A feather-shaped star streaks across the darkness, leaving a trail ethereal light in its wake. It seems like there were a black mist, inky and thick, coils around the star like a malevolent serpent, dimming its brilliant light as it swirled and twisted in the cosmic void. As the star gently reaches the ground, a shape of a human toddler appears to be lying on the ground, his eyes closed peacefully.
Some minutes later, the toddler slowly opens his eyes. He seems to find himself sitting in the middle nowhere and there where sand everywhere. As the sun crests the horizon, its warm, golden light bathes the Isle of Dawn in a soft, ethereal glow. He sits up from his laying down position, looking around the environment in curiosity.
"Uwaa?" his tiny voice rose enthusiasm, still gazing around. He tried standing up by himself, but eventually he did not have enough strength to do that.
Just then, a man with a dark purple hat is passing nearby coincidentally, he seems to be searching for something, but with a calm expression on his face, just like a wanderer on a perpetual journey through the vast tapestry of the world, and their eyes held the wisdom of distant horizons.
As he stands in the midst of the peaceful Isle, a rush of relief and triumph surged through him, as he gazed at what he had found. "Ah, I found you", he walks towards the little toddler, bends down and stares at him with a reassuring smile. The little boy stares at him as well, and the dark birthmark on his left eye area seems to be showing his unusual identity. The man then picks him up, holding him up with both of his hands.
"Let's go now", the man carries him on his arms, as the soft, golden rays of the setting sun, bathed their back in a warm, ethereal glow. He then walks away with the toddler, peacefully, as if he knew all these will happen.
Meanwhile, somewhere in Hidden Forest, a place where heavy rain fell from the sky, there's a cozy little house where Lareth and his daughter, Hemera, lives in. Just like other family, they are also preparing their dinner, while in a sudden, they hear a knock on their door of their house. Lareth walks towards the door and opens it in curiousity, and he found out it is his friend, Carl, while there's a little toddler sleeping peacefully between his arms. Hemera can't hear what they're talking about, but she knows, she's going to have a new little brother.
It seems like a few years had passed, as little toddler had grown into a child, and he had learnt how to walk and even talk. His eyes shone with a gleam of wonder, and his boundless energy propelled them forward on a quest for knowledge. Even a little butterfly that is resting on the top of a flower can even take him a half day to investigate on.
"Andrew!" a sudden call from his older sister, Hemera, interrupts him from staring at the butterfly.
"Big sis..." Andrew pouts, obviously that he was unhappy about being interrupted.
"There you are you! I was finding for you everywhere!" Hemera giggles playfully as she picks up Andrew like a teddy bear. "It's time to go back now, dad is calling us back for dinner."
"Okay..."
