He let out a short, surprised laugh. The drawing, a simple sketch of a rabbit wearing a tiny hat and carrying a miniature suitcase, sent a jolt of pure happiness through him. It was Jumbles, his childhood companion, and now he was alive again, through his great-nephew's imagination.

He rubbed his hands together, unable to stop smiling. He felt the tension melt away, replaced by an expansive feeling.

"Jumbles?" he asked, his voice barely a whisper.

His great-nephew, Ethan, nodded, his eyes sparkling. "He's going on an adventure!" He felt a surge of warmth within his chest.
