A single wish floats upon the air...
It hovers over small valleys, over meadows with the sweet scent of summer grass, and interweaves through wild flowers of colours bright...
It rushes through the streaming sunlight, and through dense shadow, it leaves an imprint of itself, wherever it may fly...
The forest it dances through, a green emerald throughout the land, buzzing with life, both in animal and plant forms alike...
All the while, it plays with the sun, the sweet scent of grass, the colours it finds, and the life it finds, because it is a wish, so secret and true, it lies for all this and more...
Everyone adores it, and everyone loves it... It's what keeps them going, and tears them apart...
And for one to wish this for others, it is a blessing and a curse, for it is more powerful than any mortal could understand....
So the wish dances throughout the untouched land, finding the others, and keeping the memories light...
The wish is to make others happy, with the sacrifice of the one who made it...
And because of that, the wild life ran, and the plant life burned...
The grass smelled over-sweet as it faded, and rotted away, and the colours dulled from everything, leaving only fire and black to accompany the wish...
The wish wanted to make the person who made it happy too...
The turmoil was too great, and the rain couldn't come...
So it flew, to the arch where the great room could be entered, but never seen...
And it spoke, and bade the ones inside to hear....
"I'm hurting from your hurt, so please... Let me make it right..."
The rain came soon after, and the wish had grown into a person...
The wish couldn't live if it wanted the place it grew to remain that way, so it gave itself up for the one thing it loved, the person whom gave life to it.
The wish died, and the world was rebuilt...
However, the wish had a child wish, and it grew as well, keeping the wish alive, so that one day...
When the sky turned black, and all that rained was fire...
And all hope seemed lost...
When the one who made the wish fell into shattered pieces again...
That they could save their world, and find peace once again...
"Let me make others happy with what I have, even if it is little, so that I may be happy as well. I love all people, no matter how mad I get, so please let me do right by them, and let them do right by me. I only wish for everyone else to be happy, even if I have to suffer for that happiness."
