Once, in a grey and gloomy world, there lived a little girl named Lily.
Lily had bright eyes that sparkled with hope, even when the sky was sad.
She found a map, old and torn, hidden under a loose floorboard in her room.
The map spoke of a place where the sun smiled and the air buzzed with magic.
Excited, Lily decided she must visit this place and bring back the sun's warmth.
She packed a small bag with her favorite book, some bread, and a soft red hat.
Before leaving, she hugged her grey cat, Whisper, and promised to return soon.
Lily walked and walked, through whispering forests and silent hills.
Along the way, she met a crow who cawed, 'The bright place is not far now!'
As she traveled, the shades of grey started to change, becoming a little lighter.
Finally, Lily reached the place where the sun chuckled low in the sky, bathing everything in gold.
She twirled, laughing as warmth filled the air, knowing she would share this light with home.
