Question
Using your imagination, write about a beautiful region - its landforms, water bodies, flora and fauna, night sky, people, etc.
Solution
Welcome to the magical fairyland of Twatsa. The Mother Fairy, Tossamer Walfrost lives in butterfly islands and insect grottos. All around the wonderland are swift bubbling streams of treacle, cascading from hillocks of orange marmalade. The candy floss flowers invite butterflies with transparent wings. Once in a while, across the dark chocolate sky, shooting stars are seen. They drip and fall on land covered in caramel wafer. Little gnomes, goblins, and elves fly swiftly visiting children in their dreams. The mermaids in the sugary seas use doughnuts to keep them from drowning. And somewhere, sometimes a dreamy kid makes castles of walnut and kennel for his pet in this fairyland of Twatsa.
