Once upon a time, in a kingdom far away, a great king began a ceremonial tradition. Ten of the kingdom's greatest hunters would go out into the forest and hunt as many animals as they could. To aid them in the hunt, the king was in possession of an enchanted idem: a vial of starlight, given to him by an ancient faery. As long as the hunters had the vial, they could not get lost, they could not die on the hunt, and they always were able to hunt plenty of animals with ease. The hunt went on for many years, as the king grew old and wizened.
Over time, the vial would be the source of prosperity, but also pain. This is the story of those it impacted. This is the story of how it was lost, and found, and all the trials that came with it. This is the story of hunters, years apart, whose lives were changed by the vial, for better or for worse.
And while you might think these stories are completely separate, they intersect more than you think.
