Bab 167: Story 167: The Enchanted Forest

In a small village nestled between rolling hills and dense forests, there lived a young girl named Elara. She was known for her curiosity and adventurous spirit. Every day, she would explore the outskirts of the village, dreaming of discovering something magical.

One sunny afternoon, while wandering deeper into the forest than she ever had before, Elara stumbled upon a hidden path. The path was lined with ancient trees whose branches seemed to whisper secrets. Intrigued, she followed the trail, her heart pounding with excitement.

As she ventured further, the forest began to change. The air grew cooler, and the sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a golden glow. Suddenly, she found herself in a clearing. In the center stood a magnificent tree, unlike any she had ever seen. Its bark shimmered with a silvery hue, and its leaves sparkled like emeralds.
