Summary
One night, as Alden drifts into sleep, he is transported to an ancient, magical forest filled with shimmering trees and glowing fireflies. There, he encounters Griffyn, a grumpy but wise griffin who tests him with a riddle. Alden successfully answers, proving himself worthy of staying in the enchanted realm. Soon after, they meet Sylphine, a mischievous fae who seeks their help in retrieving her lost moonstone. Guided by Sylphine’s directions, Alden and Griffyn soar through the forest and arrive at a mystical clearing where the gem rests atop an ancient pedestal. However, a spectral wolf guards the treasure. Rather than fighting, Alden realizes the wolf is not an enemy but a guardian. Speaking calmly, he convinces the creature to allow Sylphine to reclaim her moonstone. In gratitude, Sylphine gifts Alden a tiny silver feather, promising it will bring him luck. As the dream fades, Alden awakens back in his bed, clutching the feather—proof that his magical adventure was real. Excited for what awaits him next, Alden knows that when he dreams again, another grand adventure will begin.
