The Color of Dreams🔊

Once upon a time, in a vibrant village, situated on the cusp of a mystical forest, lived a charismatic young girl named Aurora. She was unlike any ordinary villager as she possessed an extraordinary talent; she could see people's dreams. Her villagers fondly called her 'The Dream Painter.' From veterans reminiscing their old adventures to youngsters dreaming about their first love, Aurora could perceive them all vividly. She painted these dreams onto large canvases, making every dream tangible and eternal.

Every day, the ambience echoed with awe and vigor when Aurora would start her work. A heavenly fragrance emanated from her exquisite paints, and every stroke sparked anticipation. But amongst the spectacle, hidden within the crowd was a boy named Eros. He was an introverted soul, far too shy to express his feelings for Aurora. His silence spoke volumes about the love he bore yonder the dreams shared and beyond the colors that reflected Aurora in them.

One ethereal night, while Aurora was asleep, she found herself in a peculiar situation. She had a dream, but it was pitch black, completely devoid of any colors, unlike the visions she transcribed from people’s dreams. She woke up puzzled and unnerved. The next morning, her stream of visions, which was usually filled with bursts of colors and dreams, was stark and empty.

Fearing the loss of her ability, Aurora became distraught. The village plunged into a state of concern as they couldn’t fathom a life without the vividness of their dreams. The once vibrant and lively village was now enveloped in a quiet sadness. Amidst this despair, Eros decided to break his silent vow. He approached Aurora with a proposal that shocked her, 'Let me help you find your colors, Aurora.'

Emboldened by this newly found companionship, Aurora set off on a journey into the mystical forest that lay on the outskirts of their village. Amongst dense green canopies and enchanting chorus of birds, they discovered a legendary flower that only bloomed in the moonglow. It was called the 'Dreamflower,' and legend told it was the root of all dreams in the world.

Armed with courage and a pail full of moonlit water, Aurora and Eros spent countless nights tending to the Dreamflower, hoping to restore Aurora's gift. However, what they received in return was far more precious. They found each other, their dreams intertwining like vines, blossoming into an ethereal love story beneath the moonlit dreamflower.

One radiant night, the Dreamflower bloomed in all its glory. All of a sudden, Aurora saw Eros’s dreams, filled with vibrant colors of love and admiration for her. Overwhelmed by this revelation, she knew she had found her lost colors. His love was the missing color in her dreams, and his dreams were the missing piece in her heart's palette.

Aurora’s ability returned, and with it, the vibrancy of the village got resurrected. This time, she painted not just dreams but the depth of human emotions. The first of her new series was a unique painting depicting their dream under the Dreamflower. It symbolized their love, bonding, and discovery that not only instilled colors into her dream but painted their village with the colors of love and unity. From then on, Eros and Aurora not just painted dreams together but also lived their dream of a color-filled love story.

Through her journey to regain her lost colors, Aurora realized that they were not just in dreams but in the heartfelt emotions of her people. And among those emotions, Eros’s silent yet vibrant love was the color that was missing in her dreams. From then on, her dreamworld was filled with vibrant emotions, each teaching her the depth and colors of human feelings, making her a true 'Dream Painter'.
