Charles loved exploring new places and taking photographs. Once, Charles set out on a sea journey. He sailed alone from the shore and took the photographs of everything he saw. As night dawned, he heard a soothing hymn. As he looked around, he felt it coming from the water. Charles looked at the sea carefully. He saw strange lights floating on the water. Charles was hypnotised. All he wanted to do was jump into the water and follow the sweet sound and glowing lights. Charles was standing on the edge of the ship, when he saw another ship come towards him. The strange lights gave a loud shriek and dived into the water. Charles fainted. As he woke up, the captain of the other ship said, “Sir, what you saw were water sprites. They are notorious fairies, who hypnotise sailors and drown them.” Charles was very lucky that he survived.
