Scene – Secret Sky Village's hall where everyone is seated in the meeting room. Suddenly Precious speaks:Precious – Okay, so let's add the rest of the Goblin villages.Gesha – Wait, Lord Precious.Precious – What happened?Gesha – There are more Goblin villages here, that's correct, but they are only in Goblin territory. This part is wrong.Precious – Meaning?Gesha – There are many beasts and monsters living in this jungle. Also, there are two caves and one dungeon here where humans cannot enter because the jungle is very deep underground. Even Goblins are afraid to go there.Precious – So it means this village is not only threatened by humans, elves, orcs, ogres, demons but also by monsters and beasts in the jungle.Gesha – Yes, Lord Precious, you are absolutely right.Precious – Okay, I will check all of that. Lama and his companions will set traps at the village borders, and as much as possible, don't force yourself to go deep into the jungle.Lama – Yes, Lord Precious.Precious – But one good thing is no human or their kind can attack the village because our wall is the jungle. The monsters and beasts under the jungle protect this wall, so if they want to come here, they will have to cross all of them.Gesha – Yes.Precious – Alright, let's end this meeting here, it's almost night anyway.Everyone – Yes, Lord Precious.Scene – Everyone leaves. Then Precious remembers something.Precious (thinking) – Where will I spend the night? Gesha, where can I stay? Is there any room or place to spend the night? Can such arrangements be made?Gesha – You don't need to worry. As soon as I got the information, I prepared a room for you.Precious – That's more like it.Scene – Gesha feels very happy inside after getting the compliment.Gesha – Come, I will take you there.Scene – Gesha takes Precious along, and the scene shifts to a hallway in the hall where they are walking. Then stairs appear which both climb. After climbing, they see the door of a room where Gesha enters first, followed by Precious. The room is quite large and is on the top floor of the hall. There is a balcony and a window in the room. From the balcony, the whole village is visible, and from the opposite window, the jungle and open sky can be seen. The room has a double-sized bed and is well decorated.Precious – This is quite a nice room. It was prepared in less than a day. Truly praise-worthy whoever did this.Gesha (thinking) – It was me who did it.Gesha – I'm glad you liked the room. This room has been yours since this hall was built.Precious – Very good.Gesha – Hmm, okay.Precious – By the way, Gesha...Gesha – Yes, tell me.Precious – Make a schedule for me. From tomorrow, we will try to bring as many Goblin villages here as possible. The day after tomorrow, we will settle the beasts, and on the next day, we will take the monsters into our team. Then we will see what to do next. For now, fix this plan.Gesha – Yes, Lord Precious.Precious – Alright, see you tomorrow. You can go now.Gesha – But I want to stay.Precious – Don't you want to rest? You've also done a lot today.Gesha – No, I'm not tired. I can still work.Precious – But I am tired. I will rest now.Gesha (softly) – That's not how it works. I have been waiting for you for so long and only did a little work. How can I let you sleep alone? I want to stay here too.Precious – Did you say something?Gesha – No, your ears are ringing. Maybe I'm leaving now. Please rest, Lord Precious.Precious – But I felt like you said something.Scene – Gesha is leaving.Gesha – I said your ears are ringing.Precious – But I felt like you said something about me.Gesha – I don't have the courage to say anything about my lord.Scene – Gesha closes the door and leaves. Precious keeps thinking.Precious (thinking) – But why did I feel like she said something about me?Scene – Transition from night to day. Morning comes. Zoom in on the hall of Secret Sky Village, showing the meeting room.Precious – Okay, so let's start implementing the plans we made yesterday. Also, I gave roles and names to everyone yesterday, but no rules. So I am making three rules now.
Rule 1: No one fights among themselves.
Rule 2: No one fights with humans or their kinds, but if they attack first, you can defend yourself and kill them if needed.
Rule 3: Anyone who betrays will be killed. However, if there is a valid reason for betrayal, the punishment may be less or none at all. These three rules must be followed.Everyone – Yes, Lord Precious.Precious – Dismissed.Scene – Everyone leaves the meeting room, only two remain: Precious and Gesha.Precious – Gesha, now we should move. By the way, how many Goblin villages are there in total?Gesha – Excluding this village, there are five Goblin villages.Precious – Will they have enough living space?Gesha – We will know after they arrive, but when you gave your program yesterday, I told the farmers to cut as many Jinni trees around the village as possible to make some space.Precious – That was good. You're quite a secretary.Gesha – Thanks.Precious – Then let's go.Scene – Precious teleports himself and Gesha to the nearby Goblin village. Both arrive in front of the village. Gesha is shocked by the sudden teleport.Gesha – What was that?Precious – Oh, that's one of my skills – instant teleport.Gesha – You have quite a few skills.Precious – Yes, I do. Let's start. Who is the leader of this Goblin village? Can you tell me?Gesha – Absolutely. Let's go.Scene – Gesha starts going into the village with Precious following. Nobody stops her because all Goblins know she is one of them. But everyone stares at her because she is accompanied by a human child, Precious. Gesha stops in front of a house and knocks. A big Goblin, who seems to be the hub Goblin but quite old, comes out.Hub Goblin – Who are you and what do you want?Gesha – My name is Gesha. I am also a Goblin but have human-like skills and ears because of a super rare evolution.Hub Goblin – Get to the point.Gesha – As you wish. This is my lord, Lord Precious. He is the lord of the Goblin village nearby where multiple races live.Hub Goblin – So what do you want me to do?Gesha – Ah, don't you understand?Hub Goblin – What? I don't understand?Gesha – We have come to add your village under our village. If you agree, you can join our village.Hub Goblin – What will we get in return?Gesha – Now that's a good question. Four things: protection, work, food, and a good place to live.Hub Goblin – The deal isn't that bad. I agree. When will this happen?Gesha – Very good. Lord Precious, these people need to be shifted.Precious – Now.Gesha and Hub Goblin – Now? Meaning?Precious – Now means now.Hub Goblin – But it will take time to pack the goods and tell the people, at least one day.Gesha – Yes, Lord Precious.Precious – Okay, then tell me later. But I have one condition too – they will have to work. They will get protection, food, houses, and good goods, but they will have to work.Hub Goblin – Yes, no problem with that. But they can't shift now.Precious – Leave that to me.Scene – Hub Goblin looks at Gesha, and Gesha looks back at him. With eye signals, they communicate. Both seem confused. Suddenly the entire village disappears from in front of Gesha's eyes.Gesha – What just happened, Lord Precious?Precious – Nothing special. This is transport magic. I have sent this entire village near Secret Sky.Scene – Precious connects his mind with the Hub Goblin and says…PRECIOUS:
Chinta mat karo. Mene tum sabko apne magic se teleport kar diya hai.HUB GOBLIN:
Lekin… pure village ke sath?PRECIOUS:
Haan. Aur udhar jo cheezein sambhal rahe hain, unko baat diya hai. Tension mat lo. Ab tum apne villagers ko araam se sab bata dena.SCENE: Mind connection disconnect hota hai.PRECIOUS:
Chalo Gesha, ab agle village chalte hain.GESHA:
Haan!
SCENE:
Issi tarah Precious aur Gesha ne baaki ke 3 villages ko bhi "Secret Sky" par teleport kar diya. Fir wo log last village me teleport hote hain…SCENE:
…aur Gesha jhatke me ruk jaati hai.PRECIOUS:
Yeh kya ho gaya?!GESHA:
Kahi hum kisi aur jagah toh nahi aa gaye?PRECIOUS:
Nahi, jagah toh yahi hai…GESHA:
Toh fir... ye village... tabah ho chuka hai...
SCENE:
Poora village jal chuka hai. Har jagah raakh, kuch zameen me gaddhe, aur jali hui lakdi… kuch jagah aag abhi bhi jal rahi hai.PRECIOUS:
Udhar koi hai…SCENE:
Precious aur Gesha bhaag kar ped ke piche jaate hain.GESHA:
Ek bacha?!PRECIOUS:
Kya tum hume bata sakte ho yahaan kya hua?SCENE:
Bacha dara hua hai, aankhein band karke baitha hai.GESHA:
Lord Precious… ab kya karein?PRECIOUS:
Iska mental state heal karte hain – usse pata chalega kya hua.GESHA:
Heal?PRECIOUS:
"Mental Stat Heal" – jo dar, shock ya emotional trauma hota hai, wo theek karta hai.GESHA:
Kya asar hua?PRECIOUS:
Hua hai… par kam nahi bana. Mental heal ho gaya, lekin dar abhi bhi baaki hai.GESHA:
Toh fir ab?PRECIOUS:
Just watch...SPELL: "Sleep!" (Bacha so jaata hai)
SPELL: "Cherry Blossom!" (Soothing illusion of a garden)
SPELL: "Over Sleep!" (Sleep todta hai)
GESHA:
Vo… uth gaya!SCENE:
Ab wo bacha mentally aur physically theek hai.
PRECIOUS:
Batao beta… kya hua yahaan? Hum tumhari madad karenge.GESHA:
Kya monster tha? Beast? Ya koi demon?GOBLIN BOY:
Nahi… vo human the.PRECIOUS:
Human?!GESHA:
Lekin humans itni tabahi kaise kar sakte hain?GOBLIN BOY:
Unhone black dress pahani thi… vo bohot powerful the.SCENE:
Precious ko ek yaad aati hai – jab wo ek saal tak iss world ko observe kar raha tha, usne ek "Black Gang" dekhi thi.PRECIOUS:
Hmm… lagta hai wahi log hain. Kuch karna hoga jaldi hi.
GESHA:
Is bache ka kya karein, Lord Precious?PRECIOUS:
Apne saath leke chalte hain. Jab tak main yahaan hoon, main isko sambhal lunga.GESHA:
Jaise aap theek samjhein.
SCENE:
Tino Secret Sky teleport ho jaate hain.PRECIOUS:
Ruko… pehle iska naam rakhta hoon. Main tumhe naam deta hoon — Grass.SCENE:
Tabhi Grass evolve ho jaata hai — ek Hobgoblin ban jaata hai.
SCENE:
Precious ko ek idea aata hai.PRECIOUS:
Gesha, mujhe thodi der ke liye Grass ke saath akela chhod do.GESHA:
Jaise aap kahen, lekin apna khayal rakhna.SCENE:
Gesha chali jaati hai.
PRECIOUS (thinking):
"Mujhe pata hai naam rakhne se monsters evolve karte hain. Aur naam pe naam rakha jaa sakta hai… toh ek goblin kitni power jhel sakta hai?"GRASS:
Matlab?PRECIOUS:
Main tumhara naam bar bar dunga. Jab lagay ki aur nahi jhel sakte, toh keh dena, main ruk jaaunga.GRASS:
Hmm.PRECIOUS: "Main firse tumhe naam deta hoon – Grass!"
→ Evolution into High Goblin
PRECIOUS: "Firse – Grass!"
→ Evolution into Aelbin (height and build increase)
PRECIOUS: "Firse – Grass!"
→ More skills unlocked and upgrades
GRASS:
Maaf kijiye Lord Precious… ab aur power li toh shayad blast ho jaaye aur main mar jaaun.PRECIOUS:
Theek hai… toh ab tak 9 baar evolve ho chuke ho. Ab tumhara current form hai — NeoGoblin.PRECIOUS (thinking):
"Mere paas koi 'status check' skill nahi thi… aur abhi bhi nahi hai. Sirf form aur race ka naam dekh sakta hoon. Waise bhi, yeh skill har kisi ke paas nahi hoti."PRECIOUS:
Aram karo. Baad mein tumhari power check karenge.GRASS:
Ji Lord Precious!
SCENE:
Precious vahaan se chala jaata hai aur teleport kiye hue goblin villagers ke paas pahuchta hai.PRECIOUS:
Toh idhar ka kya status hai?SCENE:
Gesha aati hai.GESHA:
Sabhi ko ghar mil chuka hai, kaam bhi de diya gaya hai. Sab log ache se settle ho chuke hain.PRECIOUS:
Yeh toh achhi baat hai.SCENE:
Ye dono baatein karte karte chal rahe hain.PRECIOUS:
Koi dikkat?GESHA:
Nahi… ek chhoti si hai.PRECIOUS:
Batao.GESHA:
Sabhi aapka intezaar kar rahe hain.PRECIOUS:
Mera? Kyun?GESHA:
Obviously – aap unka naam rakh kar unko evolve jo karoge!PRECIOUS:
Arey yaar… theek hai.PRECIOUS (thinking):
"Mere 'Refresh Magical' aur 'Regain Mana' skills se meri strength kabhi khatam nahi hoti. Lekin naam pe naam dena… ye bohot hi khatarnak cheez hai."SCENE:
Precious sabhi ko naam de deta hai, unka shukriya bhi karta hai, aur 3 important rules ke baare mein bhi batata hai.
