The Story Starts in ancient greek the timeframe was 2200 Bc. City was Thíva. Let me describe Thiva, Thiva was one of the oldest cities in Greece where monarchy ruled. King and queen were living in their castle with their daughter named Princess Amelia. Amelia was very pretty in both face and heart. she was raised by her father and mother who ruled Thiva. People of Thiva use to make their living by farming and making iron swords which were sold to the tourist who visited there.

Many festivals were celebrated in Thiva which showed prosperity and brotherhood among the people of Thiva. One same festival king and queen with their daughter decided to roam the city to see their people. Amelia was very fond of antique earrings when she was roaming with her father and mother she saw a shop of earrings which were selling on the roadside of the city. She requested her father to stop there. Father and mother both said they can't stop suddenly anywhere. After she insist the king ordered a few soldiers to stay with her and they decided to proceed with visiting the city. Two soldiers were with Amelia. She was very happy trying earrings.

For a moment let me describe the beauty of Amelia. She looked like a princess from another planet. Her eyes were like stars that sparkled. Her hair was long and beautiful just like the grass of Celestial Planet. Her lips were like rose petals and when she moved the wind stopped the sun hid. Mountains bowed to make her feel special. Rivers and sea waved high to see her beauty.

Amelia was seeing her earrings. Two of the king's enemies found this an opportunity to kidnap her and ask for gold coins. They immediately attacked the soldiers and took Amelia with them on a horse. Thiva was surrounded by desert. so they thought if they would leave the boundaries of the city soon no one will be able to find them. This news spread like a fire that the princess has been kidnapped. King asked a bunch of troops to look for her and bring those culprits immediately.

The whole city was in pain and all of them were searching for Amelia.

Seppo was a sword maker he was visiting back to Thiva from Athence after selling his hand-made swords at a sword expo. In the desert, he saw two people kidnapping a girl and going fast outside the city. Amelia was shouting HELP, HELP, HELP! Seppo immediately removed his sword and threw it at one of the culprits. He fell and the horse stooped. He immediately threw the sword at another person. Both were on the ground. Seppo tied them both and took them with Amelia to the king.

King was surprised and thankful to Seppo immediately he asked his soldiers to take the culprits to the prison. King offered a bunch of Gold coins to Seppo he denied it and decided to leave. Amelia was impressed by his gesture.

Time passed Amelia started to fall in love with seppo and they both started to meet without anyone knowing. They both were crazy for each other. Seppo used to take Amelia to the stars and taught her about the universe, stars, galaxies, cosmos etc. Amelia was very nice to him and always listened to him when he use to talk about the galaxies, planets and moon.

One fine day the king came to know about all this he immediately ordered soldiers to bring him back or kill him wherever they found him. Amelia came to know about this and was very worried for her love seppo. She requested her father to leave him she loves him but King said it is not even possible after 100 lives.

Seppo came to know that the whole troops of the army is looking for him dead or alive. He decided to leave the city as soon as possible. Days passed Amelia did not know where was seppo as well as seppo did not know how was she. Seppo was living in the middle of the desert alone and no one knew he used to look at the stars and asked the moon to protect her love. Same Amelia from the balcony of the castle who used to watch the stars and used to remember the talks which they both used to do in the moonlight.

Seppo knew that Amelia wouldn't be eating and taking care of herself because no one knew where he is. He decided to surrender himself in front of the king. King knew if he would live seppo alive Amelia would never marry anyone else so unwantedly he ordered to punish him till death.

Amelia begged and cried in front of his father asking him to liv him alive. He did not listen to her and seppo was hanged to death. Amelia was broken into pieces and her whole life was shattered in front of her eyes. She left eating left talking with anyone and only used to watch the moon and stars and remember seppo. She was very broken and it started to affect her health very badly. As time passed she became weaker and weaker.

She used to sit on her balcony watched the moon and stars and cry in front of the sky to return her seppo but that was not possible because he was dead already. Amelia's health got very bad one day King was worried about her daughter's health he called the best body healers from his town and his neighbourhood but she was not responding and when the night grew old and the stars were at their peak Amelia took her last breath.

King realised his mistake at the cost of her daughter's life.

Altough it is written by me but I do believe that To this date, it is believed that once a year at the time of mid-year, all the stars aligned in the sky and make a bridge to connect the souls of Amelia and Seppo.
