Elves Valley

Alice lived in a small house on the outskirts of the village. Although her parents worked in the field from morning till night, they led a modest and poor life. Certainly, how to get rich under such circumstances. Strong hurricanes often happened there, they spoiled and destroyed crops.

And one day, when father and mother had gone to work, heavy clouds brooded over the house, lightning flashed, a strong hail started, and then the wind broke out. It was of such a force that it began to demolish all the buildings around, to smash the boats into pieces at the nearest marina.
