Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb. 

I will tell you about Telaga Warna. If you want, please read below. 

Happy reading everyone! 

Long ago there was a kingdom in West Java named Kutatanggeuhan. Kutatanggeuhan is a prosperous and peaceful kingdom. The people live in peace and prosperity because they are led by a wise king. King Kutatanggeuhan named King Suwartalaya and his empress named Queen Purbamanah. But King and Queen have not been blessed with offspring so they always feel lonely.

Finally the King decided to meditate on the mountain. That's where he meditated in Goa, after days of King Suwartalaya praying, one day suddenly there was a magical voice.

After that, King Suwartalaya returned home happily. Sure enough a few weeks later, the Queen was pregnant. Everyone rejoices. Moreover, when nine months later the Queen gave birth to a beautiful daughter. He was given the name is Princess Gilang Rukmini. King Suwartalaya has a festive party to celebrate the birth of their daughter. Princess Gilang Rukmini became the favorite daughter of the people of Kutatanggeuhan.

A few years have passed, Gilang Rukmini's daughter grew into a beautiful girl. But Gilang Rukmini's daughter is very spoiled, maybe because King and Queen really spoiled her. Whatever is requested by the princess must be followed immediately. Otherwise the princess will be very angry and act harshly. But the people still love him. They hope that one day the nature of the princess will change by itself.

One day when seventeen-year-old daughter King Suwartalaya will hold a thanks giving party in the palace. All people may come and give prayers for Gilang Rukmini's daughter. People gather and plan special gifts for their beloved daughter. Finally it was agreed that they would present a very beautiful necklace. The necklace is made of the finest gold and sprinkled with colorful gems. So the people voluntarily set aside their money and collect it for the cost of making the prize.

Finally the long-awaited day came too. Crowded people came to the palace courtyard where Gilang Rukmini's daughter's birthday party was held. In front of the palace stood a magnificent stage.

Now is the time for the people to present their special gifts. They gave the box containing the gift to Gilang Rukmini's daughter. King Suwartalaya opened the box and took out a colorful necklace that was very beautiful and gave it to Gilang Rukmini's daughter. But Gilang's daughter Rukmini looked at the necklace with a frown and thought that the necklace was cheap.

He slammed the necklace to the floor until it was broken. King Suwartalaya, Queen Purbamanah and the people of Kutatanggeuhan were very sad to see that incident. Then the cry of the Queen of Purbamanah broke. Finally all of them shed tears, until the palace was wet with their tears. They kept crying until their tears flooded the palace, and suddenly from the ground there was heavy water, more and more and more. Until finally the Kutatanggeuhan kingdom sank and a beautiful lake was created. Now the lake is called Telaga Warna, because if it's a sunny day, the lake looks beautiful and colorful.

Okey,  the short story about Telaga Warna is over, I hope that it can be useful for readers and can increase knowledge.
