Title: The Lost City Beneath the Ocean

Level: Intermediate (B1)


Story :

Isabella grows up in a coastal village, hearing stories of Atlantis, the lost city beneath the ocean. Unlike others, she believes it is real and feels a deep connection to the sea. One evening, after seeing a mysterious flash of light in the water, she ventures out and is pulled into the depths by a powerful whirlpool. When she awakens, she finds herself in Atlantis, a magnificent underwater city. There, she meets Kaelen, the last guardian of Atlantis, who tells her that the city's magic is fading, and only she can restore it by retrieving the Heart of Atlantis, a powerful gem. With determination, Isabella embarks on a dangerous journey to the temple where the Heart is hidden. She faces eerie creatures and a magical barrier but ultimately succeeds in saving the city. Though Atlantis remains hidden beneath the sea, Isabella returns to the surface, knowing she has restored the ancient city's magic.
