Once, they reigned supreme over the Lunaris Kingdom: Nyara Goddess of Night,  Kail God of Night, and their daughter, Iyla, the Child of Night. But two centuries ago, the cruel hand of humanity struck them down, shattering their celestial reign. Betrayal led to their demise, their divine essence scattered across Earth. Now, reborn and unaware, they live mortal lives, their memories lost to the ages.

Nyara, a 24-year-old woman on Earth, bears a striking birthmark that mimics the night sky across her back and arms. This causes her to feel alienated from her family and the world, she always covers it up. A nagging sense of incompleteness haunts her, a void where a past life should be.

Kail, now 25, carries a strange birthmark from his chest down his arm, a faint echo of his godly past. He walks a lonely path, disconnected from those around him, feeling a profound sense of loss, as if something vital has been stolen from him.

In a secluded forest, a 5-year-old girl named Iyla was discovered as a baby in forest, abandoned and marked with radiant patterns from her shoulders to her arms. She resides in an orphanage, forever overlooked for adoption due to her unusual markings.

Veil Of Night

Life in the orphange… it's kinda wonley. It's always the same o', and I wanted things to be different. I wanted a mommy. I wanted a family. Miss Clara is nice, but she's not my mommy.

I wemember the nice lady from the park; she was so pwetty and kind. She tied my shoes, and she didn't laugh at my star marks. I wished she was my mommy.

But the orphange… it's not home. It's just a place. I want a home where I can play and waugh and hug my mommy and daddy.

That night, I had a tummy ache in my chest it was that night I had a bad dream

Every fing was dark and crying I was calling and calling and nothing they say I was alone. When I woke up my face was all wet I knew I had to go. I can do thes on my own

So, that night, I decided. I had to get away. I had to find my mommy, even if it was scawy.

I waited until everyfing was quiet, and then I got out of bed. My wittle star backpack was all ready. I had my snacks (gummy bears and cwackers!), my juice boxes, and my favowite storybook about stars. I put on my ovewawls, and my shoes, and my jackiet it was cold so every fing it was fine

Then, I weached over to the window to see the big world out side that night I became brave

I climbed out, careful not to make a sound. It was a wittle bit scawy, but I had to be brave. I had to find my mommy.

I wand down the steaps from the ladder and jumped I laned perfectly on the flowets that I would always take care off

I ran away from the orphange and I didn't wok back just run away.

Every fin woked biger when I was all by myself it had me crying but if I wanted to find her I had to stop cryin

The streets were empty and scawy it was a new world

The first night, I swept in the pwayhouse in the park. It was vewy cold, but I snuggled with my storybook, and it made me feel a wittle better. I was looking at the staws in the sky.

Loshing hope that one day I will ever finnd my mommy for my dreams. It I had my dreams about finnding and meeting her.

After thired night the snacks started to run out I had to go the store

Then it started to wain it was cold wet and windy The stwwet where empty

My tummy was also crying and I needed to wipe my eyes

My jacket was wet. Every fing around was just spinning I was so scared and cold all I wanted to be huged the way my mommy is susposte to do

I wemmber telling my self "I can do this just a little further I was so excited to find but nothing happens". I wanted to be like some of the other kids.

Mi head started to hurt everyting was going round and round. Then, the wawst fing happened I had to cwossw the stweet when. My head started hurt again making dizzy and hot but I did not want to stop.

I started to run and before I knew it things started to go dark my head hurt everyfing was just gone so dark."

The thing I wemember hearing is people shouting, "Call an ambulance ! Theres a child in in the road!" And then everyfing went black and so far away .
