Kaelorn, the Song of the Shattered Horizon 

Kaelorn no longer soars above the rocky peaks of the mountains, but along the shores where the clouds kiss the sea.
When sailors hear a song rising from the waves amid a storm, they know it is him — the echo of pride that sought to reach the Sun and fell into the water.

His wings, torn by lightning, mirror the gleam of thunder across the ocean, and his voice blends with the roar of the waves.
He no longer seeks to ascend; now he watches the horizon, mourning the flight that carried him beyond forgiveness.

The seafarers both fear and revere him; they say his song heralds tempests, yet also guides lost ships back to the coast.
For some, he is the wind’s punishment.
For others, the sea’s final mercy.
