Tell me a demandred short story.

Demandred is one of the Forsaken in 'Wheel of Time'. He is extremely powerful and has a complex personality. He is filled with envy towards Lews Therin Telamon. He spends much of his time trying to outdo his ancient rival in different ways. He infiltrates the Seanchan empire and rises to a high position there, using their resources and military might in his grand schemes against the forces of good in Randland.

Demandred was known for his shrewdness. In this short story, he was invited to a grand ball. Everyone there was vying for power and influence. Demandred, however, had a different plan. He noticed a young artist in the corner who was being ignored. He befriended the artist and through him, learned about the true nature of the people at the ball. Using this knowledge, he was able to make deals and gain more power than those who were busy showing off at the ball.

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She lived in a small village. One day, while exploring the forest near her home, she found a beautiful, shiny stone. She took it home and put it on her windowsill. Every night, the stone would glow softly and give her sweet dreams. Lily grew up believing it was a magical stone that protected her throughout her life.

There was a young boy named Tom. He loved to draw. One sunny day, he went to the park with his sketchbook. He sat under a big oak tree. As he was drawing the flowers, a little bird flew down and perched on his shoulder. Tom was so still that he managed to draw the bird too. It was one of his best drawings ever.

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She found a magic key in the attic. When she turned the key, a door to a secret garden appeared. In the garden, there were talking animals and the most beautiful flowers she had ever seen. She played with the animals all day, and when she left, she knew she could always come back with the magic key.

Demandred's decision to side with the Dark One was a crucial event in his story. After that, his rise within the Seanchan ranks was significant. He was able to direct their military actions against Rand al'Thor and his allies. Also, his final confrontation with the forces of good, where he met his end, was a major event that shaped the outcome of the overall story in 'Wheel of Time'.

Once upon a time, a cat decided to learn how to bark like a dog. It practiced day and night. One day, it finally managed to make a sound that was somewhat like a bark. But when it barked at a passing dog, the dog just stared at it in confusion and then walked away, as if thinking 'What on earth is this strange creature trying to do?'

Once upon a time, Gru was planning his next big heist. He decided to steal the moon, which was an incredibly audacious plan. His minions were excited yet a bit nervous. They prepared all kinds of wacky gadgets. Gru, with his long nose and evil laugh, started to put his plan into action. But along the way, he met the three little girls. Their innocence and kindness began to soften his cold heart, and that was the start of his transformation from a truly despicable character to someone with a heart.

In my Minecraft world, I built a small farm near my wooden house. One day, while I was tending to the crops, a friendly pig walked up. I decided to tame it. I gave it some carrots, and it followed me around from then on. It was really cute and became my little companion in the game.

Once upon a time, there was a little hummingbird named Hummy. It had the most beautiful iridescent feathers. One day, Hummy found a garden filled with the sweetest nectar - filled flowers. It flitted from flower to flower, its tiny wings a blur. As it sipped the nectar, it also spread pollen, helping the flowers to thrive. Hummy became a beloved friend to all the creatures in the garden, and its story was told for generations to come.
