Demetria (A Siren's Tale)

"It all started with a bang."

The continent of Astrine may not have been as well renowned for it's military as Skeusil's central countries, but crime wasn't 'normal' either. It especially wasn't normal when a young siren boy living in Atrium-- the country that was home to the royal family-- was reported to have been kidnapped in his own home.

A mere thirteen years of age, Androu Siskas wasn't strong enough to stand a chance. He was incredibly intelligent and brave for his age, but it didn't give him the physical strength that he needed to combat his abductors. Some time passed, and Androu was starting to lose hope. But just as he thought that things couldn't get any worse, a wisp like creature began to attack his truck and the people within it.

A creature cloaked in ice.
