The Sacred Dance of the Sun and the Moon #Shortys2024

The beautiful, tropical island of Heliene has always been home to magical legends, speaking of its tribe and how they lived in harmony with Nature. Yet no story is as magical as the one of the wise Queen Oenothera and her loyal friend, Alba; two girls as different as the Sun and the Moon, but as inseparable as the waves and the sand. Two girls that stood by each other's side, proving true friendship can be responsible for the most amazing wonders in this world!

My entry for the 'Shortys 2024' contest by the @shortstory and @Poetry profiles.

Inspired by a comic strip called 'Εξωτικη Ομορφιά' (exotical beauty), which I found in a Greek Barbie magazine from the 90s.

Heliene = a combination of the Greek words Helios and Selene (Sun and Moon).
