The Girl Who Looked Up is a Rosharan folk tale.
Story
A girl lives in a village by an impossibly high wall, which nobody in the village acknowledges. She asks and asks about the wall, and what it keeps out, but they all repeat the same reply: "Don't go beyond it or you'll probably die."
She climbs the wall and when she reaches the top she finds a better world, lit by stormlight. She steals some light and takes it back to her village.
Tellings
Whilst adventuring in Urithiru, Shallan tells the tale as a play, using Lightweaving in an amphitheatre to create an image of the scenes in the play and eventually emulating a shadowy crowd watching from the stalls.[1]
The story is then repeated to Shallan by Hoid while she is Kholinar, after discovering her attempts at helping the native residents failed.[2]
