Morana was usually a very cheerful Kel, doing everything in her power to brighten up someone's day. She was the little ball of sunshine that you couldn't help but smile at. However, as she grew older, Morana began to start struggling. So many thoughts would fill her head at once to the point that doing everyday tasks became difficult, so, with the suggestion from a friend, she began to throw her thoughts onto paper.

Writing slowly became an outlet for Morana, it was difficult to get the first parts down, but soon she began writing with ease, everything from mystery novels with an insane amount of detail and depth to really goofy one-off stories set in some random world. Looking back Morena is glad she found something to turn to when things began getting rough, and it's something she'll carry with her for a long time.

Sitting at her desk late in the night with a pen and paper, using her tail as a source of light will never get old.

Her friend always said that they should live today like it was there last. This stook to her since she had been down the dark hole of despare. She was brought the hope that days would get better in the future along the way.

----- This sucks, it was completely dark out, he couldn't see a thing. Getting caught on something he finally collapsed with a yelp, having no idea where he is, fear started to settle in and he laid there tears streaming down his snout. It was difficult, life was so unfair, and living with guilt over petty things that happened so very log ago and no value at all was not helping him, he felt completely dead inside.

He swore he heard footsteps closing in on him, whipping his head around he saw as a figure of himself emerged from the darkness in smoke. He had everything Solaris didn't, but... that wasn't him, it could never be him! He was none of those things, much less no matter how hard he worked since he was a little pup he still hasn't reached his dream, he wasn't even close to breaking the mold.

It took him moments to realize he was underattack by this darkened corrupted version of himself, adrenaline wasn't enough to win this war, but it made him feel so alive.. He admitted he couldn't beat his opponent and told him the whole truth, without even being aware he was making peace, a spark of light inside him began to glow, and so did his tail, as his black tail was beginning to glow in gold and extending it's natural length. Stunned by what was happening, he felt a surge of life inside him an inspiration he longed for for so long, he watched in shock as the corruption melted off of his inner self, and he realized his "dupe" was actually a superstar in him, waiting to be born.
With a swift whip of his tail his dupe turned to dust, and the world around him began to illuminate, and he could finally see the road that'd take him home. He was more than ready to leave, make up for the lost time, now that he glowed in the dark

Screw it, the word count is 330, cut down from 500.
There was nothing I could cut down that wouldn't affect the whole story of his inner battle, I already cut out a lot of the important stuff.

I wanted to associate his tail with being a symbol of breaking out his inner darkness, while taking inspiration from:
Glow In The Dark and Superstar In Me
Since they are part of my salvation whenever I'm on the dumps

" M e r c y."

They had taken her home from her, from her friends and family and all of her loved ones. And then, they had taken them, too. All she had was her name, powerful and bright, all that kept her as she was. But even that was stolen, and all of the color was drained from her body; not a part of her was spared, for even her scales wept their golden tincture.

A fool, she was made out to be. A queen too forgiving, too kind. She would not be led astray any further. She would reclaim what she had lost and she would rise from the maw of darkness she had been cast into.

A name had been taken from her, and a name she would have. But none fit her as nicely as her own. These were degradations, painful thorns that dug into her pelt, hardening her further to the cruel fate she had befallen. With every passing proclamation of a new moniker, she grew tired. The shimmering hope of her previous life was dwindling, the burning wick fading into nothing. Soon, she would forget everything.

But there it was, that radiant spark. Nestled among the trees, a familiar sight, one she thought she had envisioned in a dream. The light danced through the clearing, beckoning all to gaze upon its beauty. And so she did.

A divine light, graceful and commanding. But who were they, she questioned, for she had never seen them before. Aghast, it halted and proudly proclaimed its name, shining voice ringing through the woodlands, joined in unison by the unnamed Keldine.

"T i t a n i a."

The weight of a thousand years of agony lifted from her shoulders, the ichor dripping from her golden scales. She had found it, and it would stay forever hers.

They brushed their tail over the words they had wrote, over the image they had drawn from their mind. The fire inside their eyes had diminished by now, leaving pools of dark starlight, but they still came back to this picture, this drawing.

The lanky willow tree by the golden river.

Aurelius bit their lip, closing their eyes. They remembered when they drew it, when they were younger, before all of this happened. The colors in the book were a bit faded now, but it was still there. Like I am. I'm still here.

When the storm had come rolling in, everything had come crashing down around them. The book survived. They survived.

Then... why...

"You."

Aurelius opened their eyes, startled and scrambled to their paws, slamming the book closed. "Who's there?" They growled, lashing their tail.

"You." The voice repeated.

"Come out!" Aurelius shouted, frustration rippling in their tone. They hissed. A light was forming a few feet away.

"You."

Aurelius took a breath, a familiar smell hitting his nostrils. Sweet cinnamon cookies. Like the ones his mother used to make, the recipe long forgotten. It had been committed to her memory. Aurelius didn't remember it, but the smell of them, oh, the smell of them, brought back memories. Some they had forgotten they had, all of which warmed them from nose to tail tip. They relaxed.

"Me?"

"You."

"Where?" Aurelius whispered, but the light had faded, the scent still lingering.

They sighed, opening the book again. There! The willow tree! And the river! The river that was said to run with the ichor of the gods, the river they played in when they were little. The tree where they shared cookies! It was all coming together at last.

Aurelius blinked, the fire blazing again.

kel name; Lumine
prompt; 299 words !

Lumine had always been one of the "weird" Keldines in his small town. He'd heard it all and dealt with about double as much.

Ever since his glow had begun to grow in strength, so had the hatred hurled his way. In elementary classes, peers would jeer at him and exclude the Keldine from games, which he so desperately wanted to play. In middle school it became common for Keldines to act like his friend, only for them to report back to their actual friends and betray him. Once he graduated high school, everyone had almost unanimously decided to treat him as if he wasn't even there. The poor guy could never catch a break- even the teachers seemed to join in on the bullying.

Once adulthood hit, his confidence in just about anything he could do was shattered. His family needed his help financially, but it seemed almost impossible for him to get a good job. He became a complete shut in only playing video games and chatting with the very few friends he could make, before self-sabotaging each relationship.

That was, until, he hit top #500 in his favorite game.. Litters of Legends. Occasionally he would run into those "famous" streamers and sometimes even win- one of those Kels was one that went by the name of Bacchus305. Bacchus305 was an interesting streamer that would promote players he often lost against, which included our friend Lumine. Because Lumine didn't stream himself, he got the very rare treat of being invited to become a duo with Bacchus305. And, from Bacchus305's stream, he grew. Lumine learned lots of skills in game and different things about moderation/streaming himself. It almost seemed like he grew into a new Keldine, more confident and much less introverted. That stream became his paradise.

kel name; Crab
prompt;

The snow fell lightly on Crab's nose. He opened his glistening eyes and looked around. Lifting his muzzle, he quickly sniffed the air and caught the scent of Holly. Holly was his best friend, whom he had grown up with and shared every single memory and event in his life with. Glancing down, he saw her paw prints fading by the coming snow.

Crab stood up and shook the fresh snow from his pelt. Thankfully, his fur was thick enough to keep the cold out. As he walked off to find Holly, he began thinking about the events of the past week.

Sadly, Crab was always picked on because he looked different from all the other Keldines. He had only been accepted by his two friends, Duck and Holly, who both were misfits like him. They always stuck together through thick or thin and stood up for each other during tough times. Due to the loss of both of Crab's parents, he was living by himself, which was especially dangerous because of the blizzards during the winter.

Suddenly, Crab caught sight of Holly. She was standing next to a large tree wrapped in strings of popcorn and lights with dozens of presents underneath it! There were purple, red, blue, and green presents will all sorts of boughs and ribbons. Suddenly, Duck jumped out from behind the tree, shouting, "Merry Christmas, Crab!" in unison with Holly.

Tears sprung to Crab's eyes as he rushed forward to give his friends a bear hug. This would be one Christmas that he would never forget.

xxx When it speaks, it is a battlecry.
xxx When it breathes, it is a whisper.
xxx When it moves, every motion is a deliberate choice.
xxx And when it draws in its face close, eyes scrunched up in a squint, it’s not because it’s searching for something unknown, it’s waiting for something known to reveal itself.
xxx It waits and it waits. Each second to its name, a millenia to the life around it.
xxx It sits and it sits. Tail thrumming the tune of ancient civilizations that passed in a blink of an eye.
xxx Slowly, it lowers it’s gaze upon a new planet, a new life. A golden stare trained to follow the small life-form populating the surface of the new world just starting to break into its infancy.
xxx With trembling claws and delicate movements, it brings itself closer, almost clutching the sphere in its grasp before murmuring a noise most would not hear as anything more than the distant drone of the stars, and the sky.
xxx “How rare, and beautiful it is that you exist.”
xxx It's subtle but soft smile is visible to none, but itself. And for itself, its smile only widens, watching now from a greater distance as life expands.

Fireflies, the Night Lights of our world.
So small, so fragile, and yet so bright and so beautiful!! There glow is hard to not notice, especially when you're surrounded by nothing but cold darkness, even in places like that, these tiny little creatures continue to glow with a bright light of hope, with the forever reminder that even in the darkness there is still light and warmth.
