Many centuries ago, in the green mountains of Algeria, there was a small village called Tizi. Life there was simple, but full of challenges. The families lived in harmony with nature, but the fear of invasion and the constant struggle against drought made life difficult.
On a hot summer's day, a young girl called Amira was walking to the well to fetch water when she saw a bright light in the sky. At first, she thought it was a reflection of the sun, but soon realized that the light was coming down towards her. Frightened and curious, she hid behind a rock. When the light touched the ground, it revealed a radiant figure with wings - an angel.
Amira, not knowing what to do, remained silent. The angel looked at her and smiled, saying:
- Don't be afraid, Amira. I am the Angel Saphira, sent to help your village. I have watched you all struggle, and I know that your land is dry. Your strength and courage have not gone unnoticed.
Amira was amazed and shocked at the same time, not knowing what to say. The angel continued:
- I bring a message of hope. This land, with its difficulties, has something very special: its connection with nature. If you learn to respect the land even more, to take care of the waters and to work together, a new era will emerge.
With a gentle touch, Saphira raised her hands and, in a magical movement, made the clouds gather over the village. Suddenly, rain began to fall. It was a gentle but steady rain that drained the dry land and gave new life to the fields. Amira watched in amazement as the seeds, previously lost in the arid soil, began to sprout.
The angel turned to Amira and said:
- Never forget that true strength comes from unity. If your village continues to work with love and respect for the land, it will never feel hungry or thirsty again. May this rain be the start of a new cycle of prosperity.
With those words, Saphira stood up again and flew into the sky, disappearing into the clouds.
Amira returned to the village, telling everyone about the angel and the miraculous rain. Over time, the village prospered. The water flowed abundantly again, the crops grew, and the families became closer than ever. Saphira's message was passed down from generation to generation, reminding everyone of the importance of looking after the land and each other.
And so, in the mountains of Algeria, the legend of the Angel of Hope endures to this day, a symbol of faith, unity and renewal.
