When The Birds Fly South

When the Birds Fly South

by Stanton A. Coblentz

Dan Prescott, a fearless American adventurer, stumbles upon the hidden valley of Sobul nestled within the mountainous terrain of Afghanistan. This secluded haven is inhabited by a mysterious race known as the 'Ibandru,' who possess the extraordinary ability to fly. Prescott is captivated by their unique culture and becomes deeply enamored with Yasma, an Ibandru woman. Their love blossoms, culminating in a grand celebration as they are united in marriage. However, the idyllic existence is disrupted by the approaching season. As fall sets in, the Ibandru prepare for their annual migration southward, following the migratory patterns of birds. This tradition compels them to leave their valley, and Yasma, now Prescott's beloved wife, is forced to accompany them on this perilous journey. The story explores themes of love, cultural differences, and the sacrifices made in the pursuit of happiness, set against a backdrop of a captivating and fantastical world.
