Prologue

Prologue:

In the quiet village of Eldermoor, nestled between rolling hills and meandering rivers, there lived a boy named Malcom. He was born into poverty, his small home barely providing shelter from the cold and hunger that plagued his days. Among his peers, he was the odd one out - no powers, no prestigious lineage, just a boy with a heart full of dreams and little to his name.

His days were spent tending to his mother's modest farm, a place where they grew just enough to sustain themselves. Despite the hardships, Malcom always wore a smile, finding joy in the simplest of things. But even the brightest of smiles couldn't shield him from the taunts and jeers of the other children.

His heart ached with every cruel word thrown his way, but he never let it break him. Malcom held on to hope like a flickering candle in the darkest of nights. He cherished every moment with his mother, their bond unbreakable, and their love a fortress against the harshness of the world.

Yet, fate can be a cruel master, and one fateful day, an unfortunate event struck their peaceful life. His mother fell gravely ill, and the weight of responsibility pressed down on Malcom's young shoulders. He knew that he had to act swiftly and courageously, for he had no one else to turn to.

With determination in his heart, Malcom set out to work tirelessly, day and night, hoping to gain enough money to afford medicine and treatment for his ailing mother. School became an unattainable dream, but the desire for knowledge never waned in his heart. Instead, he learned from the world around him, absorbing wisdom like a sponge.

One seemingly ordinary day, as Malcom was on his way to the nearby market to sell the meager surplus from his mother's farm, he stumbled upon a strange and awe-inspiring sight. Two supernatural beings, their forms radiant with power, were locked in an intense battle in the middle of the forest.

Curiosity got the better of him, and he couldn't tear his eyes away from the mesmerizing display of magic. As he watched, captivated, a deafening explosion erupted from the clash of the two forces, sending shockwaves through the air.

Fear gripped Malcom's heart as he tried to retreat to safety, but fate had other plans. He was caught in the aftermath of the explosion, a blinding light engulfing him entirely. When the brilliance subsided, he found himself surrounded by an aura of unknown energy.

Confused and disoriented, Malcom realized that something extraordinary had occurred. Unbeknownst to him, the clash of those supernatural forces had somehow bestowed powers upon him, changing his destiny forever.

In the days that followed, he learned to control his newfound abilities, which seemed to draw from the very essence of the world around him. As he delved deeper into this new realm of power, he discovered that he was no longer just an ordinary boy.

He was now part of the world of supernatural beings he once could only dream of.

With his mother's health still fragile, Malcom's priorities remained unchanged. But now, with his powers, he had the means to embark on a journey that could save not only his mother but also uncover the truth behind the clash of those supernatural beings.

The stage was set for a tale of growth, resilience, and the extraordinary. As Malcom's journey began, he would soon realize that the world of the supernatural was not just about power and magic but also about friendship, sacrifice, and finding one's place in a world where even the most unexpected souls could shine brightly.
