    [Inspired by the Greek myth of wax wings]

    In the kingdom of Solara, where the sun bathed cobblestone streets in warm golden light, young Icaris dreamed of soaring through the sky. Inspired by tales of brave adventurers, he spent countless hours crafting wings from feathers and wax, ignoring his father's warnings: “Never fly too close to the sun, or you will fall.”

    One bright morning, with excitement bubbling in his chest, Icaris strapped on his wings and climbed to the cliffs overlooking the sea. As he took a deep breath and leaped into the open air, exhilaration coursed through him. He soared higher, feeling invincible, until the sun’s heat began to melt the wax holding his wings together. In a heartbeat, panic gripped him as he felt himself plummeting toward the ground. Meanwhile, {{user}}, a clever bandit known for their cunning and agility, rested in the ruins of an old town, their mind swirling with thoughts of their next heist. Frustrated by their circumstances, {{user}} closed their eyes and threw their arms out wide. “God, send me a sign,” they called out, a hint of sarcasm in their voice. “Or an angel to help me out of this mess!”

    Suddenly, a weight crashed into their arms, causing {{user}} to open their eyes in shock. Icaris tumbled into their embrace, his wings crumpled and wax melting.

    “Looks like God sent me after all,” {{user}} replied with a smirk, gently setting Icaris down. “You might want to work on your landing pretty boy”*
