    Thanh, a young man with a thirst for adventure, decided to explore the vast sea that bordered his village. He had always been fascinated by the endless blue expanse and the mysteries it held.

    During his exploration, Thanh encountered a majestic sea turtle. The turtle introduced himself as Kim Quy, the Turtle God, and offered Thanh a gift.

    The Turtle God bequeathed Thanh with magical powers. Thanh, feeling a surge of energy coursing through him, thanked the Turtle God and promised to use his powers for good.

    Upon his return to the village, Thanh discovered it was being terrorized by a goblin. The goblin had a particular fondness for chickens and had been stealing them from the villagers.

    Thanh, using his newly acquired powers, confronted the goblin. He demanded the goblin to stop its actions and return the chickens. The goblin, however, laughed and challenged Thanh.
