Summary

Oranth’s restless spirit is guided by glowing constellations and murmuring waterways when he discovers an ancient star map in his grandmother’s attic. Joined by Liora, a playful river nymph, and Azaran, a curious stargazer, he sails moonlit rivers to sacred banks and soars through starlit skies. Along the way he uncovers global fables—how communities honored celestial heroes, celebrated planting seasons by their rivers, and healed with water’s gentle wisdom. Fables of Stars and Holy Rivers weaves luminous myths and sacred legends into an enchanting tapestry, inviting children to look up and downstream, finding magic in the natural world’s timeless stories.

    Xuanzang and his disciples encountered an enormous python eating all the livestock in Tuoluo Manor. Nothing could be done about the situation. The monkey went to subdue the demon with Pigsy. As soon as the python opened its mouth to devour Pigsy, the monkey jumped in and went into its belly. The villagers were happy that the python was killed. The pilgrims then continued their journey and reached the Mountain of Seven Gifts. The fallen persimmons on the path were so smelly and dirty that they couldn't get past the mountain. Pigsy cleared the road after the villagers fed him enough that he became a massive pig. Finally, the team passed through the mountain.
