Tell the story of holi and holika

Once, there was a bad king named Hiranyakashipu. He wanted everyone to listen only to him. But his son, Prahlad, loved God very much.

The king got angry and wanted to hurt Prahlad. His sister, Holika, had a magic cloak that could stop fire.

Holika sat with Prahlad on fire, thinking she would be safe and Prahlad would get hurt. But God saved Prahlad, and Holika got burned.

This story shows that good always wins over bad.
