Comic Story
Panel 1
The river flows, always changing, Baba always said. But some changes, like the loss of our land, feel like a betrayal.
Panel 2
Our family has farmed this land for generations, each harvest feeding the village. Now, the river wants to take it all back.
Panel 3
Baba says we must accept what comes, but I can't. I owe it to him, to my ancestors, to find a way.
Panel 4
The elders spoke of ancient techniques to stabilize the banks, forgotten with time. But where do I even begin to search?
Panel 5
A crumpled map, tucked away in Baba's old journals, hinted at something near the old temple ruins. Could this be it?
Panel 6
The ruins, overgrown and forgotten, held the key: a system of interwoven bamboo and earth to hold the river at bay.
Panel 7
It wasn't just about stopping the river, but understanding it, working with its flow. Baba knew, even when he seemed resigned.
Panel 8
The river still flows, still changes. But now, it flows with us, not against us. I understand now. Inheritance isn't just land.
Panel 9
It is wisdom, resilience, and the spirit to protect what matters. That is the true legacy.
