Fwoooosh… … fffffffhhhhh … whooo-oooshhh…
A low, eerie breeze slithers between the trees, carrying faint whispers that sound almost human.
Hhhhhh—ffffwoooshhhhhh… … whhhhhhhoooaaahhh…
The leaves rustle like something unseen brushing past them. Twigs snap faintly in the distance.
WoooooOOOOHHhhh… … ffffffffffhhhhh … creeeeeakkk…
Tree trunks groan and creak under the pressure as if something heavy leans against them.
FFWOOOOOSH—HHhhhssshhhhhh! … whoooaaaahhhh...
A sharp gust rattles the branches, followed by silence so heavy it feels alive.
OooooooOOOOooooooOOOOoooooohhhhhh…
"Is it today or every year that the forest feels like a perfect horror movie forest" Someshwar asked.
"You are right today it really feels like a horror movie" said pandit.
They reached the river.
"Look Someshwar, Aditya and Sharvani this is Saptamrita river that forms at the point where Ganga, Yamuna, Godavari, Saraswati, Narmada, Sindhu and Kaveri meet and give birth to this river."
The river water was transparent. Anybody was able to see inside the river clearly. Golden colour steam was coming outside from the river. They all started arti of the river. While doing arti it was calm and quiet. The arti ended. They kept the diya on the rock.
"In the legend it is said that if a person can touch the water of the river he can draw the water from the river, anybody of likes to try" said Hariprasad.
Someshwar bent down to touch the river water. When his hand touched the river water he withdrew it in a second. Hariprasad and pandit came to see his hand and nothing had happened to his hand.
Next Aditya bent down to touch the river water. When his hand touched the river water.
TSSSSSSHHHHHHH!!!
He withdrew his hand as fast as possible.
"AAAGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
This hand was burning like he had put his hand on the fire. Hariprasad and pandit looked at the wound. They turned to look at Sharvani she was looking at the something inside the woods. Eyes darting wildly looking inside the woods.
Someshwar looked above and saw the same unknown creatures head looking inside the forest. He signaled pandit to look up. He went near the Sharvani and brought her near the group all of them lifted the diya and started walking back to the village.
When they reached enough distance away.
"I didn't believe we will get to see Chimorath in the Ishwar Madhuban" the pandit said.
"Who is Chimorath" asked Someshwar.
"In the holy text of God of magic they are the arcane creatures who have human head, neck of giraffe, upper body of gorilla, right hand of wolf, left hand of cat, lower body of horse, first right and left leg of cow and lion, second right and left leg of an elephant and dog. They are carnivorous they hunt alone" said pandit.
"How much more do you know uncle" Sharvani asked.
"I don't know much about them the holy text is written in unknown language. I was only able to read what was was written in our local language" the pandit replied.
"So what do you know about Ishwar Madhuban" asked Someshwar.
"I don't know much about it but I know that this place is house for different arcane creatures " said pandit.

They reached back to the village.
