Immunity kingdom
Print Edition
Once upon a time, it was peaceful in the Kingdom of Immunity. It was the turn of the seasons, and residents of the royal palace were eagerly anticipating the upcoming winter holiday celebrations, a joyous occasion for all. The kingdom was not an overly extravagant one, but it was a warm, beautiful place, one that never failed to remind visitors of nostalgic evenings nestled by a crackling fire sharing childhood memories with loved ones. The Kingdom of Immunity was a community where all of its citizens cooperated with each other to protect their homeland, the human body. Together, they ensured the body was healthy, stable, and overall a thriving environment.
Preparations for the first celebration of the winter season were already underway, as the king’s grand feast was quickly approaching. The cooks were making bounties of steaming jasmine rice, fresh garden vegetables and delicious cured meats to nourish the body during the feast. Everything was going smoothly until one day, terror struck the kingdom. Alas, they were being invaded! Their enemy clan, the mighty Flu Virus, had come to attack, and they were not afraid to use their weapons of runny nose boogers, fever chills and throbbing headaches to take down the human body once and for all. Many people were scared, worried that the body would not recover in time for the festival, but they had nothing to fear, as the Kingdom of Immunity was ready to fight back.
Long ago, the king had devised a war plan to fight off pathogens such as viruses and bacteria looking to infect the human body; he called this plan the “Immune System.” In the immune system royal army, physical barriers such as the skin acted as the first line of defense, steadfastly guarding the body and keeping the kingdom secure everyday.
