Once upon a time, in a village surrounded by dense forests, there lived a girl named Anya. Her parents were artisans: her mother wove intricate scarves, and her father carved wood. One day, her father fell gravely ill, and no medicine could be found in the village. Determined to save him, Anya ventured into the forbidden forest, where legend spoke of a magical bird—the Crystal Swan—whose feather could cure any ailment.

Deep in the woods, she found a cavern glowing with ethereal light. Inside, the Swan stood, its feathers shimmering like ice—but shrouded in darkness. The bird spoke:
«To claim a feather, you must sacrifice what you cherish most.»
Without hesitation, Anya offered her beloved necklace, a gift from her mother. The shadows vanished, the Swan blazed brighter, and it bestowed a feather upon her.

When Anya returned home, the feather dissolved into her father’s tea, and he was healed. From then on, the Crystal Swan guarded the forest, and Anya learned that true magic lies in selflessness and faith.

The tale ends here, but remember: even in the darkest places, light endures if you believe.

As she crossed a raging river via an ancient, vine-choked bridge, she encountered a fox who posed a riddle:
«What is lighter than air, yet heavier than stone?»
Anya replied, «A shadow,» and the fox pointed her onward.
