When the moonbeams stretched like long, sleepy fingers into Fernando's room, the Toy Kingdom woke up. In this magical land lived a brave little knight named Sir Fernando. He was the kindest knight in the whole kingdom, always ready with a helping hand and a silly joke. His most prized possession was a single, shimmering marble that swirled with the colors of a rainbow sunset.

One night, a tiny tin bird fluttered to the castle window with sad news. The Teddy Bear King's grand hall was dark and gloomy. Its magical moonbeam crystal had faded, and none of the teddy bears knew how to smile anymore. Seeing the sadness in the messenger's tiny eyes, Sir Fernando knew he had to help. He carefully tucked his glimmering marble into his pocket, hoping its little light could make a big difference.

Sir Fernando's journey took him across the vast 'Rugged Rug Plains' and through the 'Towering Lego Canyons'. Soon, he found a wobbly robot named Bolt, who was stuck beside a block. "I've lost my whirly-gear!" beeped Bolt sadly. Sir Fernando looked at the robot, then at the block, and with a clever twist, he fit the block right into the empty spot! Bolt wobbled, then zoomed in a happy circle. Sir Fernando's kindness and cheerful fix made Bolt so happy that he decided to join the important quest.

They finally arrived at the Teddy Bear King's castle. It was so quiet and dark inside. The King sat on his throne, looking down at his paws with a great big sigh. All the teddy bears huddled in the shadows. Sir Fernando felt a pang in his heart. He reached into his pocket and felt the smooth, familiar shape of his favorite marble. He loved it so much, but seeing his friends so sad made his decision clear.

With a brave and caring heart, Sir Fernando walked up to the throne. "Your Majesty," he said softly, "please take this. I hope it brings back some light." He placed his beautiful marble on the arm of the throne. A warm, gentle glow instantly filled the room, sparkling in the teddy bears' button eyes. The King gasped with joy, and a small smile spread across his face. A cheer went up through the hall! Sir Fernando realized the warm, happy feeling glowing inside his own chest was brighter than any marble, and that the best light is the kind you share.
