In A Household Where Favoritism Cast A Long Shadow, Two Sisters Lived Vastly Different Lives. Emily, Diligent And Kind, Was Burdened With All The Chores, While Her Sister, Emma, Was Lazy And Coddled By Their Mother. One Day, A Startled Rooster Caused Emily To Drop Her Precious Cross-Stitch Into A Deep Well. In A Desperate Attempt To Retrieve It, She Tumbled In After It.

Instead Of Darkness, Emily Found Herself In A Magical Garden. Her Innate Helpfulness Led Her To Aid A Struggling Rabbit With A Carrot And To Revive A Wilting Rose With Water. Her Journey Led Her To The Home Of A Mysterious But Kind Woman Named Holly, Who Offered Her Shelter. Holly's Only Request Was That Emily Cover Her Bed With Feathers Each Morning. Emily, With No Other Way Home, Agreed And Diligently Performed Her Daily Task, Earning Delicious Meals In Return.

Though Cared For, Emily Eventually Grew Homesick. Understanding Her Longing, Holly Led Her To A Magnificent Golden Door. As Emily Passed Through, She Was Showered In Gold, Her Clothes Transformed, And Her Lost Cross-Stitch Returned To Her Hands. She Reappeared At Home, Her Sudden Fortune Stunning Her Mother And Sister. Emily Explained That Her Reward Was The Result Of Her Hard Work And Kindness In Holly's Service.

Consumed By Greed, The Mother Forced Emma To Replicate The Journey. Emma Deliberately Threw A Cross-Stitch Into The Well And Jumped In. In The Enchanted Garden, However, Her Selfishness Showed; She Refused To Help The Rabbit Or The Rose. Upon Meeting Holly, She Was Given The Same Task As Her Sister. After A Single Day Of Effort, Emma's Laziness Took Over, And She Neglected Her Duties, Allowing The House To Fall Into Disarray.

Displeased, Holly Declared It Was Time For Emma To Leave. Expecting Riches, Emma Was Led To The Golden Door. But As She Stepped Through, A Torrent Of Mud Poured Over Her, A Direct Consequence Of Her Sloth. She Returned Home Not In Gold, But In Filth, A Testament To Her Poor Efforts.

The Harsh Lesson Was Not Lost On Emma. Humbled By The Experience, She Finally Understood The Value Of Diligent Work. From That Day On, She Joined Her Sister, And Together They Worked Hard, Finding Happiness And Success In Their Shared Efforts.
