Valoria

What if I told you there were magical beings with magical powers, it's pretty crazy to think about it right, it's impossible to be magical. Well that's where your wrong. In New York there was camp called Valoria it was a peaceful area for kids to come and settle down in the summer and for kids who couldn't they would live there. Kids who were out on run had it the worse, see there are these things called minixes there these black blobs who take form of anything it's usually wendigo's, and they feed on magical beings energy until they numb and than they become mind slaves to the minixes.
So that's one of the reason why Valoria is so important to a lot of these kids.
