One: "The Midnight Exploration"
Luna's eyes were glued to the ceiling, her mind racing with thoughts of far-off lands and magical creatures. But suddenly, a strange noise pierced the silence of the night, shattering her reverie. She threw off her covers and slipped on her favorite pair of sparkly slippers, her heart racing with excitement.
"Riko, wake up!" she whispered urgently, shaking her friend's shoulder.
Riko groggily opened his eyes, rubbing his sleepy eyes with the back of his hand. "What's going on, Luna?" he mumbled, his voice husky with sleep.
"I'm not sure, but I think it's coming from the garden!" Luna exclaimed, her eyes shining with excitement.
Cecilia, who was sleeping in the next room, suddenly sat up and rubbed her eyes. "Ooh, an adventure! Count me in!" she said, jumping out of bed and racing to join her friends.
The three friends crept out of their room, their hearts pounding with anticipation. They slipped through the dark hallway, their flashlights casting eerie shadows on the walls. As they reached the garden, they saw the Dokis standing around a strange-looking alarm clock, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of the moon.
Lian snuck out of the imperial palace and exposed the village healer to be a fraud and a devil-worshipper. Cursed by the spurned fire god, Huogwai, and disgraced and cast out by the royal family, Lian set out with her manservant Emiru to the kingdom of fire to rid her of the curse of uncontrollable flames for a chance to regain her claim to the throne. But being a fire disciple meant she was a practitioner of the forbidden arts. For those that hunt her kind, the game had just started.
