In a quiet rainforest, where leaves swayed like lullabies and the air smelled of rain and dreams, lived a peaceful sloth named Sora. Sora was slow, soft, and thoughtful. While other animals rushed and played, Sora preferred to nap, gaze at the sky, and listen to the breeze.

But Sora had a secret wish, to find the Skyblossom, a legendary flower said to bloom only once, high above the clouds, glowing with gentle magic.

One evening, just as the stars twinkled, Sora looked up and saw a faint sparkle drifting down from the sky. “It’s time,” Sora whispered, blinking slowly. “The Skyblossom is blooming.”

The Floating Tree

Sora began the journey by climbing the tallest tree in the forest, the Grand Kapok, whose branches stretched so high they vanished into mist.

The climb was long, but Sora was patient. As he rose higher, butterflies guided him, and vines formed ladders just for him. After a while, the wind began to hum, and a gentle puff of cloud wrapped around his paws. He had reached the Cloudline, where earth and sky quietly held hands.

The Garden in the Sky

At last, after what felt like a dream, Sora reached a quiet patch of glowing mist. In the center stood the Skyblossom, a silver flower with petals like moonlight and a soft light that pulsed like a heartbeat.

Sora sat beside it, not to pick it, but to admire. The flower opened fully and released a glowing seed. It floated gently into Sora’s paws.

“A gift,” said the breeze, “for your quiet courage.”
