Whispers Among the Leaves

In the heart of the Lights and Colorful Forest, Nivi and Hashini were having the time of their lives. The trees painted the sky in hues of orange, pink, and purple, as if nature had dipped its brush into a pot of wonders.

"Race you to the bottom!" Nivi called, her voice trailing behind as she slid down a smooth, curling branch.

Hashini giggled, following her sister's lead with a graceful swoosh.

Then, just as they reached the ground, something peculiar caught their eyes—a shimmering balloon, floating gently among the leaves.

"Hello, brave ones!" the balloon said with a playful bounce. "Fancy a riddle or two?"

A Whisper in the Breeze

Nivi and Hashini exchanged curious glances as the balloon continued to sway in the gentle breeze.

"A riddle for a secret, and a secret for a treasure!" it sang, its surface shimmering with ever-changing colors.

Nivi, her eyes wide with excitement, asked, "What do we do, Hashini?"

Hashini, thoughtful as always, pondered the balloon's words. But before she could speak, a creature dropped from the branches above.

It was Zippy, a mischievous squirrel with a knack for imitation. "Answers? Answers! In the quiet of colors, one finds truth," it chattered, adding further mystery to the puzzle.

Nivi smiled. "So we must listen carefully, right?"
