THE LAKE OF COLOR

Old man : “Prabu, I suggest you adopt a child. Because you haven’t child to change
you rule the king when you have old.”

King : “I don’t agree with your suggest!”

Old man : “Why you don’t agree Prabu? All people in this kingdom want just ypur
child who change when you not rule this kingdom.”

King : “Because for us, our own daughter or son is better than adopted children. Do
you think like that my wife?”

Queen : “Yes, I think so. Our own daughter or son is better than adopted children.”

King : “Ohh my God. Please, give me and my wife a child. I will promise to you, if you
give me a child I will love them.”

People in the Kingdom : “I bring this presents to you Your Majesty. This is the
express from me. I feel happy if Queen get pregnant.”

King : “Thanks a lot.”

Nine months later a princess was born. People sent their presents again as a gift to
a little princess. This baby grew as a beautiful teenager then.

People in the Kingdom: “Ohh.. How beautiful you are.”

Queen : “Thank you. She is the daughter who I wait during time.”

People in the Kingdom : “This is, I bring it for the beautiful baby.”

King : “Thank you very much. I accept your presents.”

People in the Kingdom: “Your majesty Prabu, this is I bring a present to you
beautiful daughter. I’m sorry I just can give your daughter like this. Please accept
my present.”

King : “I will accept your present. Thank you for this present.”

Prabu only took some gold and jewels. Then he brought them to the gold smith.

King : “Please make a beautiful necklace for my daughter.”

Goldsmith : “My pleasure, Your Majesty.”

The goldsmith worked with all his heart and his ability. He wanted to create the
most beautiful necklace in the word because he loved the princess.

Goldsmith : “This is the beautiful necklace. I make it with my heart and my ability. I
hope you happy with this necklace.”

King : “Ohh… how beautiful this necklace.”

The birthday came. People gathered in the palace field. When Prabu and Queen
appeared, people welcomed them happily. Prabu and his wife waved to their
beloved people.

Cheers were louder and louder when the princess appeared with her fabulous
pretty face. Everybody admired her beauty. Prabu got up from his chair. A man gave
him a small and glamorous pillow. A wonder full necklace was on it. Prabu took that
necklace.

King : “My beloved daughter, today I give this necklace to you. This necklace is gift
from people in this country. They love you so much. They presented it for you to
express their happiness, because you have growing to a women. Please wear this
necklace.”

Princess : “I don’t want to accept it! It’s ugly

Then she threw the necklace. The beautiful necklace was broken. The gold and
jewels were spread out on the floor.

Everybody couldn’t say anything. They never thought that their beloved princess
would did that cruel thing. Nobody spoke. In their silence people heard the queen
crying. Than everybody was crying.

Then there was a miracle. Earth was crying. Suddenly, from the underground, a
spring emerged. It made a pool of water. The place was getting full. Soon place
became a big lake. The lake sank all of the kingdom.

Nowadays, the water on that lake is not as full as before. There is only a small lake
now. People called the lake “Talaga Warna”. It is mean “Lake of Color”. It’s located
in the peak, West Java. On a bright day, the lake is full of color. So beautiful and
amazing. These colors come from shadows of forest, plants, flowers, and sky.
around the lake. But some people said that the color are from the princess’s
necklace, which spreads at the bottom of the lake.
