This is a bedtime story inspired by an ancient Chinese legend about an emperor who discovers the enchanting song of a nightingale in his palace gardens. The emperor is captivated by the nightingale's pure and heartfelt melodies. However, when a bejeweled mechanical bird is gifted to the court, the emperor and his followers are enamored by its glitz and perfect tune. The real nightingale, feeling unappreciated, disappears back into the forests. The sleepy tale explores the timeless dichotomy between true art and artificial creations that may appear beautiful but lack depth.
