Once upon a time there was a bird. The bird was a beloved friend of a child. They did everything together. They played. They ate. They slept. There were none in the forest closer then they. But one day that all ended. The bird was killed by a merchant for its feathers when it was searching for a stone the child lost. The child was confused when her friend didn't return to her that night. She searched for her friend relentlessly until she had found out what had become of it. In anger she killed the merchant and those with him, taking the feathers they had stolen from her precious friend. Beyond heartbroken, she gave her life over to the Creperum, Nox, and vowed to serve him for eternity. Years passed and she grew up to be a bitter killer, and assassin that lacked emotions. She pushed away all attempts of those who tried to befriend her, darkness clouding her mind. She became feared across all of the Lost Realm. Those who heard her name quaked with fear at it and those who came into contact with her were killed. She continued on like this until the day she met a broken cub. He was sobbing on the ground, fear in his eyes as he looked at her. There were deep marks from a whipping across his back and scars lined his arms and legs. Something in her shifted in the moment she met his eyes. She could see her old friends spirit within the cub. Though commanded to kill all and spare none she stepped over the cub and left him alive as she finished her job. Confusion crossed the cubs face as she helped him to his feet and brought him with her into the forest, hiding him there. Every day she brought food to him and dressed his many wounds, trying to help him heal. Her bitter, broken heart beginning to piece itself back together with her love for the cub. Eventually he was well again and began to follow her around as she did what she was ordered to do by Nox her master. He could see that the killing was stabbing at her heart and she wanted it to end. He vowed they run away together and find a place nobody, not even Nox, could find them. She agreed and they left the woods, traveling far into the mountains where not even the sun itself could reach. Free from Nox and his horrors, she and the cub took care of each other as siblings would, and as each day passed they grew closer to one another. Nothing could shake them now...
-Originally created and shared on my side account but being moved to my main- Wow Squire actually animated something that isn't a practice what?... (The end got lazy I'm sorry... and the art is lazy... and the animations only follow the story loosely hhhh) You will be seeing more of these guys in other projects- (I'm actually quite proud of a couple of these animations :33)
