In a kingdom where stars sparkled brightly in the night sky and dragons lived in the mountains, there was a girl named Elara. Elara loved hearing stories about dragons—amazing creatures with scales that glittered like gems and wings that stretched across the sky.
One evening, as Elara looked at the stars from her window, she saw something amazing—a shooting star falling gracefully toward the forest at the kingdom’s edge. Curious, she decided to follow where the star landed.
With a lantern and excitement in her eyes, Elara went into the forest. The trees whispered old stories as she walked deeper, guided by the star’s soft glow.
In a clearing, she gasped in wonder. There stood a dragon like no other she had seen. Its scales shone with night sky colors—deep blues, purples, and silvers sparkling like stars. Its eyes were kind and wise, and its wings spread gracefully.
“You’re the Starlight Dragon,” Elara whispered in amazement.
The dragon nodded slowly, its voice echoing softly like leaves in the wind. “Yes, child. I guard starlight and dreams.”
Elara approached carefully, her heart racing. “Why are you here?”
The Starlight Dragon lowered its head sadly. “Long ago, my family and I flew freely in the skies, sharing tales of magic. But people began to fear us, and we hid away.”
Elara listened closely, feeling for the magnificent creature. “Why did the shooting star bring me to you?”
The dragon sighed gently. “The star was a sign—a call for someone brave and kind to remind everyone of magic. Elara, will you help me?”
Elara nodded right away. “Yes, Starlight Dragon. I’ll help you.”
Together, Elara and the Starlight Dragon traveled across the kingdom. They visited villages in valleys and towns on mountains, sharing stories of bravery, kindness, and the magic of starlight.
As they journeyed, Elara learned the dragon’s name—Astra—and found that behind Astra’s grand appearance was a gentle soul who wanted to inspire others with the beauty of the night sky.
One night, standing on a cliff, Astra spread her wings wide and whispered, “Thank you, Elara. Because of you, the stars will shine brighter than ever.”
And so, in the kingdom where stars sparkled in the night sky and dragons lived in the mountains, Elara and Astra continued their journey, filling hearts with the magic of the Starlight Dragon.
The end.
