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 stood facing the people of the settlement and said, "You all do not have to worry about the bandits. I will deal with them. Please put your close ones to rest in peace."

The people could not believe that this child was so strong. He walked over to the square and overtook the situation with several spells. The young monk was kind to them. Valerie had prayed for the deceased just as soon as Valerian got the corpses off the pikes. The people felt their hearts warm up from their gestures.

The middle-aged man stepped up and asked, "Sir, can you rescue the children taken away by those bandits?"

Valerian sighed and said, "Sir, I cannot promise you with complete confidence, but I will try my best to rescue them back."

The man clenched his fist, and then he sighed. He nodded and said, "I am Holmer. Please tell me if you need any help?"
