About exactly 1000 years from now, there was a boy named Perculous who helped his grandpa in his farm after his parents died when he was about 7 years old. He was half human, half alien unlike anyone else in the alien galaxy and wasn't very confident in doing things. To begin with, the soil was great, the plants grew plentiful, and Perculous and his grandfather always loved to grow broccoli and lettuce. It was like this for every single year.

During the next year, the soil was solid, the plants were dead and causing a huge disease, and there wasn’t anything Perculous or his grandfather could do to fix it. They thought they may have to leave and start fresh in another farmland area.

While gobbling on the very last of their crops, Grandfather said, “ I know that you aren’t very confident but, Perculous you are the only person in his galaxy who could save his galaxy from collapsing. About 8 years ago, a year before you were born we had the silver diamond,” said Grandfather.

 “What was the silver diamond ?”Asked Perculous.

Grandpa answered, “ It was the most precious thing in the galaxy. The very powerful item which makes our crops grow plentiful, the soil soft and well for farming, and most of all the thing that makes us live, keeping our galaxy safe, protected, and alive. And now this year it has struck our farm with a deadly disease of plants. The Silver Diamond  was stolen by an unknown galaxy and you must give it back to our galaxy in order to save us all. I am depending on you to face the challenges that you encounter on this journey in order to save our farm. You don’t have much time. You will use Mercury, the ship that will bring you to this human galaxy. But, first you must go to the land of Sorcerers and meet Sorcerer Gatlerty who will give you a special power so you may survive this trip.” 

That evening, Perculous knew he had to do something quick before his galaxy collapses. He hopped on Mercury, said goodbye to his grandpa, and in no time was heading to the Land of Sorcerers. When he reached there, he didn’t know where to start looking for Sorcerer Gatlerty. He checked deep in the woods first and then while looking for Sorcerer Gatlerty, Perculous spotted a huge golden light up on a tall tree that could be seen probably from a mile away. Perculous saw a small house in front of him and up there that had the name Gatlerty engraved in the door. Perculous climbed up the  tall tree and got a wound from the very sharp bark on the tree. He shook it off and continued climbing up the tree and when he reached the small house, he knocked on the door.

 “ Hello, Hello” said Perculous.
