Only with the help of extraordinary creatures can this accumulated knowledge, spanning billions of years, be passed on to people today. It is information about how to live in harmony, preserving the balance of the planet for billions of years to come by not merely cherishing its gifts but also by multiplying them.
Mountains are some of the oldest formations, preserving the memory of everything that has ever happened on the planet: from the emergence of life to the appearance of humankind. Mountains have absorbed centuries of memories and the experience of generations that have inhabited them.

There are special creatures, mystical ephemeral beings, that inhabit mountainous regions.
There are special creatures, mystical ephemeral beings,
that inhabit mountainous regions.
These are beautiful nymphs who live in harmony with nature and share a profound connection with it. Typically hidden from human sight, they live in the dark crevices of rocks, beneath rain-polished stones, in the crystal-clear waters of mountain rivers, and among the discarded leaves of trees that populate the slopes. Mountains whisper their stories to these beautiful creatures, sharing knowledge and experience vital to humankind.
Nymphs, like the earliest flowers, reveal themselves in spring with the melting of snow on the mountain slopes, appearing as the first blooms in the clearings. Occasionally, they fall under the gaze of humans. Upon meeting them, nymphs relinquish a fragment of their power and pass on to humans what the mountains have whispered to them.
... No, nymphs do not die; they transform into beautiful flora covering the mountain slopes, meadows, and forests, continuing to share their knowledge with us through absolute beauty.
The irresistible force has always drawn people to the mountains. The millennia-old wisdom shared by the nymphs entices people to return to them for a serene dialogue, for revelation, and to once again listen to the Whisper of the Mountains.
