The Enchanted Mirror

Once upon a time, in a little village bright, Ella found a mirror that shimmered with light. It was no ordinary glass; it held a mystic charm, revealing the truth, keeping all safe from harm. With her heart full of wonder, she stood with a grin, ready to gaze into the reflections within.
