The First Legendary Rune Mage

In the mystical realm of Eryndor, where magic is the lifeblood of society, young Luth Hxavion, a scion of the prestigious Hxavion noble house, grapples with a debilitating condition known as Mana Invocation Disorder. This rare ailment prevents him from casting spells, rendering him an outcast in a world where magical prowess is revered above all. Despite his deep understanding of magic theory, Luth’s condition leaves him powerless, constantly overshadowed by his peers and the expectations of his lineage. One fateful day, while rummaging through the forgotten remnants of his family’s library, Luth stumbles upon an old, tarnished magic pen. At first glance, it appears to be a faulty relic of no significance. But as he grips the pen, he feels a faint, unfamiliar tingle—a spark of mana. Desperate to harness any semblance of power, Luth begins to experiment with the pen, tracing intricate patterns and symbols with his mana. To his astonishment, these symbols, though foreign and mysterious, manifest as spells. Unlike traditional magic, these symbols hold a raw, unrefined power, capable of feats beyond ordinary spellcasting. With each stroke, Luth pioneers a new form of magic, creating what he dubs "Runes." These arcane symbols become his lifeline, a way to channel his mana and assert his place in the world. As Luth delves deeper into the secrets of rune magic, he uncovers ancient prophecies hinting at a time before magic was formalized, when primordial forces shaped the world. His discovery of rune magic, it seems, is no accident. Luth's journey is intertwined with a greater destiny: to bring balance to Eryndor and restore a lost age of magic.
