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 was holding the witch by her hair. She was dangling while making constant grunting sounds. The two witches froze in their spots. The young man asked, "Are you probably wondering why she cannot say anything?"

Mel and Krel looked at each other, and the young man continued, "You do not have to overthink. I just cut off her tongue. I have a problem with sinners who think of their actions as some glory. What I hate more than that are the ones who think all those sinful things are glorious. So just a little punishment."

The two witches could not hold back and yelled in unison, "Bastard, I(we) will kill you."

Valerian chuckled and said, "Well, you will undoubtedly try, but before you can make a move, I will destroy her clothes, ruin her dignity, and then when she has no spirit left to fight. Then I will decapitate her, limb by limb, and finally watch her bleed to death as I channel fire mana through her veins, burning her inside out."
