Narrator: One foggy night, Tomas heard a sound. Not a ship. Not the wind. A low, sad song. Whale: [softly] Hello? I can't find my family. The fog is too thick. Tomas: A whale! Don't worry, little one. My light can cut through any fog. Narrator: So Tomas turned the great lamp toward the open sea, round and round, all night long. Narrator: And just before morning, far away, three big songs answered. Whale: That's them! Thank you, lighthouse keeper! Narrator: And every year after, on the foggiest night, the whales came back to sing goodnight to Tomas. Want your own version? The AI writes a fresh script and casts a voice for every speaker.
