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 announced the start of the War Council and the atmosphere in the courtroom changed. Prime Minister Alm stood up from his chair and said, "I would like to make a suggestion, when considering any action against the enemy, we must make sure to remember that the same can be done against us. The safety of our people is to be put above all else."

The rest of the people nodded at this. If the citizens were harmed then the situation will be troublesome and war will be nothing more than a lost cause.

Valerian cast a glance around the room and said, "From what I know, the next harvesting festival is still a month away, if we send the military to war, will the store of grains be able to keep up? While fighting, bodies need more energy and energy comes from grain."

The minister responsible for this said, "Your Highness, the grains in the stores can keep the army fed for the next three months, and if they go to war then one and half a month."

Rule Of The Wise.
