Liam starts walking comfortably and happily, but soon he faces a wall. The wall blocks his path, and when he turns his head to the bottom right, he sees small golden rocks. Amazed by their beauty, he examines them closely. Then, he looks at the wall, takes two steps back, and throws one of the rocks at it. Surprisingly, the small rock makes a huge impact on the wall, but as soon as it strikes, it turns to dust.

He touches the dust on the floor, feeling the impact it created, and is both confused and impressed. Eagerly, he rushes to gather more rocks. He throws a second one; however, this one barely leaves a mark. Confused, he looks back at the wall. Taking another rock, he changes his posture, taking more time and care than before. This one makes an impact, but not as significant as the first.

Undeterred, he throws another rock, then another, and another. Each time, they only leave small marks. Eventually, he runs out of rocks, feeling disappointed and tired. He sits on the floor, sadness washing over him as he stares at the ground in despair. Suddenly, he hears a bird. It’s distant, but he can still hear its song. He looks up and sees the bird flying around before it lands on a nearby rock.

Curious, he begins to walk toward it, but as he nears, the bird flies away. A little disappointed, he looks down and notices the rock the bird had been perched on. Immediately, he starts digging around it, managing to lift it despite its weight. He brings the rock in front of the wall, takes hold of it with both hands, and places it between his legs.

With determination, he begins to move up and down to create momentum and then throws it with all his energy. The impact is massive, and he is impressed, proud, and happy. All the little rocks now seem useless compared to this one. He sees that the impact created a small hole, allowing him to glimpse what lies behind the wall.

Walking slowly, he lowers his eye to the level of the hole. He peers through but can only make out a blurry view. The dust and the light make it hard to see clearly. Motivated, he looks down and starts searching for other similar rocks everywhere. He returns to where he found the first one, but all he sees is the mark left by it. He can’t find any more rocks. Remembering the bird, he grows tired and disappointed again, sitting down and staring at the ground until he eventually falls asleep.

When he wakes up, he brushes the dust from his face and finds himself still facing the wall. Anger bubbles up as he looks at it, and in frustration, he starts punching the wall, but only hurts himself. Tears stream down his face as he turns his back to the wall and sinks to the floor in despair.

Then he hears the bird again—it’s the same one, and now he notices him clearly. His blue and yellow feathers glisten as he sings. Turning back to the wall, he notices something he hadn’t seen before: a crack. His earlier impact had created a crack! Intrigued, he steps closer, examining the crack and the wall. After a moment of contemplation, he raises his leg and kicks the wall.

Half of the wall crumbles away, and blinding light floods in as he steps onto the rocks and begins to walk forward.
