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

The Thunder Falcon was a proud beast, but it was injured in a fatal spot, and by the time it heals, its life might have come to an end. After all, the forest and the magic beasts were not very kind to the weak. Even though the thunder falcons lived in the same spot, they did not have a relationship with each other.

This was just a mutually beneficial co-existence. Thunder Falcons felt safe when they were surrounded by their kin, even if they did not have any complex relationships. This was because the thunder falcons were magical beasts with lightning elementals. A species that was rarest among the rarest. Thus, they were counted against by the humans and other beasts all the same.

It was believed that their blood could allow the consumer to gain their powers, however, no one has ever succeeded, yet the humans lusted after their blood like forever.

Flight.
