Far, far away, in the space between universes, there was a little world in which the laws of evolution applied a little bit different to what you and I would expect. Instead of chemical processes organising cells growing in complexity over time, life took an unexpected turn from its early stages when magic mixed the plasma of the nearest star.
That was the beginning of the star children.

They formed from the plasma drifting through space, raining down on the little warm planet. Soon they would establish a thriving civilisation.

They became skilled in the arts of magic manipulation, knowledge consolidation and compassion.

They cherished their little home, its creatures, and their people.

Days passed filled with bliss until the day shadows flowed onto the land, stealing the candour of their lives.

This is the story of how the children of the light faded from their world.

Tales From the Void by AlDragonObsessor
11 parts Complete
*This series features dragons from the mobile game DragonVale. I do not claim ownership of the dragons or designs, only the individual personalities and created lore, which majorly diverges from the canon DragonVale lore.* *Potential gore warning for some of these stories. There are some graphic scenes of violence in "Skytooth" , "Dougal" , "Fiona" , "Photon" , and "Jolt" * This is a series of short stories spun-off from my graphic novel series: From the Void, In the Void, and To the Void. This trilogy documented the journey of two groups of dragons from a dimension known simply as the Void. After a massive famine, this world falls into chaos, giving rise to a pack of cannibals that systematically ends the population. This group is known as the Voidian Raiders. Over the course of the three series, we meet a band of survivors that ultimately defeats the raiders and, later on, teams up with them to save the dying Void. This culminates in the remaining Voidian population settling an island in the Dragon Universe, starting over from scratch. Tales From the Void is a series of side stories, documenting the journeys of other Voidians and their struggles in background of these events. Some directly intersect with the events of the Void series, some only connect losely, and some are connected to entirely other storylines in my vast Dragon Universe continuity. Most are written, however, in a way that you do not need to understand the full scope of the lore, and you are given enough context that you can get the basic story.

In an alternate timeline, the human race found a way to create superpowers. By extracting energy from stars and inserting that energy into humans, 'powers' were created. Powers allowed humans to gain unnatural abilities such as flight, invisibility, super strength or in other words, superpowers. Of course, with the introduction of something so revolutionary, people rose up in the hundreds of thousands in an event known as the Great Rebellion. The insurgents banded together under a single banner and became collectively known as the Shadow, marking the beginning of the Cosmic Wars. Out of the darkness, the Gazers were born. Using what remained of the power technology, the Gazers singlehandedly perished the evil and ended the conflict. However, there was a price to pay. Powers put a toll on the human body and had serious mental and physical repercussions. The solution was to recruit children from the age of 13 to 18 and train them so their bodies would adapt to their powers, eventually becoming immune to all negative side effects. The end of the Cosmic Wars brought forth a new age of peace and prosperity that the world had never seen before. However, the long reign of the Gazers has already begun to crumble, cracks showing up within the very thread of society. Their rule will not last for much longer. The Shadow will rise once again. Or in other words, my unintentional and accidental ripoff of My Hero Academia :/ Blurb is a work in progress

I suggest you check out the game!! [the krills might scare you though, haha!!] Skesis is going on a trip to find the elder spirits that could stop the harvesters, a group of corrupted avatars that were taking skykids to feed them to the insane Dark dragons when they grew old enough. These corrupt avatars could do much damage, could speak to the insane dragons that roamed the eye of Eden, and were growing stronger by the day. The elders had no idea. If the insane Dark Dragons managed to devour enough skykids, they would soon be able to have enough strength to force their way into other realms, and make them as barren as the sorry lands they came from. Taking down the harvesters was what his father, Orchari, was trying to achieve, since he was once a skykid that was trapped in the horrid lands of the lands in which he was held captive in. But first, he wanted to get stronger. This was a quest he had worked long to achieve, but the realm of death and power, known as the Eye of Eden, ultimately ended his life before he could. It was up to Skesis to finish his late father's job. He was going to find the elders. He was going to save them all. But the harvesters were closer to him than he realized. He was closer to unlocking secrets that would throw his organized world into chaos. He was closer to everything. Now he must rethink the choices he was going to be forced to make. What would he choose: love or lives?
