The Bell That Wouldn't Ring

When dawn forgets to arrive, the bell that wakes Dralen falls silent-and a whole village holds its breath.

Seventeen-year-old Taren, a runner with more speed than sense, finds himself tangled in the problem: a cracked bell, a stubborn cliff, and a bell keeper whose patience could carve stone. In a town where sound shapes rhythm, silence means danger.

As Taren races to mend the dawn, he stumbles into something deeper than broken metal-an echo between people, place, and purpose. From the cliffs that hum with memory to the quarrels that keep the world turning, Dralen must learn to argue politely with the impossible... and remember why they ring at all.

A Sylren folktale of rhythm, stubborn hope, and the echo that binds a village together.
