00:00:10

Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to Kuala Moon, a podcast of




00:00:14

Speaker 1: original children's bedtime stories and meditations designed to make bedtime




00:00:19

Speaker 1: a dree Tonight, we're leaving sleepy forest and traveling to




00:00:25

Speaker 1: a magical school which lies beneath the streets of a busy,




00:00:29

Speaker 1: bustling city.




00:00:30

Speaker 2: It's the first story in a brilliant series called The




00:00:33

Speaker 2: Jupiter Twins. We'll join Lily and Jake Jupiter on their




00:00:38

Speaker 2: first day of school and share the wonders which await




00:00:42

Speaker 2: them inside the enchanted building. Before we meet the Twins, though,




00:00:48

Speaker 2: relax into your bed. To help you relax, try stretching




00:00:54

Speaker 2: out your legs and feet and pointing your toes for




00:00:57

Speaker 2: a few seconds and let them go all floppy. Wiggle




00:01:03

Speaker 2: your fingers and then rest your hands by your side.




00:01:08

Speaker 2: Take some nice deep breaths in hand out, in, hand out,




00:01:19

Speaker 2: and now snuggle down a little bit more.




00:01:24

Speaker 3: Great.




00:01:25

Speaker 2: Now you're ready, it's time for me to begin tonight's story,




00:01:30

Speaker 2: The Jupiter Twins. The Magic Begins by Gillian Rogerson. It




00:01:42

Speaker 2: was on the sunny September morning, with just the whisper




00:01:46

Speaker 2: of autumn in the air, that young twins Lily and




00:01:49

Speaker 2: Jake Jupiter climbed the stone steps of the grand entrance




00:01:54

Speaker 2: to Leeds Town Hall with a glimmer of excitement in




00:01:58

Speaker 2: their eyes. Cars and buses drove along the road behind them.




00:02:04

Speaker 2: Pedestrians made their way to shops, cafes and workplaces. People




00:02:10

Speaker 2: reclined on benches enjoying the freshness of the morning air.




00:02:15

Speaker 2: It looked like a normal day, but it wasn't, not




00:02:19

Speaker 2: for Lily and Jake. They had just turned thirteen, and




00:02:26

Speaker 2: as they had been born into a family with magical abilities,




00:02:30

Speaker 2: they'd been invited to attend the Leora Academy, a renowned




00:02:34

Speaker 2: school of magic, and this was their very first day.




00:02:40

Speaker 2: When they reached the top step, Lily said to Jake,




00:02:44

Speaker 2: are you ready? Jake gave her a big smile. I've




00:02:49

Speaker 2: been ready for months. They looked at the wristwatches, which




00:02:54

Speaker 2: had been sent to them from the Academy the previous week,




00:02:58

Speaker 2: along with precise instructions on how to use them. The




00:03:03

Speaker 2: twins carefully moved the hands on the watch faces to




00:03:07

Speaker 2: thirteen o'clock. Have we done it right? Jay asked his sister.




00:03:14

Speaker 2: We'll soon see, came her reply. They waited for the




00:03:19

Speaker 2: magic to begin. A Few seconds later, chimes sounded out




00:03:26

Speaker 2: from the town hall, counting the hours, even though it




00:03:31

Speaker 2: was nine o'clock. The tones continued until they reached twelve.




00:03:36

Speaker 2: There was a moment's pause, and then a thirteenth chime




00:03:41

Speaker 2: rang out, sounding clearer and sharper than the previous ones.




00:03:47

Speaker 2: A change came over the city. Pedestrians became as still




00:03:53

Speaker 2: as statues, cars and buses stopped. Moving, birds fell quiet,




00:04:00

Speaker 2: The breeze dropped. The tranquil silence descended on the city




00:04:07

Speaker 2: as it froze in time. All of a sudden, the




00:04:12

Speaker 2: gravelly sound of moving stone cut through the quiet air.




00:04:17

Speaker 2: One of the four Portland stone lions at the side




00:04:20

Speaker 2: of the town hall's entrance slowly came to life. He




00:04:25

Speaker 2: rose to his feet and arched his back, making a




00:04:29

Speaker 2: sound like pebbles rolling down a hill. The lion leaped




00:04:35

Speaker 2: from his stone plinth and landed in front of the twins.




00:04:39

Speaker 2: A slow smile settled on his sculptured face. The lion




00:04:45

Speaker 2: spoke in a deep voice, Lily and Jake, Jupiter, it's




00:04:52

Speaker 2: good to finally meet you. Let me introduce myself. I'm Elias,




00:05:00

Speaker 2: one of the guardians of the Academy. Lily said, shyly.




00:05:06

Speaker 2: We know who you are. We've read all about you.




00:05:12

Speaker 2: Elias's smile grew. That's good to know. I see you've




00:05:18

Speaker 2: brought your parents with you. Oh no, Lily replied, we haven't.




00:05:25

Speaker 2: We're thirteen now and we don't need walking to school.




00:05:31

Speaker 2: Elias chuckled. They are hiding behind that post box along




00:05:36

Speaker 2: the road. Who can blame them for wanting to be




00:05:40

Speaker 2: with you on this special day? Are you ready to




00:05:44

Speaker 2: enter the building? Lily and Jake nodded in unison. Elias




00:05:52

Speaker 2: waved his paw over the steps to his right slowly




00:05:57

Speaker 2: and soundlessly. A narrow sation of stairs opened upwards on




00:06:02

Speaker 2: an invisible hinge to reveal a set of descending marble




00:06:07

Speaker 2: steps within. The Lion got to his feet, gave them




00:06:14

Speaker 2: a regal bow, and said, off you go, have the




00:06:20

Speaker 2: most magical of days. Lily, Jake, I assume you know




00:06:27

Speaker 2: all about first day privileges. Lily said they did, but




00:06:33

Speaker 2: didn't know what theirs would be. Elias nodded, it's different




00:06:39

Speaker 2: for every pupil. I can now tell you what your




00:06:44

Speaker 2: first one is. When you get to the bottom of




00:06:47

Speaker 2: the marble steps, you'll come across a spiral staircase which




00:06:52

Speaker 2: has seven hundred stairs. It's quite a hike down, but




00:06:58

Speaker 2: today you're allowed to slide down the banister. It's a




00:07:04

Speaker 2: lot of fun. I've done it more than once. He




00:07:08

Speaker 2: winked at them. Off you go. The twins thanked Elias,




00:07:14

Speaker 2: and then took their first steps into the Leora Academy.




00:07:21

Speaker 2: Down the pale, pink marble stairs they went. Sparkling crystals




00:07:26

Speaker 2: and gems encrusted within the rock lit their way. When




00:07:31

Speaker 2: they came to the spiral staircase, Lily noticed the concerned




00:07:35

Speaker 2: look on her brother's face and offered to go first.




00:07:40

Speaker 2: She climbed onto the polished banister and pushed herself away.




00:07:45

Speaker 2: Her cries of delight filled the air, causing Jake to relax.




00:07:50

Speaker 2: A minute later, he followed her on the winding journey.




00:07:54

Speaker 2: Lily was waiting for him at the bottom, her eyes




00:07:58

Speaker 2: shining with joy. She whispered, Jake, we're here.




00:08:04

Speaker 3: We're finally here. Can you believe it?




00:08:09

Speaker 2: I can't. He looked ahead at the long haul, which




00:08:13

Speaker 2: led to their first port of call, the office of




00:08:18

Speaker 2: doctor Eleanor Howard, the head teacher of the academy. He




00:08:23

Speaker 2: drew Lily's attention to a letter pinned on a cork




00:08:26

Speaker 2: notice board. The letter had their names on it. Lily




00:08:33

Speaker 2: opened the letter, Jake, it's another first day privilege. We




00:08:41

Speaker 2: can cast an enchantment on the floor and travel to




00:08:46

Speaker 2: Dtor Howard's office. However, we want, we have to decide




00:08:50

Speaker 2: which enchantment to use. The twins read through their options.




00:08:57

Speaker 2: They could turn the floor into ice and skate along it,




00:09:02

Speaker 2: or create a long trampoline and bounce from one end




00:09:05

Speaker 2: to the other. They could use a zip line as




00:09:09

Speaker 2: their choice of travel. There was also the chance to




00:09:13

Speaker 2: create an obstacle course comprising of bridges, tunnels, twisty slides,




00:09:19

Speaker 2: and monkey bars. Not only that, they had the option




00:09:24

Speaker 2: to use scooters powered by nuggets of magical shadowstone. Jake sighed,




00:09:32

Speaker 2: I can't decide. They all sound great. I wish we




00:09:36

Speaker 2: could have all of them. The letter rose from Lily's




00:09:41

Speaker 2: hand and folded itself into a paper aeroplane. It flew




00:09:47

Speaker 2: along the hall, emitting a plume of silver smoke behind it,




00:09:52

Speaker 2: which gently floated to the wooden surface of the floor,




00:09:57

Speaker 2: like glitter in a snow globe. The twins watched in




00:10:03

Speaker 2: astonishment as the floor rippled and changed into many different textures.




00:10:11

Speaker 2: We can have all of them. Lily said in an




00:10:15

Speaker 2: awed whisper, Have we just cast our first enchantment? Jake shrugged,




00:10:24

Speaker 2: not knowing the answer. The twins grinned at each other




00:10:29

Speaker 2: before proceeding along the charmed pathway. They skated smoothly over




00:10:36

Speaker 2: the sparkling surface of the frozen wood, a few flakes




00:10:40

Speaker 2: of soft snow fluttering onto their heads, onto the bouncy trampoline, next,




00:10:49

Speaker 2: jumping so high that their outstretched hands touched the ceiling.




00:10:54

Speaker 2: The zip lining followed, and then it was onto the




00:10:58

Speaker 2: obstacle course. After that came their chance to ride the




00:11:02

Speaker 2: scooters powered by Shadowstone. The scooters lifted off the ground




00:11:09

Speaker 2: and bore the twins onwards, making them feel as if




00:11:12

Speaker 2: they were flying. They landed smoothly outside doctor Howard's office




00:11:19

Speaker 2: and stepped off the scooters. The second later, the enchanted




00:11:25

Speaker 2: floor returned to its normal appearance. That was amazing, Neelie said,




00:11:32

Speaker 2: with a big grin on her face. She looked at




00:11:36

Speaker 2: the door in front of her. The smile on her




00:11:39

Speaker 2: face faltered. Sensing his sister's nerves, Jake said he'd go




00:11:46

Speaker 2: into the office first. He raised his fist to knock.




00:11:51

Speaker 2: He never made contact with the door because it swiftly




00:11:55

Speaker 2: swung open. Come in, Come in, voice cooled out. The




00:12:03

Speaker 2: door opened wider, and the twins were met by the




00:12:07

Speaker 2: spectacular sight of a golden sandy beach, the blue sea




00:12:13

Speaker 2: sparkling in the distance, and as your sky dotted with




00:12:18

Speaker 2: swooping seagulls completed the scene, the sound of the rolling




00:12:24

Speaker 2: waves mixed with the faint noise of someone playing a guitar.




00:12:30

Speaker 2: Jake went through the open door and stepped onto the




00:12:33

Speaker 2: soft sand. A warm breeze tickled his face. Lily followed




00:12:40

Speaker 2: him and whispered.




00:12:42

Speaker 3: We're on a beach, I know, with the sea and




00:12:49

Speaker 3: sand and palm trees, and the sea and sand.




00:12:55

Speaker 2: I know. Jake repeated, do you like it? A voice




00:13:00

Speaker 2: asked from a hammock swaying between two palm trees. It




00:13:05

Speaker 2: was the same cheery voice which had bidden them to enter.




00:13:10

Speaker 2: The hammock swung forward, and a woman gracefully climbed out




00:13:15

Speaker 2: and walked towards the twins with her long navy hair




00:13:21

Speaker 2: and sapphire eyes. It was the unmistakable face of doctor




00:13:27

Speaker 2: Eleanor Howard. She was wearing a flowing green dress covered




00:13:34

Speaker 2: in bright yellow sunflowers and red flipflops adorned her feet.




00:13:40

Speaker 2: A pineapple shaped glass was in her hand. Doctor Howard




00:13:45

Speaker 2: stopped in front of the twins and smiled at them. Jake, Lily,




00:13:52

Speaker 2: let me get you a drink. This pineapple juice is exquisite.




00:13:58

Speaker 2: She clicked her fingers and the same pineapple shaped glasses




00:14:03

Speaker 2: appeared in front of the twins. They plucked them as




00:14:08

Speaker 2: though taking apples from a tree. Waving her hand around




00:14:14

Speaker 2: the beach, Doctor Howard explained it was her latest shape




00:14:18

Speaker 2: shifting spell. To change one's own shape is easy enough,




00:14:24

Speaker 2: as you will soon learn, but to change a room




00:14:29

Speaker 2: takes much more practice. Alas, I'm still experiencing some teething




00:14:36

Speaker 2: issues with this spell, such as the t rex playing




00:14:40

Speaker 2: the guitar over there. I have no idea where he




00:14:44

Speaker 2: came from, and he's terrible on that instrument, but I'm




00:14:49

Speaker 2: not going to be the one who tells him. Have




00:14:52

Speaker 2: you seen the size of him? The twins' heads turned




00:14:56

Speaker 2: in the direction of the enormous dinosaur. Doctor Howard continued talking.




00:15:05

Speaker 2: Jake Lily, I'm sure you're eager to explore the academy.




00:15:11

Speaker 2: You'll want to meet your fellow pupils and teachers. And




00:15:14

Speaker 2: discover what lessons you'll be learning in your first year,




00:15:18

Speaker 2: and you're no doubt eager to see your dormitories. Jake




00:15:24

Speaker 2: and Lily sipped on their drinks and nodded eagerly. Before




00:15:29

Speaker 2: you do any of that, you'll need your Book of Magic.




00:15:34

Speaker 2: It contains everything you need to know about the school




00:15:39

Speaker 2: and much more. With another click of her fingers, two black,




00:15:45

Speaker 2: velvet bound books appeared in front of the twins. Jake




00:15:50

Speaker 2: was the first to take his book and open it.




00:15:54

Speaker 2: His brow creased in confusion when he saw the blank pages.




00:16:01

Speaker 2: Doctor Howard said, you have to explore the academy and




00:16:06

Speaker 2: find three hidden gems. Each gem should be placed on




00:16:12

Speaker 2: the spine of the book. Once they're in place, the




00:16:16

Speaker 2: book would reveal its secrets. If you know the history




00:16:22

Speaker 2: of Leora Academy, well you will succeed. You must go now,




00:16:28

Speaker 2: we will talk later. The pineapple shaped glasses vanished from




00:16:34

Speaker 2: the twins' hands, and Doctor Howard returned to the hammock,




00:16:39

Speaker 2: calling out good bye over her shoulder. Feeling somewhat confused,




00:16:47

Speaker 2: Lily and Jake returned to the hallway with their blank books,




00:16:51

Speaker 2: howled against their chests. They walked on down the hall,




00:16:56

Speaker 2: leaving a small trail of sand behind them. It wasn't




00:17:01

Speaker 2: long before they came upon an open door. They went




00:17:05

Speaker 2: inside and discovered a large map printed on the floor.




00:17:10

Speaker 2: Small silver figures floated down from the ceiling and hovered




00:17:15

Speaker 2: in front of them. The twins looked closely at the




00:17:19

Speaker 2: figures before turning to each other in bewilderment. Lily said,




00:17:28

Speaker 2: you don't think these figures are the early settlers, do




00:17:31

Speaker 2: you the ones who founded the school. Jake said he




00:17:37

Speaker 2: did think that, and going by the map of Great




00:17:41

Speaker 2: Britain in front of them, they should put the figures




00:17:45

Speaker 2: in the right places and in the right order. Lily




00:17:50

Speaker 2: admitted she couldn't remember the order, but Jake said he




00:17:54

Speaker 2: could from memory. He began to recite the story of




00:17:59

Speaker 2: how mythical creatures from around the world set out on




00:18:03

Speaker 2: a quest thousands of years ago to find the perfect




00:18:08

Speaker 2: location for a new school of magic. As he named




00:18:12

Speaker 2: each magical creature, Lily put the appropriate figurine in the




00:18:18

Speaker 2: right area on the map. The quest had begun in




00:18:23

Speaker 2: Scotland and on the outer Islands. There, the beings known




00:18:28

Speaker 2: as Selkies declared it the perfect place for the new school.




00:18:33

Speaker 2: Not only because of the coolness of the water, which




00:18:37

Speaker 2: was perfect for them, but because of the iridescent purples, pinks,




00:18:43

Speaker 2: and blue tints of the northern lights, which were so




00:18:46

Speaker 2: magnificent to watch. The Pixies did not care for the




00:18:51

Speaker 2: colder atmosphere, so a journey was made to the southern




00:18:55

Speaker 2: part of England, whereupon the pixies fell in love with




00:18:59

Speaker 2: the sandy beaches and hidden caves. But the centaurs claimed




00:19:05

Speaker 2: somewhere open and wild would be better, somewhere they could




00:19:10

Speaker 2: run freely. Hence the quest took the group to Wales.




00:19:17

Speaker 2: The search did not end there because the Yetties said




00:19:21

Speaker 2: they preferred forest environments, and so everyone headed to an




00:19:27

Speaker 2: area which is now known as Sherwood Forest. However, the




00:19:33

Speaker 2: mer people declared being near a river soothed the creature's




00:19:38

Speaker 2: soul and took the group to a long, meandering river




00:19:43

Speaker 2: which would be called the Thames. The mythical creatures would




00:19:49

Speaker 2: have discussed the matter for years if it wasn't for




00:19:53

Speaker 2: the sudden appearance of a wise owl. After saying she




00:19:59

Speaker 2: knew the perfect place for the school, the owl led




00:20:04

Speaker 2: them to the center of England and Yorkshire. The group




00:20:10

Speaker 2: were guided towards a long winding river, where the owl




00:20:14

Speaker 2: explained future settlers would build a city there full of




00:20:20

Speaker 2: friendly humans with hearts of gold and also the uncannyability




00:20:27

Speaker 2: to speak their minds when needed. And so the new




00:20:34

Speaker 2: school was constructed beneath the ground, not far from the river.




00:20:40

Speaker 2: Enchanted portals were added, which led to lagoons, caves, forests, mountains, lakes,




00:20:49

Speaker 2: and many more landscapes, so that everyone's needs were met.




00:20:56

Speaker 2: Jake concluded his tail and Lily placed the life last




00:21:00

Speaker 2: figure in the middle of leeds. It was a replica




00:21:04

Speaker 2: of the wise owl. As soon as the bird was




00:21:09

Speaker 2: in place, two sapphires appeared on the map. They rose




00:21:16

Speaker 2: and moved towards the blank books. They fixed themselves into




00:21:22

Speaker 2: place on the spine. Lily and Jake left the room




00:21:28

Speaker 2: and once more walked down the hallway. They soon happened




00:21:34

Speaker 2: upon another door. They entered a room full of floating bubbles.




00:21:41

Speaker 2: It took them barely any time to realize the room




00:21:45

Speaker 2: represented a fable called the Night of a Thousand Dreams.




00:21:51

Speaker 2: The fable said sleep fairies flew around towns and cities




00:21:56

Speaker 2: in the twilight hours, watching for dreams which would float




00:22:01

Speaker 2: from houses. The fairies collected them in bottles until they




00:22:07

Speaker 2: each had a thousand dreams. Then they would take the




00:22:12

Speaker 2: bottles to a special cave and place them on shelves.




00:22:19

Speaker 2: If the fairies became aware of someone having trouble sleeping,




00:22:24

Speaker 2: a fairy would take a bottle of the dreams and




00:22:27

Speaker 2: let the bubbles float into the home of the restless sleeper.




00:22:32

Speaker 2: Without fail, the dreams would lead the person to slumber




00:22:38

Speaker 2: and a RESTful night's sleep. Jake wondered what the fable




00:22:44

Speaker 2: had to do with the gems they were searching for.




00:22:48

Speaker 2: Lily pointed to two empty bottles standing on the floor.




00:22:55

Speaker 2: Then she raised her hand towards the nearest bobbing bubble.




00:23:01

Speaker 2: I think these bubbles are our dreams. I remember having




00:23:07

Speaker 2: that one over there. It's about a tree house in




00:23:12

Speaker 2: the clouds. And you told me about that dream of




00:23:16

Speaker 2: yours when you flew on the back of an emerald dragon.




00:23:21

Speaker 2: Can you see it just behind you. I think we




00:23:27

Speaker 2: have to collect our dreams and put them in these bottles,




00:23:33

Speaker 2: But how will we reach them? Jake asked, Some of




00:23:38

Speaker 2: the bubbles are near the ceiling. No sooner had he




00:23:44

Speaker 2: said those words than a pair of silver wings materialized




00:23:50

Speaker 2: on the back of each twin. Within seconds, they were




00:23:56

Speaker 2: flying around the room chasing dreams. As soon as they




00:24:02

Speaker 2: reached out for a bubble, it would pop, and a




00:24:06

Speaker 2: sprinkle of glitter floated towards the bottles on the floor




00:24:11

Speaker 2: and trickled inside. When the last of the dreams were




00:24:19

Speaker 2: inside the bottles, Lily and Jake returned to the floor




00:24:25

Speaker 2: and their wings vanished. Jake gazed at the bottles. I




00:24:32

Speaker 2: wonder if any of those dreams will come true? They might.




00:24:39

Speaker 2: We are in a school of magic, after all. The




00:24:44

Speaker 2: bottles turned into rubies and attached themselves to the spines




00:24:50

Speaker 2: of the velvet covered books. The twins left the room.




00:24:58

Speaker 2: Instead of the hallway outside, they were faced with a




00:25:02

Speaker 2: wide expanse of night sky. Stars twinkled and sparkled like gems.




00:25:13

Speaker 2: What do we do now, Lily asked? What's the sky




00:25:20

Speaker 2: got to do with the history of this school, don't




00:25:25

Speaker 2: you remember? Lily shook her head. Jake pointed towards the




00:25:34

Speaker 2: star filled sky and said, there are many constellations which




00:25:41

Speaker 2: are visible to humans Pegasus and Pisces, Aquarius, Vernequila, Lepus




00:25:49

Speaker 2: the hair, and Signus the swan, but there is only




00:25:55

Speaker 2: one constellation, which can be seen by those with magical




00:25:59

Speaker 2: ability is I've never seen her before, but now that




00:26:04

Speaker 2: we're inside this school, we might be able to see her.




00:26:09

Speaker 2: Let's try. The twins scanned the sky until they found




00:26:15

Speaker 2: what they were looking for. There she is, Lily pointed




00:26:22

Speaker 2: to the left, the wise owl who led the first




00:26:28

Speaker 2: founders here, Leora. As though hearing her name, the star




00:26:35

Speaker 2: shaped owl flapped her wings and flew from the sky.




00:26:42

Speaker 2: She landed in front of the twins, matching them in height.




00:26:47

Speaker 2: Her wings opened out, and two stars floated towards the books.




00:26:55

Speaker 2: They turned into diamonds before settling onto the spines. The




00:27:03

Speaker 2: stars which made up Leura faded and she became a




00:27:08

Speaker 2: real owl. I've been watching over you two for a while.




00:27:15

Speaker 2: I'm so very pleased you're here. Your books of magic




00:27:22

Speaker 2: are now ready. As part of your first day privileges,




00:27:29

Speaker 2: I can tell you a story about the enchanted owls




00:27:34

Speaker 2: of Leads, how they came to be here, and how




00:27:40

Speaker 2: they look after the city. Would you like that? The




00:27:46

Speaker 2: twins could only not, having seemingly lost their ability to speak.




00:27:56

Speaker 2: The Aura opened her wings and tucked and Jake cozily




00:28:02

Speaker 2: inside her warm feathers. They sat down and gazed at




00:28:08

Speaker 2: the night sky for a little while. Then the wise




00:28:13

Speaker 2: owl proceeded to tell the story about the enchanted owls




00:28:19

Speaker 2: of Leeds. She explained how they first arrived in Leeds




00:28:26

Speaker 2: and the many ways they look after the city and




00:28:29

Speaker 2: this inhabitants. Not only that, the owls continue to keep




00:28:36

Speaker 2: a careful eye on the magical school which lies deep




00:28:42

Speaker 2: beneath the bustling city. The aura pulled the twins a




00:28:49

Speaker 2: little closer and said, this academy is full of magic




00:28:56

Speaker 2: and enchantment. There are many adventures is waiting for you,




00:29:03

Speaker 2: But for now, close your eyes and rest a while.




00:29:09

Speaker 2: The adventure can wait until tomorrow.
