The Hidden Forest
Once upon a time, in a quiet village surrounded by mountains, there lived a curious young
girl named Lina. Every day, she would explore the edge of the forest, wondering what lay
beyond the thick trees that no one dared to enter.
One morning, as the mist clung to the ground and the birds sang their soft songs, Lina
discovered a hidden path behind a wall of ivy. Her heart beat fast with excitement as she
stepped onto the trail, guided by a glowing butterfly.
The deeper she went, the more magical the forest became. Trees whispered her name,
flowers bloomed in her footsteps, and animals spoke in riddles. At the center of the forest,
she found an ancient tree with a door carved into its trunk.
Inside, Lina met the Guardian of the Forest, an old woman with eyes like stars. "You are the
chosen one," she said. "The forest has waited for you."
From that day on, Lina became the protector of the forest, ensuring the balance between her
village and the magical world hidden within the trees.
