ACT I-The Outcast of Eldoria
Kieran is born during a rare celestial event, the Night of the Hollow Moon. His red eyes and black hair terrify the villagers. His parents die mysteriously shortly after, further fueling rumors that he's a harbinger of doom.
Raised by an old hermit outside the village walls (a quiet but wise figure named Gareth), Kieran learns survival, swordsmanship, and old lore—Gareth suspects there's more to the Voidborne legend than the villagers know.
Kieran is relentlessly bullied, especially by the children of village leaders. They give him cruel nicknames like "Voidspawn" or "Blight." At age 16, he's falsely accused of a minor fire and nearly exiled.
Despite this, he saves a child from a forest beast—earning a few villagers' silent respect, but the fear remains.
At 18, after a brutal public humiliation during a harvest festival, Kieran decides to leave Eldoria and become an adventurer. He joins the Adventurer's Guild in the capital of Caldrath, a walled city 5km from Eldoria.
ACT II – The Fire and the Shadow
Kieran takes on dangerous missions others avoid—undead-infested ruins, cursed woods, ancient ruins. He earns a reputation for surviving the impossible.
But rumors follow him. People fear he's using dark magic or that his missions succeed because evil things "listen" to him.
"Allies and Enemies"
He meets several key figures:
eren, a fiery ex-paladin who distrusts him but eventually becomes his closest ally.
Vaelric, a scholar obsessed with Voidborne lore who believes Kieran is a key to unlocking forbidden knowledge.
Captain Maren, a soldier from Caldrath who views Kieran as a potential threat to the kingdom.
Kieran is challenged not only by monsters but by politics, prejudice, and betrayal.
Kieran begins having visions—ancient cities swallowed by darkness, whispers from the stars, and glimpses of a void-wrapped creature awakening deep below the earth.
Then A hidden sect, The Black Sigil, tries to recruit him, claiming he is their "Awakened Herald." He refuses.
" A Glimpse of Truth"
Kieran discovers a hidden temple beneath a ruined city. Inside is a mural depicting a hero with red eyes fighting off a world-ending force.
He realizes the Voidborne were guardians against The Hollow Star, a cosmic entity imprisoned long ago. His power is not evil—but ancient and feared because it's misunderstood.
ACT III – Ashes and Rebirth
" The Return to Eldoria"
At 21, after an attack from the Black Sigil nearly kills him, Kieran returns to Eldoria—wounded and weary.
The villagers are terrified. Some beg him to leave. Others secretly hope he can save them after strange things start happening: animals going mad, people disappearing in the woods, the sun dimming at noon.
"The Hollow Star Awakens"
The cosmic entity Kieran saw in visions stirs beneath the land, and the Black Sigil begins its final ritual to free it.
Caldrath refuses to believe the threat, fearing panic and political chaos.
"Final Stand"
Kieran, Seren, Gareth (revealed to be a former Voidborne guardian), and a few allies prepare to defend Eldoria.
The final battle occurs in the ruined sanctum deep beneath Eldoria, where Kieran must fully embrace his power—not to control it, but to become it.
"Climax"
Kieran sacrifices part of his humanity to contain the Hollow Star, locking it away in the void at the cost of being forever changed.
The villagers witness the truth: Kieran was never cursed—he was their shield.
"Epilogue"
Eldoria slowly changes. Some still fear him, but others now leave offerings at the edge of the forest in his honor.
Kieran leaves again—not to run, but to walk the path of a true guardian. His legend, once feared, becomes whispered in reverence across the land.
