Synopsis
Einstein made the whole world marvel when he was able to prove that there existed a relationship between matter and energy, he made the discovery of the law of relativity and stated that energy in mathematical relationship was equal to the product of mass multiplied by the speed of light squared ( E= MC^2). Thus, with quantum physics the possibilities indeed existed where energy could be converted to matter and matter reconverted back to energy, this make it possible for the existence of teleportation machines that can convert matter to energy and send or transmit this energy through portals or gateways into other dimensions then reconvert this energy transmitted back to the original form of matter initially transmitted. If this can be achieved in science and technology today, then the issue or complexities of space and time travel could be unraveled. This scientific leap could bridge the gap between space and time travel across galaxies in the universe with reference to the time frame being shrink to non-existence. A possibility... Mr. Tolen had lost his job for sometime as a family man with a wife and four kids; Charley, Pete, Jenny and Mary from the city of Zinatano. Mary was just a toddler when Mr. Tolen had just discovered about the mysteries in land of gold. This happened at a meeting at a beer tavern he had scheduled to meet a close friend Mr. Pantane regarding a new job at the new gas factory. A family discussion led to the three elder kids hearing more about the land of gold; even though Charley had a friend in school who once told him about this mysterious place. It became pertinent for three elder kids of the Tolen’s family to plan out a strategy to discover this land on their own. Several times this plan could not be successfully accomplished until later years in their early teens. They eventually discovered the land of gold but on entering into the land they became trapped and solving the puzzle to find a way out was the order of the day. They had lost Charley to the cold hands of death not to long after discovering the land. Pete and Jenny were left to face the almost on ending challenges that confronted them in the land. They had come to realize that all statues found in the land came to life when touched; some were deadly enemies while others were friends who would offer their help at the request of the Pete and Jenny. Every attempt to escape outside the land led them deeper into the land; this made it almost an impossible task finding an escape route. While the three Tolen’s had gone missing for some time, Mr. Tolen had engaged the service of the city police of Zinatono where he had worked as a police officer on a search for his missing three kids. This herculean task eventually took him into the neighboring city of Kalkulta, it was on one of this trips while returning his vehicle had a ghastly accident and led to his death. Their search led them to discovering that the intricacies about the land and secretes that would serve as clues for their escape. The discovery of short cut paths using teleportation machines and colored arrows that led to several chambers, stock with gold and deadly statues which came alive when touched and attacked its victims eventually killing them.

Chapter 1 - THE LAND OF GOLD

PROLOGUE

Pete was now convinced in his heart that there must be a possibility of getting out of the land of gold. Indeed, if a few so called wealthy and powerful men in the world, had access to the land because of their affiliation with the land gods; it must mean that there was a safe portal one could reach either in the red, blue, black, green or yellow arrow marking that would aid in escaping to the outside walls of the land of gold. 

They always used this marking when leaving one passage way or corridor through the entrance into a new chamber, the arrow markings would always indicate the path they were entering next in the land of gold. It was imperative for him to keep his vision alive; that which concerns his ability to make the escape outside of the land of gold. 

Pete believed now that they had gone through the black arrow, red arrow markings and these had led them so far to meet the secret revealer. So then there was still possibility of positivity in his conceived ideas about escaping from the land of gold if he would try, blue, green or yellow arrow indicators at the entrance with his sister Jenny. 

All that was in the plans Pete was arranging to execute by morning after they would have just woken up from their sleep as usual in the land of gold. Pete had left Jenny still on the bed as she had been feeling very sick the day before, and Pete went into the opposite room in the golden chamber to say good morning to the secrete revealer and to tell him about Jenny's poor health conditions and how she had been sick often since she entered the land of gold with him.

"Excuse Sir, good morning to you, please what name do I call you?" Pete asked the secret revealer.

"My name is Pauli. Henceforth call me Uncle Pauli," the secrete revealer replied Pete.

"That name reminds me of my friend Pauline, back in school at Zinatano city; she always told me stories about the land of gold; and then she would always insist I do not reveal these things she told me to anyone. And I will promise never to reveal the secrets to anyone at all. I always believed I will enter into the land of gold one day; many times we sat at the garden close to the principal's office, as she told me stories her grand mom had told her about the land of gold. I could imagine myself inside this place and how I would gather all the gold I needed and return back to Zinatano and marry Pauline my dear friend. I miss her so much and I wonder how much she must have grown and she would have certainly changed Pete," commented.

"How can I help you today Pete?" Uncle Pauli asked, it's a good day for us to explore some new chambers with hidden treasurers and secret new places in the land of gold. What do you say my good friend Pete? I could take you guys through a blue arrow entrance that leads into chambers with special pods that will take us to several path ways and corridors and into new golden chambers which are filled with unbelievable treasures gathered in golden chests, boxes and carts of jewels.

"Are you sure about that Uncle Pauli?" Pete responded back. "But I have to tell you Uncle Pauli, Jenny my sister is very sick today. Can you get her some medicine to help her recover faster in the land of gold and keep her better before we go on our new adventure today?" Pete asked Uncle Pauli.

"Yes I can take you to the garden where the gods grow different herbs for the treatment of different diseases; it's very close to the valley of the twin waterfalls. Come on lets go quickly. I will take you through a short cut that should take us right straight to the garden of herbs for healing, there we would get all sorts of herbs for healing all sickness."
