By the Moon

Courage Watercolor style

Kiya, a quiet and shy 7-year-old girl from the Kootenays, faces her fears on a summer night as she embarks on a courageous journey to solve a mysterious problem under the moonlight.

In the beautiful town of Kootenays, lived a 7-year-old girl named Kiya. She had mid-length, wavy blonde hair and was quite shy and nervous. One summer night, she noticed that the moon was missing from the sky. Kiya knew that the moonlight was crucial for the town's night festival. Without the moon, the festival would be ruined, and everyone would be disappointed.

Kiya decided she had to find out what happened to the moon. She packed a small bag and started her journey into the forest. As she walked, she heard strange noises and began to feel scared. Kiya whispered to herself, - I have to be brave, the festival depends on it.

Kiya reached a large, mysterious cave. The entrance was covered in thick vines. She tried to push them aside, but they were too strong. - How will I ever get through? Kiya asked herself. She sat down and felt like crying.

Kiya decided to look for something to cut the vines. She found a sharp rock nearby and started slicing through them. It was hard work, and her hands hurt. - I can't give up now, Kiya said to herself. After a long struggle, she finally made an opening big enough to enter.

Inside the cave, it was dark and eerie. Kiya heard water dripping and strange echoes. She felt her way along the walls, but suddenly tripped over something. - Ouch! she exclaimed. She looked down and saw a shiny, glowing stone.

Kiya tried to use the glowing stone to light her way, but the cave seemed endless. She felt exhausted and scared. - Maybe I should just go back, Kiya thought. She sat down, feeling hopeless and alone in the dark cave.

Just then, an old owl flew down and landed next to her. - Why are you so sad, little one? the owl asked. Kiya explained her quest to find the moon. - The glowing stone you found is the key, the owl said. - Follow its light and you will find what you seek.

Kiya held the glowing stone up high and followed its light deeper into the cave. She finally found a hidden chamber where the moon was trapped behind a magical barrier. Kiya touched the glowing stone to the barrier, and it dissolved. The moon floated back into the sky, shining brightly. - I did it! Kiya cheered. She had found the courage to save the festival.
