Moonjar Courtyard
Mira
“A 6-year-old girl, about 1 meter tall, with dusty curls, bright brown eyes, and a small clay bead tucked at her wrist.”
Mira is a quick-eyed child who lives in the courtyard and is just tall enough to rest her chin on the rim of the low water jars. She notices tiny changes other people miss and feels a strong tug to understand how things work, even when everyone else thinks they are ordinary.

Sandstorm at the Gate
A sudden sandstorm piles against one side of Moonjar Courtyard and blocks the only wide exit, but a festival delivery is already on the way inside. The courtyard has to find a safe way to shelter everyone without letting the fresh food and fragile lanterns get crushed.
Mira and the Wandering Water
A small stream of water slips across Moonjar Courtyard in the wrong direction, and Mira notices before anyone else does. As she follows the clue, the ordinary morning begins to reveal a hidden problem in the courtyard’s old channels.
