 The Temple

It was a boiling hot day in egypt Siwa and I had been walking for hours. I had been lost within the dunes for days and I was running low on water and food. I had left civilization to go on an adventure, to find the lost temple of treasure.

The temple of treasure was a legend but it was a tail that most believed. It began like this.

There once was an emperor who loved his treasure more than he loved his wife. Every day he would just lie in his jewels and gold for an hour. But one day someone broke into the castle and stole heaps of treasure. When the emperor found out he ordered his servants to build a temple far away where no one would find it.

So the servants did as they were told and headed out into the desert to start building the temple, They finished it in two weeks and stashed the treasure inside. Everything was going well until they had to go back. They had done as the Emperor ordered no one could find it the only problem was no one could find there way back either.

Confused with why the servants had not returned the emperor sent guards to go find them.But when they did not return he sent more guards. He did so every day for a month until one day he had no guards left.With the Emperor unprotected the civilians turned against him and killed him. Now the Temple was left somewhere in the desert waiting for someone to claim it’s treasure.

Many had tried to find it but none had succeeded as instead of finding the Temple they found their deaths. Now I had ventured out to find this temple as well and so far it was not looking good. Tired and dehydrated i saw something in the distance it was a lake. I scampered towards it and filled up my drink bottle before lying in it and cooling down.

But that was not all I saw. About twenty metres away stood the Temple. I had found it, the lost temple. I made my way towards it and heaved open the doors.But to my surprise I was not the only one in the Temple.

Dear reader how was there  people in the temple if no one could find it ?

Answer: Not all of the servants were men so some of them ended up having children and they survived of fish from the lake and got water from the lake As well, they also had shelter from storms in the temple.
