Just want Bochica - Muisca?
Hello there! My name is Bochica, and I have a wonderful story for you from a long, long time ago. I lived in a beautiful, sunny valley high in the mountains, filled with happy people called the Muisca. But one day, the rain started and it didn't stop, pouring down until the whole valley turned into one giant, wobbly puddle! This is the story of the Great Flood and how a little magic helped save the day.
The Muisca people were very sad because their homes were all wet. They wished for someone to help them, and I heard their call. I slid down from the sky on a bright, colorful rainbow! In my hand, I held my special golden staff. I walked to the edge of the valley where the mountains stood like tall walls. I knew just what to do to let all the water out so the sun could shine on their homes again.
With a gentle tap of my golden staff, I touched the giant rock wall. WHOOSH! A big opening appeared, and all the water rushed through it, making a beautiful, tumbling waterfall. The valley was safe and dry again! The Muisca people cheered. I taught them how to plant yummy food and be kind to one another. The waterfall is still there today, and it reminds everyone that even after a big rain, the sun will come out, and helping each other is the best magic of all.
