Lana — The Princess of the Mountains
They say life in the mountains is unlike anywhere else. Breathing in the high altitudes, touching the clouds, and hearing the whispers of nature — that’s where Lana lived.
Lana wasn’t an ordinary girl. She lived in a small village called Seran Valley, perched high above the clouds and far from the noise of cities. Her hair was as dark as the night, her eyes deep like a hidden lake, and her laughter — like a stream flowing over stones.
People believed Lana held a secret gift. She could talk to flowers, birds sought her guidance, and when she played her flute by the river, even the wind would pause to listen.
One day, a traveler from the city arrived. His name was Elan, a photographer who had read about Seran Valley in an old forgotten book. When he saw Lana for the first time, it felt like time had stopped.
Lana showed him the hidden paths of the forest, the quiet lakes, and told him stories only the mountains knew. Elan realized Lana wasn’t just a girl — she was the soul of those mountains.
But every story has a turning point.
One evening, Lana said to him:
“You can only see me if your heart truly feels the beauty of nature.”
The next morning, Elan woke up — and Lana was gone. No flute, no laughter. Just a single note that read:
“You saw me because you saw nature with your heart. But some beauty is meant to remain a mystery.”
Even today, Elan visits Seran Valley. He still takes pictures — but the most beautiful one lives only in his memories: Lana.
Let me know if you’d like a second part — maybe Lana returns, or Elan discovers another secret of the mountains.
