The Man and His Quest to Mount Success

Grab your­self a cup of cof­fee and sit back an relax. I have a story to tell you.

There was a man that was given a quest. This man lived in a time of drag­ons, knights, and other myth­i­cal crea­tures that no longer exist. To say the least his quest was going to be a dan­ger­ous one. He would have to leave his fam­ily and his home that he knows oh so well. He has to leave a life that he has grown com­fort­able with.

But he still accepts this quest, as dan­ger­ous as it may be, because deep down he isn’t happy. There is a greater glory in his life that he feels he must achieve. There must to be some way to make things bet­ter. For him­self but even more so for his lov­ing fam­ily. Times are hard and he knows he can pro­vide a bet­ter life. He knows it, deep down, that he can bring hap­pi­ness to his fam­ily and the land they live in.

If he suc­ceeds in his quest he will make the world he knows and loves a bet­ter place. If he reaches the moun­tain and claims The Cup of Dreams he will bring light to the rest of the world.

On the way are many obsta­cles. There are many dan­gers that stand between this man and his quest. He takes with him the tools to defeat his foes. But he will need much more than that to become the hero he so desires.

He pre­pares for the long jour­ney ahead and thinks of rea­son for start­ing this jour­ney. A few days ago an old man appeared to him in a vision. The man was old and wise and the man sensed some­thing a lit­tle more to the old man. The old man gave him his quest, the quest that would save the world and bring a lighter, hap­pier life to everyone.

Some­how he knew it was up to him to make a dif­fer­ence. And he lis­tened to the old man telling him what he needed to do he started to won­der if it was pos­si­ble. The jour­ney for this quest was not going to be easy. The man lis­tened intently to what he was going to have to do to reach Mount Success.

Your jour­ney starts on the Plain of Over­whelm­ing. It’s a large expanse of tall brown grass that blows in the wind. It seems to draw on for as far as the eye can see. Once you make your way into the Plains of Over­whelm­ing you be able to see the end of it either way. You will have no sense of direc­tion as every­thing looks the same. But there is one way to make it through. Look up and you will see a guide soar­ing high in the sky. A great big winged beast that will lead you across the Plains if it deems you worthy.

Once you enter the cave and claim the Cup of Dreams your quest will be com­plete. You will have brought glory to the land and to your fam­ily. I bid you farewell and hope to see you at the end of your jour­ney to Mount Success.

With that the old man dis­ap­peared as sud­denly as he came, leav­ing the man won­der­ing. The vision was still just as vivid to him now as it was when it hap­pened and he knew it to be true. He grabbed the reigns of his horse and kissed his wife and child good bye. He won­dered if he would ever see them again. But this was some­thing that had to be done.

Avoid­ing any­more delays from the long­ing in his wife’s eyes he spurred the horse on and made his way towards the Plains of Overwhelming.
