Dev, try this jam.

I'm going out, Ni, ask Juju?
His tongue is better than mine.

- Morning, sir.
- Good Morning, Manju.

Juju! Is a leopard chasing you?!

Good morning.

Spring of 1989.

A time no one can forget.

35 years have since passed
in these Indian Himalayas.

These timeless mountains have witnessed an eternity.

But for all of us who worked there
in the Theen-Pahad Orchards

our lives changed forever.

- How long are you home from school?
- The entire summer break!

Surprised?!

You’ve gone nuts?
Looks like college has made you quite mad!

- Shyamji, why didn’t you call?
- She told me to keep shut.

Hello Manju da!

You’re here finally.

No worries, I’ll carry it.

Vanu, you look good.
Did you ask Shyam ji not to call?

Yes!

- Where did you call him from?
- Hostel phone.

Where's the brat?

Vanu, you must be hungry.
I’ll make you breakfast?

Not hungry, Mumma!
Where’s dad?!

Mumma, sing please?

It’s been a while.

And I’m getting quite lost in the crickets.

You can do a harmony.

Ok, which song?

Jhim jhim?

Sing Shivoham! I love that one.

Shivoham...

I am not the mind,

nor the ego.

I am not my five senses,

my eyes, ears or my touch.

I am not made of space,
or the earth,

nor of fire nor wind.

I am pure, eternal bliss.

I am He, the spirit of Shiva.

I am pure, eternal bliss.

I am He, the spirit of Shiva.

Our apples will be plentiful this season!

Good morning!

Have all the goods arrived?

Pesticide spraying starts tomorrow.

We'll start with the North Wing,
and finish all four wings in a month.

The others are on their way?

Warm welcome to all new and old workers.

You all have our trust.

You have to mix 10ml of pesticide
in 20 litres of water.

As the Manager,
it was my job to train all the workers.

This 5000 acre fruit orchard spread across
three whole mountains

was the largest orchard of the time.

We grew apples, peaches, apricots, and plums.

Dev Sir had inherited the orchards from his grandfather,

who was gifted the property after decades of service
to the British during the colonial period.

Every March, the orchards would bloom.

By May, the trees would be so full of fruit,
that even the air would smell sweet.

This was a place of harmony.

Childhood was filled with joy.

There was no difference between anyone,
regardless of their background.

The silent white peaks
would watch from a distance,

whispering their secrets
to whoever would listen.

Every morning I opened the door
towards those mountains.

We believe that the mountains
aren't just a part of this earth,

but a sacred land,
with an ancient soul.

Every tree, every plant was like a child to us.

And we felt proud seeing them grow

bigger and stronger every year.

This was a peaceful land

but the minds of men

need just the slightest nudge.

Plant the spring onions in a line.

- Like this, ma'am?
- Yes.

Alex, Jack come!

Ju, where is Dad?

Where's Manju the gardener.
I wanted help with the saplings!

He’s horse riding with Vanya.

If you see them,
ask him to come here quickly.

Alex! Jack!

Swooping is the most fun.

When you dive straight down,
your tummy is full of butterflies.

I don’t want butterflies
inside my tummy!

It's not real Juju,
it's just a feeling.

Oh, I forgot to tell you,
a hawk came again today.

He was sleepy, but I was sleepy too,
so it was okay.

Invite him for dinner tomorrow!

I think he has other plans.

Tell him I’m asking.

Go ask him yourself!

- Ju, where are you going?
- I'm going to A-block!

But I'm going to D-block!

- Don’t let them jump on the porch furniture!
- Got it!

Dev, so late!

Juju! Come fast.

Bring a pencil sharpener from your room.

- Tea still hot?
- Should be warm.

What happened?

One of the trees seem sick.

Need to prune off the bad branches.
It'll probably recover.

The sharpener is not here.
I’ll bring the blade?

Check the drawer.

I checked, Mumma.
it’s not there!

Bring the blade, then.

Nice.

Dad, are you going to the outhouse?

Depends on who’s asking.

Show me the new wings?

Excuse me, madam.
Scoot!

They look a lot like the last pair.
Just wider and narrower.

Well, I used to have two layers of feathers,

but now I have three more tightly packed.

It has helped increase the lift.

I managed to make them lighter.
I used to use elm earlier-

You were up much higher too!

- Is that because of the feathers or the wood?
- A bit of both.

It feels much more natural this way...
but it’s not perfect.

These new ones depend
quite a lot on the wind.

What if the wind changes
and you wobble and hit a tree?

Come on.

Come on, Scarlet.
Let's go.

He was not saying anything
and I heard his voice

inside my head!

Yes, exactly!

I didn’t knowingly close my eyes,
it just happened!

I swear to God, I just melted!

I think I see one there...

next to Betelgeuse?

- Where? Below it?
- There.

I can see it clearly,
it can't be the faintest star.

What about that one there?
Just below Venus.

I don't see anything!

Ju, don't make it up.

Where’s Vanya?

She said she’s coming.

Vanya!

Coming.

- Have you agreed on the faintest?
- What were you doing?

Nothing important.

- Wow. They are bright today!
- The sky opened up.

It's all about the clouds?

It’s not about the clouds,
it's about the changing season.

Nothing's happening. Enjoy it.

Look! I got one!

Right there!

Stop! Stop!

Dev Sir just called me.
He wants you at D-Block.

- Now?
- Immediately!

- Sir?
- It's just these five trees.

But there’s no fire in the pine trees above.

A few days ago,

this tree was already burnt.

But then...

I didn’t tell anyone.
I wanted to wait and watch.

I see.

Mohan...

Does anyone in Mool Gaon
still have a problem with our pesticides?

Not at all!
Even the elders of Mool Gaon accept the pesticides now.

And I really don’t think anyone has the guts to...

I mean...

Is anyone angry about anything?

No Sir. Everything is fine.

Good afternoon, sir.

Ganesh?

- Finished the area above J-block?
- Yes, sir.

Good afternoon, sir.

All good?

Why don’t you pour yourself some?

- I don’t think so.
- Really?

- More?
- Enough!

It’s the path that I enter the orchard from, Doc.

I think whoever is doing it

chose those trees because they want me to see.

Then it’s probably someone who knows you,
because they need to know your path.

True.

But it isn’t the hardest thing to find out.

Dinner is ready.

Himanshu, "Rhododendron".
Can you say it?

Rhodo - dendron.

Rhododendron.

Let's go!

Hey! Wait!

- Ju!
- Where you off to?

Look at that.

Daddy!

- Get out.
- What’re you doing?!

Mumma, give me some!

- Don't be on the phone!
- Ju this will fall!

Sis!

Not today!
Not in this room!

Hi Alex! Hi Jack!

- Manju da!
- Juju.

Can you stand on one foot?

Now salute!

Oh my god!
I think it's a leopard!

There's a leopard!

Hi...

New faces?
They were looking at the house!

New workers of the Gupta Estate.

They may not know about the oak path.
I’ll make sure they get word.

- How was yesterday?
- All fine.

The spraying workers seem innocent.

Most have worked with us for years.

All the new workers are their close relatives.

I don't think they had anything to do with it.

So what’s next?

I’ll go to Mool Gaon to investigate and
send Keshav and Jeewan to Anheli Village.

We can send Ganesh and Dinesh
to Sahastal.

Tell them to be alert.

Our conversation was cut short
by an unexpected phone call.

There was a death in the village.

Keshav’s uncle had died suddenly that morning.

It was an opportunity to observe the crowd,
so I left for his funeral.

Soon enough, I felt something amiss.

It seemed like there was talk about me
and the Theen-Pahad orchards.

It was only later I found out,

that some of our pesticide backpacks
were found under the dead man's bed.

Because of superstitions, some of the workers
didn’t want to take the backpacks home.

So they stored them in the old man's house.

An old woman started shouting hysterically,

blaming his death on the “poison” from the pesticides.

And now he's dead!

Good evening, Sir.

"Rich man" must be going to the village to
meet Keshav.

Sorry I’m late, my darling.

I’m happy to see you, too!

- Listen, go and make some tea!
- Keshav, please don’t worry.

Is it sweet enough?

Sir...

We'll investigate the burnt trees tomorrow.

I’m just here to offer my condolences.

But Sir, how can we let this happen?

Since Mohan Sir told me,
I haven’t been able to sleep.

It’s so strange.

Keshav, I was wondering

if a few of you can watch the orchards at night?

Of course!
I was just about to suggest it myself!

I'll watch D-block,
and find out who else is willing.

- I’ll pay you all for the trouble.
- We cannot accept that!

This is our job.

We will do anything to help you.

Tell Radha the tea was lovely.

Listen...

Go outside and wash up.

Can I wash up in the morning?

He’s scared.

I went with the dead body.
The boys followed without permission.

What is there to be scared of?

When the funeral pyre is lit,

it is lovely for the one who has passed...
like a nice warm bath.

Don't they feel pain?

Dummy, how can a dead body feel pain?

Is your homework done?

- I’ll finish it in the morning.
- You never wake up!

Finish it now.

While your brother does his homework,

I'll tell you a fable.

Do you know what a soul is?

What we pray to in the temple?

Nope.

Let me ask you...

Can you see your own back?

Nah.

Try harder.

Not happening?

Souls are just like that.

They are inside us,

it’s just that we can’t see them.

Come now.

This story is about a family,

who looked just like us.

But in reality,
they were special souls.

Tell me,
what made them so special?

They were fairies!
From the Fairy World.

How can fairies look like us?

That’s what the story is about!

Was their skin blue,
like the gods?

But they weren’t gods!

They were people like us.

But they came to earth from another world.

A beautiful world,

deep in the galaxy,

where there was no birth or death.

These beings loved roaming around the universe.

One day...

they were out for a stroll in the stars,

when they stumbled upon our Earth.

White wisps of cloud, sparkling blue water...

and forests so green,

they couldn’t resist a peek.

They came closer,

and closer.

Suddenly, the Earth swallowed them up!

Just like...

a big frog eats flies!

They were trapped!

The Earth made them forget all
about their real home.

Their cycle of birth and death began.

Just like us.

All across the universe,

their real family searched tirelessly for them.

It is said that they are still searching for them.

When their family finally finds our Earth,
they will disguise themselves

and remind them of their true nature.

When the fairies finally get that message,

they would all return to
their Fairy World together.

He’s asleep.

I stopped the pesticide spraying for a day,

so that we could investigate
in the surrounding villages.

I went to Mool Gaon myself.

Hello, neighbors.

- Are you angry with us?
- Not at all.

Wherever you spray pesticides,
bad things happen.

Even fires can start!

Don’t use pesticides!

I heard all kinds of stories from the elderly.

I have seen what I have seen!
And that is many things!

Eyes that were huge and red!

Did you see a PERSON start a fire?

Well, no. I didn't see it start at all.

After a day of talking,
I learned nothing useful.

The women seemed innocent,
or at least pretended to be.

Keshav and Jeewan went to Anheli Village.

An evil witch did it!
She lives in the pine woods!

But when the boys went on to describe an “evil witch”,
Keshav got upset.

Ganesh and Dinesh went to Sahastal,

and returned smelling of rum.

But they did report something

that made me stop and think.

Horse nomads!
Where are you coming from?!

Hey! Where are you from?

Are you deaf?

This isn’t Triun.
Are you lost?

They must have started the fires!
Why don't they respond?!

They are the culprits!

Let me get them!

Their people don't speak at all.

They are meditators.

We’ll go to their camp,
and find out what’s really going on.

Dev Sir!

Greetings!

Good day, Mr. Singh.

When I heard about the fires,
I came quickly.

I think this matter is very serious.

But don’t worry Sir!

I will catch the criminals
and throw them in jail!

Why did you bother yourself?
We could have spoken on the phone.

These fires are a terrible thing!

I won't allow it in my area.

I was thinking of calling in the Town Police.

No, no...

What?

The Patwari (Sheriff) has come over, right?

So?

Similar small fires happened

in my village a few years ago.

Similar how?

Small fires were starting
around the village houses.

No one knew how.

But many suspected that our Patwari
and his men were responsible.

They wanted to create distrust
amongst the villagers

so that fights would occur

and they would take bribes
to “mediate” the conflicts.

Mr. Singh wouldn’t dare.

I don’t trust the local authorities.

Not just me,
my entire village doesn't!

Talk less, work more.

Stay alert, old man!

It's 3am. My eyes are shutting.

Is something there?

Nothing at all.

Vaish, i just can't stop-

Where are you going?

If Mumma asks,
tell her I’ve gone to brush Scarlet for a while.

The next few days,
nothing happened.

I resumed spraying on Tuesday.

In the meantime,

I tried to find out more about the horse nomads,
just in case.

I asked the gatekeeper of the Gupta Estate.

Everyone told me the same thing:

the horse nomads were peaceful souls
and could never do any harm.

- How were they?
- Calm as usual.

They are ancient people.

- Did they seem suspicious?
- No, no.

I didn’t pursue it any further.

The Patwari spoke on the phone for hours,
building lies upon lies,

boasting about his long list of suspects.

He didn't have a clue about the case.

He just wanted to impress Dev Sir. That's all.

Congratulations to the village cheif's daughter!

What a celebration!

- My drink is almost over.
- Worry not!

Round 2 has arrived!

Now we're talking!

The party is over.

- Really?
- It’s over, man.

Are you sure?

I’ll head home then.

- Hello?
- It's Mohan. Sorry to wake you!

But the whole East Wing is burning!

It started in the pine above D-Block!

How far up the hill?

Near the border where trees are dense.

Heavy wind is spreading it fast!

- Where are you calling from?

Run faster!

It’s Dev Sir's car!

Run! Run!

Get in, quick!

But we’re almost there!

Don’t be stupid,
get in the back!

Come in the front as well.

Did any of you see anything?

Nothing, sir.

- Which wing were you guarding tonight?
- The South Wing, sir.

Did you leave the alcohol behind?
Or is it still in your pockets?

No, sir.

Idiots!

Why are all you fools running up?

Cut a fireline down here!

Some of you come down!
We need a fireline here!

Faster, boys!

Be careful, guys!

Make a fireline here!

About 30-40 feet away!

Is it reducing?!

Come back!

Come back! Focus on the line here!

Quickly, boys!

Oh! Look out!

Get back!

The tree is falling!

When I saw an orange sky in the distance,
I was scared.

I hoped the fire was not in our orchards.

But it was.

Pooran, get the water.

Call the others.

The fire started in the pine above D-block,

and broke out into the orchards.

We fought the flames for hours,

but the fire was finally stopped

by the natural fireline of the road.

Take this.
Give it to the injured.

I went to the nearest house
to organise some food,

and brought it to the exhausted workers.

They needed it badly.

Oh no!

Did you trip?

Some workers were injured.

Keshav and I dressed the wounds.

And just when things seemed better,

the cops arrived.

It was difficult to read Sir's mind
at that moment.

I tried to explain everything to
the Patwari and Superintendent.

We tried to investigate but-

The workers looked on in distrust.

Everything was topsy-turvy.

It was hard to decide whom to believe,
whom not to.

I am going to scan the area with the manager.

Question all the workers.

I want at least 5 arrests regardless!

Go!

On their request,
I took the two idiots around the burnt area,

even though I knew
they would be totally useless.

- Bacchi came running down.
- How many of you?

What’s your name?

Ganesh

Are you happy with your salary?

Same as always.

- What’s your name?
- Dinesh.

- Do you smoke?
- Yes.

- Do you smoke in the estate?
- No, never.

- Once in a while?
- Very rarely.

We told you we had nothing to do with it.

But maybe you did!

Grab this arrogant fool!

Don’t touch me.
I’ll come myself.

- What’s your name, friend?
- Bachiram.

- Tell us who started this fire?
- Not us.

- Who then?
- A hawk started it.

- A hawk started it?
- The nomads have tamed them.

Come with us.

Don’t worry.

- So how exactly would a hawk start a fire?
- They've been trained.

So they've been trained?

- They drop flaming pine cones and fires start!
- I see.

All of you got drunk at the wedding

and then for kicks,
start fires in the orchards?!

We just put the fire out, you buffoons!

Cuss at us?!

You morons think this is a joke?

- Let him go!
- Shut it!

I’ve been working here for 20 years.

- I’ve earned Dev Sir’s trust.
- So rest in prison for a while.

We didn’t do anything!

Shut it!

Back up!

Don't act smart with us!
Get in there!

But we’re innocent!
You must believe us.

Dev Sir!

This is Mr. Rajendra Pal Singhji!

- I’ll be there in a minute.
- If you say so.

They are arresting some of them.

Saying they'll lock them up
until someone speaks up.

What should we do?

Allow it, or interfere?

They’re taking Keshav too?

Yes.

Should we stop them?

Yes. Send him here.
I want to speak to him.

Just a minute.

- Dev Sir asked for him specifically?
- Yes.

Don't fret.
Speak openly.

Sir...

I don’t know how we missed it.
When we saw it, it was already out of control.

This fire started in the
pine above D-block, correct?

It started very high up.

We didn’t see anything.

- And heard nothing?
- Nothing at all.

- And you couldn’t control it?
- We tried, but it spread too fast.

Weren’t you at the wedding yesterday?

No, no. We left the wedding early.

Were Ganesh and Dinesh at their post?

I'm not sure.
I left the wedding early.

They would have reached the North Wing.

The North Wing?

If you were the only people confirmed in the area,

how can I know one of you didn’t start it?

Sir?

How can I be sure that you didn’t start it?

Is someone trying to threaten me?

Does someone want something from me?

These orchards are our life.

This is our livelihood.
We would never-

Listen carefully now.

Tell everyone in the village
that the orchards are closed.

Please believe me.
None of us did this!

Each one of us-

Not only are the orchards closed.
I’m also holding all salaries.

I don’t want to see anyone in the orchards anymore.

Heard me loud and clear?

Scram!

We lost our jobs because of you!

Worthless swines!

Leave these lands!

If you return, we’ll break your bones.

Why didn’t you tell me about the fire?
We were home the entire day!

It’s been a hectic day, Vanya.

But that’s not important.

What’s important is,
that all of us are together now.

Mumma and I think you and Juju
should stay at home for the next few days.

Which means...

No riding, no walks.

Dad, isn’t it time you started
treating me like an adult?

When you handle me so carefully,
I hate it!

If you weren’t running around
or locked in your room-

I'm home after an entire year at the hostel.

With so many rules.

Atleast at home I can be a little bit-

The Patwari (Sheriff) is after me.

He wants to take over
the orchard-watch himself.

I told him only Dev Sir can decide that.

He said he tried to reach you several times,
but couldn't.

Let everyone do as they please.

I don't trust anyone anymore.

So what difference does it make
who is out there watching the orchards?

I know.

Okay.

Goodnight.
[Disconnects phone]

Dev!

- Come quick!
- What?

- Quick, come.
- What happened?

Dev, come quick!

I just saw a Blue-throated Barbet.

So close to the house!

More bad news?

Who’s there?

Sir! Did something happen?

There was another fire last night.

In which part of the orchards?

- Not in the orchards.
- In the pine, then?

- Should I get the jeep out?
- Listen, first.

The fire wasn't in the pine.

Where then?!

It was in our front yard.

The front yard?!

All the Thuja bushes are burnt.

Just the stubs remain.

Only the Thuja bushes?

Where were Jack and Alex?

Madam sleeps light.

And she didn’t hear them barking at all.

This means that whoever it was,

the dogs knew them well.

I'll sleep on the porch
and guard the house myself.

Mohan, I was thinking...

Take leave for a few days.

The orchards are closed.
There is no work.

- What about the Patwari and others?
- I’ll manage them.

If I need anything, I’ll call.

I’ll be back later.
Lock your door on the outside,

so I’ll know that you’ve left.

Manju da!

- Manju da, madam asked me to leave.
- She told me to leave, too.

- But we haven't done anything.
- We'll try talking to her.

I suspect the horse nomads.
They moved near our stables just yesterday.

They would never.
They are saintly people who do no harm.

But their camp is now next to our stables!

Sir?

Dad! What are you doing?

Not now please, Juju.

A jeep is here.

Uncle.

The food is lovely Nandini, thank you.

Hope it's ok.

Usually we have more variety
but the help is on leave.

So, the kids and me,
we cooked it up.

Then I must compliment you, too.

Juju say, thank you.

If I'm not mistaken, Nandini,
you sing, don't you?

I don't like my old home any more.

The land of the Enlightened

is the most beautiful.

But no one goes or comes from there.

There is no sun or moon there.

No wind nor water.

Who will take my yearning heart there?

- That’s my walkie?
- Yes, Sir.

- And Dev’s?
- Good morning Sir.

Good morning, Dev.

Dev, this is your walkie.

To speak with me press this.

Check it out.

Mr. Singh is here.
I've told him to wait at the car.

I introduced myself to him.

He’s ready to take us to the village.
Shall we?

- Colonel, you don't need me?
- I just want to listen to them.

If I need anything I’ll connect.

Meanwhile, I'm sending
Toby and Bhagirath to Ajnapur.

To let them know we are here
and working.

Have a good day.

- How far is the walk?
- Not too far.

- Is there a route by road?
- No, this is the only way in.

Personally, I suspect Keshav.

The thing about him is...

They see him as their leader.

- Will he be there now?
- I certainly hope so!

How are you, ladies?

Follow me.

Keshav!

Keshav!

Where’s your husband?

I'll fetch him.

You cheat!

How dare you!

Patwari (Sheriff) is here.

There are other men with him.

- Who else is with him?
- They look like officers.

There he is.

That's our guy.

Good morning, Sir.

I am happy to speak to you,

but to this man,
I won't say a word.

What was that?!

Disrespectful twat!

Singhji, please wait in the jeep.

I’m at a loss for words.

Two weeks ago,
everything was great.

Then suddenly we all lost our jobs.

Many of us were arrested.

Some of us were beaten, too.

But why were you arrested?

Every night, we watched the orchards diligently.

But one night there was a wedding party…

Who the hell are you guys?

The Patwari is a corrupt piece of shit.

- We’re here to help.
- We don’t want your help!

Keshav, get these fools to listen.

Tell them to go after the nomads!

- Stop troubling us.
- Don't raise your voice!

The horse nomads are the real culprits!

Where's your walkie, Dev?

Sorry, I just came out to use a tool.

There are outsiders camped in the woods,
above your stables.

(Inaudible)

Hanu, get Dev on the walkie.

Colonel for Bhagirath, over.

New priority.
We are now searching 4-5 men with horses.

Last seen near the estate stables.

Dad!

There’s a fire in the North Wing!

What?!

- How do you know?
- I saw it!

I could only see the smoke.
It seemed like the North Wing!

- Why the hell were you riding there?
- I'm so sorry! I couldn't help going out.

We’ll talk about it later.

What happened Vanu?

All of you stay put.
Ni, don’t let these two out of your sight.

- Dad!
- Where this time Dev?!

Vanya, what the hell is going on?!

There's the fire!

Sis! Please come outside?

Want to play Sets?
I challenge you!

Maan Singh!
All under control?

- Under control, Sir.
- Good!

Dev, these extra men were useful.

More men would help even more.

I want to build a perimeter around the area.

I've sent Bhagirath to the top.

He is to manage any secondary fires.

Then we will all go and put out
any secondary fires.

You can decide if you want to
come or...

Colonel Sir!

Toot Singh! Thank you for returning.

How long for the Ajnapur Police to arrive?

Within an hour or two.

So much burnt!
Where were you idiots sleeping?!

Half the hill has burned down!

You okay, Dev?

I’m fine... thank you.

Nobody's at home.
You should head back.

I’ll soon have men
to take care of things here.

No I will stay back,
no problem.

No I insist.

We’ll soon have things under control.
My men are all over it.

Sir! I can see smoke rising from the West!

Ni, are you ok?

Mmm. You?

Ni, I know you won't like this-

[Indistinct yelling]

Dev! Just listen.

Pack your things!
We are going to your Grandparents’.

Juju wrap this up and come upstairs.

- For how long, mumma?
- 3-4 days.

Bring your things.

- Dad, where is your suitcase?
- I'm not coming, Vanya.

I'll join you in a couple of days.

We’re not going without you!

Colonel will take care of the fires!

Where’s Mr. Mohan?

- Vanya get inside the car!

Go, go.

Come on Juju!

Drive safe.

[Indistinct instructions]

Sir, right top.

Granny is getting us some milk.

Hello?

Morning.

What's going on?

It's okay.
What's happening now?

24th April, 1989.

That was the last day the family
was seen in the area.

Inside the outhouse there was a letter
written and signed by Sir himself.

- Mumma, where are we going?
- We're going home!

He had dissolved the entire estate,

and distributed the land back to the villagers
who had owned it before Colonial times.

The letter also contained a line,

that brought me to tears when I read it.

The family house and it's surroundings...

were now mine.

Speculation in the villages was endless,

but most of them believed that their disappearance

had a deep and magical significance.

And so, when anyone spoke of the family,

it was the old fable
that returned to their lips.

The fable of fairies.

Fairies who accidentally got stuck in our world,

until their real family
found a way to remind them,

of who they really are.

Fables are usually just stories,

but this one time

I knew...

it was the hidden truth.
