Ela was a child living in a village very close to the Duru Forest. She loved the forest very much and dreamed of spending time there at every opportunity. One morning, Ela noticed that her grandmother was missing. Her grandmother always told her how important and magical the forest was. Ela thought that her grandmother might have gone somewhere in the forest and decided to find her.

Ela remembered the little bird Yelken that her grandmother had told her about. The sail was known as the sign of the guardians of the forest, and if Ela saw this bird, she should know that she was on the right path. Deciding to enter the forest bravely, Ela took slow steps.

The forest welcomed Ela as if it was waiting for her. The trees were swaying gently in the wind and the birds were singing happily among the leaves. Suddenly, Ela saw a bright light and the source of the light was a tiny bird flying. It was Yelken! The bird noticed Ela and started to fly for her to follow. Ela decided to follow Yelken.

As the elken bird took Ela deep into the forest, Ela encountered many fascinating creatures in the forest. Fireflies sparkling with many lights, rabbits jumping happily, and tiny fairies dancing among the flowers accompanied her. Everything was peaceful, and Ela was excited to explore this magical world.

Suddenly, a giant creature emerged from a large tree trunk. However, this creature was not scary; on the contrary, it was smiling in a friendly way. It was the wisest being in the forest: the High Shadow. The High Shadow greeted Ela and told her about the secrets of the forest. Ela said that her grandmother was lost and she wanted help to find her. The High Shadow sensed that Ela's heart was pure and good-intentioned, and decided to help her."This forest accepts those who are pure in heart. If you have come with the right intention, I will guide you," the High Shadow said. Ela felt safe in the High Shadow's presence and set off with him into the depths of the forest.
