Lila returned home with her body all sore. Her parents were flabbergasted. Lila's mom rushed to her saying " Lila my dear what happened? Who did this to you?" Lila didn't say anything just looking at her furious dad.
Lila's dad dragged her to the study and spoke "You this child why are you so obsessed with this boy? This boy isn't worth your time"
Lila spoke "But father I love him and you know that"
Her dad spoke "Lila let me tell about the family's secret.
In the ancient land of Azura, the Doxios family was renowned for their wisdom, kindness, and bravery. They were respected and admired by the entire village.
However, their fortunes took a dark turn when the family's patriarch, driven by ambition and greed, made a grave mistake. He ordered the destruction of a sacred grove, a place of ancient power and spiritual significance, to make way for a new trade route.
The gods, displeased with the Doxios' reckless disregard for the natural world and the sacred, cursed the family. Their name was changed to Kerus, which meant "cursed" or "horned."
The Kerus family's mistake had far-reaching consequences, causing widespread devastation to the land and its people. The once-respected family was now shunned and feared by the villagers.
The Maita family, who had always been friends with the Doxios, was shocked and saddened by their downfall. However, the gods, pleased with the Maita's loyalty and commitment to justice, rewarded them with special powers.
The Maita family was gifted with the ability to communicate with nature, harness the power of the elements, and wield ancient magic. They were also granted the power to heal and protect the innocent.
With their newfound powers, the Maita family vowed to defend the land against the Kerus family's evil actions. The two families became sworn enemies, their hatred and animosity towards each other growing with each passing generation.
As the years passed, the legend of the Maita's powers grew, and they became known as the guardians of the land. The Kerus family, on the other hand, was feared and reviled, their name becoming synonymous with darkness and destruction.
