After a joyous reunion with their families, Saheli, Ankan, and Subham made their way back to Vidur's mansion, eager to unravel the secrets hidden within the mysterious cubes they had acquired in Africa.
As they entered the opulent halls of the mansion, Vidur greeted them with a warm smile, his eyes twinkling with anticipation. "Ah, my young adventurers, welcome back!" he exclaimed, ushering them into the study where the cubes awaited.
Excitement bubbled within them as they gathered around the table, the cubes resting before them like tantalizing enigmas. With Vidur's guidance, they began the ritual of unlocking the cubes, their hands trembling with anticipation.
The first cube revealed a shimmering orb, accompanied by an ancient scroll adorned with cryptic runes. Saheli's eyes widened with wonder as she reached out to touch the orb. But just as she did, it seemed to dance away from her fingertips, prompting a chorus of laughter from her companions.
"Looks like the orb has a mind of its own!" Ankan quipped, his eyes twinkling with amusement.
Saheli pouted playfully, swatting at the elusive orb as if trying to catch a mischievous butterfly. "Come back here, you sneaky little thing!" she teased, her laughter echoing through the room.
To everyone's surprise, the orb suddenly swooped down and settled gently into Saheli's outstretched hand, glowing with a soft, ethereal light. Her eyes widened in astonishment as she held it aloft, a radiant smile spreading across her face.
"I guess it chose you after all!" Subham remarked, his voice tinged with a hint of envy.
Saheli beamed with delight, her heart dancing with joy at the unexpected turn of events. "I promise to take good care of it," she vowed, her eyes sparkling with determination.
With the first orb claimed, they turned their attention to the second cube, which contained a scroll surrounded by swirling elemental energies. Ankan's eyes lit up with excitement as he reached out to touch it, his fingers tingling with anticipation.
As they continued their journey of discovery, laughter and camaraderie filled the room, their spirits buoyed by the promise of adventure that lay ahead. Little did they know that their quest was far from over, and that the true test of their courage and friendship was yet to come.
