In the fantastical realm of Legendscape, a land of stark contrasts and vibrant life, the story unfolds around Aerontar, a 21-year-old Avariel Elf Mage of exceptional talent and a heart full of dreams. Born with wings as white as the clouds and magic coursing through his veins, Aerontar's journey is one of discovery, conflict, and love that defies the norms of his world.
Legendscape is a world divided, not just by boundaries but by the very nature of its lands. In the opulent sectors, the air shimmers with magic, and the streets are lined with the mansions of nobles, their lives a perpetual dance of power, intrigue, and decadence. These high-end areas are bastions of civilization where art, magic, and science flourish together, creating a stark contrast to the rest of the world.
Beyond these enclaves of luxury and peace, the landscape bears the scars of endless wars. Here, in the war-torn territories, alliances are as fleeting as life. The clashing of swords and the roar of magic echo continuously, as factions vie for control over resources, land, and ancient artifacts of immense power. Aerontar finds himself drawn to these battles, not just for the thrill of combat, but to end the suffering and bring peace to these ravaged lands.
Aerontar's journey is not just one of battle and exploration but also of personal discovery and intimate connections. Throughout his travels, he encounters individuals and communities that challenge his beliefs and open his heart to new forms of love and companionship. In a world where relationships are as diverse as the people themselves, Aerontar explores the depths of romance, from the tender to the tempestuous. His adventures lead him to understand the complexities of polyamory, embracing relationships that transcend traditional bounds and finding love in its many forms.

"Why are you doing this? Why are you befriending me? Though we met five hundred years ago, why do you still bring me into your life? So much can happen in that many years but instead of staying with your friends or finding other things to do, you're with me. Why?" I ask again.
Though I don't like being so forward, I can't help it. I'm scared to hurt him.
He shifts his gaze to me. His hazel eyes gleam into my blue ones as if he knows something that I don't.
"You're right. I had five hundred years, five hundred years to stay with my friends and five hundred years to find other hobbies." He pauses, taking in breath.
"But I had five hundred years without you, we only had two weeks together. And those two weeks were the best I've ever had. That's why I want to continue them-with you, Athy."
