Depending on who you ask, Alunya is either a bastard witch who has bewitched his own brother, or a carefree and innocent- if reckless- child. Born into a village isolated by a divine barrier for the last fifteen-hundred years, protected from the divine beasts and magical storms of the wilderness beyond, the innate savagery and peculiar gifts that Alunya is both blessed and cursed by makes him a poor fit.

All that Alunya wants in life is to strike out on adventure throughout the wider world with his much-beloved older brother, Antares. But the long centuries of peaceful isolation have brought about stagnation, superstition... And a fear of the unknown. And so, already under suspicion from the stigmata which has marked him from birth, Alunya's prodigal talents quickly provoke scorn and distrust. After all, What use did any in such peaceful times have for power?

Yet Alunya and Antares are not under threat of merely their lives, but their very souls, in a world eager to twist them into a reflection of their surroundings. The question remains open if Alunya will even survive to see the future he dreams of... And perhaps more importantly, if he does, will any part of his or his brothers' innocence still be intact to see it?

Third person limited, present tense, from the perspectives of the two main characters (Alunya and Antares) with very few exceptions. I would describe the genre as slow-burn character drama, with adventure elements only far later into the story. Upload schedule is biweekly.
