The Forsaken Sovereign

"The veil of sanity is a lie we tell ourselves when we gaze at the night sky, hoping, in a stifled corner of our mind, that the stars aren't gazing back." — A nameless, insignificant, yet ambitious young man once attempted to rescue his family from poverty. But as he found hope, he also stumbled upon despair. After losing everything to the darkness of death, including himself, he woke up in another world, stuck in the body of an eleven-year-old boy with a peculiar appearance. He soon discovered that he was a Celestial Offering—a holy sacrifice, carefully groomed by the Temple of Stars to be given to the Gods Beyond. His fate had already been sealed, for his blood would spill under the seven-pointed star and consecrate the birth of a new era for his nation. Armed with nothing but his wit and the trail of good fortune, he would attempt to challenge this destiny, braving the countless hurdles that lay in waiting and the unfathomable horrors they harbored. In a realm of magecraft, occult rituals, madness, and prowling Eidolons, he could only count on himself to survive, as the threat of insanity loomed over everyone equally, and nothing could slow its ineluctable embrace. — Discord: Naphulae#1813

Quakes and Clashes

Meilyr couldn't believe himself.

He had been naive, taken by surprise due to the remnants of his humanity. 

Magi were cunning by nature. One wouldn't be able to battle the constant corruption of their own mind if they weren't fickle enough. Being a child changed nothing, as an Insight Ritual twisted sanity and innocence alike. 

Beyond the apprehension of failing the Electus Minor, the fact that such an act had deceived him frustrated him to no end.

No more.

Curiosity aside, he had wanted to keep Vivi at arm's length due to convenience. If she proved too troublesome for what she was worth, killing her and retrieving his golden orb would become the easier task.

He wasn't going to make the same mistake twice. 

Darting through the forest on her trail, he coated his body in a thick layer of Mana before launching himself in a straight line, destroying a string of trees and covering several hundred meters in a single leap.
