The Birthday Present

The king asked Noah to follow him as both of them walked to the king's chambers. Noah followed him obediently and both of them entered the room. The guards closed the doors leaving only two of them alone in the room and Noah looked at the king who had a small smile on his face.

"I know I was not an ideal father to you and I regret it to this day, Son. But I want to make it up to you with my present for your birthday" the king said and walked to the huge shelf in his room which had hundreds of books. He pulled out a red book and slowly the shelf split into two halves to something that looked like a dark room.

Seraph asked Noah to follow him as all the lamps lit up with a single snap of his fingers. The room was now visible to Noah which looked like a small passage to a dais that had a small rock on it. Seraph walked to the rock and Noah walked by his side. There were four small stones of the shape of coins embedded in the rock with different symbols carved on it.
