Side Note:
The characters in the story are not very descriptive in physical appearance except for the clothing to characterize their wealth within the storyline. The reason for doing this is to give the reader, you, the creativity of making their appearance how you'd like it to be.
(I wanted to make the story how I would want to read it, and I prefer making up my own appearance of characters from stories instead of rolling with the already made appearances.)
Description:
The bright and captivating country of Alura turns upside down when the country is overthrown by the neighboring county, Birsykio. Aluran citizens are thrown into the fight for survival when Birsykio soldiers begin to kill them off. This was the same case for the Kratos Family who have been Alura residents for generations.
When the decimation of Alura commenced, a proclamation from Alura's ally country, Valencia, declared full and complete safety of the Aluran citizens if they can get to the Valencian boundaries on their own. And with this declaration, the Kratos Family waste no time and set forth on a journey to Valencia.
William Kratos, the oldest son of the Kratos Family and an educator, goes with his family in hopes for safety and security. But in order to obtain these hopes, the family must proceed through dangerous terrain, travel long distances, and progress through life threatening situations. All while coming across different kinds of circumstances, learning new aspects, and falling in love.
Enjoy the story! :D
