Deep in the mountains, there lived a bright girl.
As the eldest children of the family, she ought to represent her family in the upcoming Lantern-Sow festival.
One must be certain and muster up the courage towards those paths they desire into the unknown.
Not wanting to be a disgrace of the family, she ran away knowing she couldn’t have done it.
Lost in the woods, a deem light could be seen from a distance away.
Unbeknown to her, she met a different light. He wasn’t bright, but his light shines certainty. She was shown around the town, and eventually they started glowing closer as time passes.
During the time of Lantern-Sow once again, she glows brighter than ever. Involuntary, she started floating as they grab onto each other hands.
“No, I want to stay here” She quavered.
As she holds onto the last string, he ran to the highest point to reach her.
He jumped, and enveloped her blazing beam hoping that it’ll tranquil her burst of desires.
Lights funnelled into those small gaps which radiate so brightly across the night sky. Now knowing that she can certain, that her light was in her desired path.
They embraced one another, with a tight long hug. AS they slowly descend to the ground.
The deem light that once scattered broad,
has now shine as a guiding path to certainty.
