The chandelier above him, adorned with intricate crystals, shimmered and danced with a new radiance. Its soft light spread around the room, casting a vibrant varieties of colors that painted the walls and furniture.

Wisps of clouds, painted in shades of amber and dark blue, stretched across the heavens, adding a touch of ethereal beauty to the scene.
