In the kingdom of Vaeloria, there was a young prince named Aradon. Born into the royal family, he was raised within the grand halls of his family's castle, a stronghold surrounded by enemies. The kingdom faced endless threats, especially from the rival kingdom of Avirinth. Assassination attempts were common, battles frequent, and the royal family lived in constant fear of betrayal. But despite the unrest, young Aradon was different from the rest of his family. He was fearless, inquisitive, and drawn to the unknown.
One day, curiosity led him beyond the castle walls. The nearby forest, a place of mystery and legend, had always intrigued him. Stories of terrifying creatures lurking within its depths were whispered among the castle servants. It was said that none who entered ever returned. But Aradon, barely more than a boy, refused to be ruled by fear. Armed with nothing but his courage, he ventured into the heart of the dark forest alone.
