High above the waking world, hidden among drifting clouds, lives Citharista, a mysterious dream creature inside a harp grown from twisted branches, moss and delicate threads. Most of the time it sits quietly, listening to the endless sky. But when a storm approaches, its enormous ear catches the first distant movement of the clouds. In this dream world, thunder does not exist. Every flash of lightning makes one of the harp strings tremble, replacing the roar of thunder with deep, strange music. Some notes sound dark and ancient, while others drift lightly through the clouds like forgotten dreams. Citharista never knows what melody the storm will bring. It simply listens and waits. Sometimes, when the storm becomes very strong, the creature gently touches the strings itself and answers the sky. Far below, sleeping people may then hear the music in their dreams, never knowing where it comes from. For above the clouds, thunder does not roar. It sings.
