The Fake Pen

Many stories have been told about the magical pen that turned out to be the fake pen afterall.

There was once a man who loved painting more than anything else in the world. He spent his days and nights working on his art until he perfected his art. Everyone said he was the best painter around. People even asked him to paint the things they imagined, and amazingly, his paintings would come true in the future, just as he had painted them.

Even though he was famous; he was also very kind-hearted.

But there was one thing he wanted more than anything: a magical pen that could turn anything he drew into reality. He had heard stories about this incredible pen and many had traveled to many far-off places searching for it. But no matter how hard they looked, no one ever found it.

He longed to one day also have his own search adventure.

One night, while he was asleep, he had a dream.

In his dream, he was climbing Mount Kaln and was about to fall off the edge when he landed on something very hard. It was a magical pen. That night, that was where his dream ended!

When he woke up, he knew exactly what he had to do.

He packed his bags and set off to climb Mount Kaln, just like he had seen it in his dream. He didn’t know how far he needed to go, so he decided he would reach the very top.

For three days, he climbed the mountain until he eventually ran out of food and felt weaker and weaker. Still, he didn’t want to give up—he had to find that pen!

Finally, he collapsed from exhaustion and fell right onto something hard. It was the pen from his dream!

With his last bit of strength and a piece of paper in hand, he picked it up and drew a heater and some food. The heater and food immediately came to life as soon as he finished drawing. But to his disappointment, they were made of paper and didn’t help him at all.

It was then that he realized that all the stories about the magical pen were all fake. He had found a fake pen instead!

Feeling sad and exhausted, he accepted his fate and lay down in the snow, ready to give up.
