The Legend of Chiaki Park
This is not one of those dinky ghost stories. This is not imaginary. Sit back.
A long time ago, there lived a great nation called the Chiakis. They had built up a great nation. For eight years, their ingenious irrigation system brought water and their crops prospered, the game was plentiful, and the Chiakis ate well. Yet good luck does not last forever.
For 12 years after the eight, the Chiaki’s irrigation system failed to bring water to the crops, the crops withered and died, the game skirted around the high rim of the canyon. The surrounding higher cliffs grew lush and plentiful, but they could not reach it. They had become too weak. Almost all the Chiakis died four years into this terrible famine
Europeans came, but passed by when they saw the barren canyon. When they built roads, they built around the canyon, but what not many people know is that a group of about 14 of the original Chiakis decided to flee. They later advised Theodore Roosevelt to create a national park in the canyon and name it Chiaki Park. When the park lodges were being constructed a tablet reading ‘follow our fate’ was destroyed. You see, the Chiakis were famous for their magic stone tablets. They traded them with all the other countries. In fact, King Tutankhamen’s curse “death on swift wings” was made by the Chiakis. Back to the legend.
The fate of the Chiakis was that they dissipated into nothing. When the Park was finished, all the workers ceased to exist. Well, they still thought they existed, and they weren’t dead, but under records their name was erased. All the workers thought their eyes were playing tricks on them and they weren’t really invisible. One worker tried to smash a mug, but his hand went right through. Nothing..
Since then, no one has come out of Chiaki Park. Whole school groups are gone overnight. Caravans, RVs, hikers, everyone disappears as if they’re wearing all green on a green screen.
So when you sleep tonight, remember the workers, who were never remembered. Remember the victims of the Chiaki Park curse. Remember nothing. NOTHING.
