I was the writer that put the dragons in the books of kingdoms and castle of Europe. And when appear the dragon. Was I went to Europe with my brother, and return we two alive, had only 16 years old and see my mother and lye say that I wasn't his son. The Dragon was see that king and returned alive. When I was almost grow I used to think in went to Europe to see if my mother need me, I was so inocent I would never dreamed that the king would think in kill the descedants of that man that he torture till death. But she was white she would love sons that wasn't white? She was friend of that friends that cause the death of my father? Was she already married with sons of another man? And one day came the notice that the king said that he wanted give to the sons of the dead black man consolation. So I saw that the old king was the hell of bad and was wanting kill us also. Only evil, why kill us that were babies and not the insurgements? My brother the older want disasparetely went to Europe our aunt doubt very much about the intentions of the king, came to our country that our mother belived the king would honor his promess. I don't know why make people believe that my brother was a lyar would save we two, I think that at the time the kings love lyers, was crime in Africa but people went to the presence of the kings to lye. I promess to him that I would be at his side saying that he was a lyer. In Europe he said with a so trustible eyes that he was one of the sons that I said that the best lyer was one that people doesn't doubt that he say lies. People laught of so believeble he was. With we bumbs in the street sleeping in the sidewalk, making that we haven't a coin people giving us alms. Our mother came to say that forgive us to lye, and felt pitty of we sleep in the sidewalk, that invite us to live in her house. One day the king make an audience to talk with all the city to see with my brother. I was with him and seeing that cuspidor king involving my brother with sweetness, saying the loved that was our father. Would be of that month that would came with sincerity? And in the middle of that I think what lye I could use to make that king believe in definetely that we were opportunists? I said very raw that I said for his girlfriend that he would returned that we were only friends and that Ilived all my life in Africe and never heard about those boys, probably they died in the travel an aunt of 10 years trying return to his country with 3 boys? The old king so old started to laught and said that he got what he wanted, he wanted kill the sosn of the black man, and he knew that they were already dead. My brother went out of the castle sad for belive for almost die. She came to say goodbye to us because after the audience with the king we would started walk back home.
I thought about the innocent boy that my father, when he went to Europe, in me being young and went a corrupt country that wasn't that of the dreams of my father, in the disapointed boy that was my brother to be cheated by an old sadistic king, and started write of what lived in my dreams, castles, kingdoms eternal love, dragons representing the evil. One day because my books I was famous in Europe, I was still single, I had so much sadness to think that I was looking for love. One day they went to knew the writer, me. And they thought that I was so handsome that they went and returned to my country, to say that I had a title in Europe. I said that I was black, and they said that I would be called the dark and not black that I would be considered white. I went to Europe and there had an arranged marriage for me. I married with her and we were happy. Rute Bezerra de Menezes Gondim
