The mysterious Shoreditch Park once witnessed a pleasing scene. A lovely bond was established between our Veysel Baba and the cutest little baby foxes met in a weekend in this mysterious park. As a taleteller grandpa, our Veysel Baba told his first tale to the little baby foxes in the middle of Shoreditch Park by the fever of ambient.

Following this epic night, there was a different period for Veysel Baba. The pleasing scenes never occurred in his life filled with many surprises. Except of a few years spent in his little mountain village, the remaining years were passed with sorrow and pain. Those tearful years were like an era of darkness. In this dark age with tortures, he remembers just a few enjoyable incidents. It seems that an amazing mood called happiness was forbidden.

However, this exhausted man dreamed of good things during his youth. Several concepts such as peace, freedom, fraternity, equality and socialism were very good targets for him. Following a so called valuable sturggle, a kingdom of heaven will be founded for oppressed and contempted ones working with great efforts. All the oppressed and contempted people with stolen efforts will live peacefully forever.

But it didn’t go well. All those good emotions, requests or thoughts were unable to go beyond a dream. The sovereign powers, capitalist barons and rich men were the winners after all struggles and efforts. As they were leading a life of pleasure in their magnificent palaces, mansions or castles, our hero of dreams Veysel Baba said goodbye to his beautiful dreams as an exhausted warrior lost a battle in dark cells and torture chambers.

When the war weary man suddenly found himself in a chain of betrayal, he decided to give up the dirty and sick game called politics. He was going to remain as a man tired of politics. Further pains, lonelinesses, betrayals or desolations were waiting on this long and narrow path. Life will make a surprise in every corner in his remaining days or give him some unknown pains. But he already took the road. He may find eternal peace at the end of this long and narrow path. And he did.

In order to find happiness and eternal peace, he should learn the way of becoming a patient person.

He also needs to strengthen his morality in all aspects. In this painful road, the idea targeting fame and wealth may direct a person towards mistakes or adverse damages in a person’s character. A person should know to be content with what he or she has in order to prevent from the stated damages. Because spending an entire life only for the purpose of becoming rich, chasing more wealth or purchasing a property is one of the delusions for a person.

There are also other values to be followed in this beautiful world we survive such as love, compassion, friendship, fraternity, universality, sharing, charity, emotional harmony, action unity, avoidance of mistakes, redemption, crime, self-criticism, strong personality, honorable, merciful and conscience life, standing against injustice and equality, standing for faith and patience with moral values, promoting and developing goodness, caring people and nature, standing against animal together with environmentalmassacres, wars, starvations, poverty, robbery, theft, dirty games and scenarios, avoidance of racial, faith or color discrimination, becoming a person with a good perspective by experiencing all good moments from the heart, becoming a person considering love and to be loved as a greatest asset, the children running and playing around the park, colorful rainbow, the rain dropping on earth, the snow flakes, a kid flying a kite, a blooming flower, a floating butterfly, a falling yellow leaf, an old man walking on the street, an old lady trying to feed the birds, a mother breast feeding her kid, a father struggling to earn a living, a grandfather telling stories to the grandchildren, a person like Michelangelo trying to produce something even at death’s door as well as a person rescued by a talking fox from the edge of death like our exhausted Veysel Baba and the taleteller grandpa establishing a friendship based on love.

The warmhearted Veysel Baba has decided to be a taleteller grandpa telling various tales to all the kids in this world and the cute baby foxes. He started to search and read tale books excitedly in order to tell best tales to his beloved fox friends and cute baby foxes in next weekend. As the taleteller grandpa, the man wanted to establish a solid communication based on compassion with the cutest baby foxes.

By this way, the schedule requested by the great king Lord Parapanu would have been succeeded.

As a taleteller grandpa, the man didn’t want to fail by the beginning with such a great responsibility. He had every means recently and his life experience made him an improved person. He would read thousands of tales or stories from his books or via online and memorize the best ones. In further days, he would achieve to be a great taleteller. Because the tales or stories he would tell to the cutest baby foxes in Shoreditch Park as a taleteller grandpa shall reach all fox friends living in other areas of the world through the Wind Stone. In other words, millions of foxes shall simultaneously hear our taleteller grandpa’s tales in the mysterious Shoreditch Park. This meaningful duty is the most valuable gift for our exhausted Veysel Baba.

Veysel Baba focused on the story books during his first days of teaching. He was bringing fresh and organic foods and milk from his farm house outside London in order to feed the newborn babies. First days required certain efforts and those days were challenging for our kind Veysel Baba. On the other hand, it was a great pleasure to feed tens of baby foxes and play with them as well as to tolerate their naughty behaviors, memorize their names, tell instructive lectures to them, inform them on life and tell various tales by meeting with them every night.

What would be more meaningful and pleasing for our helpful Veysel Baba? All the best moments, love, friendship, accompany and extraordinary cases that he searched throughout his life have been experienced in a pure manner in the mysterious Shoreditch Park. It seemed several mystical powers made our exhausted Veysel Baba very happy and gave him a new life by assigning a pure and meaningful duty.

The cold days have passed for the beautiful Shoreditch Park. By spring, the mysterious Shoreditch Park has been revived and colored. Everyone together with our naughty fox friends found peace when the sun appeared slightly. By such a beautiful and attractive ambient, this mysterious park was filled with the kids playing around and their parents. Two different life styles were formed in this mysterious Shoreditch Park. The beautiful Shoreditch Park was opening its doors to the people during daylight whereas it was opening the doors to our warmhearted Veysel Baba and his beloved fox friends.

It seemed that everything has become better and the lectures determined previously in favor of both sides have continued without any delay.

Our Veysel Baba was trying his best to follow the tight schedule of lectures given in this mysterious park every night. The man was giving lectures to his beloved fox friends even in an exhausted or sleepless mood. At the same time, he was telling the most beautiful tales to the baby foxes as a teacher and a taleteller grandpa. Since our Veysel Baba was aware of his surrounding, he was telling several tales jointly as an award to the cute baby foxes following the lectures given every night.

As everything was going normally in this beautiful Shoreditch Park, the works in the farm house located outside London have continued at full speed. The chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese and rabbits raised and fed in an organic ambient in this farm house have grown up enough to be slaughtered. Veysel Baba was not satisfied with this condition and he purchased a few cows for his farm house. By means of the milk received from those nice cows, our cute baby foxes gained strength. This is true love. This is true friendship. Our kind Veysel Baba was giving various lectures to his fox brothers. On the other hand, he was telling some stories to the cute baby foxes and feeding them properly.

As the days passed in this beautiful Shoreditch Park, the farewell time has come. Because the workers in the farm house outside London informed Veysel Baba that the preparations and works in this farm house could be completed within three months. Realized the farewell time is close, Veysel Baba undertook a schedule to last for a hundred and one days. He explained this to his beloved fox friends and asked for help.

Veysel Baba named the schedule as The Hundred One Night Stories in order to ensure this a hundred and one day long intense schedule to be more successful. The training schedule with several tales to be told in every night has become clear for listening. Following a hundred and one days long schedule is completed, all foxes will move to the farm house outside London whereas only our Veysel Baba and his beloved friend Silent Foot will remain unless a negative incident occurs or our talking fox Silent Foot becomes mortal one due to dismissal from the duty of protecting the Holy Ark.

By taking all possibilities into account, Veysel Baba decided to write down his experiences in the mysterious Shoreditch Park. He founded a web site on his name in order to provide the kids from all around the world with the stories collected under the title of Shoreditch Park Stories. By this way, the entire world would be informed on our Veysel Baba, the talking fox Silent Foot, the warmhearthed Lord Parapanu, the compassionate Princess Batavine, the mysterious Shoreditch Park, the fox friends residing in this park, the cutest baby foxes, the taleteller grandpa telling tales to baby foxes, Veysel Baba’s farm, the holy place of St. John’s Hoxton Church, the Holy Ark, the trusted money,

the so called mafia members converted to crows, the crows shouting “where is money” continuously, the residents of mysterious Shoreditch Park, Kinder House, the lonely man residing this place turned to a museum or art house, the Wind Haired Girl, the bombing of July 7th, the Windy Valley, the swinger party, the 62nd area, the Underground Kingdom built hundreds of meters under the soil, the painful life and adorable little world of Veysel Baba and as his eternal dreams. They will be also informed on the cute but trouble maker squirrel stealing nuts, chocolates and candies on the table from Veysel Baba’s house whereas they will also realize how this unexpected guest named as Amigo, Pancho and Troubler by Veysel Baba revived and excited the taleteller grandpa’s life by means of this Shoreditch Park Stories.

Finally, I invite our Veysel Baba to this chapter in order to ensure all the kids in this world to read the tales and stories told by Veysel Baba as the taleteller grandpa to the cutest baby foxes in the center of mysterious Shoreditch Park. I fade from the scene with the hope that you, as the kids of this world, would read and adopt those stories written by our taleteller grandpa and learn lessons from these stories. I allow you to be alone with the beautiful tales called Hundred and One Night Stories, as the warmhearted taleteller grandpa have told previously to the cute baby foxes in Shoreditch Park. Goodbye for now. Hope to see you in next week and wish you all the best with greetings from London. Your taleteller grandpa Veysel Baba.

Returned home in a pleased mood following that week’s meeting, Veysel Baba purchased and started to read several books on tales while he was trying to write new subjects. Because he should have told the best tales and stories to those cute babies. He should be prepared when the cute babies want him to tell a tale.

Veysel Baba focused on his works while he was bringing something to eat at every night with his trolley. Because there were pregnant foxes required to be fed in this period. True friendship and coopeartion should appear in such periods. This was true love and unity. Love can’t be obtained easily. It is necessary to show efforts and stand against pains on the road to a true friendship. In this painful and tearful road , every favor would return one day since the doors of hearts opening to love and friendship contain a pleasure. 

Veysel Baba already thought about the names of cute fox babies. He will become a grandfather with these babies. By means of the beautiful tales he will write for the babies, he will be their taleteller grandpa. This thought has made him to go back his childhood and he recalled his beautiful days spent in a small mountain village. He also recalled his father’s stories told during hot summer nights on the clay roof of their home such as One Thousand Nights, Basilisk, Seven Sleepers, Shahmaran and The Lion of Allah Hz. Ali’s war epics. Listening to the tales and stories under shining stars was really exciting.

As a taleteller grandpa, Veysel Baba decided to ensure new babies to experience the same as he did during his childhood. Because this exhausted man was lonely and he never had a child due to his repent against marriage for personal reasons. Thus, the stories and tales impressed him during childhood were left as an orphan by waiting to be told one day. Probably, the stated tales and stories would become more meaningful by being told to the cute babies.

Promoted to the rank of taleteller, the warmhearted Veysel Baba was waiting for the good news to be received from his fox friends. Following several weeks, the good news expected impatiently has started to come one by one. Veysel Baba became very happy to hear that our queen of fertility Silent Foot gave birth to five babies including three female ones.

How he shouldn’t be happy? His beloved friend Silent Foot gave the best gift by giving birth to five babies. Fifty three foxes were attending to the meetings and lectures organized in Shoreditch Park. Twenty four of them were female foxes expecting babies. If the female foxes give birth to three or five babies in average, almost a hundred baby foxes would come to this world. In other words, the number of foxes participating in the meetings held in famous Shoreditch Park will be increased by three times.

The beautiful Shoreditch Park will bloom by newborn baby foxes whereas the meetings in famous Shoreditch Park will be more enjoyable and meaningful. Yet, the exhausted and lonely man wished to have children and then grandchildren as well as to see them playing around his home. Even though he promised to avoid getting angry if they break his antique pieces. He really desired to have a blonde girl with blue eyes asking questions continuously. He wanted to tell stories to this little girl and give certain information on this world and the universe. The situation became worse over the course of time. It has become a will to embrace every girl he meets on the street and give the most beautiful presents for this lonely man. But it doesn’t work that way. Sometimes the social norms and sometimes the reaction from the girls’ parents become an obstacle for him. For this reason, he never embraced a little girl. Realized this lonely man’s situation, the mystrical powers gave him eternal happiness by meeting him with the talking fox in order to cease his loneliness.

The exhausted man once intended to become a grandpa has had many grandchildren. As he was father of all foxes residing in Shoreditch Park, he would also be considered as the grandpa of baby foxes. The life that disappointed him once upon a time has given the most beautiful gift in his fiftieth birthday by raising him to a grandpa status. From now on, he will tell his entire knowledge to the beutiful baby foxes and try to answer their questions. He will also give his love by telling the most entertaining tales.

Walked to Shoreditch Park under the influence of these thoughts, our Veysel Baba’s first meeting with his beloved friend Silent Foot after the birth was really emotional and exciting. Two good friends haven’t met for a long time. Silent Foot was happy and glad to have five babies. She was just a queen of fertiltiy and she gave birth to hundreds of foxes throughout her life of almost two hundred years. Realized the happy mood of Silent Foot, Veysel Baba congratulated his friend and told his wish of giving names to baby foxes. Silent Foot was very pleased by receiving greetings from Veysel Baba while she told Veysel Baba to avoid being impatient in giving names. Because the baby foxes were just a few days old. Their eyes were still close.

Besides, she needs to take advise and permission from the great king Lord Parapanu in giving names to the baby foxes. Because the Great Council would object to disclosing certain secrets on the Holy Ark and the order of immortality would be given to one of the newborn foxes. It was necessary to act carefully by considering this possibility.

Veysel Baba and his beloved friend Silent Foot was exchanging ideas about the names to be given to the baby foxes whereas other fox friends were arriving to the meeting point. Veysel Baba realized the foxes and wore the mask resembling a fox head in order to communicate with his fox friends. Then, he congratulated all female foxes gave birth. The father foxes couldn’t go to the meeting as they stayed home to care newborn babies. As a rule, the male foxes were obliged to help mother in taking care of babies. Looking after the babies with closed eyes were really challenging. This duty shouldn’t be assigned only to the mother. A mother fox needs to be fed properly in order to breast-feed her babies. A mother fox also needs to be accompanied by another fox to check the babies at home. In those days after births, the father foxes were trying to perform this duty.

According to the words of his beloved fox friends, eighty six new members have joined the family. Veysel Baba made a calculation by including himself and he was pleased by reaching a great family consisting of a hundred and forty members. It should be literally great to experience the best moments and give lectures to all these foxes. Especially, it should be great to give answers to the interesting questions of baby foxes and tell them new tales as a taleteller grandpa. This must be true love. This must be pure happiness.

Veysel Baba left the meeting with the dream of babies calling him as the taleteller grandpa. In the next day, he contacted with the farm house outside London and brought organic chicken, fresh milk and turkey meat to London. He placed the food and milk in clay cups located in various areas of Shoreditch Park. By this way, the father foxes were also fed properly as they spent most of their time at home together with female foxes. For Veysel Baba believing to be involved in a challenging phase, these events should have a meaning. True friendship and coopeartion should be shown in such times. The real solidarity appears in challenging times. As the old people say, patience is pure with a tasty fruit. God tests a person with patience. For an impatient one, this world seems like a dungeon or a hell.

For the warmhearted Veysel Baba trying to show patience and solidarity to the best of his ability, the painful days were in the past. The newborn babies opened their eyes and started to play around by leaving home. It was middle of April as our queen of fertility Silent Foot took her cute four-week old babies to Shoreditch Park in order to meet them with her beloved friend Veysel Baba.

This scene was worth-seeing. While the entire city was in a deep sleep, the walks of our queen of fertility Silent Foot and her cute babies at the very center of mysterious Shoreditch Park was just like a tale. Watched this amazing scene together with his other fox friends, Veysel Baba’s eyes were filled with tears of happiness.

The queen of fertility Silent Foot introduced her cute babies to everyone when she arrived to the meeting area. Silent Foot’s newborn babies warmed to their taleteller grandpa immediately. Silent Foot brought two princes and three princesses even at this old age and performed another holy duty. Her devotion and dedication on behalf of other female foxes were above everything and she deserved all praises. The ones went to Shoreditch Park at that night has embraced the queen of fertility Silent Foot’s cute babies.

That night with beautiful moments had a particular importance for our prince of loneliness Veysel Baba since he wanted to give names to Silent Foot’s cutest babies. Silent Foot received permission from the great king Lord Parapanu and assigned this meaningful duty to her beloved friend Veysel Baba. Veysel Baba gave the names that he decided previously one by one to the newborn baby foxes. The princes were named as Lolan and Nernak respectively whereas the beautiful princesses were named as Goze, Hengure and Savile. He also explained that he was inspired from the little mountain village in giving those names to the babies. Although he failed to give a name to anyone since he never had kids, our Veysel Baba has given names to five baby foxes. In a sense, he is their grandfather. Veysel Baba thanked to his beloved friend Silent Foot for making him to experience such an honor.

The mysterious Shoreditch Park revived with the great ambient at that night. Upon Veysel Baba’s request, the remaining baby foxes were brought to this mysterious park. Realized that tens of cute baby foxes have surrounded him with the expectation to hear some stories, our Veysel Baba wore the magical mask resembling a fox head and given by Lord Parapanu. He started to tell his first tale to the cutest baby foxes.

A City Fallen in Love with the Rain:

Once upon a time, there was a place fallen in love with the rain. Back then, nobody was living in this green place but the deers, foxes, rabbits, squirrels, hedgehogs, mice, ducks, geese and other birds. This place with plenty of rain was so beautiful and fabulous that the rain-bearing clouds were spilling due to the pleasure they get.

Such an effective exchange rasied an eternal love between the soil and the rain-bearing clouds. This eternal love also brought an indispensable passion. 

The fabulous soil and the rain-bearing clouds stayed together. As the outcome of their love, the rain mix with the soil in a short while and provide a new life.

The warm relationship between the soil and the rain-bearing clouds has continued for thousand of years. After a while, a tribe arrived to those fabulous lands from distant lands. This tribe from distant lands founded a great city on a heavenly place. By their arrival, peace has left those beautiful lands. All the animals left thisi place as they realized the noisy contstruction of gigantic buildings.

The rain-bearing clouds also realized this situation whereas the green fields made a secret agreement. According to this agreement, they decided to exporse the military tribe from distant lands to thirst in order to dismiss them from these lands. Therefore, as the rain-bearing clouds float over the beloved lands, they will pass through without any rain and provide plenty of starvation and thirst to the tribe below.

This secret agreement bettween the beautiful lands and the rain-bearing clouds have continued for many years in this way. The green and fertile fields dried due to the lack of water and turned to a desert in a few years. The place used to get plenty of rain on daily basis has failed to get even a little bit. The foreign soldiers resided this area from distant lands have never understand this situation. They suffered starvation and thirst. The gigantic buildings they built have been incomplete. Against this undesirable situation, the foreign tribe was in desparate status and they returned to their homeland by accepting the defeat.

As this foreign tribe left the area, the rain-bearing clouds and the beautiful lands have met again. The rain-bearing clouds dismissed the foreign soldiers with a great patience and the beloved lands have become so happy. Becoming patient for many years, the rain-bearing clouds have started to rain over the beloved lands. Those lands turned to a desert in a short while have been painted with green again. Life bloomed all around as well ascolorful flowers and butterflies. In such a beautiful scene, the animals returned to the heavenly lands they have abandoned previously. This is the story of city fallen in love with the rain and the rain-bearing clouds. Actually, this is the place mentioned in the story. By telling such a meaningful story to my beloved fox friends, I wanted to inform you on love, solidarity, patience and the city fallen in love with rain. Goodbye until we meet in better stories and tales in next week. As your taleteller grandpa, I am always here with you. With greetings and love.

21/11/2016 Veysel  Baba - Kinder House, London

Veysel Baba was relaxed to return home by sharing a secret that he kept for many years with his beloved fox friends. If he shared his secret related to the treasure with any person, then the results would be far more different. Because money means everything for a materialist person and a community defeated by ambitions. The people formed a cash based society has simply idolized money. And the money gained a divine identity has declared its reaign whereas it has also become the biggest power to be worshipped. Money is the most chased and wanted thing in modern day as well as to be the leading, managing and enslaving element of our lives. It is the most dreamed and loved one although it is the best cause for fights, disagreements, wars, disasters, troubles, pains, tears, tragedies, mistakes, sins and slides. It is also a cause making us to make mistakes, lose our characters, become ordinary ones, think less, become like commodities or parasites. It is also the first reason for global warming, climate changes, animal massacres, universal pollution, dark future, slavery future, pessimism and disappointment by playing with our dreams and lives.

In this point, we placed money at the very center of our lives. As a sovereign, it directs our lives in every aspect. It seems that people never reserve any time to love within such a society. The rich men trying to establish a competitive social structure together with the capitalist system and the global powers tells us: “Don’t worry, we will worry on behalf of you. Never fall in love, we will fall in love on behalf of you. Don’t chase love, we will tell you what you should follow. Just work, produce and obey what you have told. Because you are a machine now and you should always remember this.”

A social structure appreciating love is on one side and a social structure excluding love is on the other side. There is a social structure promoting morality while another social structure promotes materialism. A social structure caring love whereas other structure focuses just on production. A social structure struggles to make this world better while a mechanized social structure tries to drag the world to a disaster

All those problems confront as an output of the capitalist system making us a monster with its voracious nature. How long shall we keep watching the greedy capitalist system that turned the humanity to commodites by preventing us from thinking? Isn’t it time to draw a line for this monster enslaving our future and dragging the entire humanity to a disaster? Of course, it is. But we need a soldier of love to guide us and teach us love, compassion, cooperation and common ground. Let’s see what the sultan of hearts Mawlana Jalaluddin-i Rumi tells:

‘’Come , come, whoever you are.

Wanderer , worshipper, lover of leaving.

It doesn’t matter,

Ours is not a caravan of despair.

Come, even if you have broken your oath for hundred or thousand times,

Come, yet again, come. Come.’’

‘’Who cares the juice of others!

Here is my modest cup of drink,

I don’t have any property, nor a mouth,

I still work to provide you some.

I work to provide you home,

I am your tree.

But I would never sell freedom for slavery.

‘’I promise I won’t think about the juice of others as long as I have my cup. Even though food comes to me for death, I never sell freedom for slavery!’’

‘’Be like the running water for generosity.

Be like the sun for grace and mercy.

Be like the night to cover others’ faults.

Be like death for rage and anger.

Be like the earth for modesty.

Be like the sea for tolerance.

Appear as you are or be as you appear.’’

Shared a secret with his fox friends at that day in the mysterious Shoreditch Park, Veysel Baba has thought more as he returned home. If this exhausted world we struggle to survive shall have a bright future, then he needs to contribute to this hopeful future by writing. He noticed the pen with endless ink given by Princess Batavine in the second hand market. Princess Batavine should have given this pen for a good purpose. The man started to understand and analyze everything in detail. Both the incidents in the mysterious Shoreditch Park and the money together with the talking fox Harsiyeh, Princess Batavine, Lord Parapanu, fox friends and the so called mafia members transformed to crows should have been brought for a certain purpose.

Otherwise, those interesting and unreasonable events should not have happened successively. It seemed that Princess Batavine intended to put his recent experiences on paper by giving a pen. By this way, he would have performed his duty assigned by mystical powers by following certain rules. In such a meaningful work, he shall place the mysterious Shoreditch Park, the talking fox Harsiyeh and the Holy Ark at the very center. However, in this point, there were some mysteries regarding the Holy Ark. At that moment, our Veysel Baba realized it’s Silent Foot’s turn to reveal the secrets. He walked to Shoreditch Park by thinking that: ‘’Now, it’s time for Silent Foot to disclose certain secrets. I will ask what she knows about the Holy Ark in our next meeting. Then, we will be even in terms of disclosing secrets.’’

Veysel Baba was thinking about those events and making some plans. On the other hand, Silent Foot knew well that it’s her turn to reveal some secrets. Accordingly, she was thinking on a secret to be disclosed in the next weekend as she had many mysteries. And the most important one is related to the Holy Ark. Lord Parapanu warned her to keep the secrets regarding the Holy Ark. If she tells any of those secrets to a person, then the order of immortality shall be taken back and given to another fox. But it didn’t matter since she was so tired in last two hundred years with the aim to taste death just like everyone else. Although she shared unknown details on the Holy Ark with Veysel Baba few weeks ago, it was found insignificant by the Great Council of Foxes. However, she wanted to go beyond the borders determined by the Great Council.

Clarified those thoughts in her mind, Silent Foot walked to the mysterious Shoreditch Park at a midnight in order to reveal the most important secrets on the Holy Ark. All of her fox friends were there. Her beloved friend Veysel Baba was just arrived to the meeting place. All foxes were curious about the words of their kind teacher Veysel Baba. He gave several information to his fox friends on global warming, climate change, environmental pollution and animal extinction. Then, he brought organic chicken. At that night, there were fifty two foxes in this mysterious park and all of them loved Veysel Baba very much. They found true love, compassion and friendship in this good man. Nobody embraced them like Veysel Baba.

The lectures were completed and the dinner was eaten. By this opportunity, Veysel Baba asked his beloved friend Silent Foot to disclose a secret. Our Silent Foot started to tell more about her decision and told:

‘’Most of my fox friends here doesn’t know that I am actually an immortal fox. They still don’t realize that I am almost two hundred years.

Furthermore, my fox brothers don’t know that I am assigned to protect a holy ark. Tonight, I would like to share my entire knowledge on this Holy Ark with you. They warned me to avoid telling those secrets to anyone. But I am really tired now. I started to search for the thing called death. By this way, I would meet with my beloved mother.

Dear Veysel Baba and my fox friends! There are important events regarding the Holy Ark. Our kind friend Veysel Baba has found and brought several pieces stolen from this Holy Ark many years ago. There were five magical stones together with a key among the stolen pieces found by Veysel Baba in the second hand market. As I don’t have permission to open the Holy Ark, I don’t know exactly what’s in it. Even if I want to open the Holy Ark, the walls of St John’s Hoxton Church would not allow me. Because the Holy Ark is protected by the thick walls of this church.

Nevertheless, a Holy Grail is said to be placed in the Holy Ark together with a magical wand, doomsday sword, speech of eternity, potion of immortality, holy book, copper plate taken from Prophet Noah’s ship, the commandment consisting of thirty three lines regarding the doomsday and a cup that Jesus Christ drinks water. These are all I know on the relics said to be inside the Holy Ark.’’

Listened her friend Silent Foot’s words carefully, Veysel Baba recalled the magical stones given by Princess Batavine in the second hand market and asked:

‘’First, I thank you for your explanations on the Holy Ark. But there is a point that I would like to be clarified. As you know very well, I brought you five stones. If the Holy Ark is sealed, then what does those stones belong to?’’

‘’My dearest friend. Those stones actually decorate the surface of the Holy Ark.‘’

‘’You mean there are stones outside the Holy Ark?’’

‘’Yes, too many.’’

‘’So, tell us about the Holy Ark as well as its surface, shape and size.’’

‘’Dear Veysel Baba and my beloved fox friends. Here is my knowledge on the Holy Ark’s surface. As I mentioned before, I could see only the front and rear sides of the Holy Ark since it was placed in the foundation of St John’s Hoxton Church. It is said that the Holy Ark was made of a holy tree in heaven. The ark’s length is 66 centimeters and the height is 33 centimeters. There are various decorations on the front and rear sides of the Holy Ark. Besides, there are fifty two stones in total on the Holy Ark’s front side. It is also said those stones with different colors were taken from another galaxy and placed on the Holy Ark’s front side. You may never see such different colors in this world.

The stones have mystical nature. Every stone has a function and a mystery. Every stone has a unique name with relevant meaning.

In the main duty assigned to those magical stones, the beginning of doomsday is defined. Because the mystical stones were actually created for doomsday and placed in the Holy Ark. The chosen one to initiate the doomsday shall shape a new life through the marks and meanings on those stones.’’

Silent Foot’s last statements on the Holy Ark, especially the part of doomsday, made Veysel Baba very excited. For a person tired of politics and adopted socialist thought for many years, such words or religious terms should have no meaning. Yet, it was so exciting to listen mystical things from a talking fox. Fron this point on, he needs to review his certain thoughts especially of the religious ones as well as his prejudices, obsessions and strict ideas. As there is this Holy Ark with the relevant meaning whereas the talking fox assigned to protect the ark was just standing.

Veysel Baba reminded the statements on doomsday as he heard frequently in the recent times and the words on the day of resurrection and the holy relics  . As he recalled dark scenarios of evil ones, he asked his beloved friend Silent Foot that:

‘’My dear friend, we really thank you for sharing details on the Holy Ark with us. In this respect, I would like to push the limit by asking for more descriptive information on the mystical stones you told me previously. For example, could you inform us on the names or functions of those stones?”

‘’I don’t want to offend Veysel Baba, but I have limited knowledge on this issue and I couldn’t push the limits. It could cause very dangerous results for my future. Yet, I may give certain information to you. As I have explained before, there are twenty two stones in the front side of Holy Ark including the Doomsday Stone, Resurrection Stone, Geness Stone, Existence Stone, Eternity Stone, Life Stone, Magic Stone, Mystery Stone, Invisibility Stone, Frequency Stone, Wind Stone, Mind Stone, Skill Stone, Message Stone, Contact Stone, Soul Stone, Dream Stone, Universe Stone, Immortality Stone, Energy Stone, Redemption Stone, Honesty Stone, Friendship Stone, Love Stone, Happiness Stone, Unity Stone, Promise Stone, Fog Stone, Rain Stone, Ocean Stone, Prophet Stone and Heaven Stone.’’

‘’My dear friend, especially the Doomsday Stone attracted my attention among the stones you listed. Could you talk about this Doomsday Stone? Is there any sign or script on this Doomsday Stone?’’

‘’Some cross marks are placed on the Doomsday Stone whereas a sign resembling the letter ‘v’ is at the end of those cross marks.’’

Veysel Baba assumed those cross marks and the v letter would be the roman numerals. He believed those marks were placed to indicate a specific date. Considering those marks or numerals symbolize the actual date of doomsday mentioned in holy books, Veysel Baba asked to Silent Foot:

‘’My dear friend, do you know the amount of cross marks?’’

She replied emotionally: ‘’Sure, I do.But I can’t give more details on the amount of those cross marks currently. It’s forbidden by the Great Council of Foxes. Yet, this is beyond my limits and it may cause misinterpretation. I like you and my fox friends, I don’t want to be separated from you.” The fox friends all together replied:

‘’We love you too”. Silent Foot was affected by Veysel Baba’s and the fox friends’ emotional words. She decided to tell the surprise that she left for the end:

‘’Dear friends, in fact, I came here to disclose all details regarding the Holy Ark and taste the death. But I realized of my pregnancy on my way. As I noticed that I’m pregnant for a few weeks, I decided to delay the death for now. Because I will be a mother again and I will need minimum one year to raise my babies. Who knows, when this day comes, I could tell Veysel Baba the amount of cross marks placed on the Doomsday Stone. I expect your understanding in this case.’’

Upon this good news from Silent Foot, everyone was very pleased and they didn’t want to push Silent Foot more. When the other female foxes stated they are also pregnant, the wind of happiness blew in the middle of Shoreditch Park. Because all female foxes were pregnant. Within few weeks, new members will participate in the meetings in famous Shoreditch Park and our warmhearted Veysel Baba will promote to the rank of grandfather. Such a thought made the exhausted Veysel Baba very happy since the meetings with lectures would become more entertaining and enjoyable with the new babies.

At that night, best moments of happiness were shared in mysterious Shoreditch Park. All fox friends gathered in Shoreditch Park have realized better how good to share love, friendship and some secrets. The beautiful Shoreditch Park was also pleased to host these moments. It was getting dark and this week’s meeting was about to end. The pregnant Silent Foot and other female foxes stated that they would not attend to the meetings for a few weeks. Accordingly, our Veysel Baba delayed the meetings for a few weeks. As the entire city was welcoming a new day, the good fox friends returned their homes to bring new babies to this world. Our Veysel Baba also returned home to write something new. Therefore, one more secret was revealed in this beautiful Shoreditch Park. One more secret was added to this park including many secrets…
