The Guard Of Garden

In a time before time, a garden of wonders flourished under the guard of a maiden named Havilah.Havilah, whose name means "Little Bird," is a fierce and beautiful protector sworn to defend the Emperor's magnificent garden. Her duty is to expel every evil weed and dangerous creature sent to destroy the garden's source of magic: a clear blue glass sundial. She guards it with her life, for if the sundial breaks, the garden's enchanting loveliness will be lost forever.When the Emperor's courtiers decide to build a sturdy wooden shelter around the sundial for its protection, the citizens rejoice. But Havilah alone fears the cost of this new defense. Though the shelter keeps invaders out, it also blocks the sun's rays, preventing the dial from tracing the true light that gives the garden its life.As the garden's brilliance slowly fades into dullness, Havilah discovers a heartbreaking truth: her own strength is tied to the magic she protects. This is a timeless fable about the delicate balance between safety and beauty, the unseen consequences of good intentions, and the true source of wonder in our world.A beautifully told, thought-provoking children's fairytale that will resonate with readers young and old.
