His steps lead him to a lake that lies at the very heart of the forest. Rays of sunshine pierce the canopy above his head, exploding into billions of glimmering stars on the surface of the water.
The boy can hear so many different sounds that for a moment, he is tempted to close his eyes to take them all in. Everywhere around him is the soft rustle of the wind dancing with the leaves and the tweeting of birds playfully chasing each other. A thin stream running through the rocks throws itself into the lake, creating a melody of droplets and splashes adding up to the music of the forest. Yet, as he draws closer to the water, he realises he can hear something else - something he would not expect to hear in such a place.
