A fairytale of a selfish self made leader who captures people and puts them into his evil spell . A time traveler, but the will of the trapped people free themselves.

       Tale Of Signor Etor

    Our fantasy story is of a mean, and greedy man who found the secret of travel through time. Our story is about a city of people from all aver the world. Living in the town called Loomus. Each person which lived there were from a different time on earth. The city of Loomus in a remote forest where their leader brought them to mine for silver. Keeping them in fear of being cased into lost time through space.

    Singor Etor has a secret tunnel under his stone house. His tunnel leads to a secret cave hidden away from everyone, which he snatched from their original home, so they could never return back through time. Signor Etor built a huge stone house on an underground bubbling spring water pond. He also built every stone dwelling in a circle surrounding his huge stone house. To keep people under his control. People he took through the time travel

cave, and kept them at Loomus.

    Inside his stone home are cages to keep those people who tried to escape Loomus. Some who were captured have never ever been seen again. Signor would leave them off in another place of time as punishment. Signor Etor was not known for his niceness. He wanted the silver to use while away at places he visited to live like royalty. Signor being from an earlier century, and discovering an entrance of a time travel cave. And slowly built the city of Loomus around his dwelling, obsessed with forcing people to mine for silver.

    Signor had them work the land he chose, and the people of Loomus believed silver to be the secret to his time travel. As his city got larger with more and more people, they paid up more silver to live in peace from Signor; by fear of being sent away to an unknown place through time. Signor was careful not to let anyone see him enter the secret tunnel to his cave. He has been alive for hundreds of years, as the time travel cave goes back in time, and into the future. Giving Signor the power to reverse aging, and live forever a rich man; anywhere in the world he wanted to.

    His people were always hungry for different outsiders after a while. Other visitors to Loomus were sough out to help build sculptures for the house of stone Signor lived in. Too many people tried to escape, and the mining was difficult. So they wanted Signor to let them build a huge sculpture for themselves. Their idea was to attract the others to stay in Loomus, and build small shops to make money and prosper. But Signor was not known for his fairness. The people of Loomus knew a price would have to be paid, and were ready with another plot for the structure. Their purpose was to trick Signor, and flee for home using the cave as means of escaping.

    Signor wanted the structure to be built on his pond for himself. Signor wanted any new visitors to follow his trails leading to the center of Loomus to bring silver and offer to the statue 'Man 2024'. The people were now sure Signor Etor came from the future year 2024. All of Signor's art sculptures were time stamped way into the future.

   Tracking down Signor has never been done. His cave is too well hidden. Some are saying the entrance; which is connected to a tunnel system. Every person who ever passed through it never returned. There was only one direction, and that was to Loomus. Which even the cave entrance magically vanishes once inside, and disappears back into the future, or the past. Only Signor knew the secret. But they knew when coming to Loomus, the tunnels begin, or end inside his house. They would one day figure out how it works. Silver would be the key.

    Signor only surface when people are on his sculpture exhibit. Loomus people summon him by going to his house and leave one of his creations he had them build. Signor known for his nastiness always showed up furious. Now saying he has a message from the future to his people of Loomus again. One fearful city dweller stood atop a boulder to speak, demanding that Signor bring a sculpture back with him from his travel through time. All part of their plot to capture him off guard.

    Signor still agitated, but agreed to the demand just for keeping the peace. To bring back a huge wooden structure, Man 2024. A statue being taller than any house in Loomus. Signor saying he received a message from the future for the city of Loomus people. The statue will be placed on his pond over the constant rush of water. The Man 2024, will appear as if it emerged from the center of earth.But under one condition; go and collect every bit of silver in the city. When the amazing Signor returns. Loomus will have your creation; Man 2024.
 
    All the people did what Signor asked. They would collect all the silver, but not hand it over until after they have their statue. Their plans were to trap Signor Etor. To keep him locked in his home long enough until they locate, and figure out how the cave works. Because, Singor wanted to keep their silver and make coins to sell to the new visitors. Having them throw money in his pond beneath the feet of the Man 2024 statue. The people of Loomus were tired of Singor, they wanted out; once and for all.

   The good people of Loomus planned it well. In their hearts, they really wanted to gain knowledge of the cave, and to go back through time to get home. Once Signor is trapped, and their inside the cave to learn time travel. The Loomus people would come back, be rid of Signor once and for all. Regain control of their city, and live on to have people of Loomus prosper. Or truthfully, get out of Loomus forever.

    The people of Loomus were waiting, watching for Signor to return. Some were deep in the forest watching another tunnel. Six others were waiting at the Signor stone house. Every possible idea of their plan was already in motion. Then they finally seen Signor come out of his cave between the pond and stone house.They could not believe their eyes at how the cave appeared. Seeing, and staring at Signor, he was wearing their silver, dressed head to toe in a shinny tight suit. Never witnessing this before, they were sure Signor was going to take off with all the last remaining silver left in Loomus.

    They now know where the cave entrance is. The cave is still open, but a bright blue light was beaming through from behind it blinding their vision of Signor. They needed to distract him but he was almost invisible. They seen Signor raise both arms in rage, and went back inside the cave.

    The Loomus people had nothing to fear any longer, they  figured out the secret of the time travel cave. Now they would wait until Singor comes back, and capture him. Still bitter about losing all their silver to Signor. Their plan must not fail, or they will be left in Loomus with no hope of leaving, no more silver was left. They were stranded forever.

   They planned to use false silver to give to Signor on his return. Once the cave entrance opens up, Signor won't be able to leave through his cave again without real silver. The secret to it's time travel is the silver. Stopping him, capturing Signor, put the real silver inside to keep the cave opening. Come back and find their place back in time while the cave is still open.

    Finally they captured Signor and locked him in his cage while another person entered the cave to travel through time for them. When he came back and told all the stranded people of Loomus, there is a way to get home. One piece of silver in their hand would be all it takes to travel back through time to where they once belonged.

    The entire city; people of Loomus were all in line, one by one; ready for to enter into their new destiny. Going home and leave the city of Loomus behind them. Eventually the last person living in Loomus was Signor Etor. No more silver in the city to mine, and all alone old and stranded there.

Unable to travel through time anymore. Signor and his nasty plan was certain to backfire on him. The good people from Loomus never returned to save Signor from himself. He had not one piece of silver left, and withered away a rotten person at the city he created, Loomus. Signor remained

lost in time forever.

I believe by watching what folks are reading, there is money to be made in writing children stories, and cop mysteries. What a contrast, but I call them like I see them.
