On a quiet hill above a small village, a bird rests in perfect stillness. Its feathers shimmer with colours not yet named, hues that seem to belong more to dreams than to daylight. Each dawn, the sky blooms differently—rose and gold, lavender and green—painting the world with a peace that flows gently into the lives of those below.
