1391 [Supreme Wars: Act I] 32/?: Green Feather
-----
There was once a Gale Bird born with a dream, and he tried to follow through that dream as much as he could. Hatching from his egg, the first thing he saw was the bright sky and the wonderful of all of creation. As he grew up, he developed talents that many of his fellow birds lacked, his physical abilities were greater than his siblings, his magic was stronger, and his intellect was superb. However, he didn't drowned himself in selfishness. He began to work for his people.
He innovated new creations, stronger weapons, spears, armor suitable for birds that was both light and resistant to the blows of monsters, healing potions, and even developed alchemy and crafting to completely new levels. Despite the rules of the clan, he wanted it to raise once more and stop being just wild people living inside caves and catching bugs and small rabbits for their entire lives… He always thought there was something else in life, something greater that everybody must achieve, a dream.
He fought against the old Emperor because he was violating the rules of the clan, he had to defeat his own father in battle, but instead of killing him like any other bird would had done, he spared his life and decided to help him recover. He was a man with a strong sense of empathy, something that the Gale Birds had lost alongside their gracefulness and nobility.
It could be said that he was their hero, a hero that had not been born in many generations. Some even called this man the reincarnation of the Ancestor. He worked hard, building better nests inside the rocky mountain range, and even reestablishing an alliance with the Mountain Monkey Clan, allying the very old Mountain Monkey Emperor, and joining hands into improving their lives and overall, the lives of all the people in the forest.
He loved his country, the Grand Forest, and wanted to protect them and bring them to prosperity like never before. He even managed to convince many other Emperors in those times, and continued moving forward, as he once fell in love with his childhood friend, a valiant and knight-like Gale Bird woman, which he loved dearly.
The two love for one another culminated in a single egg, where an adorable chick hatched from, it was special compared to other chicks. While the Gale Birds coloration had slowly turned grayer as their wind attribute abilities continued to grow lesser with each generation, this chick was born with a completely green plumage, sign of being a strong creature with the blessing of a god of wind…
"My child… How beautiful you are… One day, I will show you everything we have built, and it shall be glorious… You're the motivation of my life… And I will keep working hard for you… I want… the best for you."
"Chirp, chirp…!"
"Haha, I don't think he understand you…"
"Ah… I suppose he doesn't yet… But I am sure that one day he will…"
Father and mother cuddled with their beloved chick, as the chick looked into the distance, much like his father, there was a whole world that it discovered by merely taking a peek outside. A beautiful world of wonders yet to be discovered.
The Gale Bird Emperor was born back then, but when he was not known as an Emperor, but just the son of the previous Emperor, his beloved father. Time went by as the years passed, the Rocky Mountain Range continued to be remodeled and the interior became more spacious, the monkeys and the gale birds cooperated to build a nation together, and everything was going great.
The Gale Bird Emperor of those times, and the old Mountain Monkey Emperor continued trying to recruit the other Monster Emperors form the other clans, but aside from the Salamander Empress and the Squirrel Empress, the rest were too aggressive and even isolationists to accept their ideas of unifying the entire grand forest once more…
The Gale Bird Emperor who back then was only known as Green Feather, glanced as his father and his mother raised a beautiful world around him, and he met many wonderful people as he grew up, being filled with praise by many people and even his parents for his amazing magic talent and speed, he was slowly building his reputation as a "prince" even, and he liked that title very much…
"Papa! Papa! I want you to teach me more magic! I-I think I can learn way more! I want to be like you one day! I want to help everybody in the forest! I-I will become a hero!"
"My son… Of course, come. I will teach you everything I know, you're the future of our clan…"
Green Feather learned many important things from his father, and even life lessons that marked his growth as a person. When he reached young adult stage, he had become an honorable young man with a heroic personality. He flew around the forest beating any evildoer and protecting the innocent. Of course, such protection only extended to the intelligent monster clans, as the other monsters were considered as "beasts" and not "people" due to their lack of intelligence.
He was growing stronger every year, and he would one day become the new Emperor as his father grew older alongside his mother… The future was bright, and every day he soared the skies he was always inspired about going out of the forest, to meet new people and make new friends, but always remembered his father's words: "Never go outside the Grand Forest, before that, we must secure a friendship relationship with humans. Until then, they'll try to hunt you because they'll think you're a monster… Be careful, Green Feather.", and because he remembered such things, he never flew outside and always came back to his nest to have lunch with his family and his little sister, who had been born a year ago in those times…
However, today was a different day, the clean sky slowly turned cloudy, filled with dark clouds, and rain began to pour like never ever before… Green Feather suddenly had a strange feeling, and flew directly back to his nest… Only to find a shocking scene.
