Explain Nostr Relays Like I'm 5

Sure! Imagine you have two friends, Alice and Bob, and they want to send secret messages to each other. But, they don't want anyone to know what they're saying. Nostr Relays are like special messengers who help keep their messages secret.

Here's how it works:

1. Alice gives her message to the Nostr Relay.
2. The Nostr Relay takes the message and makes it look like a jumbled-up puzzle. So, if someone tries to sneak a peek, they won't understand what it says.
3. Then, the Nostr Relay sends the jumbled-up puzzle to Bob.
4. Bob receives the puzzle, and he's the only one who knows how to unscramble it to read Alice's message.

So, Nostr Relays help Alice and Bob talk secretly by turning their messages into puzzles that only they can solve, keeping their messages safe from prying eyes.
