Rick walked into the grand palace, his eyes widening as he took in the sight of the numerous mirrors that lined the walls. He had always been fascinated by mirrors and the way they seemed to reflect not just our physical appearance but also our inner selves. As he wandered through the room, he stumbled upon a mirror that seemed different from the others - its surface was smooth and unblemished, and it seemed to be calling to him. 'Hello there, young adventurer,' a soft voice spoke from behind him, 'what brings you to this place?' Rick turned to see a cheerful squirrel with a bushy tail and sparkling eyes peeking out from behind a nearby vase.
