Summary
In this week's Story Quest... we jump into a magical land of colour!
After meeting a talking cloud named Cumulo, a young girl named Ruby is transported to a vibrant secret kingdom hidden within a rainbow.
She discovers the world is being consumed by "The Grey," a gloom created by people forgetting how to imagine magic and wonder.
Entrusted with a legendary crystal paintbrush, Ruby must find a way to restore the fading colours before her new friends' world vanishes forever.
