The Oracle, an elderly figure with eyes like deep pools of wisdom, sat cross-legged beside the fire, his robes flowing like liquid silver. A Young Kid, wide-eyed and full of curiosity, sat across from him, the flickering flames reflecting in his eager gaze. "Why do the stars shine so brightly?"

"Each star is a story, a beacon of light from the past," the Oracle replied, "They remind us of the vastness of the universe and our place within it." "Are we a part of those stories?" the Young Kid asked, leaning forward with anticipation.

"Indeed," the Oracle said, "Every being is a thread in the grand tapestry of existence. Our actions ripple across time, like stones tossed into a pond." "Can we change the stories?" the Young Kid inquired, "Or are they already written?"

"The universe is ever-changing," the Oracle mused, "While some paths are set, others are forged by our choices. We are both authors and characters in this cosmic play." "I want to write a story of hope," the Young Kid declared, determination lighting his face.

"Then let your actions be your pen," the Oracle advised, "and your heart the ink. The universe will listen and respond in kind." The Young Kid nodded, a newfound understanding settling over him as he gazed up at the infinite sky.
