The Legend of the Ancient Crystal

In a small village there existed the legend of an ancient crystal, said to be endowed with incredible power. The crystal was hidden deep within the bowels of the mountain, guarded by a dragon and a gaggle of mystical creatures. 
No one had ever seen the crystal, yet everyone spoke of its great potential. Those who possessed it would hold the power to alter reality and manipulate fate.
But the crystal was a guarded secret, so no one ever dared to attempt to retrieve it. Instead, they made their own lives in the small village, living by its simple, rustic traditions.
When a young man from the village named John showed up in town with stories of seeing the crystal, the whole town became interested in his tales.
John had ventured deep into the mountain and seen the crystal first-hand. He spoke of its beauty and power and his vivid descriptions made the legend of the ancient crystal seem more real than ever.
John declared that with the help of the villagers to brave the dangers of the mountain and retrieve the crystal, everyone's lives would be changed forever.
John gathered the villagers and they began their mission to find the crystal. After days of travel and obstacles, they eventually arrived at the crystal's resting place. 
John and the villagers encountered the dragon and the guardians of the crystal- but with a combination of courage and ingenuity they were able to subdue them and seize the treasure.
The crystal was returned to the village and with its power, the village prospered and every one's lives were changed for the better. 
The legend of the ancient crystal lives on in the hearts and minds of the villagers. They never forget their journey to retrieve the crystal, and the courage and bravery displayed by all those involved.
