it." I presented our offer, the Alliance would use its resources supplied by Liam's human contracts to build Subsurface Condensation Siphons technology that would tap into the humidity of the high desert air, creating new, supplementary water sources for the outlying clans, without touching the sacred River of Sand.
