The story
Every year, the smallest bird carries the light.
Every year, the smallest bird in the valley carries a spark up the hill to light the great star above the town. This year, that job falls to Ember, a young cardinal who isn't sure she's big enough.
Then the light starts to disappear. A lonely shadowy figure is absorbing it, one glow at a time. Ember can't stop the figure, and she can't outshine him. So she does the one thing nobody expected: she gives away her last spark.
This is a Winston-Salem story, where the Moravian Star hangs on porches every December and the whole Twin City seems to glow. Tanglewood Drone Skytale is our way of sharing this holiday experience with the next generation.
Light can be carried. Light can be given.
Light cannot be kept by taking it from others.
