Chapter 2: A New Beginning

Notice to Readers

Dear Readers,

I want to thank you for giving my story a chance, but I have an important message to share. After much reflection, I’ve realized that this story is far from what I hoped it would be. As a new and inexperienced writer, I made many mistakes in this book.

To grow and improve, I’ve decided to start fresh with a new book that reflects the lessons I’ve learned and the research I’ve done to create a better experience for you. I invite you to check out my latest work:

New Book: THE FALLEN HERO

This new story is the beginning of a journey where I aim to craft a world and characters that you can truly connect with. I’m excited for you to explore it and share your thoughts.

Thank you for your understanding and support as I continue to grow as a writer.

Warm regards,
[ @DJ_SIDDIQUI ]

The first few years of life are often a haze, but for Argus, every second of his rebirth was vivid.  as if his awareness had sharpened. With that keen awareness, however, came echoes of a past he could never entirely escape. Memories—fragmented but powerful—lingered in his mind: a world bathed in harsh lights, a life filled with weariness, and a single act of sacrifice. But he chose not to dwell on the fragments. Now, he had a family—a world waiting to be discovered.

The first time he opened his eyes in this new world, he found himself looking up at two faces, soft and warm against the morning sun. His parents, Kaelen and Elysia, looked at him with a mixture of pride and wonder.

"Look at him, Kaelen," Elysia whispered, her voice a melody that filled the small room with warmth. She cradled Argus gently, her fingers brushing over his cheek. “Such intense eyes… it’s like he’s seeing everything for the first time.”

“He’ll grow strong,” Kaelen replied, his voice low and calm. “Just look at him, already so alert. He’ll be a fighter.”

Those words, spoken in a hushed tone, struck something within Argus. He had no words to respond, only a heartbeat that felt steady and determined. He could sense the power in his father—the careful balance between strength and gentleness in the way Kaelen held him.

Their home became Argus's entire world, and it was filled with simple yet profound moments that helped him begin anew. Kaelen, his father, was a skilled hunter with a quiet strength. He spent his days tracking  through dense forests, always ensuring their small family had enough to eat. spent long days hunting and gathering, his skills with a bow and swords were amazing like a real warrior.
