Las Espadas was once a thriving town, known for its lush greenery and expansive plantations, a testament to the generations of wealthy landowners and their loyal farmers who cultivated the land. But in 1999, disaster struck in the form of a devastating crop plague, a blight so severe it turned the once-fertile fields into barren wastelands. As the town's prosperity withered, so did its sense of hope, and in the void left behind, a dark and eerie legend began to take root-a tale of betrayal, blood, and vengeance that would haunt Las Espadas for years to come.
The legend centers around Quackity Nightshade, an omega from one of the town's most prominent families. In the days leading up to his wedding, an event meant to unite two powerful houses, tragedy struck. Quackity was discovered in a bloody wedding tuxedo, standing over the lifeless body of a member of a rival family-a man he was accused of killing in cold blood. The timing couldn't have been more sinister; the victim was none other than the brother of one of Quackity's fiancés, Nick Ravenwood. Despite Quackity's desperate pleas of innocence during his trial, the townsfolk were quick to judge. His fiancés, Nick Ravenwood and Karl Jacobs, turned against him, testifying in court and sealing his fate. Quackity was sentenced to life imprisonment, his future as bleak as the cursed land of Las Espadas.
Imprisoned and isolated, Quackity gave birth to twin sons, a brief glimmer of hope in his otherwise hopeless existence. But fate had one final cruel twist in store. Just days after their birth, a mysterious fire engulfed the prison. Trapped within the flames, Quackity's anguished cries echoed through the night as he searched for his missing newborns. As the inferno consumed him, his dying breath carried a chilling vow: revenge upon those who had betrayed him and condemned him to this fiery end. Though his body was never found, his wrath became the stuff of nightmares, a curse whispered among the townspeople.
A teenage boy is running from the law. A large bounty is over his head, and five Hunters are constantly chasing him, determined to get the money. It all changes when Dream gets wings.
Now everything that he knew about life is upside down and twisted. As he is a magpie, his "bird-brain" takes over when he sees anything shiny, and he immediately wants it. It also pops up during great emotion, scattering his usual calm and cold reactions. His wings are tiny, not yet full grown, like they should have been because most avians are born with their wings.
He doesn't know who he is, or what to call himself, and he no longer feels safe with the sudden new dangers around him, especially with his fresh wings to take care of. And now he is forced to play in a harsh competition of something like Minecraft where he has enemies from day one. At least he has Techno, his partner, who is only three years older than him, but he can't help but feel like the pink-winged avian could be a father. At least, until he realizes why that person wanted to protect him. And then he feels betrayed.
