Psyche

High above a basalt plateau, a sprawling citadel of three hundred towers pierces the clouds, its walls stretching for miles over a kingdom of green valleys, glittering rivers and distant, mist‑shrouded islands. The horizon shifts endlessly—pink, silver, gold—always just out of reach, as if the world itself were a living painting. From its lofty battlements the kingdom spreads like a tapestry of fields, forests and far‑off seas, inviting the imagination to wander beyond its stone confines.

Among the endless towers roams Psyche, the youngest princess, a solitary figure with delicate, butterfly‑like wings that shimmer with crimson, yellow and azure dust. Though her wings glimmer with jeweled eyes, they cannot lift her from the ground, and she spends her days dreaming of soaring like the birds she befriends and exploring the lands below. Her longing to break free from the castle’s stone walls fuels a quiet yearning that fills each sunrise with hope.

When a wandering dove finds refuge in her veil and an unexpected challenge brushes past her, a spark of possibility ignites. The encounter hints at a path that may finally let her test those fragile wings and step beyond the familiar horizon. Listeners will follow Psyche’s first steps toward a world where imagination and courage begin to take flight.
