(Note: *PLEASE READ* I published this short exactly 4 months ago. Today, I am pleased to announce that the making of an animated series is in progress! I am re-sharing this project, since it will provide some helpful background information. Enjoy!) Double Click the Green Flag, and close all other tabs before watching! (Would recommend full screen too) It will take a while to load, this project uses a lot of computer memory. Turn up your volume! •☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾•☾• The Story: This is the origin of the Enk Tribe- an ancient story passed down through generations. In fact, Enk City features a statue of Mae, sculpted and placed in the center of the Crystal Caves. Once, long ago, a young woman named Mae sought a safe place to raise her family. She dared to go into the deathly cold, by herself, in search of just that. She waited at the side of a cliff for 30 days and 30 nights. One day, just for a moment, the violent winds settled down, and before her shone the Crystal Dragon. The Crystal Dragon, seeing her courage and perseverance, blessed her with a beautiful flower crown of crystal blossoms. The dragon then flew up into the sky and came crashing down, to form what today is called the Crystal Mountains. The Crystal Mountains block the surrounding area from the violent winds, and while it's still plenty cold, the mountains provide a safe shelter for Mae and her family to live. The Enk Tribe begins to form, and with it, everlasting peace spreads across the cold, creating a warmth from the love of the people within the city. The Enk Tribe forever honours Mae's spirit, and of course, the spirit of the Crystal Dragon. For without them, there would be no life left.

I'm proud with how it turned out, and I hope you guys can see the magic held within this ancient story. <3 © Sep 07, 2020 Republished on Dec 07, 2020
