THE_WORDSMITH

In this world, some say, the truth and the legends are the same. One such legend belonged to the protagonist, Valerian.

Valerian was an orphan, a boy blessed with a beautiful face, and everyone around him, could not help but want to play with him, till one day a prophet passing through their town pronounced him to be cursed. 

Since that day, the destiny of the boy seemed to have changed completely, he was shunned by everyone around him, and the gazes that were earlier filled with love and affection, now brimmed with disgust and hatred. 

The constant shunning and humiliation made the cheerful child grow up to be bitter and inexpectant. On his seventh birthday, things changed once again. 

This time, it was not the people around him who went through a change, but himself. As he grew up, Valerian became a legend in his own sense. 

The people sang of a boy, who could not speak, they shed tears for a boy, who could not grieve. He came from nowhere yet he was known everywhere. 

Would you like to know this legend? A story where a curse can become a blessing? A story of sacrifice, betrayal, determination, and secrets.

Valerian, The Legendary

Valerian woke up in the morning covered with cold sweat. He did not know why he dreamt of Rectus like this. He saw that the man was being held captive, in a cave. He also saw the cave to be hidden within a forest. He was not sure where this place was, so out of humanity, Valerian penned a letter to Azula so that the princess could check up on his situation.

The boy did not even finish his meal and ran out to the posting tower of the academy. This was the place where all the administrative work of the academy was taken care of. It was a small castle outside the education block.

Valerian passed on his letter to a staff member and asked him to send it through with the fastest postal service that was available. The students were allowed to communicate with the world outside free of charge.

Target.
