Open Writer’s Heart 1
This is the first time that I, in the name of writer, can talk to you, who are very kindness to visit my blog. Normally, you may think that I will mutter something to you that very bored. I just want to tell something about this story like behind the scene in the movies. I plan that every two or three chapters, I will post “Open writer’s heart” to talk to you.
Before I came to study at Assumption University, I was a writer in the journal club at Assumption College Sumutprakarn. Each school’s journal must have my article at least two articles. For the first article, it was about an important person in European history, as Marie Antoinette, Queen Mary of Scotland, etc. The second was about the problem in the society as the problem that Thai teenager using wrong Thai language. So, this is the first novel that I never write before.
Before I wrote this story, I had no idea to write anything because I felt very tired from the last semester. There was the first semester in ABAC, where was very far from my house in Samutprakarn province. I spend two hours to go to the university everyday while I spend only five minutes to go to my school when I was study at there. Sometimes, on a van or a bus during my journey to ABAC, I wrote the poem during that time and gave it to my friends to read. Most of them like my poem very much. When the classes were commencing in the second semester, I think that there was the time to write the story about my friends in my group. Although we were known only one semester, we were very intimate too. And when I asked them to write this story, they agree with me too. So, I started to write this story.
The first chapter of this story was written on Wednesday 1st November 2006, after the classes commence day. In that time, my friends look very excites to know that I write a novel about our group. They said I must publish this story to them when we graduate. The first chapter was finished on Wednesday 8th November 2006 in Thai version because every chapter I will write in Thai version and I will translate to English version after. I wrote the second chapter after I finish the first chapter about one week. This chapter was very hard because there was the beginning of the whole story. I spend about four weeks to write this chapter because I was a stand cheering in AU Games. The seniors of my faculty rehearse ours until evening everyday that I had not many time to write the story. So, the second chapter spends much time to write it and translate too. This chapter had a lot of description parts, the shape of Navaratanadara, the appearance of her, the scroll, etc. That you can see from the story. It was very hard to translate this chapter from Thai version to English version because in Thai version, I can describe every thing that I want to describe but for English version, I know only a few English idioms and conjunction. Sometimes, when you read this story, you maybe cannot understand what I describe to you of you feel it strange. I must apologize for my wrong at here.
From the first chapter, you may see the name of the academy is CABA, the Constitutional Angel’s Blessing Academy. My friends always ask me why I choose this name? The reason is CABA is the reverse word of ABAC, can you see? CABA and ABAC. After I chose the short name of the place that I use in this story, I find the meaning of each letter from my dictionary and I chose these words to be a place in my story. The scenes in this story, most of them I refer from ABAC that you can see the faculty of law’s tables was beside the library both ABAC and CABA too.
All of character in this story they are real person in our world except Navaratanadara whom I imagined from many of Thai poem. The main characters in this story are eleven persons. Bas, Benz, Bim, Champ, Kit, Kyo, Mod, Que, Safe, Ton (me) and another one will appear in chapter three, please waiting, I am writing that chapter now. (maybe after mid-term examination, it will finished) There are law students at ABAC like me. In the future, my friends and seniors whom I intimated with them or teachers will appear in this story too. Each character has their characteristic, but some of them may not clear in the first and the second chapters. It will clearer in the next chapters.
There are a lot of poem in this story. All of them I write it by myself did not copy from anywhere. Sure, I write it in Thai poem and translate it after that. I know a little about English poem that the last word of each line sounds same the last word of the next line. I feel very tired to translate them because some Thai words had their meaning very closed but for English, they use the same word. Some enigma use Thai vocabulary and meaning to give more detail. In English version, I change something to make readers easy to understand. I spend my time on journey to ABAC to write these poems in this story, some of these spend a few minute but some of these spend two or three days. You cam see a lot of poem in this story until this story will be end.
For the last, I want to say thank you for you who come to visit my blog. After you read my blog, please do not forget to comment my blog too. Your opinion will be my willpower to write this story. I hope you will enjoy with my story. Have a good New Year holidays
Happy new year, everyone!

Chapter 2 Nine Sacred Gems (Part 2)
Chapter 2 – Nine Sacred Gems (Part 2)
Everyone wake up again in the unknown place, but it was not the uninhabited city where Benz, Que and Ton came. They were standing on softy cloud that wide till out of sight like the sea of cotton wool. They were looking at point that the sea of cloud met blue sky.
“I’m waiting for you,” A softy smooth sound loud. When they turn back, they met a lady standing in front of them. She was Navaratanadara. Her smiles still sweet that can melt eight hearts of the boys who were standing there. “This meeting shows that you your opportunity which want me to help you. What is that?”
“Do you know we will come back?”
“I know, I know. The destiny leads you to me.”
“Destiny? Oh! Yes. Last time you said to me that my friends are the guardians like me. So, I want to prove that it is real or not.”
“I can’t keep the truth to secret, or not, it’s mean I refrain my obligation that keep the truth to you. Every words that I said to you is true, it can’t be wrong.”
“Well, is it true or false?” Kyo ask Que with his confusion in Navaratanadara’s speech. Que tilt his head, his eyes were focusing on her. “So, you will give the holy sign to them like me?” she didn’t answer, but she tilt her head instead. Safe ask her to give him the holy sign because everyone seem ready to be the guardians, except Mod and Bim who were look hesitate.
“Er…, dear friends. Are you sure to be the guardian?”
“Yes, yes. Are you sure?”
“We haven’t any chance, Mod, Bim. Our friends are getting problems. If we are not help them, who can help them? Although it will be hard or danger, we must help them because we are friends.” Mod and Bim surprise in Safe’s word because it seems that a person who spoke those speech was not Safe, it’s like the other said, but they understand in the reason of everyone. So, Mod and Bim agree with them.
“Because of your wish, I glad to do.” Navaratanadara touch on their forehead softy and spell the magic formula to them. The holy sign appear on their forehead and decrease quickly. “Now, you can occupy the sacred gems. If you get any problem, please open this book. It will lead you to me. I suggest you something that not only everything in this world had something specific matched to them, nine sacred gems stay in the places that match with them also. If you haven’t any errand, my obligation is ending now. May the highest heaven bless you, the guardians”
Their bodies soar up higher and higher until out of sight. They wake up again in the library that they were stay before. Benz was still holding the golden scroll. When everyone sees that scroll, they realize that their obligation is beginning.
“Well, what should we do with this scroll?” Bas ask while he was looking at the scroll.
“I think we should open it.” Kyo present his thinking.
“I…Is it good?”
“If you do not open it, how do we know what are there inside?” Although most of them are waver, from Champ’s speech made them want to know more till their anxiety and their hesitation are lose. They choose to unfurl that scroll.
Benz pulls red ribbon that tie on the golden scroll slowly until the scroll was slip off from the tie that binds for many centuries. Although the outer surface of that scroll was coat with gold which was hammered until it was very thin and the highest technology machine in the present time cannot do it, when they slip off the scroll, they found that is an old papyrus paper inside. The perimeter of the scroll was dark brown because of the time. But the most surprise thing is on the scroll, there is nothing on the scroll!
“Hey!” Safe exclaim “Why this scroll is blank?”
“No, no. May be it has something hiding in it!” but when Kit turn it back, there was nothing change.
Suddenly, the light was shining from the scroll. Kit keeps it on the table quickly. The sounds of musical instruments play joined with the voice that singing the song both men and women, like the songs that sing in the church when celebrated the holy ceremony to praise everyone who live in the highest heaven. Although that song was melodious more than the songs they were listen, the rhythm and tone of voice were conceal with sadness, missing and seeking the lovers deeply. They were silent standing, listen that mysterious sound like they were a victim of magic. Every eye was focus on the scroll without any movement like the time on the world was stop for a time. And that, the thing that made everyone who standing around the scroll shock was appear. The English alphabets were soaring out from the scroll to the air by the aid of magic and mixed up in the air, over head level. Those alphabets arrange their place to the words, sparkling to the third floor of the library, showing an enigma that Navaratanadara was remark to them. An enigma of the place of the first gem!
“Building at place where King’s purpose is,
To prevent everyone from danger and disease,
Once was dead, but now reborn again,
At the place of worship nears an elephant.”
That enigma show on for a time before the last paragraph was disintegrated to the golden dust until the other paragraphs were disintegrated too. The golden dust was scatter to the scroll like the golden rain was rained to the world, show the enigma on that scroll in the same time that the song which singing was end. The silence of library was come again.
Everyone just amaze with everything that they met and didn’t think that the nine sacred gems were wake up from sleeping for long time and knowing the appearance of the first scroll!

Chapter 2 Nine Sacred Gems
Chapter 2 – Nine Sacred Gems
Three boys regain their consciousness again and found that they are standing in a wild and uninhabited city.
“Where is this?” Benz asks.
“I don’t know,” Ton answer while he considers around him with his suspect, “it’s not familiar for me.”
“Look that!” Que sign on the square building where in front of him.
“That is…” While Benz is saying, the white light is flowing down from the dark sky. That light is bigger, bigger, and bigger. The boys are standing only. Their astonishment and their fright make them cannot move their legs. No sooner, the light appears in front of them and changes it to a white lady, her black eyes fitting with her prominent nose and her egg shape face. Her eyelashes set up perfectly included her curved eyebrows like an artist’s masterpiece drawing picture. Her red lips like a blossoming red rose. Her black hair like a clear midnight in winter which different from her white clothes that she is wearing. The golden crown, ornament with nine gems, is colorful shining. Her white wings on her back spread like the eagle’s wings when it fly on blue sky that make her look afraid. She smiles to the boys who standing in front of her. Her smile is the most gentle that everyone never see.
“Don’t afraid me, the guardians”
“Who are you?”
“I am Navaratanadara, the angel of nine sacred gems. I am a messenger who brings a message from the highest heaven to the guardians.”
“Guardians? What’s an item that guard for?”
“You are the guardians whom the highest heaven choose, and seven friends of you too, to finish an important mission that necessary to use your power to collect the nine sacred gems which vanished since more than 200 years ago. Because of this vanishing, this civilized kingdom was destroyed before the time it should and this kingdom was erased from the world history forever.”
“How can we know where are these sacred gems?”
“Each the sacred gem has their own golden scroll which record an enigma that refer to the place where the sacred gems stay. A person who can answer the enigma in the scroll is necessary to get the holy sign from me. When you can collect the first sacred gem, you must answer an enigma that record to the place where the next sacred gems stay, but the sacred gems cannot live over fifteen nights since its own golden scroll was opened. I will give the holy sign which is the important evidence that show you are the guardians and a golden scroll to you.”
She reaches her soft hand, touch softy on their heads and spell the magic formula to them. They feel their body light like a bird feather blow up slowly. The sign of the guardian appear on their foreheads and decrease quickly like water on the sand. After that, she gave a golden scroll to Benz.
“I want to warn you something. Before you can collect each sacred gem, you must pass the testing from that sacred gem. Nobody knows how they are wanted to do, except you. My obligation has just finish. May the Highest heaven bless you, good luck, the guardians.”
Her wings move slowly and quicker. Her body blow up to the sky until unsighted. Benz, Que, and Ton feel the land that they are standing is shaking like earthquake and break down quickly. Suddenly, they fall to the under ground. No sound left from anywhere except the sound of breaking land like the world is destroying.”
They regain their consciousness again on the table in the library. The red book falled besides Ton.
“Am I alive?”
“Are we just dreaming?”
“Not at all, Que. Look at this!” Benz hand in the golden scroll which it had red ribbon bundled to Que. The scroll lighten when it touch the light like the golden sun rise in the morning. The red ribbon makes everyone feel hot as fire. They are looking at that scroll and look at their friends face with their astonishment and think review to the situation that they just met.
“It’s mean…”
“Is it real story?”
“Of course, Ton. If it just a dreaming, how can it come?”
“What are you doing, darling. Why are you too late?” Bim’s voice loud from the ladder. Benz hides the scroll behind him by Ton and Que standing besides him.
“Er, Bim. This time you have English I class, aren’t you?” Que ask her for change the issue.
“Oh, yes, but the class has just finished. When I came to the faculty’s table, our friends told that you went to library for one hour. So, I come to find you.”
“Where are the others?”
“They are coming.”
“Hey! You are here!” Safe said and everyone walking after him.
“Why are you standing like this?” Kit asks
“Are you hiding anything?”
“No! No…nothing.”
“Don’t tell a lie, my friends.”
“I said nothing, Champ.”
“Que, don’t keep it secret. How bad temper am I!”
“OK. It’s up to you. If they want to keep it secret, don’t force them. Let’s back to our table. I regret the time that we anxious you.” Bas sarcastic his friend, turn back and walk down while Benz, Que and Ton turn their face together like they ask ‘Should we tell them?’
“Wait!” Benz shouts “I think I have something to tell to you.”
Bas stop his walking, turn his face to his friend. “What?”
“It was…” They start to tell their experience that they had met since they hear the mysterious sound in this library until they regain their consciousness again before their friends come up. On the first time, everyone seems unbelievable in their friend’s story but they know that their friends are not lying man. When they listen the whole story, Champ show his opinion that opening the book again to prove they tell the truth. When Ton open that book, the golden light come out from that book bundle their bodies and lost in that book again…
