Poupelle of Chimney Town

As the thick smoke envelops Chimney Town, the people are filled with fear and uncertainty. Whispers of obscured stars circulate among the townsfolk, but they dismiss them as mere tales.

From the nearby landfill, an unexpected entity emerges, born from the refuse and possessing a budding consciousness. This peculiar being captures the attention of Lubichi, setting the stage for an extraordinary journey.

Desperate for assistance, Lubichi, the son of Bruno, seeks refuge with the Inquisitors. However, irony strikes as he finds himself fleeing from the very authority he turned to for protection.

On his journey, Lubichi encounters Scoop, a loquacious thief. They strike a deal, agreeing to three cherished wishes, with their first goal being to escape the oppressive smoke that blankets their city.

In a dramatic turn of events, Lubichi and Scoop make their escape, marked by a powerful explosion that propels them towards newfound freedom. This moment signifies the beginning of their adventurous quest.

Reflecting on his past, Lubichi recalls the bracelet crafted by his father, Bruno, which is filled with wisdom about the mysteries of smoke. This token becomes essential for his journey toward truth and self-discovery.

As Lubichi begins his quest to find Poupelle, he struggles between wanting to protect his new friend and the burdens of being a chimney sweep. He cleverly disguises Poupelle, introducing him to the perils of chimney climbing.

Poupelle finds himself among a group of children, who share stories of Lubichi and the tragic tale of Bruno's demise at the hands of monstrous creatures. This narrative haunts Poupelle, deepening his bond with Lubichi.

Tensions rise as a confrontation occurs between Lubichi and Antonio, one of the children. This altercation stems from blame directed at Poupelle for a surge of asthma cases plaguing the town.

Returning home, Lubichi is confronted by the sight of Inquisitors interrogating his mother. Her desperate plea for him to obey the law weighs heavily on him, reigniting the fear of losing another loved one.

In the aftermath of chaos, a local named Dan suffers a terrible fall, nearly captured by authorities. His critical condition sends shockwaves through the town, emphasizing the dangers imposed by the Inquisitors.

Scoop reveals to Lubichi a profound truth about his identity as Bruno's son. This revelation brings clarity about the city’s tumultuous history, igniting a renewed sense of purpose in Lubichi's quest.

Determined to fight back, Lubichi and his companions begin constructing a bomb on a sunken ship. Their secret operation is fraught with tension as they navigate the looming presence of the Inquisitors.

In a climactic moment, Lubichi detonates the bomb, leading to a brilliant explosion that fills the sky with stars. The citizens of Chimney Town are transformed by the sight of the starry expanse, awakening hope.

With the smoke clearing and stars visible, citizens of Chimney Town resolve to abandon smoke production. As Poupelle embarks on his journey, Lubichi reflects on the profound impact of their struggles and triumphs.
