In the heart of a dense and ancient forest stood an enormous, twisted tree known only as the Tree of Forgotten Dreams.
It was said that whenever someone abandoned a dream, a leaf would grow on its branches.
Legends claimed that anyone who dared climb the tree and retrieve their leaf could reclaim their forgotten dreams.
