قصه

یکی‌ بود یکی‌ نبود، غیر از خلأ هیچی‌ نبود. قصهٔ ما از اونجایی شروع میشه که پیروز، پسر بهروز و مهبانو، داشته جلوی خونش که وسط یه جنگل قرار گرفته بود بازی میکرده، که یه مرتبه یه سیرنگ از آسمون سرازیر میشه و تو یه چشم بهم زدن با نوکش یقهٔ پیرهن اونا میگیره و پیروز رو از زمین بلند میکنه و پرواز کنون به سمت لونش تو کوه قاف میره.ا
