The opal is October's birthstone, but do you know how it was made? Well, get comfy and cozy for tonight's romantic fairy tale bedtime story. You may not get the answers you seek, but I promise you're in for an emotional rollercoaster of a fairytale.

The sun was shining brightly one day, and a little Sunbeam slid down his long golden ladder, and crept unperceived under the leaves of a large tree. All the Sunbeams are in reality tiny Sun-fairies, who run down to earth on golden ladders, which look to mortals like rays of the Sun. The fairy of the Moon is a woman, and all her beams are tiny women, who come down on the loveliest little ladders, like threads of silver. No one knows why the Sun and Moon quarreled. Once they were very good friends. But now they are bitter enemies, and the Sunbeams and Moonbeams may not play together.

Need a story to calm you mind? You've come to the right place! Join me for tonight's romantic tragic fairytale bedtime story. "The Story of the Opal," is read in a soft voice and set to some light and soft background music. I do hope you enjoy the this evening's soothing and comforting asmr reading.
