The river had always been sacred to the villagers, its waters winding through the land like an ancient script only the heavens could read. Every spring, they gathered at its banks to offer thanks, hoping for a season of balance and prosperity.

One morning, as the mist clung to the surface, a great turtle emerged from the depths. Its shell, dark and glistening, bore strange markings—lines and dots arranged in a pattern that seemed too perfect to be random. The elders stepped forward, their eyes widening in recognition.

"The river has given us a sign," one whispered.

The wisest among them studied the markings, tracing the lines with weathered fingers. "This is more than a sign," he said. "It is a way of understanding the harmony that binds the world."
