Lupo the Wolf was born under the shadow of the Colosseum, his fur silver like moonlight on Roman marble. Each night, he wandered the city’s winding streets, sensing echoes of old stories in every arch and fountain. One evening, while exploring the ruins of the Roman Forum, Lupo stumbled upon a mosaic map hidden beneath a broken pillar. The map shimmered with golden runes, pointing to secrets lost for centuries. Eager to learn more, Lupo followed the clues: past ancient baths, under the Pantheon’s dome, and through the catacombs where friendly mice whispered forgotten tales. Along the way, Lupo gathered a band of companions—a clever sparrow, a wise tortoise, and a tiny bat named Mina. Together, they unlocked riddles and shared laughter. Their journey led them deep beneath Rome, where they discovered a glowing crystal shaped like a wolf’s paw. With a howl, Lupo awoke the spirit of an old she-wolf who had once protected the city’s founders. She blessed the friends for their courage, promising that Rome’s true magic was its ability to bring hearts together, no matter how much time had passed. At dawn, Lupo and his friends emerged, the city radiant with new mysteries to discover—and the promise that friendship was the greatest secret of all.
