On the distant planet Purlieu, a strange kingdom of creatures floats in the sky, and everything here is unlike Earth. The sky is devoid of a sun and moon; instead, countless stars twinkle as if every firefly is whispering, illuminating this dreamlike world.
The first thing that catches the eye is a flying purple duck, gliding through the air with long tentacles waving like those of an octopus. On its back grow vibrant mushrooms, each dotted with patterns resembling the Milky Way, occasionally flickering, sometimes dimming. Whenever the duck spreads its wings, starlight pours from the mushroom caps like raindrops, falling gently to the ground below.
At the head of this kingdom is a small green being, its body surrounded by little red flames. These flames don't burn anything; instead, they warm the surrounding air and emit a soft glow, much like a light, airy cloud floating nearby. Whenever it moves, the red flames dance with the air, as if composing a silent symphony for this strange realm.
Then there is a special mushroom duck, whose body is covered in soft, fluffy fur. Its spots seem like little sprites growing from a dream. The fur sways gently in the breeze, carrying with it a calming, mysterious energy. Each time it flaps its wings, a sweet fragrance fills the air, making every creature that passes by smile involuntarily.
